Mullen was like the opposite of Kiffin. Dude went after every opening in the SEC, ACC, and Big 10. Turned down by Miami, Penn State, Maryland, and UConn of all places before Tennessee was gonna hire him. Then UF swooped in at the last second.

We're really just laughing at those that claim that Florida is such a better program than Ole Miss. It may have been the case previously but it isn't the case now and we like to point that out.


Ole Miss is currently the better program but what you are failing to realize is that each programs potential is much different. Ole Miss is currently at their peak. Florida is at their bottom. Florida has the potential to be a program that wins National Championships. Ole Miss has the potential to be a playoff team now that it's 12 teams but can't win Nattys. The goal is to win ships. Ole Miss hasn't and wont do that.

We've completed Week 3 in the first season of the 12 team CFP.

We have no idea what Ole Miss's potential is under the new set up.

Right now Florida doesn't have a permanent President and had a dog shite AD. Florida might have the potential for making a 12 team CFP and get a title but they are further away than just a HC for that to happen.

Ole Miss has never won anything. Florida has. Florida has a much better recruiting base. They are struggling bad currently but all it would take is a few good hires and they are back in business. And I hate Florida. Can't stand them. But facts are facts. Ole Miss historically has won nothing that matters. Never even been to an SEC championship game.

All Florida ever has been able to do in the series against Ole Miss is tie it. We have led the series several times and will again after this year.


They don't even have a substantial lead in the series with LSU and we played them 30+ years straight... including the 90's

It should be LSU 34-33 but whatever. NCAA can have their BS vacates

State was already melting about Tennessee taking Mullen. A UF fan was in a topic using the logic that Lane's ex-wife's dad played at UF, which could be a selling point for Lane to coach there. Not sure Ole Miss is the problem here.


While Tennessee is a bigger program than State, Tenn was a dumpster fire of a program at that time, and I thought no way would Mullen leave State for them. We had a 10+ win season upcoming for MSU. Yet with all that Mullen was still about to go to Tenn before UF called.

Kind of like OM and Florida now.

Why are you so mad exactly?

Because OM fans on the internet say Florida sucks when responding to you saying you’re gonna steal our coach? Is that the beef here?

idiots love to spew this lie, especially lsu fans. Although i suppose I’d try my best to act like it never happened if my team had gotten beat 21-0 in New Orleans, in the national championship game, against one of our biggest rivals.

Funnily enough, there’s two separate games I could be talking about here

2017 - All State fans - "Mullen will never leave MSU for Florida, lateral move.

2024 - Some Ole Miss fans - "Kiffin will never leave OM for Florida, downgraded job at inferior level." Most acknowledge that it is possible, although unlikely, IMO.

Very similar although there are only a few Ole Miss fans denying that could ever happen. It's early in the season, Kiffin and Ole Miss have a lot to play for, too early for this talk. I am pulling for them to win the SEC and a Natty!
Then we can argue over coaches.

Sure he could leave, but is it worth it for you to pay him like $15 million per year plus the buyout? Aren’t y’all broke with a tiny NIL?

Not for me, I support hiring Kerwin Bell HC Shane Matthews OC, Mike Peterson DC. Former Gators that care about UF.

But don't believe for a minute that the money isn't there and that it won't be offered to Kiffin when the time comes.

How many 10 win seasons has Florida had in the last 10 yrs, 3? How many has ole miss had in the last 10 yrs, 3. With a good possibility ole miss will have another 10+ win season this year. Welcome to the dumpster fire of a program level. Hope you enjoy the ride!
