Dan has been trying to leave since Bama loss in 2014. He hasn't been the same coach. He got lazy and didn't want to recruit.
He couldn't ever beat Bama or win Big games on the road. Lost last 3 out of 4 vs TSUN.
Dan had maxed out at MSU, he couldn't take us any further than we have already been.
He won't last 5 years at UF unless he wins the SEC.

We have a great team coming back next year and a great fan base to support the new coach.
Ou AD, JC will find us a great hire, have faith. Look what he did in Baseball and Basketball.
A concern is the 18 and 19 recruiting classes and how we hold it together.

The future is bright in SVegas.

One thing is for sure, YOUR bitching is going to be proven now. Bend over fish.

He was our best coach ever but got burned out. It happens.
But he is leaving with a bad taste in our mouth though. It did not have to be this way. We gave him his first shot and deserved better. But life is not fair.... especially not fair for him when we beat the junk out of him next year.
It will be personal.!!

Honestly I'm fine with it

if you had told me in 2008 that the next 9 years would look like what we got with Mullen, I would have been elated. He's done his time and I wish him nothing but the best. I think he represented us well and we are a bigger name across the country than we were when he got here. I have 100% faith that Cohen will sign the best available personnel who are willing to fill the void. There's never a good time to lose a coach like Dan but here and now is up the list some.

Yeah, they're pretty touchy down there. Didn't McElwain win two East titles and still got fired? After the honeymoon's over, and it won't be a long one, Dan better be producing.

FL fans ain't gonna put up with the sheepish look and pitiful excuses when they lose to a lesser opponent or get mauled by a rival so how long will it be before he burns out there?
