Nah, I rooted for him in philly. Once he went to San Fran I didn’t care anymore. I do think he’s going to do great at UCLA, great spot to recruit to.

Mullen is done. Schiano is not going to happen.

Tennessee should go after Tee Martin and use the money they’d save on awesome coordinators.

Yeah, Mullen to Florida is now official, and after Tennessee was flooded with complaints and protests today after the rumor got out they've announced they are not going considering Schiano.

Per footballscoop, who's usually pretty good at this stuff:

Ole Miss: Per Rebel Grove (via Neal McCready), the school is taking the interim tag off Matt Luke and will make him the school’s permanent coach moving forward.

After the Greg Schiano debacle, and being turned down by Duke's David Cutcliffe, Tennessee have now apparently set their sites on Oklahoma State's Mike Gundy.
