The pressure seems to already be getting to Mullen.

He is acting a little differently with the media over there. That said, the media here in MS is all olemiss pretty much, so I don’t know if he stuck his nose up at them because they were olemiss or because they were po dunk MS. I just feel like he thought he was better than MSU.

Maybe the AR-15 self identified as a textbook and that's how it was ok.

"Our players are allowed to HAVE weapons, just not in close proximity of them while an armed robbery is occurring." - Dan Mullen, Head football Coach/Tim Tebow creator for Univ of Florida

It's just an easy answer. "Don't be stupid with a gun. If you are - you are off the team".

This is Mullens attempt at appearing firm, while leaving a loophole in case a star athlete gets caught in a less than cut and dried situation.

I agree with him, it's just common sense. People trying to criticize him are just being agitators. You can't dictate that people can't have guns. Keep the guns off campus is probably the policy, aren't most campuses gun-free zones? I don't understand why he has to explain this to people, who are mainly just attempting to be argumentative.

Because there is a difference between what is legal and what is permissible on a team due to policy. Same thing goes at other places. Kid can't be arrested or prosecuted for legally carrying a weapon, but he can damn sure be kicked off a football team for violating team policies/rules.

We have freedom of speech in this country. Do you suppose if an athlete came up to one of his coaches off-campus and told him to 17 off, that kid wouldn't or shouldn't be subject to being booted from the team? That kid couldn't be arrested for it, but there's a damn good chance he'd be kicked off the team and lose his scholarship.

Good point, to many people confuse freedom of speech with freedom from consequences. Same for a gun. It's probably fine to have a 30-06 to hunt a few days with during the week as long as it's off campus. You get arrested for acting a fool or a dui and you have a loaded glock in your possession. Free to have a gun, not free to irresponsibiliy be a dumbass with one in your possession. That's the common sense approach most coaches should take, especially in the south or other rural colleges.

Spoken like a Godfather.

 

[RocketDawg]

I actually agree with you. He merely said that his players are allowed to have guns (reading between the lines, they're allowed to if they're otherwise not prohibited to, but he can't say that), they just can't have them at school. Makes perfect sense to me.

I laughed. Take your Benedict.
