Dates

[WarthogRebel]

Important dates for Mullen and his eventual crew. It took Coach Odom 34 days to put his staff together (with the Petrino fiasco). At the time I thought that was fast but looking at the dates below Mullen I hope Mullen can get his Coordinators and assistants in faster than that. Last I looked Barry already flipped 5 of our recent recruits.

CDM made it a point to say during the Q&A impromptu session outside the tent, that he was able to understand acknowledging the dates for recruiting, transfers etc. He also made it a point to say he’s been making calls ever since he signed.

He’s already contacted some highly regarded recruits and gotten interest from those recruits. I’m not worried about his ability to put a staff in place and recruiting good players. He seems to know what he’s doing and already doing it.

When a player enters a portal does that means he's off the team instantly ?

Generally No. It's up to the coach. ASU coach said he is ok with the players going into the portal and can play in the bowl game.

To add to that, a lot also enter to "test the waters" and can remove their name by a certain date if I recall. Similar to the draft.
IIRC a lot do that every year and retract.
