Just getting some metrics, but how much are you giving now and how much would you give next year if this were announced next week.

$0 now, $1k with Mullen (before buying any tickets, etc)

Most everyone in my group (we go in together on things) agrees we would not just renew but give more of Mullen came back. If Lebby stays many I know plan on pulling back with $$$. It's just a bad ROI with him in charge. I don't know for a fact, but I imagine the really big givers see it the same way.

I’d buy season tickets again, which obviously comes with a donation. I’m out on the current regime. I thought it was a bad hire to begin with.

Why would anyone think he would not quit on us again like he did his last three years when he was here. He has zero charcter.
There are very few programs where a coach won’t leave. I don’t care about any of that. I’d take a few years of competent coaching. I’m not sure I understand the comment about him quitting his last 3 years. He left maybe one of the most talented rosters we’ve ever had.

Ole Miss wouldn't trade the last six years with us if Lane leaves for BR tomorrow. I would love to hire Mullen for 6 years and have him lead us to the playoff and leave for another school. I'd take that deal.

Well, you’ve been proven right, it was a bad hire
I was far from the only one. It was probably the most 50/50 hire I’ve seen. Half the fan base was optimistic and half was not.

I’d love for Lebby to be good. I like his demeanor and like the fact that he seems like a blue collar type guy. He’s definitely not a drama queen like Kiffin. But unfortunately, he’s just not very intelligent.

It’s kind of like Kendall learned something from Art and Lebby is the not very bright son in law. We should have tried to hire KB

And if our plastic-faced president had simply done the sensible thing and tagged a career assistant as “interim” after Leach died, we would not have had to make such an uninspiring hire. But, no, he went all in on the wrong assistant who tried to uproot every bit of everything in one season. No way we get serious looks from anybody worth having after going all in and firing the guy after one season.

Lebby has most definitely earned the firing if it comes this season. I don’t see how we can afford to keep him, at this point. He simply can’t do anything right. We did make some big strides this season, but he wasn’t competent enough to make any of it count.

Nothing, I swear half of the people on here need to go to a battered women's shelter. He's the equivalent of the cheating spouse always looking for the next best thing especially around the holidays when he's at your work holiday party! Bundle your money and build a Target at least Megan will consider it then. Why are people infatuated with him. He did well for us and the was axed at Florida! Oh I see he is only good at small underperforming schools, I take it back maybe we should hire him and when they as for NIL money I'll say no he does better developing TEs into QBs! I just can't with the bring Dan back. Have any schools ever had success with bringing back ex head coach?

After the bama losers hid last three years he was mentally out of here.

Exactly would you rather be in position we were in 2015-2017 or 2022-2025? Which three year stretch would you rather have? Or how about ole Miss do you think they would trade with us right now?

I would at a minimum 3x my current contributions. That’s before buying season tickets again.

I want an ROI. I would trust Mullen to spend it wisely, as opposed to the current situation.

Everything in my wallet.

$17 and a punch card for El Veracruz. One more punch and I get $10 off the next visit.

No. Mullinz lost 3 EB's while texting AD's at other schools, looking for another job. Never Mullinz again. Forget it.

Mullen would basically be a slam dunk hire at this point. He just knows how to win with no questions asked. If Mullen had this years exact team, he is sitting at about 7-9 win range. Certainly he is winning against UF and Texas. Possibly one or both of Tenn and Mizzu. I know Mizzu wasn’t really close, but I feel like Mullen would have put us in better position. Btw KT would have been starting more than likely.

We could hire the ghost of Knute Rokne with a young Tom Brady at QB and I’m giving $0.
College football is the new WWE. The awareness of how fake everything is now reaches new, pathetic levels every week. Politicians, coaches, key players and the media. All looking for their terrible acting jobs to be taken seriously. Paid to clown all the fans. The game on the field is no longer the game. NFL is no different, they just have much better actors and more control over the circus.
