This doesn’t affect their NIL spend


They are being sued for failing to honor an NIL agreement. You don’t believe that would negatively impact recruiting? And the donors and businesses have shied away from supporting NIL in Florida because of that fiasco?

When your boosters are publicly saying that his buyout is paid for, it’s hard to recruit.

And that is Napier's fault.

Napier should have already been fired. I see a lot of UF fans with the moral victory parade though.

The next year we got the number one qb in the nation. Didn’t hurt us with Lagway.

He's had 3 years, and yes his team continues to fight and doesn't quit.

That doesn't excuse:


Just one question Sir. Who are you gonna get that is guaranteed to be better, because without a guaranteed home run hire, you are worse off. Next year is the same brutal schedule with the same negative impacts on recruiting. With FSU imploding, keeping Napier is a move toward stability and gives you a leg up. Lot of Florida recruits and some out of staters will come for immediate playing time.

Curt Cignetti. Before you start criticizing or commenting. Google him, he wins. But, the idiots that run the UAA and the A.D. will never do what needs to be done.

If you aspire to be like Auburn, go ahead and jump into the craziness that is the coaching carousel. The moment you fire Napier, coaches are going to come for your players and it will be at least another 3 years for a rebuild.

We have coaches coming for our players with Napier employed.

Trevor Etienne went to UGA last year and rumor is Tre Wilson is going to Oregon this off-season, whether or not Napier is our coach.

Who gives a frick? Napier is a horrible in game coach. He loses a minimum of 2 to 3 games every season, all by himself. Special teams blunders, predictable horse shite play calling.

With Nico's performance this year, I'm not sure Tennessee can talk about overpaying for a QB.

If he survives until next year, he will be there another 10 years. He is a good coach and you can see the team improving. I don't think he gets another year though.
