Mullen definitely had a different approach. He gets knocked for it all the time, but I was okay with it. The results were very good, by Ms State standards. His approach was based on good evaluations and finding lower rated guys he felt confident he could develop. He also wanted guys who understood they would be asked to redshirt and that they would have to work their way up the depth chart. That won't work at Florida. I doubt he takes the same approach there. He did what he thought would work at State, and he appears to have been right.

Mooreheads staff has a different approach. It looks good on paper. Will it pan out? We'll see. But I like his approach too.

Tony, that has been my opinion on CDM too. He used a strategy that he felt would work at State and it did.
It will not work at UF.
Moorhead now has the advantage of what Mullen did at State and should be able to build on it. IMO, he will still focus on MS first as he should but now with the credibility that State has with recruits, he can expand our recruiting farther out than what it used to be.
Moorhead seems to be a perfect fit at State for the future but like any new coach/staff , there will be some growing pains here.

The pressure will be on Mullen at Florida but they will need to exercise extreme patience over the 3-4 years. His offense is very complicated and it will take time to implement. It will not be an overnight process. If they give him 5 years, then look out Florida will be a powerhouse for years to come.
