Mullen

might be the next Spurrier...Love how this guy talks about the game....he can really coach and develop players...he will bring in the coaches. Mullen is on a mission to win....if he keeps going this way we will dominate again. I love his attitude...I've always has respect for him but not like now. Him and his staff are killing it....can't wait to see what they are going to do. #GoGators

This season had some shades of 1990 in it. We had a huge immediate improvement, we beat some teams we had struggled against up to that point, and we saw how bright the future was going to be.

Watching his face during games and in public speaking, you can tell he's got brains and a feel for the game as demonstrated by his timely play calling.

So, can we say that ya'll are glad that I brought him in, against some moronic opposition?

Wait now, you get credit for promoting and harping on all the reasons why we should have picked Dan the Man back when we were all looking at "Cow Chip Kelly" BUT, you "brought him in"???? Lol, are you Stricklin behind that handle? Nah, because you predate him.....so are you Spurrier? Haha.

I wanted Kelly but glad we got Mullen.

I have a man crush on Kelly. But same here, we got the right guy.

 

[instaGATOR]

Okay, I'll take that as a FIRM NO x 2...

Even better is knowing that UT got stuck with a circus clown as a head coach and UGLY isn't really any better off with Bowl-cut-kid. What I have felt for the past week was if we could get to 10 wins in 2018 and a NY6 bowl win, got the MU-never-beaten monkey off of our back, all with pretty close to the same players we had for 2017, then UF should be SUING the ever living hell out of Jim McElwain for sheer outright incompetence and breach of contract. That man flat out refused to try to coach this team if we had the talent on hand to do what Mullen did this year. You have to TRY to be that bad as we were in 2017. Like Tennessee levels of working hard to suck more.
