Dan Mullen

[OrangeXtreme]

Just realized he was a GA at Syracuse in 1998.

Did you know that Coach P was a special assistant to Mullen at Florida in 2021.

 

[BVille44]

Yes, just west of Philadelphia. Maybe he has family in NH though….

Not sure Mullen still has family in NH but he attended Trinity High Schoolof Manchester, New Hampshire.

If it’s Mullen you’d think it would be announced after Saturday at the earliest. Can’t see it being this week with him calling a game Saturday.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I’ll say this. It’s confirmed he was in cuse yesterday. And it’s confirmed he’s the official leader as of right this second. Not an opinion. Not a hunch. It’s a 3 horse race - Mullen, Chesney and Tony White. However, white only has the backing of one huge donor and he wants the SDSU job. The fear of Chesney is no P5.

But yes Dan Frickin Mullen is on the verge of being the cuse football coach from what I am told. Hear he has a long list of requests but he knows what it takes. Fingers crossed

Have all three on staff. That would be wild.

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like we should have a new coach by the end of the weekend. I hope vetting doesn’t take a week.

I hope the school steps up and do what is necessary. The school might be kicking themselves right now with no Adam W. This would have been a perfect spot to have him involved. But there’s a lot of people that believe he will be the next coach. We’ll see. Anything can happen and I’ve learned sharing info the hard way on here, but I for one did not think getting him was possible. So I’m excited to even share that they are more than just in the mix

If Dan Mullen is the coach of this team, I’ll shotgun a beer at the first hole of the next board golf outing. Would be a 10/10 hire.

Won’t you do that anyway?

 

[sutomcat]

Not sure Mullen still has family in NH but he attended Trinity High Schoolof Manchester, New Hampshire.

He was born just outside Philly. Not sure when his family moved.

But when he was fired by Florida in 2021, a newspaper article said he was a native of Londonderry, NH.

We need more info on this….

 

[JackBauer44]

Won’t you do that anyway?

Shhhh. It’s just another excuse to do it.

 

[GoSU96]

Did you know that Coach P was a special assistant to Mullen at Florida in 2021.

And P was here a couple of weeks ago for Freeney. I’m sure this scenario was discussed. How cool would if P had the same role here.

So you’re saying we could still end up with some position coach we’ve never heard of?

If they announce Dan Mullen, I'll add a ticket to my seasons next year

 

[Bulldog04]

Yes of course but as of right now, there’s a leader and I will absolutely be excited about it as we all should be.

 

[Toga]

And then pay Chesney $1.2M to be ST coach and recruiting coordinator. Four times what he's making now. Half serious.

Hell, throw in title of Associate HC and make it $1.5M. I know it's a pipedream but it sets him up great for a future P4 HC job. Obviously has the HC experience and now would have P4 experience as Associate HC and recruiting coordinator.
Putting myself in timeout now.

I’m just joking around, partially to not get my hopes up. Appreciate the inside info.

They hire Dan Mullen and they brought me back in. 4 season tickets

 

[richmondcuse03]

It would have been very easy for Mullen and others to backchannel to JW through ESPN. They were also both at Va Tech game and that sealed Dino’s fate with many.

It would def drive donations too. Folks will want to increase their priority for the reseating. Would be a big buzz.

Not that I don’t believe you but who confirmed that he was in Syracuse yesterday?

 

[phil77]

Oh man so fired up now. Please please make this happen

 

[JackBauer44]

Feeding off speculation.

I hope he would bring some former staff members with him. John Hevesy would be a great OL hire.

 

[qdawgg]

It would have been very easy for Mullen and others to backchannel to JW through ESPN. They were also both at Va Tech game and that sealed Dino’s fate with many.

At this point, DB could still be back next year. If he is, next years schedule should easily get him to a bowl game. That means he could then be back at least another year after that. So until he’s gone and we know SU is literally making calls and talking to people. None of this matters nor do we know that we will or won’t contact Mullen. JW was at the game Mullen was announcing. For all we know he’s already been loosely interviewed.

I did write this on the 16th I think. Not that I know anything but seemed like it wasn’t a far fetched thought.
