He chose West Virginia because he stated, “it wasn’t too far from home and the program was rebuilding.”

Mullen went to West Virginia University after high school, and was an active member of the Mountaineers football team from 1981 until 1984. After his freshman year, Mullen considered a transfer but decided to hold the course after talking to Risha. Mullen was an reserve tight end for the Mountaineers However, the player continued to put in his best effort to get the chance to play more. Mullen was able to play in 11 games throughout the season of 1983, scoring 19 receptions, gaining the score of 343 yards with three touchdowns.
