Dan Mullen

[cvilleorange]

Imagine what this thread might look like if it’s not Mullen?

Especially if people donated money for NIL thinking it was Dan Mullen

I love his post games with Emily (or Donna for hoops).

To each their own. I appreciated his game tweets yesterday because even though I seemingly have 20 subscriptions for tv, the CW wasn’t one of them it appears.

anyone gonna export this thread and put into ChatGPT to see what it thinks?

I wonder if the fact I am from Boston (and the NY metro now) and used to sports hosts that are obnoxious I find the guy comparitively pretty tame. I dunno. Like you said, to each their own, but I think he is an asset to the media landscape.

Speaking of old fashions, anyone got any good bourbon recommendations? Was gifted a smoker kit recently

I like Bulleit.

Woodford Double Oaked

I’d heard that was full of caramel and vanilla notes. I bought it and tasted it and all I can say is that my palate must be stupid because I got no caramel nor vanilla notes from that bourbon.

Wild Turkey 101 or Bulleit are both great for old fashioneds

I second Bullet

I know this is the Mullen thread but can I say something about Chesney that can’t be ignored? It’s one thing to never have any Group of 5 or P5 Head Coaching experience but he also has zero experience as an assistant at this level. I really like him but that has to be a disqualifying factor. He should at least have a couple of years as an assistant at this level IMO.

I really like Bulleit for old fashioneds. Totally underrated and a good value.

I just ordered the 125 proof Bulleit for the first time so I’ll be trying that next.

Basil Hayden is great for old fashioneds as well.

This thread between the tracking of planes has been hilarious

 

[Crusty]

Bronco rumored to be candidate for Oregon State where he played DB.
Apparently he entered search for Northwestern and Colorado.

I rate it highly and it is the best value bourbon for sure... The Rye, not so much, but I'm not a fan of rye in general.

The longer this goes with no news the least confident I am. There would be absolutely no reason to hold off the announcement now.

 

[Bulldog04]

the good news is we all can become pilots pretty much with all this private plane Talk lol. Some of these private plane takes are crazier than us losing to lemoyne

 

[Apdaly]

I almost feel the opposite, if it wasn’t Mullen don’t think there would be an issue getting Chesney locked in pretty quickly.

Basil Hayden is great for old fashioneds as well.

Its also great with sauteed Banana's and Chocolate... Thats what happened to our Basil Hayden, after we started buying Buffalo Trace distillery Bourbons. Basil Hayden is aight, though.

Yeah, today is when the coaching vacancy musical chairs really speed up in earnest... If it's not announced or leaked today, the odds drop significantly imo...

I’ve never had the rye. Same I don’t really gravitate to Rye.

This is just my opinion, but I feel Wildhack’s own job security is dependent on the success of this hire. He will have his own guys in the big three sports at SU. The jury is still out on the lax and bball hires. If we don’t start seeing success in the big three I think his time on the hill may come to an end. Having said that, if I’m in his shoes I’m doing everything I can to get Mullen who has proven he can win at the P5 level. That’s not to say other candidates can’t be successful, but I’d be digging in my heels to boosters, the board, whoever, to get Mullen.

Wildhack is 65. If this hire doesn’t work out he’ll probably be 68 or 69 and just retire like a normal person.

He could always take a decade off and then run for president...

Wildhack strikes me as a guy who would allow Mullen to finish out the ESPN duties like yesterday. We may be a few days ahead compared to the actual process.

The longer this goes with no news the least confident I am. There would be absolutely no reason to hold off the announcement now.

Thamel has never had a problem commenting on rumors that involve ESPN employees in the past.

While he’s been at ESPN? I’m not sure. He’s only been there 3-4 years. It does seem like a reasonable policy however - to prohibit commenting on a co-worker.

No idea if it’s a thing or not
