ESPN is reporting that the Gators are finalizing a deal with Dan Mullen to be the next head football coach.

I mean Dan Mullen is fine but I just don't know if he can take us to championship level. One good thing is he can find a good QB most of the time

I'm glad the rumors are gone for awhile. A nice surprise would be a pleasant change of pace.

We need someone who can hire staff to develop a QB above all else. There are a few available.

with coaching carousel getting bigger and bigger daily im afraid we thought we couldnt wait till frost makes up his mind and be left without a chair when the music stops. probably a lateral move in the end but we know he can develop an sec offense and that is definitely an improvement over the last 7 years.

It is what it is...at least the dude paid his dues.

My initial reaction, again, is what a waste of years hiring unprovens.

Man I really wanted Frost but if the reports are true he has already agreed to a deal with Nebraska.

According to FootballScoop.Com, Mullen has asked offensive line coach John Hevesy, wide receivers coach Billy Gonzales, and defensive coordinator Todd Grantham to join him in Gainesville. FootballScoop also noted all three are expected to make the move.

Yep. Grantham worries me because he blitzes too much IMO. No Percy here to fight with Billy G this time.

Any rumors on who the offensive coordinator might be.

Thankfully, Gators hire Dan Mullen instead of Chip Kelly

The talking heads seem to like the idea. We shall see. A QB would certainly be nice.

Why Florida’s Mullen hire makes a ton of sense

i think this is going to be epic hire for us even though it may not have been the flashy one... call it intuition.. but im posting this today...
as a mark of my belief.. i watched that clip and a few things just scream at me.. 1. his body language.. he genuinely looks excited to be here..2. ive said it before relentless is what we need.. 3 he knows EXACTLY what we expect and understands how to get there. 4 he will pull the Tebow card and use it to the fullest extent 5. he fired pretty much everybody from the previous staff and that is exactly what needed to happen.. ive not been sold on shannon as a dc since we started taking steps backwards.. things are looking up and im all aboard for this.. ill get some more perspective by NSD.. but i feel positive going forward..
