I can't remember what Mullen exactly said but he kind of took a jab at Minn at last weeks Dawg's Talk. I dunno what would attract him. There's not a lot of football talent in MN and that's one thing he likes about MS. Also, I dunno what's attractive about a team that's currently 1-8 and I can't remember when they have ever been relevant. I know they were pretty good when they had Marion Barber and Laurence Maroney, but they were only like 8-4 at best and going to bowls like the Insight.com bowl and maybe the outback bowl one year. Here's there records the past several years:
2009:6-7(Lost Insight Bowl)
2008:7-6(Lost Insight Bowl)
2007:1-11(OT win against Miami(OH))
2006:6-7(Lost Insight Bowl)
2005:7-5(Lost Music City Bowl)
2004:7-5(Won Music City Bowl)
2003:10-3(Won Sun Bowl-easiest schedule I've ever seen)
2002:8-5(Won Music City Bowl)
I just dunno why you would leave for that. Insight Bowls galore and you're never gonna be able to beat Ohio State, Iowa, Penn St there.
Here he is 7-2 and looking at a New Years Day bowl with better talent around and in the best conference in America and is about to get a huge raise. I think MSU is where his heart is currently and no reason to leave for a team like Minn.

...but, we know that sooner or later someone is probably going to come after him. Just thought the article might be of interest to many on this board. Agree, Minnesota and Colorado are probably not going to attract Mullen.
