It’s certainly possible Mullen is attempting to pull off a George Costanza move, as when the cantankerous “Seinfeld” character tried to get fired so he could accept a job with the Mets. While hiring Mullen would be exactly the type of offseason move we might expect from the Mets, however, it still seems unlikely.
It may be that it’s some sort of elaborate piece of performance art, like when Joaquin Phoenix pretended to go off the deep end on Letterman, but it was just for a movie. Mullen’s probably not that good an actor, though.
It’s possible that Mullen and Ron Zook were in the same hot tub when it was struck by lightning and they switched bodies in some sort of “Freaky Friday” situation, but if that was the case, why isn’t Mullen recruiting better?
All that’s missing is some sort of shark reference. But I’ll take it.
If they do let go of Mullen, Kirby’s caused or at least accelerated the firing of two Florida HCs in just 5 seasons. I like it.

On the one hand, Sideshow Dan the Clown is being compared to the greatest sitcom character ever conceived.
On the other hand… it’s George Costanza aka Art Vandelay aka Can’t-Stand-Ya.
Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle… MULLLLEN???

Nah. A Zook coached team actually beat an undefeated UGA team.

Love how Gators were like “is he our Richt?” Earlier in the seasons.
F*ck off. Richt had a class and dignity Mullen can’t even comprehend.

Hale has been posterizing Mullen week after week. The Zook comparison makes this the most savage dunk of them all. Shattered the damn backboard.

David Hale is funny as hell. Read the linked article, if you can. I especially liked the Under-the-radar game of the week part.

Spiraling too quickly. Want a C+ effort down there, not Fs.
Also, again, these guys shitting on Dan’s recruiting didn’t have the nuts to do it 2 months ago.

What’s sad is that ex UF coaches can usually count on an offer from SC, but it looks like SC has moved firmly ahead already.

If Mullen’s brain starts working again after Flurdah cans him he’ll find a job like Miss. St. TCU might be a good fit. Long way from Lake Oconee, though.

Mullen’s fall from Grace in the public eye has been as quick as it has been justified; that is, extremely. Man, did things escalate quickly.
