Dan Mullen knows how to take a bad situation and make it worse. The Florida head coach is fresh off a five-dollar ass-whooping in the world’s largest outdoor cocktail party. There was no shortage of criticism, then, he invited more.
Mullen’s quote is even more puzzling juxtaposed next to Kirby Smart’s remarks from his postgame press conference. “I believe you better always be recruiting, always be recruiting, because if you’re not, somebody else is.”
The biggest knock on Mullen at Florida has always been his inability to recruit with the big dogs.
