Florida coach Dan Mullen fired secondary coaches Ron English and Torrian Gray, according to a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity Friday because the moves hadn’t been made public. 247Sports first reported the firings.
The 10th-ranked Gators (8-4) allowed 30.8 points a game in 2020, their most since giving up 41.2 over six games in 1917, and the secondary was a significant part of the problem.
“Why is this guy leading a [Florida] program? He doesn’t seem fit to do so.”
