Well. They all wanted to be here. But he wanted to be HERE. They would have taken Bammer, or Barn, or Ugly, or Tinerc, or Penn State or Miami, so would Mullinz had it been offered, but Mullins WANTED to be HERE. And he has a sense of urgency that the past to chuckleheads didnt. They thought it would happen so long as they worked some and relied on us "being Florida" especially in recruiting.
This has been the biggest difference maker for me. As you know, I was not a fan of hiring Mullen, because of his football philosophy, and what I had always perceived was a lacking of charisma and recruiting abilities. I have changed my tune on the charisma and recruiting aspect of his coaching abilities. He has more than won me over for exactly what you posted here. Mullen truly
gets it. From the second he stepped off the plane he has been the Gators #1 cheerleader, and a proud representative of UF. And I don't know if anyone in America has out-recruited him since he's been here. We may not get all of our targets this year, but I am very optimistic that in the future we will. The guy is working his butt off, and I'm truly excited this offseason for the first time in many, many years.
I don't know what we'll look like on the field, but I am beginning to believe that Mullen is going to prove me wrong there, as well.
I can't wait!
