UF Announces Dan Mullen as HC $36 Million over 6 Years

I hope Mullen wins.

That doesn't change the fact his record as a ranked team against ranked team as an HC reeks of ass, and if Timothy Richard Tebow wasn't born into a Gator household, Mullen might be an OC at some D2 school somewhere if he was lucky.

This is alot like McElstain demanding to choose his own way, his own boy toy OC, and risking his entire professional career on it.

Stricklin may not survive to correct this mistake. He doesn't have the "he's one of us thing" going on and a NC under his belt (albeit not his coach) like Fooley did. Many top UAA HATE this hire.

What? The same ****ty ones? Or are these the good ones?

OX is correct... If your a gator your always a gator get behind our new coach and support him. It that simple... if your a true fan you have no choice.

I support firing him immediately and getting our kids a competent head coach.

Well at least I’ve forgotten what a forward pass looked like for many years now. I guess that’s prepared me for the next 5.

We will not eclipse 9 wins in DM tenure. We now have our Butch Jones. Thanks Scott.

 

[kepler]

that's a perfect example. SOS had inferior talent also and wasn't 2-29 or whatever Shyttersfull was.

Spurrier was also in the east. Again, I hate the hire but understand it because we're unable to attract the best out there. It says a lot about where the state of the program is.

 

[Chomper]

Far from a home run, this hire is more like a bunt single. It definitely does not unite or energize the fan base. Three years from now we will be right back here wondering who our next coach will be.

It does. Unfortunately.

The guy that Miami wouldn't interview.

We had the 6th best coaching staff in Florida this year, and nothing will change next year.

a single implies a hit...this is a strike out.

Stricklin should have been shown the door as soon as he suggested this hire. We are now going to be stuck in football purgatory for about 6 years, maybe longer.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Uhhhh.... yeah.... great.

Baby steps.

Just talked to Urban Meyer about Dan Mullen -- "Dan's your coach huh? He understands the lay of the land. He understands recruiting. He understands the expectations at Florida. He'll embrace it. I'm proud of him."

Brick by brick.

 

[5-Star Finger]

It appears UT is hiring a guy who failed to report child rape. So when you compare Mullen to that standard we look like winners. #silverlining

Now this is just dumb....we could top 9 wins next year. With good QB play we could even win it all!!!!

 

[RocketCityGator]

Sure, let me give you one. Spurrier was 12-20 against top 25 at Carolina. I suppose he'd be unacceptable based on that. Maybe it was the school and situation he was in limiting his upside.

Damm that some Perry Mason stuff there. Paul Drake should be all in this.

 

[RocketCityGator]

Meyer won those titles. Stop spreading lies.

33-39 vs SEC
4-29 vs ranked teams

GARBAGE!

It wasn't all Meyer. You are ignoring the offense after 2009?
