Ah yeah haven’t heard much about that. Guess between that and fuggin a shark it’s time to go.
OT: Poll - Who will be the first SEC Coach to be fired
- Thread starter MomentInTheSun
- Start date
Both that and Sumlin’s note seemed a little iffy. Seems hard to prove that it was a lie, but I can see them wanting him gone for performance and using that reasoning to reduce buyout
Still got to be more to the story though if they think they can fire him with cause. Hopefully some juicy details come out
The ticker on ESPN is saying that coach Mac situation is all about lying about the death threats. Would be hilarious if he gets canned with no buyout for such a stupid lie
Incredible fortune for UF if they can pull that off. Why can’t Gus do something equally stupid and save us some bucks.
Coach Mac said in a press conference this week that he’s been receiving death threats to him and his family. School released a statement saying that they offered to help coach investigate these them and he could offer zero details or evidence of the threats and also wouldn’t call the police. Hence, he made it all up
Kinda dirty by UF admin IMO, but I guess it’s a “wolf” move so I’m jealous anyway
I mean, Mac comes across as some aww shucks nice guy, but he’s had a qb kicked off the team for steroids and had 7-8 kids suspended/kicked off the team this year for felony credit card theft or something. There is something up with him and these death threat lies just add to the rest of it. Oh, and he sucks.
Oh I’m not saying he didn’t need to be fired. Just their way of working around the buyout seems sketch
Looks like none of us got it right, but I’m proud of myself for at least putting him on the list.
Butch and Burt are most definitely next
Too bad there was no nose picking, junk shifting, second half collapsing clauses he would have destroyed.
I voted Sumlin in this thread. Crazy that the season isn't over and it's announced he will be fired and I was still way off.
So Butch, Mac, Sumlin, and most likely Bert all getting canned this year. And if Mullen leaves for UT, that’ll add even more shakeup to the conference.
If UF gets chip and Tennessee gets Mullen, then the East will most definitely take over the West in just a few years.

I could see Chip getting in play at TAMU. I get the sense UF is gonna botch it with Chip. Crazy coaching carousel this year.
If i were a coach like Chip and had an option of UCLA or any school in SEC, i would take UCLA. Just seems like you would have a lot less hassle with the admin and with insane boosters.
not to mention the ability to recruit nationally

I don't think Mullen would do well at UTe. He has a worse record in SEC play than Butch, and UTe doesn't quite recruit itself anymore. I think he might would do better than Butch has, but I don't think he gets them back to competing for championships. You are going to need talent to beat UGA and UF and that is his weakest point.
You'd need to make more
I agree, great coach but needs to be at a school with a built in recruiting advantage.
But would you? I mean he's got all that NFL money and if he has a good agent he's gonna get paid well...bet Gus would take less to not have to deal with all the shit he does on the Plains
Right, if he ended up at a school like LSU or UF then watch out. He doesn't scare me at UTe.
Looking more and more like Chip will be heading out to UCLA. UF really fugged this up if true
Gonna be hilarious if Tennessee whiffs on all their targets
Mullen has no reason to go to Tennessee. This is all a power-play. If UCLA or UF comes calling he's gone but he's not going to a program that is at best equal with where MSU is right now.
I fully expect to see him on the Gators’ sideline next fall. He’d be hell down there with a staff loaded with top notch cruiters...
I do too. I think the Chip Kelly thing might be Stricklin throwing some misdirection around. Mullen makes much more sense when given UF recruiting territory and a much larger budget for assistants and bagmen. He gives a shit about defense and knows the SEC landscape. Heckuva lot cheaper than Kelly will be as well.
I think Chip ends up at UCLA.
I can see the arguments for both but I think UF hires Scott Frost before they hire Mullen
I'd be very surprised if Mullen went to UF. When Striklin left, they were not on good terms and Foley hates Mullen.
True, but they need a good football coach and sometimes better the devil you know.
I think there's a way higher chance that Mullen is in knoxville next year than him being in Gainsville. He's been trying to get out of Starkville every year and he'd take the UT job in a heartbeat.
