You’re not going to need to, they’re gonna have plenty leftover from not closing on anybody this yearYeah I'm not giving another dollar to the collective
According to TOS we're losing Jean to the noles and the only uncommitted recruits we were leading for (Fletcher and Caden Jones) are Miami and LSU bound. Looking like a 12-13 finish for us this recruiting cycle, 3 or 4 spots worse then Mullens bump class.
Edit: Fletcher already committed to Miami.
Losing out on Walker is a big blow. Absolutely needed to land him. From podcasts and social media it seems like this class is going to end with a DUD. How did we lose all the momentum on trail? Awaiting answers from the experts
His transfer portal QB looked spectacular.All our best players we're Napier's.
He's full on head up his azz delusional at this point. It's best to just ignore him.His transfer portal QB looked spectacular.
Your just being negative, your not a real fan unless your cool with being a loser.Forget the bump class. There’s a very real chance this class ends up ranked worse than the worst class Mullen ever landed(his transition in ‘18). I get J’s point that rankings aren’t all that matter, but with the resources given I him, that’s absolutely inexcusable. His class ranking should never be behind a guy who basically didn’t try.
We’re also trying to hang onto Norman and Gates. So this could get real ugly, real quick.

Fletcher to Miami
Can't defend the close on this recruiting season; just as bad as the last.
I still like the class overall and I can see what Napier is trying to do with it but you simply can't miss on so many targets and expect to compete. Whether it's him and his staff, the admin unwilling to shell out the dollars or a combination of both; you have fallen further behind Georgia. Is this class going to be better than what the last three **** faces brought in? Yes, does that make us better, yes.....does it catch us up to Georgia and Bama, no and that's ultimately the problem.
I think I'm just sort of in the minority that looks at this problem as an administrative problem more than the coaches. We won't play the NIL game nor will spend and do what it takes to be elite and I think the university is fine with that. Napier will likely be gone in '24 due to talent differential and we will rinse and repeat. Until the university gets serious about football, it doesn't matter who we hire.
Sidenote, I have no clue what we're doing in the portal. It's like we haven't even tried and we have so many holes we need to replace and upgrade and we're just sitting there on our hands.
Lol. Billy’s recruiting is about the same as Mullen’s. He whiffs a lot.
The money they committed to him is on a completely different level. The facilities are insane. The staff is quadruple the size. Hathcock has made his presence felt with NIL. If the recruiting commitment wasn’t there, do you think people like Raymond and the coordinator girl we grabbed from uga would’ve left their positions to join here? Bottom line, this is on Napier not getting it done. No one else. That admin excuse is no longer valid.
I think he tried to go too familiar with several of his hires and needs to make some serious decisions within the next 2 weeks. His obituary is being written, but he can still stop it if he wants.
His elite talent recruiting is the same...the rest of the class is much better than anything Mullen brought in though.
The money in the department and the program is better but not the money you need to pay players and that's where I think the issue is alongside Napier not closing on elite talent. The class as a whole is actually very solid and much better than what we've had in years past but too many misses on elite guys and positions of need. Samson, Fletcher, all those guys went to the biggest bag...that's not on Napier as much as the boosters not wanting to buy the guys
