A&M has so much money, they could disrupt the coaching carousel as they please

Agree and hope they keep making bad hires.

Are they even going to make the FCS playoffs ?

UAlbany got a 1st round bye in the FCS playoffs and I don't think their coach would ever be considered for a P5 job.

The FCS playoffs started today. Holy Cross didn't make the cut.

People on the Chesney train are convinced he's Lance Leipold for some reason. His resume isn't even close. I don't get it

Not sure if anyone noticed this but Mullen’s instagram was just an image of the ESPN logo. Not sure if this means anything or if it’s him reaffirming his commitment to being at ESPN?

Nope. Sure makes sense to me. We can’t even hire the guy who wins the who cares league.

That was me because everyone was checking flights last night. I said in the morning but it could have been anytime today. I’m more than 100% sure the plan was for him to be here today/tonight. It appears he canceled, we canceled, it was mutually canceled, he couldn’t get out of his espn commitment or whatever.

Is this a “hes not coming anymore” or just “things were delayed for an unknown reason” today? Or just a “no idea what’s happening on this front” right now?

Made it last year. Won their first game then lost to the #1 team in the quarters or semis.

No idea

 

[phil77]

In theory he could still come tonight after his work day is over at ESPN

I’ll share what I know about flying private with the school. They mainly do all of their flying with wheels up. The two planes that wheels up uses is a King Air and Citation. This is not a plane wheels up uses.

Took me a minute until I realized Wheels Up is a company.

[sufan59]

How much does an uber cost or can you get an uber from Bristol to Syracuse?

 

[Libero2]

No idea

Nothing to do but wait I guess.

You follow Dan Mullen on Snapchat? Dan Mullen is on Snapchat?

 

[Dinkyspond]

You’ve got one problem with that theory - Jane Fonda wasn’t in Clue.

That's right, duh I'm thinking of "Klute"

 

[Irt4su]

This damn thread has me convinced Mullen was coming last night. Now it has me main lining heroin depressed we are a step up from holy cross

 

[PhatOrange]

Agreed. That’s I why I think you may need to win more at that level. There are a lot FCS teams who win a lot.

 

[Crusty]

At some point money talks. I doubt ADJW has a completely blank check and Mullen may be moving the goalpost from his original ask for all we know. Not to be one of those condescending posters who love to lecture about how negotiating is done but everyone has a number they won’t cross on either side.


Not that I know anything but my best guess Is Cuse gave Mullen a best and final offer and Mullen is mulling it over. While he is mulling it over… Cuse is smartly interviewing Chesney in case Mullen says no to best and final. One way or another we will find out next week or we will see new names in the rumor mill from Thamel.

More or less how I see it as well. But might not be a final offer as there really are many issues to tie down, many of which may be trade-offs. May have a deal in principle to consider.
