Mullen might be a good coach, jury is out on that I think, but it's possible, but his "attitude" is not what I think is appropriate, in many ways.
They just lost their second game, the playoff SHOULD be irrelevant as a consideration for them now, even if somehow they upset Bama (they won't). Coaches do better, I think, when they use boring coach speak and don't comment on stuff like this, and don't have players losing the game by throwing a shoe on the field.
