Dan Mullen

[Zepharus]

just to clarify, the violations in question are the Level II violations (meeting with recruits outside the window, etc), or are there other violations tied to Mullen?

Puuuuleeeze. NIL is the wild west and programs are cheating daily. Just a sad justification at this point

I know i know, this guy is likely a nobody — but on 11/27 Thamel tweeted it was going to be Matt Campbell or Napier, Napier being the favorite. Look who had it 5 days before Pete!

I’m a hopeless fanatic what can i say

Hope is a dangerous thing.

Sure but there were some very plugged insiders who said the exact opposite. If the AD wanted to squash rumors, they could have done so very quickly. This reads more that it was close but fell apart at the end.

The only real info was that there was a discussion with him and the administration. I don't recall seeing any insiders saying his hiring was imminnent but maybe I missed it.

 

[MadNY3]

I’ve fired out some texts. No one knows anything. They all just agree it’s still Mullen. Said not a coincidence with the Twitter and all that stuff going. One person stated “they aren’t just making jokes to make jokes. They have to know”

I think it’s time to turn off the act. Mullen himself said he’s not the next coach.

You don’t have to make stuff up to be a respected fan.

 

[Ozcuse]

Shut it down.

 

[CusefanATL]

What if… NUNZIO being the HC for the bowl game is part of the plan. Therefore Mullen is not the NEXT head coach.

 

[Grbac]

Guys like Jason Candle and Curt Cignetti are starting to sound much better now. If in fact they are actual candidates.

Mullen would have been a great hire but we must move on now. I wanted Marrone but that’s not happening either.

 

[IthacaBarrel]

We are lucky someone didn’t post a rumor about Sean Payton coming here or a quarter of you would be dangling from your ceiling fans right now.

the thing is nobody really knows if Mullen was ever even a serious candidate here regardless of what internet keyboard warriors like to post. Hey, I love it, it's all entertaining but to jump from one conclusion to the next seems crazy. Mullen wanted the job and Syracuse screwed it up? Where are the facts other than internet rumor? There aren't any. Like I said, it's all fun and I am here for all of it but the fact that Mullen had no issue tweeting out that he won't be coaching at Syracuse tells me he was never a serious candidate. That's my opinion and clearly just as good as anyone else's as to what is really going on here

He's not making stuff up. You can only report what your hearing. Sometimes it's spot on and other times it's way off. I highly doubt he's making stuff up.

 

[Zepharus]

So it’s not over!! From a completely reliable source!

Last night 9;30pm. Think Im going to trust Dan Mullen himself here...

He said that yesterday 4 hours before Mullen said anything.

 

[Bulldog04]

Go to bed at 1145. Finally get a good night sleep. Wake up to this. The timing of all this makes no sense. He could have EASILY said something earlier in the week that he wasn’t going to be a candidate or whatever. His tweet said he will not be the coach. He had since last week to say “hey everyone stop it I’m not even interested” but he didn’t. He waited until Sunday night at midnight.

I’m not mad, I’m disappointed.

Right. He’s also responding to a post from before the Mullen Tweet. No need to attack folks like that.

And people like you are why I don’t share things on here and have only a small group of people I talk to. You think I have nothing better to do? Amazing there can be such stupidity on here

 

[GoSU96]

No one has sold me on why him. He’s coaching holy cross who didn’t even get into the playoffs.how can you be certain this guy can walk into a p5 program and do what’s needed to advance us. Not one person on that list is exciting and sells a single ticket. This is just another cheap money saving hire at cash check u

What coach sell tickets?

 

[Marsh01]

break the bank for Jason Candle

 

[Newhouser]

He may not be. There are a lot of assuumptions associated with Mullen: 1. He is the favorite, the top choice
2. His salary request is more than we we paid Babers, is in the SEC range and his previous salary, reported to be more than the 4 million we paid Babers.
Coach's salary side, we still have NIL concerns... Players want to be paid now.

Another big assumption was how much the hire was pushing attendance. The average fan does not have the love affair with Dan Mullen that the board does. Chesney takes advantage of a soft schedule people will come back.

It’s the best

 

[Bulldog04]

So the press conference gets scheduled for Monday. Then in a short time it says it’s canceled and then a short time after that Mullen speaks for the first time saying he’s not the guy? Not a coincidence

 

[SmilinBob]

What coach sell tickets?

Maloney

Whoa. Bad take. The chat you are responding to was way before the Mullen tweet.

 

[rrlbees]

LOL @ the 300% ticket price increase

There’s not a 300% increase.

 

[MadNY3]

H0T Takes are a bit different than trusted inside information. That’s all.

 

[richmondcuse03]

There’s not a 300% increase.

Correct. There’s a small section that will be premium club seats because they can charge it and make more money. Lots of good seats in the dome so you can easily charge a lot more for some premium ones and keep the rest more affordable.

And the lack of it even more so!
