Count to 10 slowly, breath deeply and take something for your menstrual cramps. He is our coach now so give him a fair chance. Layoff for now until there is an actual result to evaluate. Maybe he adheres to the Saban program building program rather than the CreteHead program. If he screws it up we will all join you at the pyre when he is burned at the stake.

I don't hate the guy or anything and if he wins then great. It's just that we went from hiring a guy who was a HCIW to a guy who was a HC at a directional school, to a guy who used to lose to directional schools, and now back to a HC from a directional school.....anyone else see my point? It makes no sense. And just because he coaches under Saban is no guarantee(see Butters/Muschamp)....I don't mind the hire if it is the back up plan but for Christ sakes take a swing for the bleachers before trying to lay down a bunt....

It is evident that he appears to be much different than his recent predecessors. Since he has now been hired and is under contract this is a time to let it play out and pull for a good guy to succeed. There is a time to 'march on Montgomery' and there is a time for patience. If or when he fails we will all light our torches, sharpen our pitchforks and meet you at BHG stadium to tar and feather Napier and Stricklin.

Mostly just lurk, but my 2 cents…
one of my biggest problems with Mullen was the stubbornness and lack of accountability, and BN seems to be wired for accountability. I don’t have the same confidence of pending success like when we hired Meyer, but certainly not resigned to doom and gloom.
As for the board, the negativity is heavy, but I’ve come to think of it as part of the charm of the place. Bigger annoyances are the political die hards that can’t keep that crap in the political forum and the occasional homophobic comments that I guess some think are needed for a sports bar atmosphere.

Straightening Out the Bow
Getting bent in the middle at the end
Every performer performs this fallacy,
Whereas when my talents I expend
I expect the audience to bow to me.

I'm cautiously optimistic, something I haven't been since Meyer was hired. Napier's offense may resemble the type of offense Muschamp ran, but I think it'll be more successful simply because Napier will actually put effort in recruiting and developing offensive players instead of treating them like an afterthought. It's still very early, but I like what I've seen so far.
Also, I do hope Donkey comes back.

Losing Recruits suck. But in the mean this does happen when changes take place. Lets get the staff in place. Some of these could be attributed to they may not know who their coach is going to be. I am also perfectly fine with him ridding himself of any potential Mullenite recruit to simply PURGE that culture from UF. I am ok with that. I am also fine with letting this process play out. So far all that I am seeing is good. Good hires, Aggressive work, and most of all perhaps Stricknine has seen the light and giving $$$$. This is something we've not had before. Most of all my Christmas came early this year after getting Coal last year. Mullen is gone along with Grantham.

Bull, this argument will fall on deaf ears because this is the fuching argument we have been hearing with ever new hire since 2011. Then what will happen is the first game of the season, we will have less penalties and everyone will cream themselves over that fact. The smoke that gets blown up our asses about every single fuching hire is again being blown up our asses.
Does the Tater Tot deserves his shot, yep, and he gets three years to prove it. If we are legit playing for SEC Championships he will, if not be the next in a long run of guys who were going to "change the culture". The same promises that he has made about infrastructure were made in 2014 by another Saban tree guy. Until the Athletic Association shows real buy in we are what we are.

You really see absolutely no difference in this approach by the university compared to the last 3 hires? None?
I'm trying to think of a single time you've ever said anything positive about anything in 7+ years and I'm coming up blank.

Whats different is we finally dished out the same amount of $ that Alabama and Ga spend on asst coaches and support staff. We have never done that before. CR was an absolute grand slam hire for a CB coach. If we fill out the staff with Seider , Lupoi, and some of the other names being rumored he will have put together an amazing staff that can recruit and coach. Our new football facility will open up this year. He has done more recruiting in 4 days than the last staff has done all year. This just feels completely different to me than the last three bozos. If he can’t get the job done in 3 to 4 years, then he will be gone. But what I have seen so far in 4 days looks pretty good.
