At bo point did we think we'd land Gary.

We stopped recruiting Manuel, grade problems and ended up going to JUCO anyways.

Mullen was a slight headscratcher

False. He was in every single prediction peice for a month after he visited us unofficially twice in two weeks.

He was also in every single prediction peice until we started to back off after his dissapointing senior season started. You either didn't comprehend my post or you have a poor memory.

My point is, it's very easy to be optimistic 7 months from NSD. Last summer we thought we were going to get a couple OOS 5 stars and felt good about a lot of guys. Once December came around we weren't even in the race for some of them. We also thought we would sign atleast 28 guys, we ended up with what, 24?

That's not what he said. We thought we had a shot at Gary after those visits kind of like we think we have a shot at Akers.

I think he wanted to be THE guy and once Fulton decided on the Tigers, Mullen moved on to his next option. It always seemed like he had an eye on what the other Tiger recruits were doing.
