He now ranks third in the powerhouse South- eastern Conference in average salary, behind Alabama’s Nick Saban and LSU’s Ed Orgeron. “Dan has done a tremendous job in his three seasons at Flor- ida, and we are fortunate to have someone with his obvious talents and head coaching expe- rience leading our football pro- gram,” Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin said in a statement. “I look forward to working alongside him to support his vi- sion for Gators football and our student-athletes for many years.” Stricklin also gave two-year contract extensions to men’s basketball coach Mike White and women’s hoops coach Cam Associated Press Newbauer.
