Only thing I will say on that is LSU lost a lot of players prior to Kelly arriving and he has been pretty active in the portal. If LSU has a good season that puts pressure on Napier because a lot of that will be transfers and some of his 2nd year guys. People will not be happy with excuses come year 3. I cant think of any recent good championship level coach that didnt have at least 10 wins pre-bowl game by their 3rd full season unless I am forgetting someone. We havent had a coach not win at least 8 games in one of their first 2 seasons I think since maybe Doug Dickey in the early 70s.

I frankly don't give a shite what LSU does relative to UF's success this year.

UF needed to be completely rebuilt as a program - and for some reason most of our fanbase doesn't get that.

That means everything... the entire mindset around football as a program - administration, coaches, players, boosters, fan engagement... the whole thing.

We could go 6-6 again, hell even 5-7, and it won't change my opinion of Napier.

I dont care this season but imo its crazy to think someone is a good coach if they were to go 6-6/7-5 three straight seasons at UF and would be even worse in the portal era. We have the best talent in the country and our arch rival had a coach take over a struggling program and put them in the Championship game his 2nd season. 2 years is one thing a 3rd year would be not cutting it with another mediocre season.
