Solid State melt is solid.

1. Dan Mullen has completely mismanaged this team. He's a risk averse clown who can't win the big one. But what really pisses me off is that he quit on the team. Down 21-0 and he decides to kick a FG. What. The. HELL. If it wasn't already clear enough, the game was over at that point. Dan raised the surrender flag. You aren't getting back into the game by putting 3 on the board in that situation. I can live with going for it and not scoring. I WILL NOT live with a coach who quits on his team in that situation.

We've discussed the mismanagement of RBs ad nauseum, so I won't rehash. But he has completely, utterly failed at recruiting OL and CB. Did you know we haven't had an OL recruited solely by Mullen drafted? Gabe Jackson was the last OL drafted, and he was a Croom holdover. That is piss poor. We're taking and missing on way too many "project" OL. We have GOT to fix the OL and that starts with recruiting.

What pisses me off the most, though, is that we're soft. We got physically handled in our two rivalry games. We used to be known for being a team you didn't like playing because we brought the lumber. You'd be sore for days after playing us, even if you won. Not so anymore. We've become soft and that's on Mullen.

Mullen has also lost all creativity on offense. I swear we only have about 6 plays in the playbook right now: Zone "read," Dak draw, Dak power, swing pass, Slant, Deep Post, Fly, Curl. Fade to Bear in the redzone. The 4th and 1 call with Dak was atrocious. EVERYONE in the stadium knew what was coming. If you're going to be completely obvious, at least put in the damn jumbo package, run power, and give yourself a chance to make it. Going 4 wide and putting Holloway in motion sure isn't going to get the job done. Give your QB an extra TE or two and a lead blocker.
