If Malzan (sp?) then we have to keep Chavis for defensive continuity.
What makes any of you think Chavis wouldn't go with Les? It makes sense for him to. Also, what head coach is going to come in here to run this company and not put his people in?

Just cause a coach just signed an extension means nothing, Miles had just got an extension at Okie St before LSU hired him, from what I read that extension was through 2013...

Geauxdaddy, the difference between Mullen and Hallman is that Brett FarVe made Hallman what Joe Dean thought he was, Mullen on the other hand has not had such an outstanding player at MSU. Very good players who have been coached up but Farve made Hallman.Sorry, i now see that someone already beat me to the punch, my Bad
Not doubting this at all. I was just curious at how long he had been there and what his record was without looking it up....lol, now I will.
Just hard to tell, I know I wasn't overwhelmed when I found out that this guy nick saban was coming to LSU and that turned out pretty good.

Jimbo is a better recruiter than Leach and one of the best in the country. He gave FSU a ten win season this year. He knows how to run the program, has been at LSU, and would be a very good hire here. He would win I believe. Leach wouldn't be a good hire.
Meh. No Jimbo. I'm sure he'd do ok, but Leach would do better. Jimbo managed to make an offense with NFL talent at every position look ordinary. Leach made mediocre talent look special.

That's what I want to know. Most people are saying "yea lets get this guy and make him keep the whole defenseive staff and half the offense". No big name, self respecting coach is going to come in here under those demands no matter how much he is paid.
I think the best you can realistically hope for is that he keeps a coach or two.

His first year he was 1 chad jones from beating our arse. He came from Florida where I think he was the OC of 2 champs.

Consensus ?? NO WAY !!
Florida didn't even think about Dan, who knew the gators like his back hand. Consensus that!!
Like the way this Sounds .. we just hired a Miss. St Coach
Mullen is Not a Big Time Coach ... I rather keep Les ...
U better come up with a better chose than Dan Mullen For 3 million .. in this economy you should get alot of interest in the LSU Job.

TD, have you ever seen anyone win in Starkville. Much less beat Florida at the swamp? Look, he may not be bigtime yet, but you gotta work somewhere before you get called up to the Yankees. Jackie Sherril is the only person to ever win anything at State until Mullen and he did it with illiterate JC dominance. Mullen is actually get people who went to highschool.

Does anyone know for certain that Patterson has actually signed a new contract? Usually announcements come after generally agreement is made. It can take days (even months in some cases) before the actual contract is signed.
Can someone from the Tigerdroppings legal department chime in?

I would think it's every coaches goal to win a national championship. TCU will finish this season as #2. Next year they go to the Big East with an automatic BCS berth. The Big East isn't that much tougher of a conference than the one they're in now. He'll have plenty of opportunities to play in BCS games with a much easier road than he would at LSU.
Patterson won't leave TCU.

F uck Mullen..

Mullen just signed an extension with a raise I thought.

Patterson has been at TCU since 1998 (2 years as DC and HC since 2000.) He obviously likes it there and he's had opportunities to go to big time programs, but has stayed at TCU.
Chances of him leaving are very slim.

What bigtime programs have offered him a job?
Tcu would have been left out of this years BCSNC game with zero losses in the Big East.
Lose one game in the SEC is almost equal to being undefeated in the Big East. Every other year, the discussion late in the year is whether or not the BCS should drop the Big East from the AQ ranks.
Bad argument. MAYBE, he doesn't want a big pressure job...but him staying isn't because he feels like he is going to reel off a few NCs at TCU because they are now a part of the Big East.

I think it's a very solid argument.
Not anymore now that TCU is there. That's why they were brought into the league. They give both instant credibility.
If AU had 1 loss this year, Oregon would be playing TCU tomorrow.
You're a fool if you believe that. He's now set up to go to a BCS bowl almost every year now unless a Big East team steps up. As bad as the BE is, it still brings more credibility to TCU than being a non-AQ.

I think Mullen would be a great hire for LSU. Just looking at what he has done with MSU in two years, its hard to believe that he couldnt put a great team on the field with all of the talent here in Louisiana.
Posted on 1/9/11 at 2:54 am to Tubedog13
I agree that being in the Big East lends a little more cred to TCU, and vice versa. A little. He isn't going to win a NC at TCU. You are a fool if you believe such a thing.
Kelly left Cincinatti, Edsel left UCONN, RichRod left WVU...all supposedly easier roads to the BCS for bigger football programs. These guys had all the same reasons to stay that Patterson supposedly has.
Easy road to BCS bowls. Check.
Doesn't want to leave what he built. (Edsel) check.
Great support from school/ fanbase worship (RR) check.
Good recruiting area, can pull talent even with other big schools in area. (Kelley) check.
They all left for bigger jobs.... why wouldn't Patterson. I need to hear better reasons.
