If Flawduh fires Napier I hope UGA lands him in some capacity.

I think Napier has a high ceiling. Did he step off into the deep end of the pool coming from the Ragin Cajuns to Gator country? Yes, but I think he's definitely weathered a lot of the storms and IMHO I think he's done better that most would have expected: especially last year. Wouldn't mind seeing Kirby bring him on. I think he has potential to grow into an even better coach.

You boys have mighty thin skin for Gators. May need to re-brand you the Geckos

Billy Napier is a great recruiter always has been. With NIL his biggest asset is void. Take him. He can’t call plays or organize an offense that’s for damn sure.

He’s a very nice fella in person. I hope, selfishly, that he stays at UF for years to come. Thing is, if he fails it comes down to his play calling…which would be his potential job (OC) at UGA or anywhere else, He’s just got to make it work.

NO THANK YOU !!!

Napier is a B1G coach at best. The same with Kelly and Heupel.

Kelly is a good coach, not great but good. Napier is not near his level.

Proves my point...

Good SEC coaches often end up in the 8-4 or 9-3 range and seldom win championships.

He could shine Kirby's shoes or something.

worked great for us too!

I always chuckle when UF fans try to use mike white as some kind of insult towards us. It's been a great hire for us, and as the passage of time shows it was a great move for UF as well.

What is with the childish Georgia fans and thinking it is cleaver to misspell Florida..grow up and get out of your mom's house...seriously. Go watch Barney or Teletubbies.

Napier has been very good building the organization and recruiting, if he can put it together on playcalling we will be just fine.
