Mullens is a system Qb. Not a knock on him, just a fact. Chip Lindsey offense fit him perfectly. The Swac guy can say they did not change the offense all he wants. They did change it, the play on the field shows it. Jones will be a good #2 wr next year. Once he learns the playbook, gets better at route running, he will be fine. Staggers, while still green, is the best wr on the team and grossly under utilized.
What is really painful is there are 2 instant starters playing at Hattiesburg High, 1 a sr, the other a jr, and the coaches basically have ignored them, then again, not surprising since there is a 1st rd draft pick and a high end d-1 baseball player, both jrs at HHS and neither have heard a peep from USM coaches since May.
This was a 10 win team handed over on a silver platter. The players were in place, the systems on both sides of the ball were in place, just go with what got them to the dance last year. Instead, they have gone square peg, round hole.
