UCF wasn't going to offer another another Defense First Pro Set style coach after having O'leary for so long.
That was spin/lies from the Schiano camp when he expected an offer & it didn't happen.
Mullen would be a Home Run Hire for you guys. The only reason he wasn't hired at Florida over Muschamp is that the Bull Gator Donors didn't like his arrogant prick attitude but he is a damn good Football Coach. He just hates the dealing w the media and the kissing boosters butts part of the HC...
He'll be able to recruit South FL talent for you guys but he has never called a play in his life or coordinated a Defense. He's essentially an enthusiastic cheerleader that will be overly reliant on keeping quality coordinators
