Florida head coach Jon Sumrall has his offensive coordinator. On Thursday, the Gators announced the hiring of OC Buster Faulkner.
Upon his hiring, Sumrall promised his Florida teams would feature an explosive offense. He sees Faulkner delivering on that in Gainesville.
“Buster is one of the most innovative offensive coaches in football and I couldn’t be happier for him to join our staff,” Sumrall said in a program release. “Throughout his impressive career, not only has Buster led some of the highest-scoring offenses in the country, but he’s also shown the ability to design and implement his offenses to the strengths of his players. There is not a doubt in my mind that Buster will have our offense lighting up the scoreboard.”
Faulkner arrives in Gainesville after 3 seasons as Georgia Tech’s offensive coordinator. Collectively over the 2023-25 seasons, Faulkner’s GT offense ranks first in the ACC in rushing (197.8), second in total offense (437.7), third in passing efficiency (144.1) and fifth in scoring offense (31.0).
“I’m extremely excited to get to work under Jon Sumrall,” Faulkner said via UF. “He’s a proven winner and that’s what excites me the most about this opportunity. Florida is place where we can compete for national championships and I can’t wait to meet the players and get this thing rolling!”
Faulkner played quarterback at Valdosta State and Texas A&M-Commerce. He got his coaching start as a student assistant at Valdosta State in 2005. In addition to Georgia Tech, Faulkner has also been an offensive coordinator at Valdosta State, Murray State, Middle Tennessee, Arkansas State and Southern Miss. He was a quality control assistant at Georgia from 2020-22, helping the Bulldogs win 2n national championships.
