Mandatory Credit: Denny Medley-Imagn Images UNLV hired former Florida head coach Dan Mullen to the same post, multiple media outlets reported Thursday.
Mullen replaces Barry Odom, who spent the past two seasons with the Rebels before taking the head coach position at Purdue over the weekend.
Mullen, 52, posted a 103-61 record during his time as head coach with Mississippi State (2009-17) and the Gators (2018-21). He was 29-9 during his first three seasons with Florida before mustering a 5-6 mark in his final year in Gainesville.
Mullen has spent his time away from the sideline by working as a college football analyst and color commentator for ESPN/ABC.
Odom compiled a 19-8 record in two seasons with the Rebels. He guided the team to consecutive Mountain West championship game appearances, including a 21-7 loss to Boise State last Friday.
