Dan Mullen has coached a number of talented quarterbacks and explosive offenses over the years. But UF’s first-year head coach does not plan to live in the past.
Last season’s game plan at Mississippi State will not be the blueprint for the 2018 Gators’ attack. Quarterbacks Feleipe Franks and Kyle Trask will not be expected to emulate Nick Fitzgerald, who threw for 36 touchdowns and ran for 30 more the past two seasons for the Bulldogs.
Mullen said he told Franks and Trask early on he did not expect them to change as quarterbacks — improve, yes, but not by doing things they cannot.
