Former Auburn coach Gus Malzahn has agreed to take over the vacant head football coach position at UCF, sources tell CBS Sports’ Dennis Dodd. Malzahn, 55, will replace Josh Heupel, who left to take the Tennessee job on Jan. 27 on the heels of former Knights athletic director Danny White accepting the same position with the Volunteers.
Malzahn was 68-35 in eight seasons at Auburn from 2013-20. Dodd previously reported the news of UCF zeroing in on Malzahn for its vacant position on Sunday night.
