Dan Mullen’s flip of Emory Jones making big waves through social media

Published:
Dan Mullen’s first big win as head coach of the Gators is certainly making waves.
Emory Jones, an impressive dual-threat QB prospect for 2018, announced that he is headed to the Gators after originally being committed to Ohio State. Jones’ decision came down to Florida, Florida State, and Ohio State, and he should be a great fit in Mullen’s system.
Not only does Jones give the Gators a player to build around, but there is the additional element of Jones joining Mullen, who was Urban Meyer’s OC at Florida. This time, Meyer’s loss was Mullen’s gain, and you can bet fans will remember this signing for a while.
Needless to say, it didn’t take long for the big decision to make its way through social media:

Whoa! Well done @FloridaGators & @CoachDanMullen securing this one… Four-star Under Armour All-American QB Emory Jones (No. 20 in ESPN 300; Franklin, Ga./Heard Co.) decommits from Ohio State and signs with Florida. #earlysigningperiod

Emory Jones is a huge get for Dan Mullen. His skill set is a perfect fit for what Mullen wants to do with his offense.

Florida hopefully got their guy at QB. Watch the tape, Emory Jones is a true playmaker.
