According to the Zach Smith podcast, it is down to Florida not being an elite job anymore. We don't sell out our stadium, and recruiting has fallen ever since Urban left..
Why did Dan get the job in November 2017? Well simple according to Smith, Scott Frost didn't want the job(no mention of the circumtances at his alma mater).
According to Smith, Florida was a top 5 job in 2005, but no longer in '18.(Yeah those Zook years sure were great)
Dan Mullen didn't get the job based off his on field results. He got the job because he was our best option(I agree with that last part)
Mullen will never be a great coach, or recruiter because he doesn't have swagger(Top ten classes aren't good enough I guess. Neither is a top ten finish in year one of a rebuild).
So according to a guy who got fired for drinking, and allegedly beating his wife just can't seem to see as a top program anymore. I guess we should trust his judgement and settle for good not great seasons. Thanks for tempering our expectations Zach.
I think I'll trust Stricklin and Dan over you though.
Got any beer drinking advice, I hear you have ample experience in that department.
