I (iG) like the 2 new coaching hires,,, a lot!
Dan Mullen announced the addition to his staff of two veteran coaches who have
more than 60 years of combined coaching experience,
Greg Knox and
Sal Sunseri.

I want coach Knox to get busy fixing the Gator's Special Teams. He'll already have great kickers to work with, but the cover and return teams need work.... BTW, Knox was the 2017 interim MsSt HC in their recent bowl win over UL. His last 3 jobs were at Miss, AU, and MsSt, so he has very solid SEC experience.
Sunseri - 2013-14 FSU, then 2015-17 Oakland Raiders. He's also coached at TN and LSU. The Gator front 7 on defense should be pretty darn happy with this hire, I know I am!
Whichever positions those 2 end up coaching, they are both top quality coaches imo, so welcome to the Gator Nation guys!

====================
YeeeeeHAW!!! DE CeCe is coming back for his Sr season.
I wonder if Mullen's hiring of Sunseri's had anything to do with his decision???
LT Ivey, and any other Jr, still has until Jan. 15th to decide to stay or to leave early for the NFL.
Gator E-D's so far (Jr early departures) include:
K Pineiro, DT Bryan, & the indefinitely suspended WR Callaway.
