Biggest career mistake ever for Mullen was leaving Miss St.

Mullen was notorious while at State for taking these "smaller" rent-a-win games lightly and making them closer than they should've been.

I’d argue the opposite. He was always going to be bottom-third in SEC pay, State is always going to be resource deprived, and he’d already taken them to the ceiling they’re physically capable of. It was the right time to move on. With UF and TV pay it’s not like he even lost out economically taking 4 years off

They were due for stagnation if he had stuck around. A 7-8 win baseline at State is super, but he was about to enter his 2nd decade there. The familiarity was starting to become obvious

Also, the dude gave 9 years of his one life on earth to Starkville, Mississippi. I don’t think he or his family are devastated at how things turned out

He should have known from working with Urban that the expectations in Gainesville were different than they were in Starkville. But he thought he could get away with the same nonsense he tried to pull at Miss State (half arse recruiting effort, mailing it in halfway during the season, etc).

1 game sample size is way too small to figure out how he is going to do at UNLV, see Billy Napier's first game against Utah as an example, but what we saw yesterday seemed like the checked out, burnt out going through the motion Dan Mullen that got him fired at Florida.

UNLV spent a lot of money by their standards to hire Dan and are expecting him to elevate the program beyond what Odom did. If Dan is still truly checked out, he could be fired by the end of year 2.

Do you not know that lines move

Idaho State spread (ATS) opened at +24.5 and closed at +30.5.

When i bet it i got it at 25.5. Pretty common sense stuff in betting. Must be your first time
