Could be true, but might not. If Mullen is still here after the coaching merry go round this season, he will probably be here for a very long time. And Bruce should be reminded of his
"From what he knows" comment. So easy to throw out such ambiguous comments.

Amazing....
Just amazing how this stuff suddenly blows up during Egg Bowl week. You think Mullen is going around and telling people that he's interested in leaving MSU before a game this important? I'm almost positive where most of this garbage is starting, and the talking heads that are running with it are either dumb as 17 or they just hate State.

Miami has a loooong way to go to be competitive again. Their facilities are not good, not good at all. Also, Al Golden made $2.5M last year. I think in order to get Mullen's attention that will need to double.
Not saying it can't or won't happen, but it's not a better job right now, other than an easier schedule every year.

Mullen is desirable to other universities. MSU fans can't start the same rumors about Freeze because no school other than one buried in Old South beliefs and traditions would want him. And I doubt his recruiting tactics would fly anywhere else other than this immediate area (assuming he gets them without rumored payouts).
Dan may leave, but I highly doubt it. He hasn't accomplished all his goals yet (to win championships), and he says he came here to do just that. And when and if he does that, I don't think he'll leave even then. Most schools won't pay him more, and even if they do we'll match them I would think. Attendance and the accompanying expenditures have increased about 50% under his tenure, so he's brought in a lot more than the university pays him. We can afford to pay him what we need to.

Miami fans don't support their football program all that well. Several years ago they were highly ranked (I think #1) and photos of the stadium showed it to be way less than half full. Davis Wade is full for almost every home game. I only remember one game when there were a few vacancies in the upper decks.
Outperform expert predictions every year and this is what happens.......every year! If they keep saying it enough one year they may be right.......
I agree with you, but there is a lot of talk that Mullen wants out of town. Not necessarily that he wants so-and-so job. Could be kind of telling?
We'll just have to see how it plays out.

Come on guys, figure it out! "Murllenz is leaving for ____."
The Media always says that---it is their "shtick".
That is why when Muammar Gaddafi was killed I said, "Murllenz to Libya!!!"

Mullen may very well leave. Who knows... That said, Feldman is denying on Twitter that he said he could go to Pitt. He must forget that searching the Internet is easy.

Miami is a TERRIBLE job. The only reason they have ever been competitive is cheating, and they are really bad at that.
That talk must be new. All I've heard is that he and his wife really like Starkville, to the point that she had her parents to move there also.
That is what's getting me: the sudden "Mullen WANTS out". I don't have anyone very deep inside MSU's football program, but I talk to a lot of people that I consider much more "in the know" than me, and literally the only other thing I've seen about Mullen WANTING out is on ED and was started by a certain poster with the username that rhymes with Roach Birdy Pour. Further, do you really think Mullen is just going around flapping his gums about wanting out before the season is over?
I'm not saying he's not leaving, in fact I expect him to at some point (maybe even this year), but all of this crap getting spread all of a sudden just seems fishy to me. Very fishy.

Is this a "Hey, look at me" moment? He may or may not leave, but the media has shat on him and the program since Bama last year. I don't know who is fanning the flame, but it looks fake.
If it is Dan beginning for attention, it makes me feel better about the Egg Bowl.

Coach has the emotional intelligence or a junior high kid. He used to be in love with the guy now he hates him for some reason. "In Mullen we trust" to "Dan Walsh" in two weeks. Now he's trolling his own message board. Dude is cray.

His latest is Dansbury. And I think you've insulted the intelligence of junior high kids.
This is the one aspect that worries me a little bit.
I remember very early on in his career here Dan saying something along the lines of "you really can't expect to be effective at one place for more than 10 years or so. Fans get tired of you, your ideas grow stale." We're finishing up year 7, so we're closing in on the number he threw out way back when.
Now people obviously can change their mind on ideas like that, especially once they've established a good thing. But if he still holds that belief then now would be a time where he could be looking to make a play.

Well, some years ago, possibly after Dan's first year, when Finebaum was still at WJOX in Birmingham, and nobody outside the State of Alabama knew who he was, I was listening in my car one afternoon during the holidays and Finebaum made the statement that he knew for a fact that Dan Mullen would crawl on his hands and knees to get out of Starkville.
Glad I didn't hold my breath waiting for that to happen.
Getting *** Raped by Saban is probably starting to get to Mrs Mullen. Her finger just doesn't get it done anymore.
Yeah, that was very bannable. I don't really mind them coming here and talking smack, but this one is a bit over the top.
For God's sake. He has received everything he asked for. He has expanded our stadium. He has his own football facility. Why the hell would he want out of anywhere that gives him everything he wants. Sounds like Feldman needs to stop talking to his OM goons.
