Done deal.

He left us in a better place than he found us, and for that we should be appreciative.

We won't have Kevin Wilson saying "No one can win there" this time around.

I don’t mind that he’s leaving. I wish he were staying but I get that sometimes you need a change of scenery. And I remember him saying early on that it’s hard for a coach to stay at one place longer than 10 years or so.

What I do hate is that he’s leaving for another SEC school. That sucks.

Glanced over at the Florida boards, and the fans are pissed about getting Mullen. He's walking into a hostile environment.

Ha if true we about to get paid by Florida and Dan deserves the **** show he will be walking into. We need to take every bit of his buyout and throw it at the next coach and pay TG to stay.

And I will fight anyone IRL who white knights for Strik from here on out.

I can't be mad at Dan for taking this opportunity. I will be mad at Stricklin.

He's a ******* alumni, and this is taking a hatchet to our program.

Not sure if true, but it has been reported that Merlinz buyout is a paltry amount.

Why would they be “negotiating it” if it was a paltry amount. It’s not listed anywhere so no one knows the $ amount except for Cohen, Keenum, Mullen and Sexton.

So much THIS.

I wasn't mad when the Ninja left. He wasn't one of ours, though we loved him. Even if he hires away one of our coaches to Bama I won't be upset.

Stricklin rode so much of Byrne's success and parlayed it into a bigger gig. Now he's pillaging his Alma Mater. I hope he can never get a warm meal in Oktibbeha County again.

Don't underestimate the appeal of year round shorts weather. It's not all about money.

It is just like I expect when I use my “WE ARE MSSTATE” mindset.

1. Rivals have terrible season
2. Rivals about to get punished significantly by the NCAA
3. Rivals hurt our starting QB
4. Rivals win matchup
5. Great recruiting class lined up and much of the 8-4 team returning
6. Head coach leaves us to work for one of our alumni / former AD right when we could make a major leap forward as a program

I will wish Mullen well and all but the timing of this sucks. At least our next coach will be walking into an easier than normal situation with OM down.

What coach is going to sign on to a school without knowing who the new head coach is going to be?

This is all great because not one legit source has said anything and all evidence points to the exact opposite.

In times like this it helps to remember:
Despite all assurances to the contrary...Lucy never actually lets Charlie Brown kick the football. Ever.

It's funny how it all works out, isn't It? I'm genuinely beginning to think that Davis Wade really is built on an Indian burial ground.

The coaching dominoes are starting to fall in the SEC, as Florida is working on a deal to hire Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen, while Tennessee has focused on hiring Ohio State assistant head coach/defensive coordinator Greg Schiano. https://t.co/FtGAxBcD1Q— Mark Schlabach (@Mark_Schlabach) November 26, 2017

The way this week has gone.....

I fully expect the NCAA to issue an apology to OM this week. Would not surprise me in the least.
