ORLANDO, Fla. – The University of Central Florida has offered Gus Malzahn its head football coaching position, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Malzahn, 55, was fired in December by Auburn, where he led the Tigers to a 68-35 record over the last eight seasons. The next UCF coach will replace Josh Heupel, who recently left to become the Tennessee Volunteers’ head coach.
Malzahn has been linked to the UCF job ever since the school hired athletics director Terry Mohajir, who worked with Malzahn at Arkansas State.
