GAINESVILLE — Florida coach Dan Mullen fired secondary coaches Ron English and Torrian Gray as the Gators’ struggling defense looks to bounce back in 2021.
The news was first reported by 247Sports’ Thomas Goldkamp and confirmed by an Orlando Sentinel source. Mullen is shaking up his defensive staff on the heels of a 55-20 loss to Oklahoma during the Cotton Bowl to complete a disappointing season.
The Gators’ defense reached historic lows, with the secondary a primary culprit. UF allowed 28 touchdown passes — most in the SEC by a margin of four — as the defense yielded an average of 30.
