This is lunacy. Mullen was a home run hire for UF, and if they fire him this year or next they are the dumbest hiring group in college football.
Have you seen Mississippi States program from 91 to present?
Jackie Sherrill....a really fine (some say great) coach. He went 74-76 there.
Sylvester Croom..21-38
Joe Morehead 18-19 and Leach is 9-11.
That's a 46% win percentage for those guys from 91 to present. A lot of guys who know a lot of football, had different philosophies, perspectives, systems, etc.
Mullen went 69-46 there...60% win percentage and built it from absolute ashes as poor Croom just didn't have the goods to deal with or get that group where they needed to be. That is winning 50% of your SEC games in the West during 09-17...right in the middle of Alabama's resurgence and also during LSU's run with Les Miles. He literally made that program relevant again.
At UF he's won 70% of his games. There is no question he is one of the top HCs in collegiate football today.
