Billy Napier - UF Head Football Coach

[oxrageous]

I certainly hope so. It is his only apparent upside.

Yes, all the games he wins don't matter at all.

Didn't you always say your record is who you are?

This is like the ugly, desperate bridesmaids fighting over the bridal bouquet when it's thrown.

Sad really.

I get it. Do I ever. We’re not hiring a coach as much as a battalion.

If you win a bunch of one score games you will inevitably lose a bunch of one score games. Ask Chimp or Mullens. Or Fat Phil in 99.

I also don't believe dominating a minor conference means anything. Mumme and Donnan dominating their conferences, even winning big.

I think your gut instincts at a good recruiter is a good recruiter is probably right.

Okay, I just got more take-it-or-leave it information:

• Announcement is likely Monday unless something unexpected happens today
• LSU has reached out to Napier but UF was first and more "meaningful"
• Assuming Napier is signed, he will start recruiting immediately but will still coach the Sun Belt title game

Sounds like Aranda is turning them down too.

not a battalion but even half a company would be spectacular.

grab UF athletic department by the hair and pull them into the 21st century kicking and screaming.

He better not say "relentless effort" in the introductory speech.

You gotta give our baseball AD props beyond looking like a Van Heusen model. He’s learning on the job.

again with the van Heusen dig. What gives ? Did you get bagged on one time while wearing it. They have some very nice new performance fabric Dress shirts now. The are an up and Coming brand like Napier

 

[Bait'n Gator]

He is NOT LSU's first choice. BUT you were clear...I don't know anything.

And LSU is not his...

What the fuch are you even talking about, I said he was LSU's 3rd or 4th choice? I don't know who Napier prefers just like you but I do know what every fuching person who should know has said, he wants LSU.

I figured you for a hospital scrubs kind of guy.

Aranda is staying at Baylor.

Getting ahead of the game and not chasing unrealistic big fish targets might have helped Scotty here. But LSU is gonna bring the house today. Believe it.

They’re in a world of hurt if they whiff on Riley, Aranda, and Napier. One of us will be for sure.

If they wanted Napier, they should have noticed what strychnine did. He went by the adage of go ugly early.

We're Plan B U

 

[FireFoley]

If LSU were to miss on the so called names but then somehow scored on a guy like Rhule, would that be considered a whiff????????????????

this was my middle name at UF

 

[cartman302]

Do you think the UF-Napier negotiation gets this far along if the delta you suggest being in the way isn’t bridged? It strikes me as central to Napier’s needs.

I think they’d go right past Rhule and make a play for his OC.

quite a few of their pundits tried to convince them to do just that. They did not listen. If we’re this far along I hope they don’t swoop in for the steal because the prom queen turned them down.
