esp. when 2 of the wins were over FAU and USF. Admittedly, of the losses were to AL by a combined total of 8 points.

Mullen went 33-7 at UF prior to this 4-7 slump. This year's UF-FSU game will likely feature teams w/ a combined record below .500.


For what?

I haven't exactly been enamored with his offenses since he left Urban. Maybe the numbers reflect better than my eyes.

I agree Kelly should hire an accomplished OC and get out of the way, but I don't think Mullen is that hire. Also, I don't think Kelly really cares about winning a national championship.


Joe Moorhead was available in late 2019.

I dunno if he would've been a fit or want to come to ND but obviously a great resume and should have had a discussion.

Hiring his buddy Quinn as OL coach when he had a younger, better option was pretty sa-weet too.


Yeah, but Kelly did a national search that time.

Tommy knows BK's system.

BK loves Tommy more than Jack loves BK.


Rees won out in that exhaustive national search.
