On today's SEC Teleconference, Mullen talked about much the same thing he has all week.
But he also made a comment that stood out about Todd Grantham, calling him "the top defensive coordinator in college football."
In the past he's said "One of the-" so a bit more of a statement today.
Plenty of coaches will make glowing and rose colored remarks about their coordinators as a show of support. But Mullen actually gave some substance to his comments, praising Grantham's in-game adjustments and ability to coach defense from front to back.
Yes told me same in my one-on-one preseason interview, too. I had to replay the tape, and yep!
I love the aggressive play. I love how hungry our players look when they are on the field. Hopefully we can keep him at UF for years to come.
