Sunburn â The morning read of whatâs hot in Florida politics â 6.3.21
Good Thursday morning.
A top-of-Sunburn birthday shoutout to my brother from another mother,Â
Reggie Cardozo. Florida and D.C. politics know Reggie as a former Obama White House staffer and a top-flight political strategist, but I know him as a dedicated husband to
Stephanie, father to
Fallon, and
Sutton James, and a trusted friend to many. He’s also my boat buddy, a fellow connoisseur of Bloody Marys and dirty martinis, and just funny as hell.
Happy birthday, brother.

Florida agreed to a three-year extension with head football coach Dan Mullen on Tuesday, according to the
Under the new contract, Mullen will receive $7.6 million annually beginning in 2022. His deal will carry through the 2027 season.
That will make him the fifth-highest paid coach in FBS and third-highest in the SEC, per
USA Today. Within the conference, he trails Alabama s Nick Saban ($9.3 million) and LSU s Ed Orgeron ($8.9 million). Dan has done a tremendous job in his three seasons at Florida, and we are fortunate to have someone with his obvious talents and head coaching experience leading our football program, athletic director Scott Stricklin said of the move. I look forward to working alongside him to support his vision for Gators football and our student-athletes for many years.
