Even more reason to recognize what a dump Napier took over and give him time to see if he can cut it or not. Try not to sabotage every coach 2 years into his tenure, or you’ll end up like Tennessee for 15 years

theCAW takes down the Polk County mafia but surrenders to the Disney Gators? Your girlfriend has made you soft. Buck up soldier and get back in the fight or next thing you know they’ll also be remodeling your kitchen!!!

Billy is a program builder IMO. The foundation is stable and he knows how to get the most out of the players. He still needs to do the right thing and hire a true play calling OC. Billy's offensive system is good and should remain for DJ, but it's time he becomes the CEO. There's room for improvement in the operation on gameday, needs to be completely buttoned up.

Even a loss to fsu this week and his job would be safe for next year, maybe 2-3. Lagway has potential and Armstrong might be a good dc after all

read the op closely and you’ll see him

Translation: I’m the same narcissistic negaGator. Napier hasn’t turned things around enough for me. I can’t admit when I’m wrong but the team has improved enough that I need to stop my whining, at least for now. I would rather be right than win.
Like Lagway said, you can win with us or watch us win.

6-5 in year 3 and a repeat of that in year 4 is NOT enough

But instead of being fired immediately, like he would have if we continued looking like we did vs Miami and A&M, earned enough breathing room to get next year to be his make or break season

Pretty mistake free football though. He needed to play ball control vs Dart. If this punt would have been caught by UF it could have been a big play. Our seats were pretty good.

I agree. Next year he's still at risk of losing his job IMO. But I think the team has turned a corner and there's something to be said for learning how to win marquee games. They will know what it takes going into next year's slate.

you're like the clueless Alabama fans that thought Milroe was a good qb

edit to note: not because you're all of a sudden on the bandwagon, but because you were so damn sure of your own opinion before, and it was a stupid opinion.

Casual front runnners like you suck.

I think he’s going to fail and get fired but has earned the chance to get another season to prove it

It’s been a long time since we’ve had a team actually get better throughout the season. Billy just needs to hire an OC.
