Freeze will probably still be there. He's spent his entire coaching career in that area and I don't see Ole Miss firing him unless somehow the wheels fall off.

Agreed. Guy has already played in 2, and the playoff only increases his chances of playing in another.

Coaching staff is set, top notch coordinators that aren't going anywhere, and talent is still Rollin in like always.

There are very few teams in the country that can consistently match lsu's talent level on a consistent basis. Unfortunately one of them is in our division, but the playoff should somewhat mitigate that roadblock.

South Carolina: Spurrier is gone


Not unless he's broken The Bear's SEC wins total before then. What's he need, 28 more or so?

Besides, he's signed through 2017 and he promised Conner Mitch, when he recruited him, that he'd be here through 2017.

Freeze will be at Ole Miss until he either retires or is fired. I don't see him being fired anytime soon.

Only way Mullen is gone is if Muschamp gets fired and Florida comes after him.

Lol no, we have a #8 recruiting class right now and he will like have 8-9 wins this season which means he's only growing our program. He'll be here for at least another 5 years.

ETA: and to the people saying that he will be hired away to another after he has a breakout season are stupid. The only way that happens is if Florida goes after him. If he wins at State then he is winning in the SEC.

Seems waaay too early in the Freeze era to say that IMO.

Why? You don't think Mullen would go to a bigger program than State? Pivey you're smarter than this. Mullen is doing a great job but if a bigger program comes along and offers he is likely gone

Mullen loves State and if (IF) he turns State into a SECG contender every 3-5 years, why would you want to leave that unless it was another SEC school like Florida, Bama, LSU, etc?

Yeah, I personally think he waited too long as his stock has fallen considerably IMO ..good/decent coach, but I doubt he's gonna be able to upgrade. He should have moved up when he had the chance.

I do agree that he would bolt in a heartbeat for a better opportunity, but he will likely never get that better opportunity. MissSt may very well be his ceiling.

If he is only winning 8 or so games, I agree he would leave.

No one even asked to interview him for another job...

He's looked around IMO no question. That's a given...they all do. His problem was while he was waiting on the Big one (Florida) that he didn't get, he missed out on some middle-upper tier opportunities but not Top10 jobs, and during that timespan his stock gradually dropped and he's back at square1 without the new shine, and even the middle-upper tier jobs don't really come after him anymore because he is no longer looked at as an up-and-comer.

All that said, I think he's at MissSt for as long as bulldog fans will have him, because he ain't got nowhere else to go anymore. He played his cards all wrong IMO.

Coaching changes are way too hard to project. You could have as many as over half the league and as little as 1-2 teams with different HC's.
