Y’all…cmon. The fan base’s knives were out with Mullen. Many of the reasons were silly (he embarrassed us dressing like Darth Vader). He could coach, didn’t think he needed to recruit. He wasn’t landing the likes of DJ Lagway. First thing Billy said “this is a talent acquisition business.” And the people cheered. The look back on Mullen is revisionist history.
Exactly!!! Trask never would have seen the field if franks didn’t get hurt. Toney was explosive but didn’t hardly play lay till his senior year cause of injuries. I am with you bud
Mullen’s recruiting class was in the toilet when he got fired even though Florida had just almost won the SEC the prior year. So they would have struggled for several years. And he clearly quit: see performances against SC, Sanford, etc - also the way he spoke at press conferences suggested this.
For a point of reference, go back and watch the Tennessee game in Napier's first year after Smack kicked that long FG. Watch the reaction between Derek Wingo and Napier. It's like Napier is giggling on the sideline with Wingo like they are buddies or something. He wants a roster full of friends....not cold blooded dogs (by dogs u know what I mean)
Franz!!! Mullen didn't want to recruit!!!!! He wanted to play more golf than recruiting!!! We had one clown that wouldn't recruit, then we get a coach that thinks he's the smartest one in the room!
This is nuts lol Franz says Musdump would possibly have gotten better , he got poop canned at SC . Sometimes I believe these guys are lost in the Frey. They need to get better memories. Dan Mullen should have had the same support given to Napier. This is 100% why Mullen is gone.
Napier has absolutely 0 fire in him and we wonder why our players don’t play with any enthusiasm or high energy? Napier literally said that playing Miss st on the road is a difficult matchup even though Toledo just beat them by 3 TDs at home! Why not get the players hyped up by telling them it’s time to go take care of business and leave no one standing and it’s time to destroy the opponent? Napier probably told the players “don’t tackle them to hard we don’t want to break one of their nails. It doesn’t matter if we win or lose this game as long as yall are better men off the field!” When in reality he needs to give them a killer mentality! Napier should have been fired last season and now we will make the next head coach come in and clean up the worst run team in UF history!
Will trey Wilson play again this year??? If he’s out we are dead in the water. I’m not saying out cause of injury I’m saying we are going to lose the good players we do have. With Mullens play calling ability we could be a play off contender with this team. We have talent just no coaching!!
Becoming Vandy is a overreaction. We beat kentucky 33 straight yrs and now they've won 3 straight. Tennessee 20 years of mediocrity they hired the right guy and got it together quickly. Georgia 40 years of irrelevant now there a dynasty. JUST HIRE THE RIGHT GUY AND FLORIDA FOOTBALL WILL GET BACK ON TRACK (LANE KIFFIN)

Yea but when he dressed like vader they beat georgia.
Mullen didn't recruit pitts toney and didn't play Trask until a broken leg happened with franks, please stop
Exactly!!! Trask never would have seen the field if franks didn’t get hurt. Toney was explosive but didn’t hardly play lay till his senior year cause of injuries. I am with you bud
I wish I could be a fly on the wall when Loren meets billy man that will be interesting!!!! Lol
Franz i agree, should have kept Mullen until you had a long-term plan figured out!

I love this crew. I’m gonna subscribe to gatorbait.

Not saying I wish Mullen was here or want him
Again lol but damn this is bad cause I see that talent!! It’s just awful coaching and inability to adapt
Franz is soooooo wrong about Mullen. Mullen couldn't even win with his own players he won with Mcelwains players outside of a few transfers
It can when you hire lil' boi HC's! 🤣
When you make millions of dollars a year you deserve no sympathy point blank period!
Buddy...........please stop picking those winners constantly!? Nervous tick ? Stop!
