AgreedYeah exactly. It’s too random of a thing to bring up twice in as many days. That was a complete set up by Barrie

Thinking this through logically, there are a few possible situations right?Either is mega troll or they all know and just having fun with Dan
I’m learning how the sausage is made, and I don’t like itMay all of us have a hype man like Matt Barrie.
And while he is an Arizona State grad, guess who he is repped by (bonus if you know who helped sign his ESPN extension in 2022.)
Totally agree. If it wasn’t finalized I can’t imagine they’d be joking about it.Thinking this through logically, there are a few possible situations right?
1. Mullen is the guy - they're joking around with him a bit and trolling us. Fair enough I guess.
2. Mullen is not the guy - they're joking about the rumors. Kind of mean to him if he wanted the job.
3. Mullen was never interested or in the mix - they're joking about the rumors. Fair enough, but reputable posters confirm he was on campus right? (I haven't read the entire thread.)
4. Mullen is in the mix and it's not finalized - I'm pretty sure they'd be keeping their mouths shut.
So if my logic is sound, he's either the guy or he was never interested.
Well if that’s the caseBarrie and Mullen are reading this thread on commercial break lol
If Barrie is trolling us? He's dead to me... lolMay all of us have a hype man like Matt Barrie.

I think the exact opposite. I think because there is legs, that’s why they are having fun. He is teasing a colleague because he knows he can’t say anything on the air no matter if it’s true or notI don’t know. I gotta think if there were legs to this, they wouldn’t be having so much fun with it. That’s a bit disrespectful for a colleague to do that so publicly two days in a row on national TV.
I was told there would be a leak tonight followed by a confirmation tomorrow and a press conference Monday at 11am. Where is my leak?
Or maybe he’s having fun because he enjoys working with him and knows it’s coming to an end soon?I think the exact opposite. I think because there is legs, that’s why they are having fun. He is teasing a colleague because he knows he can’t say anything on the air no matter if it’s true or not
It's disrespectful to joke with your friend on TV?I don’t know. I gotta think if there were legs to this, they wouldn’t be having so much fun with it. That’s a bit disrespectful for a colleague to do that so publicly two days in a row on national TV.
I will personally deliver him to you down thereI’ll say this, if it’s not Mullen, Barrie can see me in hell.
If they offered and he agreed in principle, it would probably be his agent ironing out the details, not him.You don't think because of in studio commitments all day that a few discussions might not take place over zoom? I had a final interview with a CEO over Zoom. High level discussions take place all the time over Zoom. Since Mullen was in town Wed (confirmed by 3 insiders), it's possible that it's been Zoom calls due to ESPN commitments in between. If things go well, he comes Sunday or Monday.
You said it better than I tried to.Thinking this through logically, there are a few possible situations right?

That’s exactly what I meant yes.Or maybe he’s having fun because he enjoys working with him and knows it’s coming to an end soon?
Haha yup, they wouldn’t be joking about it if it wasn’t pretty much finalized already.Thinking this through logically, there are a few possible situations right?

The idea that Mullen would be interested in Syracuse is so ludicrous that they’re mocking it. And us.Come on they would be just trolling us if HCDFM isn’t the guy.
Im not even thinking from that angle. Is it worth it to troll such a small fanbase on TV? Maybe because hes surrounded by newhouse people he would do it?Yep and to mention this on consecutive days simply to mock us (Cuse) doesn't really set well, would be a total douche move, so I think there still may be a chance he’s coming …
Also a fair pointIf there was nothing to this, Mullen could have put the rumors to rest at any point and hasn't.
I know who I want our next coach to be if it’s not Dan Mullen
I posted a few pages ago, there is an 1130pm flight scheduled to leaved Bedford Airport (outside of Boston) to Syracuse. An insider last night mentioned that airport specifically as there was nothing from Boston.
Now, it appears to be a 2 hr drive from Bristol to Bedford. I cant imagine taking a 2 hr drive to hop on a 1 hr private jet. Closest airport to Bristol CT is Hartford, and there is nothing from there scheduled to land in Cuse.
Maybe he choppers to Bedford to meet up with fam and fly back together?
