This makes a lot of sense if you think about it.
1) he’s from the northeast
2) he was a GA at Cuse so he is very familiar with Cuse
3) the expectations at Cuse are nothing compared to MSU or UF so much less stress
4) the path to winning is much easier at Cuse
5) getting Cuse to a top 3 ACC team is pretty attainable
6) job stability and job security. From my understanding Mullen is a big family guy and this is a play he can settle down and not have to worry about the pressures and stresses if he is winning at least 8-9 a year
7) we have upgraded our facilities immensely in the last 5 years
8) we aren’t a total rebuild and I’m sure Mullens realizes that. We were a good coach away from winning at least 8 this year
9) we have some studs currently on the team.
OG, Wax, Allen, Villari, Barron, Bellamy, Farmer, Clark, McDonald, Jaquez, Lockett, Jobity, both Cruz’ on the o-line. He has talent to work with. Add good assistants and a couple stud transfers and a good recruiting class and we are cooking as early as his first season
10) weak schedule his first year. Mullens can hit the ground running and win 9 his first season. Mullen’s has a chance to be a LEGEND here. And I mean that. Dude is only 51. Imagine him staying here for 15 or so years and winning at least 8-9 games a year while here. FIRE ME UP
