well, Dan wanted the job a few years ago when Jim got it. And he wanted PSU when Franklin got it.
Mullen may well have come to love Starkville and decided that he wants to live there forever in a world where 10-2 is the ceiling and he will be the greatest coach in program history if he can just average 8+ wins.
Or, he may still have some professional ambition left and he might think that Florida being the better program with more resources and playing in the East gives him a better chance to make it to Atlanta and maybe the CFB playoff.
I'm sure Dan is on their top 3 list, but they may want to go another route. I can see how UF not hiring him will be viewed by MSU fans as "Dan loves us and just prefers it here" though.

This is just factually incorrect.

Penn State and Notre Dame are the only two programs that scare me because those are his dream jobs.

False and here is the reason .. Megan Mullen
“There is nothing like being a Mississippi State Bulldog,” she said. “The support of fans here is so unlike anything anywhere else. It’s unbelievable. I’ve never experienced a really bad situation. The former school we were at, won two national championships there, won practically every game we played for four years there.
“It wasn’t if you won or lost. If we didn’t score 43 points or more, I was going to the grocery store in Orlando where I worked with the Golf Channel and I was driving the groceries back to Gainesville because it was that bad.”
A lot can happen, and it’s certainly unwise to rule Dan’s return to Gainesville out, it doesn’t sound like Megan will be too eager to return to Florida anytime soon.
