Throughout each of their preseasons, regular seasons and postseasons, Mississippi State’s coaches live in their own bubble within Bulldog athletics. Preparation, execution and review are their priorities, time spent working on their own team with few free moments to worry about anyone else’s.
That’s part of what makes Road Dawgs – MSU’s annual road trip tour of coaches in their short offseasons – such a unique thing. Seeing football coach Dan Mullen, men’s basketball coach Ben Howland and women’s basketball coach Vic Schaefer in the same room, on the same stage and wearing the same polo is sort of an odd thing.
