Frost headed to Lincoln??? A good hire for the Gators.

I’m on board with the hire. The guys who were decommiting from UF before are on board.

Hopefully Florida fans will treat Mullen’s wife better than the first time they were in Gainesville. We are a bit more humble now than we were back then.

Now let’s go crush those Dukies tonight!

The first thing I want to hear Mullen address is upgrading our strength and conditioning program, it has been a disgrace since Meyer left.

UF didn't want to pay him head coach money, so he went somewhere else. Turned a mediocre team into a contender. Think of how much it has cost them to hire him back. Money well spent.

This day’s been more fun than National Signing Day.

These coaches a casual fan knows. One has to be hardcore to know these HS kids signing with what team. The only time I paid attention to Signing Day was when Ole Miss landed that sick recruiting class and one second later everyone was screaming Ole Miss cheated and you know what they were right. LOL!

Don't forget Dak's game against the Chargers.

Actually u are wrong.

When Prescott played MSU was #1 in the Country for a few weeks.
Something State had never achieved in its history.

Hate to see Mullen gone, but he did quite well for a small SEC school.

If they can also borrow a couple of grad students from the law school and recruit a good team parole officer, they might have a good season next year.

Jeremy Foley was a cheapskate.

And UF also better be ready to pony up for Mike White.

Mullin (5-2 in bowl games) averaged almost 8 wins a year at MSU; Gators will expect an average of 12 or 13 wins a year :)

Doing something good at MSU could be could be considered doing something great. And Mullen did a lot of good at MSU, a tough place to recruit and compete with Bama and LSU and others always after the state's best prospects.
