I'm actually a little disappointed that the carousel has been so nuts today. Normally, we'd get a day or two of Dan Mullen chat. I have to admit, I know little about his recruiting. Evidently, he can find QBs. What about all the other positions? Does he have a strong recruiting rep?
Yeah, he's got a pretty good reputation in general. He was at Florida before and an excellent coordinator/recruiter there. Given their limitations, he's done a pretty decent job recruiting at MSU. He's typically been pulling in classes ranked somewhere in the 20s - not quite enough to really compete for SEC West titles, but excellent given MSU just doesn't have the cachet to regularly win recruiting battles for all-everything studs.

Almost as importantly, he's also done an excellent job developing the talent once it gets on campus, which has honestly been Florida's biggest problem - their recruiting rankings were always fine, but players (especially QBs!) often didn't quite take that next step.

He may leave yet, but the 20M$ thing that was bouncing around was from a fake twitter feed.

I mean, I thought defending an abusive basketball coach was the lowest you could go, but come on dude. Schiano is an rear end in a top hat who, at the very least did not speak up about what he knew about Sandusky.

He’s been recruiting well (Kansas standards anyways) and is generally well regarded. He might not be doing well on field, but it’s worth showing at least a little more patience before pulling the plug.

Besides, if you fire him, by definition you then need to hire someone else and the job isn’t exactly desirable. Are you confident you can get someone better than Beatty? Especially when that dude knows he won’t even be around for a full recruiting cycle because you fired Beatty after 3 years?

If you’re trying to get someone to come to a long-term rebuilding job like Kansas, you really need to be able to show him that you’re willing to have patience if when he doesn’t win immediately. But Year 4 is definitely where you need to be able to see some tangible signs of progress. Even if it’s only “4-8”, show something to clearly indicate you’re building something.

I mean I never defended Mike Rice so it appears that your memory is as terrible as your opinions but as for as Schiano goes, there is zero proof that he knew anything about Sandusky and didn't speak up.

It would almost literally be impossible to do worse. Like if there’d been some semblance of progress I get it but he went backwards in year 3.

You defended him at first.

Then you defended his boss for not firing him.

So, yeah I guess you defending Schiano here checks out.
