Florida football set to hire Greg McMahon as special teams analyst
Summary

The Florida Gators are expected to add Greg McMahon as their special teams analyst. McMahon brings over four decades of coaching experience, including roles as a special teams coordinator at several colleges and the NFL’s New Orleans Saints. His hiring comes as the Gators prepare for their 2026 season under new head coach Jon Sumrall, who previously led the Tulane Green Wave to the College Football Playoff. Sumrall aims to revitalize the program after a disappointing 2025 season, which saw Florida finish 4-8 and resulted in the firing of coach Billy Napier. The Gators’ season opener is scheduled for September 5 against the Florida Atlantic Owls.
