I have to wonder if the Leo Lewis situation may eventually put UF in a position where they have to fire Mullen for cause.
I agree, won't sniff the East. He will keep the party going and money flowing for a few more years tho.
No it isn’t. There isn’t a damn thing I can do about it. Maybe we’ll at least get entertained for a few years and straighten out the real problems.
Its also realistic. We're not landing a grandslam hire at this point. I think the guy's a goof, but its a positive turn in the trajectory of the program. Our last 3 hires have been Kiffin (bright, but unproven), Dooley (loser, coming off a 4-8 season), and Butch (never coached in a P5, never won a damn thing). Mike Leach is easily the best and most proven hire we've made in a long time.
And we’ve been saying - repeatedly - that just being better than butch or dooley is a stupid comparison. This is apathy setting in. Currie should have been allowed to make this deal, and all it does is continue the status quo. Whatever.
