Yes, it's true that Brooks was referring to a different kind of work. The payoff is not in dollars. Which reminds me of "Annie Had a Baby," an old R&B hit by the Midnighters. Annie had a baby Can't work no more No, no, no, no, no, no, no Annie had a baby Can't work no more Every time we start to working She has to stop and walk the baby 'cross the floor
I'm curious about any turnover in underclassmen, etc, because for a MWAC team, they were pretty damn good this year. He's not exactly taking over a program in shambles (by MWAC standards).
I'm assuming our payments to him still continue with his hiring at UNLV? We still owe him $1M every July for 3 more years.
If I recall correctly, Collins defense, wasn’t it the Psycho Defens??e, was pretty good. It wasn’t till 3rd and Grantham showed up that the Mullen show started its final acts.
It just seems to me that when you marry someone named "Candy", you should expect something to go wrong.
He's gonna light up the Mountain West, I promise you. Just needs to get the DC hire right. Geoff Collins would be a good pick. Mullen could always coach offense. Needs admin support and recruiting help...he's not without skills.
How about we raise it to $100.00, and double up for the first guy who remembers this bet four years from now when Mullen gets fired?
So as I understand the terms $100 if they make the playoff in 3 years (my premise). $100 if Mullen gets fired in 4 years(your premise)? I’ll take that action. Obviously UNLV getting into the playoff is tough regardless of the coach, so I can hedge my wager as I doubt he gets fired in 4 years.
You left a few things out and You don't know how to take a joke. But game on. $500 Mullen won't make the playoffs in 3 years. Straight up. Why place a chicken scratch $100 bet to be paid off in 3 years? If you would prefer a different number, that's fine.
Well, I couldn’t tell if you were joking or not. My joke enabled font was turned off. In all seriousness, there are a heck of a lot of variables to put up $500 on a team making the playoffs in 3 years. I think there’s less of a chance of Mullen getting canned in 4 years at UNLV than them making the playoffs given all the extrinsic variables but I still think they have a good chance given his ability to coach and O (and the fact that TG won’t be his DC)
Come on. He is a good fit. He has talent. Wish him well. It has been three years since Dan showed us what Laissez faire recruiting looked like. Book’em Danno. We just watched his only pick for offensive tackle his last year( the one who told him emphatically he didn’t want to play tackle, preferring tight end) catch a 17 yard pass and show some athleticism in our bowl game. Could have been worse. Rumor had it all our kickers were considering transferring when they got the memo.. FROM NOW ON YOU WILL PLAY WHERE WE SAY, WHEN WE SAY.
