South Carolina’s Will Muschamp is reportedly about to get a major payday.
No, not for the work he’s done getting the Gamecocks to 6-2, but from his former employer, the now-floundering Florida Gators.
ESPN’s Darren Rovell tweeted what Florida still owes Muschamp and pointed out he’s about to get a $787,500 payment. That was hours before Florida reportedly fired current coach Jim McElwain.

Muschamp went 28-21 in Gainesville, with an 11-win team that lost the Sugar Bowl.
