After six seasons at Mississippi State, Dan Mullen is heading to Florida to be its next football coach. Mullen's 69-46 record for the Bulldogs makes him the second-winningest coach in school history, behind only Jackie Sherrill. The Bulldogs are 8-4 (4-4 SEC) this season.

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!
We must have gotten Frost then.
Better Nebraska get Frost than FSU.
The first thing I want to hear Mullen address is upgrading our strength and conditioning program, it has been a disgrace since Meyer left.
With a be new baby they may be welcoming a return to family.
good hire for Gators??? maybe...great QB developer, decent head coach who never did anything great at MSU...
This day’s been more fun than National Signing Day.
Because it's MSU.
Jackie Sherill disagrees...
First Fitzgerald’s ankle, now this.
Bad week for the Dawgs.
I’ll take Frost. Or Matt Campbell from Iowa State
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.
