<p>MLDWoody, what happened with Mallet was not far from what you suggested. RR told Mallett that he was going to implement the spread immediately and that he would most likely not be a good fit for his system. I am sure he did not tell him to leave, but Mallet got the hint. Had RR told him that he was going to run an offense that suited his style and played to his strength, Mallet would have stayed. There is no way Mallett would leave a program like Michigan and lose a year of eligibility if RR reassured him. That did not happen, Mallet left.</p>
