Here's what I've discovered from long years of following football and football-associated media.

The better the football is, the more the media is liked and appreciated.

The worse/mediocre it is, the more the media is critiqued negatively.

Not saying Mixon is good or even average.

All I'm saying is that he has the absolute pleasure of being the media presence for one of the most boring and UN-innovative head coaches in fugging league history.  Which has to be a damned difficult thing to create "excitement" when announcing.

I can buy that.

Again, I'm not a huge Mixon hater, but what I remember most about his hiring was that he was a color commentator for basketball at the time, so he switched both sports and specialties.

I also remember that he got the job during the era of Jerry Richardson, and that via both inside info and anecdotal evidence we know that Richardson was willing to give people jobs and promotions into positions for which they weren't actually qualified if he liked them or they were loyal.

So here we are...

I have to admit he didn't particularly impress me in the previous games.

I think he's going to get the same quasi redshirt season Haynes did last year.

He has the speed, but he's going to need to bulk up to be consistently effective
