Head Coaching Candidates Thread; Brian Kelly goes to LSU

[Durty South Swamp]

Yeah those 2 point wins with superior talent to all other opponents is impressive

 

[MJMGator]

Second fiddle? He’s dominating the Sun Belt.

Yeah but Kiffen won at FAU!

 

[Swamp Donkey]

65th avg passing offense year after year. Can't wait...

Makes Mullenz and McElstain look like a Dan Marino offense.

Second fiddle? He’s dominating the Sun Belt.

Went 7-7 his first year, lost to Ap St. twice his second season and lost to Coastal Carolina last year. Trophy case is still empty.

The Blackboard Football Podcast on Twitter: "Breaking News: According to multiple sources Billy Napier will be the next Head Coach at the University of Florida. Contract details to be released after the season ends" / Twitter

Not buying it from that guy.

 

[GatorInKnox]

I’ve tried REALLY hard to come to grips with the possibility of Napier.


And I can’t. Incredibly underwhelming hire.

Coaches are still employed in a 7 day a week profession (except for Mullen). They can’t go out touring campuses. I don’t think their team, ADs or fans would like it very much either.

I'd go incognito...

They won the conference last year, dumbass.

7-7 his first year and 31-5 since.

No way they hire this guy without even interviewing Kiffen or anyone else for that matter. I call bullshyt.

I will be disappointed if we don’t get Kiffin. He’ll go to Miami and our South Florida recruiting will dry up. We’ll see the day we wished we had signed him.
I’m a Gator fan for 76 years. If they screw this up I’m gone.

We ain’t interviewing Kiffen. Get real.

Butters was Foleys first and only choice. Don’t doubt our stupidity

 

[InstiGATOR1]

It’s Napier and it’ll happen quickly. He’s the corndogs backup plan, so as soon as they get turned down by Riley they’ll be offering.

Despite what that genius McElroy says, UF is a better job than LSU:

1. UF is in the SEC East which is an easier path and is likely to be still after expansion.

2. UF has not just fired a coach 13 games after he won the playoffs like LSU did. (Even if they are probably right.)

3. UF does not have have two new SEC programs right on its doorstep, though OU is a bit further away.

Never Never Never undersestimate the STOOPIDITY of the decision makers within the Administration in regards to Athletics at the Univ. of Florida.

What’s this South Florida recruiting thing you’re talking about?

Well they are going to.
We'll miss you buddy

 

[PaulDrake]

Its probably been posted already but I just finished watching Sling Blade's intro presser as UL HC....I wanted to slit my wrists three minutes in....what an incomparable dullard. Recruits are going to flock to THIS?!?! We are going to get owned like a b***h in recruiting and competent passing attacks that will make us look like.....welll, like Sunbelt Conference lackeys.....

[MertzJay26]

I’m a little concerned about this guy. Why does he have traffic cones inside his house? I’m not thrilled about the screw cap bottle of Pinot Grigio, but let’s not get sidetracked here; the cones. I have to know.

@t-gator answer the man
