“Thank you Gator Nation for all your support for the program this week,” Mullen said. “Thankfully, everyone impacted is recovering well and has experienced mild to no symptoms. I have also tested positive for COVID and have received world that my test has been confirmed.
“I’m continuing to self-isolate from my family, who all remain healthy, and am following all the guidelines set forth by UF Health, the CDC and our public health officials. I am proud of how our players, staff and campus community have navigated this unprecedented time and hope all continue to be safe.”
Florida’s game Saturday against LSU was postponed due to an outbreak within the Gators program that has resulted in more than 20 positive tests. Florida’s upcoming schedule includes Missouri on October 31 and Georgia on November 7.
You can be sure the coronabros will have bloody fingers pumping out columns on this Mullen news since it comes just a week after the coach said he wanted to pack The Swamp with 90,000 fans for this week’s game against LSU.
Never forget they’re rooting for COVID to hit coaches like Dan.
Dan Mullen tested positive!…. That was the breaking news. ESPn broke to the news studio as if it was something major to say a coach tested positive…. Are we really this incompetent? We literally just did this with Nick Saban. I just don’t know what we’re doing
Lol
Pack Dan Mullins’ house!
zzzzzzzz
They should break in and say Bobby Bowden doing just fine and oh yeah 91 years old and maybe Saban too on the sidelines coaching 69 years old break in for that one too and oh yeah our President doing 3 rallys today 74 years old
Good. There’s a 99.5% chance he’ll be OK, and it’s another step toward herd immunity.
I wonder….if he had cancer, would it be the lead ESPN story? Of course we know the answer…no.
The Corona fear porn continues.
