Dan Mullen addressed local media members at MSU media days today. Here’s the most important quotes from his press conference:
On the quarterback competition:
Mullen: I’ll be thrilled to see who our starting quarterback will be.
— Michael Bonner (@MikeBBonner) August 1, 2016
Me too Dan, me too.
Mullen: Biggest thing we need is who can make the average plays consistently.
— Michael Bonner (@MikeBBonner) August 1, 2016
“Until someone separate themself, the competition will go on,” Mullen said of QB battle.
— David H Murray (@DawgsBiteMag) August 1, 2016
Mullen places no timetable on the QB competition: Could go into October.
— Michael Bonner (@MikeBBonner) August 1, 2016
That could be up to 8 games and a bye week into the season. That’s a long time for a quarterback competition.
“I know they have talents and can do exceptional things. I’d love to make the decision as soon as it defines itself.”
— David H Murray (@DawgsBiteMag) August 1, 2016
On the switch from a 4-3 to a 3-4 scheme for the defense:
On defense set in 3-4, “You have to be very multiple. The scheme has to fit the players.”
— David H Murray (@DawgsBiteMag) August 1, 2016
“We played a lot of 3-4 last year so I think guys are comfortable with it. But I also think we’re going to be a lot 4-3.”
— David H Murray (@DawgsBiteMag) August 1, 2016
On Jeffery Simmons:
Mullen on Jeffery Simmons: It will be a great relief for him to go out there and play football.
— Ben Wait (@bcwait) August 1, 2016
Mullen says it will be a relief for Jeffery Simmons to just go play football again. Says it’ll be a release for him.
