This quote from our own Gatorzone raises Mullen's standing among candidates by a factor of 'Wow.'
If he has this kind of insight about Meyer, he can manage anybody. The Gators lost three consecutive games in the middle of the season, a first for a Meyer-coached team. The third loss was to Mississippi State and Dan Mullen, Meyer’s offensive coordinator at UF for four seasons. Before the game, Mullen reminded everyone that Meyer took losses harder than most and not to expect his former boss to hang around forever because of his intense personality. “I don't know if you'll see Urban catch up to Bobby Bowden or Joe Paterno,’’ said Mullen, one of nine former Meyer assistants to move on and become head coaches. “Before he gets close to coach Bowden, he'll sail away.” A. Leon Polhill, Gator "I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, and I did. I said I didn't know." - Mark Twain -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
