Dear Scott,

Thanks for lacking the balls to deal with Mullen last year when he wanted out and you said no. Thanks for screwing at least 9 people out of $18,000 a piece to watch this cluster17 from the shaded confines of their very own DWS cabanas. Thanks for not only leaving us with an AD with no experience but having now possibly screwed our baseball team over as much as you did our football team. Thanks for making me look at that gawd Aweful Hail State in an end zone that should read "Bulldogs". i hope your time in Gainesville is long and you do half as much damage to Florida as you have done in Starkville.

Yours Truly,
Pissed-Off Bulldogs

HaHa. I'm growing on you. That is the only thing you picked out to complain about. Or maybe you are just as pissed and see the light.

Why do you think the cabanas were such a terrible idea? Obviously the people who bought them though they were great ... they paid for them willingly. And they were sold in a hurry so there must have been more than 9 who would want one. Would those folks still have been screwed if we were 7-0 right now?

Because they are pop up tents.... With drapes... And 9 people(s) ponied up $18,000.... For pop up tents....with drapes.... Actual MSU supporters, possibly with an education, spent $18,000 on pop up tents.... With drapes!!!

Yeah, but they knew what they were getting. I certainly wouldn't pay $18000 for a popup tent in the end zone (even with the drapes), but apparently some were eager to.

I never had an issue with him leaving for a more prestigious job or more money. For me the concerning part of this story is that his degree does say Mississippi State University.

Thanks Cochise. You are a great fan and always maintain a positive outlook. Honestly, we are all on this planet for such a short time, why not smile and be happy right?

I'm having a great time this year watching Mullen work through this adversity. It's interesting to me to see what he does. I like the move to the young guys and think that's going to really beneficial in 2017 and ESPECIALLY 2018. If the O Line and D Backs develop over the next 18 months or so we're going to be really really good in '18.

Hang in there, smile, have fun, life is good!

the many people that spend +10k for a family of 4 to sit in club level seats? Those are just plastic chairs bolted to concrete right?

Correct me if I'm wrong...but when the cabana news first came out,

didn't someone break down the costs per seat/ticket per game for a typical 7 game home game season? I don't remember the number but I remember it being VERY reasonable. If you had a large family or large group that all wanted to sit together, i.e. Take the tailgate inside, it seemed like a pretty damn good deal and a great idea.

Correct. You got 12 tickets plus access to the scoreboard club. If you wanted 12 seats in the club level you'd pay considerably more for the per seat donation plus have to buy the tickets.

My point was not to say the cabanas were a dumb idea. I was more or less pointing out that Scott is getting the hell out of town before all the big money spenders get a chance to hold him accountable for the on-the-field shitshow he sold them.

And technically, you can't even see the game/cluster17 from the $18k cabanas, so...

Don't know him, but we have some close mutual friends. I know he's a good guy, and he was an outstanding AD for us. But I tend to share your sentiment. He left us for another school in our own conference. And he left us hanging at what could be a pretty critical time, since it looks like it may be 50-50 that we may need to hire a football coach in December.

Hoss, did Scott steal your lady at a dance 30 years ago? Kick your dog, TP your lawn, give you a wedgie, make fun of your top button undone...? Why so much animosity?

I get disappointment, & a little bit of anger/resentment, but you seem to have a personal vendetta against the man.

Have a Blue Moon or 12. Relax. I'm told Hemorrhoids are a *****.
