When Napier talked about how important the line of scrimmage is in football in general and the SEC in particular and put emphasis on running the ball it sounded a lot like Will Muschamp talking
anyone who is slightly aware and somewhat honest with themselves has the exact same concerns.

It is not the first time a$$sniffers compete for a NC.
yeah but it is the first time that Saban has looked mortal, and perhaps thinking about retirement, and ugly has been number one for most of the season. prior to the championship game it looked like ugly had the possibility of being heir apparent preparing to go on another Alabama like run well we had the hunchback bragging about four last seasons.

It’s interesting to read Saban’s comments about Napier. He describes his attention to detail as “great.” Everything else about Napier is either “good” or “very good.”

I suppose that beats unprecedented. The last three staffs here have been unprecedented in a way that isn’t at all desirable.

As much as I hate everything related to Dwags, we have Beetle Bailey to thank for Stricklin opening up the wallet and finally doing what we should’ve done years ago.

The fact that we’ve embarrassed ourselves by being so horrifically out-talented several times in Jax since he’s been there only helped get things moving in the right direction.

Napier has lots of room to grow as a coach. Anything not yet “great” about his approach has to evolve and improve. Saban was willing to change it up at Bama while Billy was there, and Napier should be willing to do the same. If not, his legacy will be getting the infrastructure caught up with our rivals if nothing else.

If getting our infrastructure caught up is all he accomplishes, I'd argue it was still a good hire.

I didnt know he is Mormon til I saw his family get off the plane yesterday. They believe in maybe the craziest story of any religion. Kinda hard to take him seriously. Will his family wear gator gear to games or will it be those cult ish looking dresses and hair styles? No offense to any Mormons in here. Nvm idc if you are offended. That **** is crazy.
You think Napier is looking to add some Sister Wives to his staff?

Dude, just STFU. We get it, you don't like the hire. The mood is actually pretty good around here since this terrific hire, then we have to listen to you.

Go have a Coke and smile - you're the biggest hater left.

No offense to any of you Mormons, but you do realize you can’t spell Mormons without moms. So cough up all the sordid details about the things you did with your mom.

Napier isn't Mormon anyway. Brooks is just a prick.

Stricklin made it clear he's open to the changes that are coming, no matter the cost.
"He gives such a compelling reason to why these things are going to help make the Gators better," Stricklin said. "It's not just, 'Hey, we need this because.' It was, 'We need this because' and then he goes through a detailed plan of what the pieces are, how they fit together and why that's going to matter.
"When someone can explain why they need resources, it makes it really easy to want to invest in that."
The fact that it takes someone like Sling Blade to instruct the AD of a P5 school in the SEC (not named Vandy or UK) where only football should matter or does matter, on how to run a dept. and what you need to be successful is in and of itself a complete and total embarrassment. You have to ask an expert what the problem is when hundreds of experts can't solve the problem.
What a moron. "Gosh, I did not know the organization needed more resources. Do they do this at other winning programs coach?"

I heard him say they are always evaluating the program. So Mr AD, you do not compare your program's infrastructures to other top programs? You are going to pretend you did not know better? You do not talk with other out of conference ADs? Are you sure then that you gave Dumb Dan everything he needed?

Perhaps you'd like Swamp Gas better? My fingers are twitching when reading your posts lately.
