The Florida Gators are parting ways with Dan Mullen, according to multiple reports. On3Sports’ Matt Zenitz was first to the news, closely followed by ESPN’s Chris Low.
Mullen’s Gators are 5-6, and fell to Missouri in a 24-23 overtime loss on Saturday. They have lost their last five games against Power Five teams, went 2-6 in SEC play this year, and are just 5-9 in their last 14 games, dating back to an 0-3 close to the 2020 season.
That 5-9 skid proved too much for Florida to grin and bear despite the success that came before it, with Mullen running up a 29-6 record in his first 35 games as head coach in Gainesville and collecting wins over Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, and Miami on the way.
