t's somewhat ironic, no? I mean, the whole purpose of the special counsel is to have a prosecutor from outside the government and outside of the normal chain of command because inherent conflicts render the Justice Department incapable of handling it. So, now the special counsel is a close friend (mentor/mentee relationship) with the star witness, who by his own admission leaked the memos at least in part to engineer the appointment of a special counsel. Only in Washington. You can't make this stuff up.

If Mueller does not resign it calls his credibility into question. The appearance of impropriety is unavoidable, in light of Comey's testimony. Comey, by his own admission, leaked his FBI work product, through a friendly third-party, to the press with the intent to have a special counsel appointed. How much influence did Comey have on the selection process of Mueller.
If he does not resign, the DOJ should terminate him from his position of special counsel.
