Former Florida coach Will Muschamp will get a second chance in the Southeastern Conference after agreeing to become South Carolina's next football coach.
A person with direct knowledge of the decision said Muschamp will take over the program and hopefully bring some stability to a program that saw longtime coach Steve Spurrier resign in midseason.
The person says Muschamp could be introduced as early as Monday. The person spoke to The Associated Press Sunday on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been finalized and the hire has not been announced.
The 44-year-old Muschamp spent this past season as Auburn's defensive coordinator after being fired as coach of the Gators. He is the second straight Florida coach to hold South Carolina's permanent job, following Spurrier, who left in mid-October after 10-plus seasons in charge.
