3 matchups that will define Florida vs. LSU (and a prediction)
That was on Mullen too.
The shoe toss wasn’t about Wilson. It was about Mullen making light of it and not punishing that stupid behavior. Mullen lost me in that postgame presser.
I’m not sure I would expose Lagway to re-injuring that hammy just to try to salvage a 500 season and an invite to the Gasparilla Bowl.
Well, you know who must’ve been going elsewhere Humper.
Too late to make the change before the 2025 season by then. We’re resigned to another year of Napier’s sideline gaffes and word salad excuses for losses.
Not sure your first seven words shouldn’t be insulting. After all, if the choice is between drinking water from a toilet, or living in a swamp, I think I’d rather live in a swamp.
LMAO! You just proved my point!
Keep it up, all of you.
Gator Nation has been here before. The great guy back then was named Muschamp.
Palace intrigue stories always get viewer interest. Just take a look at what’s happening in DC.
Why? This is very amusing, if somewhat juvenile.
The dye for this bad choice was cast the day Ben Sasse resigned as UF President and Ken Fuchs was brought out of retirement to keep his chair warm. Stricklin and Fuchs fired McElwaine, hired Mullen, fired Mullen and hired Napier. THAT is enough incompetence for those two.
I’m pretty sure the Boosters will only fund Napier’s buyout if Stricklin joins him on the unemployment line. Fuchs is not allowed to fire Stricklin by the board of regents. So, keeping Napier another season becomes the only possible choice left. The football program can’t remain in limbo any longer and the new UF President won’t be seated until next summer.
Except Kiffin is the kind of OC Napier wishes he were. Yet, Kiffin hired an OC so he can have time to manage the clock at the end of each half and make sure only 11 guys line up on kicks.
Details, details.
Napier’s strength has always been evaluating and recruiting talent. Fact is, now that he’s back next season and the Gators have an additional $10 million to invest on TP talent, he can go for winning big in 2025 by bludgeoning opponents on offense and suffocating them on defense with superior talent and depth.
It would be great if he agreed to hire a real OC, but he probably won’t be needed if the Gators pile up the talent like cordwood along the OL and DL.
Actually, in spite of that Ole Miss beatdown, once again the players did not quit on Kirby.
Was that moral victory acceptable to you Humper?
Why do they have so many injuries? I don’t believe in karma.
The last thing I want to do is make excuses for Napier. He needs to be gone, sooner rather than later.
That said, we had the top three corners and top two safeties out injured for this one. What else would you expect?
Perhaps, it’s bad karma. Perhaps, it’s bad S&C. I lean more towards the second than the first. Just another reason Napier has to go.
Stricklin should be gone soon, right along with Goldden the perv. That should clear a path to get rid of Napier next year.
Recurring hammies become chronic. I certainly hope the doctor knows what he’s doing if he clears DJ to play this soon.
Chump change for the guys we’re talking about.
The boosters had pledged to pay the full $26 million buyout, not UF. It’d be a simple matter to divert the first $10 million of it to the Gator Victorious Collective.
Indiana may be a one-year wonder, Cignetti is not. He’s been successful at every level he’s coached since he left Saban’s staff in 2010.
The only thing that concerns me about Cignetti is he’s 63 years old. But hey, who am I to talk about old age. Besides, Urban Meyer did OK at UF in just five years.
Riiight! It’s gonna be that scintillating Napier personality, that pithy, on the mark analysis that’s gonna keep folks riveted to their TV sets when Billy speaks. He’ll be the EF Hutton of College Gameday!
Dispassionately, when you look around campus at all the new sports facilities built, or old ones upgraded since Striklin was hired to fund raise for them, you understand what UF saw in the guy. The fact he turned out to be a terrible judge of head coaching talent, was something we learned about later.
When you look at the Alabama like front office Napier convinced the UAA to budget for and hire and how that front office has signed talent such as Pearsall, Lagway, McCray and Howard, you can understand what Stricklin saw in the guy. The fact that he also turned out to be a terrible game-day coach, was something we learned about later.
Still, given the misfortune of also hiring a terrible president, Gator Nation will have to wait another year to get rid of all three guys.
It didn’t even wait until a different topic today. Read the post directly below yours.
BTW, when Florida fires Napier and if Florida really wants Kiffin, Kiffin will be a gone Rebel.
Book it.
After a new university president is hired… in 2025.
Riiight. We all know how much Kirby fears Napier and his Gators.
As judges of head coaching talent go, Stricklin is a great fundraiser. With another football coach’s firing/hiring imminent, his days at UF may be numbered… unless… Napier has an Orgeron 2019 type season next year. Long shot, I know.
Ever since Sasse unexpectedly resigned, Fuchs has just been warming the president’s seat. I believe your recommendation may be executed by the new president, once he settles in next year.
