No to the first part and a hell yeah to the 2nd part.

And I was pissed we didn't get Chip Kelly.

This thread triggered me so hard. Mullen is a fraud.

So basically your bragging over a win over a 2019 UF team coached by someone who you don’t consider to be a top 3 coach.


2019 UF > 2020 Georgia

So Kirby just has 1 good win


Like I said 4. Still doesn’t change the fact that Mullen has 0.

Dude, you can tell me that wins don’t count for whatever reason, but even if it’s true, it doesn’t change the fact that Mullen has 0 wins over teams that have finished the year with 2 losses or less. He’s proven nothing. He hasn’t even won his own division yet.

You are arbitrarily throwing out this 2 loss or less threshold like it makes a huge difference.

Once again, why are you ignoring 2017? This would be a much better point if Mullen had a single win that meant anything. One SEC Championship win. One playoff win. One win over a team that has finished in the Top 10. Anything.

You right. I read it wrong. But now I see that Kirby actually has 5 wins over Top 10 teams.

So:

Kirby: 5 in 5 years

Mullen: 1 in 3 years

Mullens first year at UF was in 2018 and picked up coaching a 4 win team the year prior.

Kirby arrived at UGA with Richt leaving him a ton of recruits after a 10-3 season. Kirby was in his 2nd year in 2017.

Kirbys success in 2017 happened in the 2nd worst East division in nearly 20 years (2010 obviously is the worst).

You are doing all this work trying to prove that Kirby isn’t good, but you’ve done nothing to prove Mullen is any good. He’s accomplished nothing. If he beats Bama in the SECCG, then we can start talking.

Remember that time Krappy beat A1abana?

Or that time he beat LSU?

ME NEITHER!



Mullen > Krappy

You’re right. If Mullen wins, it basically leap frogs anything Kirby has done at UGA in 5 years.

"He's accomplished nothing."

Only made a Florida team struggling to bowl (before his arrival) in the National Title talk.

Even if we don't beat Alabama, we are LIGHT YEARS ahead of schedule. In recruiting and results.

Meanwhile, Kirby is now sliding so low that Georgia fans don't expect a top ten finish even though he has the most talented team in the country.

Dunno, seems like we're trending in the right direction.

The conference that has Nick Saban?
Even Fisher beat him this year and has a title. This isn’t a hot take, it’s a Stupid one.

I agree with this guy, that is a stupid take. No one in this conference compares to Saban at this point in time. Come back when he's won 4 or 5 NCs.

And Fisher just beat him with a worse QB, and has a NC.

Now if Mullen wins the SECCG then we can talk about him possibly being the 2nd best coach in the SEC, and if he wins the NC this year then I agree 100% that he is the 2nd best. But he isn't even in the same conversation as Saban until he's proven he can win multiple NCs over a period of time. To say anything different is just ignorant.

It took several injuries and a walk on QB starting at UGA for Mullen to beat Kirby for the first time and suddenly he's the "best coach in the conference".

Gators are having a good run this year on the back of a fantastic QB. Mullen is a good coach but he's not a top 3 SEC coach when you take into account his recruiting record & scientology background.

Why do you think a walk-on is starting at QB?

Could...it be that...maybe Kirby can't manage the Quarterback room, perhaps?
