Florida offensive line coach Phil Trautwein always hoped to return to Gainesville and coach the Gators. The left tackle for the school's 2006 and 2008 national title teams joined head coach Jon Sumrall's staff in December after six seasons at Penn State.

Much also has changed since the Gators’ new offensive line coach attended his first game in the Swamp in 2001 or lined up at left tackle for the 2006 and 2008 national champions.
