Coach Billy Napier Needs a Hat.
Spurrier had his visor, Bear Bryant had his houndstooth, Bum Phillips had his Ten Gallon hat, Belichick his hoodie, and Larry his Fedora.
Don't get me wrong, I like Coach Napier, but bare-head Billy invites the Carl jokes and looks like he's been kept behind barbed wire until liberated recently by Patton's 3rd Army.
Self-barbering never looks good when you use the same #3 attachment all over. Curly Lambeau had a shock of hair that befit the moniker; Curly Howard not so much.
And a good brim on that hat will shade your eyes from the glare of stadium lights and the sun...all the better to keep track of the play clock and timeouts.
A good hat can turn a tic-tac-toe player into a chess master, a sideline goober into a football savant with daring and dash; a pigskin man-of-mystery: "What's he thinking over there? What's going on under that iconic hat?"
