The House of Blue

But by then Msu will be looking for a new coach. Mullen is probably a lead canidate for Penn St.

But Jeff, he did this in the 5A division. Tennessee has pretty good HS football and Cobb was in 3A. They should know about this guy unless he just came out of nowhere and was a back up last year.

Class size isn't as key as the state in this case. Tennessee and Kentucky are very similar in this regard. There are about a dozen or so elite players in a given year, but the overall talent level drops off severely after that. It's not like a player getting those yards in Class 5A in FLA, TEX, CAL, OHIO, GA, etc. Then the stats would be weighed a little stronger.

That's not to say Mobley isn't good. I like him a lot. He's just considered, for lack of a better term, a "typical" prospect at the position. People often mistake the 2 or 3 stars to mean "bad." It doesn't. Just means "average" in most cases.

I think Penn St will struggle to hire a decent coach and wouldn't be surprised to see Mullen turn it down.

#1. The scandal that's rocked Penn State.
#2. Following a coaching legend
#3. Who will be his AD and University President? Both are likely going to be fired when the dust settles.

Him taking visits and looking around could help his rating. You see it fairly often kids getting bumped or downgraded based on who is recruiting them...
