Huh?

McElroy just said Mullen to be announced in the next 48 hours

Limp noodle

Announced to do what?

This argument is so awful. Just stop. So Saban is worse than mediocre because he had a worse record in the NFL and lost to Gruden head to head?

Stop being ridiculous.

Saban was ridiculously successful in college pre-NFL.

 

[Volwark]

Jim Mora won 11 games and went to an NFC championship game more recently than Gruden did. He sure was a HR for UCLA wasn’t he?

"More recent" doesn't really matter, cause Gruden hasn't been coaching.

Let's not pretend that Gruden hasn't been out of football for 10 years. And of course before you say anything about that, I have two words for you: Dick Vermeil.

 

[Playdo]

I don't like to do this but my sources have told me announcement could be any day. If not Sunday or Monday, could be Tuesday or Wednesday. After that, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are all possibilities.

Yes, but which plane of existence wiseguy

 

[chavisut]

You can make fun but I’m thinking it’s going to be Sunday based off what Larry said. If you are UT and you want to give media a heads up for Sunday then you gotta do it ahead of time. They don’t need a heads up for weekdays. But dont wanna tip hand so say “be ready Sunday just in case.”

Sunday was first day I mentioned.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Announced to do what?

Return to Starkville.

Currie would not be caught dead hiring that pretender.

Where? For us?

 

[BeecherVol]

Announced to do what?

Hopefully a raise and extension

I’m sticking with Tuesday because that’s what I’ve predicted from the start. 11/28 Gruden.

11/26 Petersen would be insane though.

I was just saying that Larry’s nugget still has value. Even though he weakened it with his clarification.

 

[Nashvegas31]

If it is Mullen then Currie did a poor job of letting the grumors officially die a few days before.

Peterson type hire can easily overcome Grumors still being alive. Most others can't without it being squashed.

Why hasn’t Gruden been coaching? Is that not a red flag?

 

[BigZiti09]

I didnt read it.

Yes you did. You made fun of it.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Announced to do what?

Receive a raise and extension from MSU.

 

[BigZiti09]

Cause he gets paid like a coach to do something easier with more job security and less work.

If it’s Mullen, the whole process was poor

I’ve mentioned this before, but will again...does anyone think Larry is being used as part of the misinformation campaign?

 

[RockyTop85]

If it were Mullen I would think it would be out already. He’s going to have to start telling people. Another AD would know who has no reason to keep it wrapped up.

What date though?

Quite possible

 

[volfanCLT]

Cause he gets paid like a coach to do something easier with more job security and less work.

That’s the characteristics you want in your football coach?

 

[Nashvegas31]

Jim Mora won 11 games and went to an NFC championship game more recently than Gruden did. He sure was a HR for UCLA wasn’t he?

Mora should have waited for a HC spot in this region where his home base was near ATL. It would have helped that transition. He tried a few times as I think he found that out a a year or so in when he tossed his name into our searches in past. I also think his pro style would have fit better here where he could have had stronger defense

 

[chavisut]

Yes you did. You made fun of it.

I legitamately did not. I wasn't poking fun at any specific post.

I don't read Larry's post.

Unless I do.
