The departure of Dan Mullen to Florida was thought of as an upward move for the coach, despite the fact that Mississippi State has had far more success for almost a decade than the Gators. It was a move that was met with virtually universal fan understanding, and not the usual vitriol that he would’ve been met with at a “top-notch” program. Coach Mullen did a lot for this Bulldog football, and we should be grateful to him for that, but I can’t help but wonder if this has to be the case moving forward with new coach Joe Moorhead— does Mississippi State have to be just a stepping stone for him?
