Florida Athletic Director Scott Stricklin had to get rid of his boy today. It should have come as no surprise as the Florida Gators quit on Dan Mullen more than once this year. Watch the spectacle for yourself.
SEC Shorts is going to have a field day tomorrow.

You sportsball fanatics are just as bad as grown men who play video games and watch chinese cartoons.
Florida is looking more and more like that location where one restaurant after another fails. Except for Spurrier and Meyer, most coaches have not done well at Florida.
Most Mississippi State fans will tell you that Dan had it made at State and had built a good program there.
With the Egg Bowl on Thanksgiving, we will start hearing the "Kiffin to Florida" rumors.
Mullen is a jerk.
Florida is just a big version of County Line Road.
Jags new o coordinator by next week. He is not a head guy..... he is support.
Mullen, Grantham, Hevesy, STRICKLIN.......all former Mississippi State. It's almost like Florida went shopping for a turn key staff at the Walmart in Starkville 4 years ago. Manny Diaz was the only smart one of the litter. Carpetbagger Dan couldn't compete in the SEC West and found out he couldn't compete in the SEC East either. He should retire and volunteer at Slippery Rock. We see what the Oregon Ducks got in "offensive guru" Joe Moorhead against Utah yesterday. Florida's only choice now is Lane Kiffin. Maybe Tommy Tubberville will deliver a "pine box" to the visitors locker room at halftime of Thursday nights Egg Bowl for The Lane Train to make his escape from the plantation?
Kiffin will be lucky to follow Froze at Liberty. Mullen, although I disliked him, brought State to a new level. With regularity he froze up like a high school junior facing a full count. Terrible clock manager. Too often standing there with clipboard, awe-struck like he had never been in a tight spot before.
Stricklin is lucky to still have a job.
Orgeron to Florida. lol.
Just like Tennessee USED to be great, so is/was Florida. In 10 years we'll be talking about how Alabama used to be amazing. Nothing last forever, peeps.
Just think...If Striklin had done this a year ago, Mullen could be living in Hattiesburg following the game plan of Ellis Johnson.
Orgeron and Mullen made their millions like so many others....now they can sit back, wait and buy low with some nobody team, create some success - and sell high again. Example: Kiffin went to FAU and excelled, now he's back on up the food chain.
Florida will forever have fever dreams of the late nineties.
Couldn't have happened to a more pompous, arrogant a hole. I hope penny loafers Strickland is next.
A damn Yankee
He will be all right. He was reportedly seen window shopping Sunday at the Gainesville Porsche dealership.
"Example: Kiffin went to FAU and excelled, now he's back on up the food chain."
In which alternate universe is Old Myth considered 'up the food chain'?

At least Mullen's wife can AGAIN say, "I would never go back to Florida!"
@10:13 - you think a conference USA job that pays just under a million a year is on the same level as an SEC job that pays 4.5 million? Lay off the booze, it’s too early to be as wasted as you must be.
Always amazed at the absolute insecurity that drives state college fans to bring up Ole Miss on almost any discussion about any topic. Would hate to be living your small life.
If Kiffin gets poached by Florida or Miami, I wonder if Ole Miss goes after Leach?
Good move by the South Jackson boy!
Rekon Arch Manning will even be allowed to go to Gainesville ? I think not. Lane Kiffin will stay with Ole Miss until one of two things happen. Saban retires or Arch Manning declares for the NFL. BANK IT.
"@10:13 - you think a conference USA job that pays just under a million a year is on the same level as an SEC job that pays 4.5 million?"
A coach (or professional in any other industry) who has set the bar at 'Peter Principle' is eventually going to either wind up retired or where he belonged in the first place. Those of us who are hiring authorities know that. You would not.
@11:46 What amazes me is the delusion of UMiss fans feigning relevance by
denigrating other schools. I didn't attend Umiss or MSU. For a school that claims fictious titles and reached its limits under a bible thumping whore monger coach, you should stop flattering yourselves. You think you are every school's primary rival. As an LSU fan, nope. Just another conference game. Kiffin will shake you down for more millions and when your present qb moves on, so will he after next year. Go ahead and live your small life.
Good post @ 8:01. Did you know that, now, instead of diplomas when walking the stage at OM, the president hands out penny loafers, bow ties and the business card of the nearest BMW salesman?
