SECCountry.com reported that:

“First-year coach Dan Mullen and his staff have a different approach to scholarship offers than the previous regime.

There’s been a change in philosophy under Mullen & Co. They are much more aggressive when it comes to offers and already have made a few splashes on the recruiting trail.”
