"He's reached his ceiling at MSU"

[57stratdawg]

That is ******** to me.

First off, if you win the Egg Bowl, you could be in your second consecutive Big 6 game.

If you lose the Egg Bowl, it'll be the second straight year you've finished the season with a L to the most comparable program in your division. One loss potentially costing you a Playoff birth and the second loss potentially costing you the Sugar Bowl.

So, playing in NYD Bowl games and for the CFBPO is the ceiling? Is that suppose to be a problem? I think Franklin reached a ceiling an 8-4 ceiling at Vandy, but that's not the same thing we've done the last two years at MSU.

Happy Thanksgiving shitheads.

What is this in reference to? Nafoom?

This morning I asked myself, "Self, how long until someone posts 'Has Mullen reached his ceiling at MSU?'"

Rite on Q.

 

[engie]

National media pumping Mullen for every open job.

Yeah -- we reached the "ceiling" -- and it was enough to pay for a national title with a few breaks...

I'm not seeing this supposed rebuild next year either, depending on what the juniors actually end up doing. If they were to come back, the sky would be the limit IMO. Just have to fix the run game, find a couple corners to step up, develop more depth on the DL, and let's roll.

Im trying to figure out where it was established that dan wants out.

I heard a message board poster quoted a couple of message board EXPERTS that he was talking to agents. That falls a bit short of establishing the fact.

 

[57stratdawg]

Agreed. I think the offense could easily replicate the 2015 offensive production understanding we're picking up BYU OOC.

No doubt about D next year. Amazing that we lose the best QB in school history and I'm more concerned about CB and DL than QB next year.

Remember, this was with a team predicted by EVERY SPORTS RAG for us to finish dead last in the SEC West!

Yeah, there's no rebuild next year. The depth chart alone says that. We go back to being a 50/50 offense, figure out if Williams or Lee is our stud back, shore up the cornerbacks, and starting talking about 8+ wins again.
I do think Chris Jones is probably worth a win's difference in record if he stays, so here's hoping...
If he does stay, the reality of the situation is when you look at Saturday's lineup we'll have to replace 3 starters on offense (only Dak, Malone, Wilson since we all know Jenkins is now the better tackle), and 3 on defense (Ryan Brown, Calhoun, and Jackson).

Jones goes barring some injury. Maybe gone with one. Not worth your time speculating

 

[SheltonChoked]

I don't agree, but even if it is true, how is this a bad thing . A win vs ole miss is 2nd in the And in a Big 6 bowl. If all he ever does is keep us in a rotation of bowls like the Orange, Sugar, Fiesta, Rose, Cotton, and Peach, I don't see the issue. That's a top 15 team every year.

 

[Sandman.sixpack]

That is ******** to me.

I agree. Future is bright! QB position will not be as good without Dak, but our O Line will be a lot stronger, etc. Every year is a different team. We've recruited well and are putting together another solid class, especially if/when we add Jeffrey Simmons and AJ Brown to it.

Dan sets his own ceiling and I promise he has not met it yet!
