Also thought Dan Mullen would be way more successful than he was, though he didn’t exactly crash and burn. He just didn’t live up to expectation. Had he stayed in Starkville I think he would’ve continued to be successful and challenge for the west every other year or so.

State fans were pretty confident he wouldn't do well at Florida because of his recruiting and conservative play calling in big games, but he would have been good enough at State and would still be coaching and making $5 million a year.

I don't know about challenging for the West with any regularity at MSU, but he would have in 2018 with the #1 defense.
