I really had no idea State was already paying him $2.75 million. I also had no idea Michigan was paying Brady Hoke so much money.
Forgetting my $3.5 million figure (I was basing it off Les making $4 million), you think Mississippi State is going to pay Kevin Sumlin type money to keep Mullen if he gets that kind of offer elsewhere? And do you think Mississippi State is a more lucrative job than UF (to Mullen) once that job opens up after this season?

Yeah, that is what I want to know. Would state pay Kevin Sumlin money?
My feeling is that Ole Miss would, because screw it even in MS they are considered the rich ones. But I don't think state would, even if they can afford it because it will cause political problems when some organization says they should spend that money on some satellite campus instead. Being "the state's" university in a poor state like MS can be a burden.

Absolutely. Look at our program when Mullen took over. Then look at it now.

Yes and No. To Mullen 2 years ago. Yes.
Now, maybe not.
No doubt its a blue chip program, but it is in a state of dismay it hasn't seen in years. Mullen has his program right where he wants it. He and his wife love Starkville, both kids were born here, he would be making the same amount at both schools, his program is established instead of in turmoil, and his job security is 100%. Look how fast Muschamp will be run out of town.
Not to mention his ego. He would love nothing more than to build something completely by himself, free of Urban's shadow, and win a natty.

Nope, Mullen is gone.
Mullen and Muschamp are making about the same right now. Now you need to figure out how much it would take to get mullen to go back there and all the pressure that goes with it that he doesn't currently have to deal with. What's that number?
