    Napier went from one game away from losing his job to one game away from keeping his job. What's the difference? Perception. What bothers me is the idea we should beat the teams we're supposed to beat and play competitively against the teams we should lose too. This is Florida. There should be no team we should be competitive with in a loss. Florida should be the favorite in every game and if we lose a game it's an upset.This is how far we have fallen. Personally, I question whether the Florida admin cares about wining. They care about profit for the people who invest and if they can make that profit without having to go all in ... $$$$$ .... they're happy. Napier stays for the 2025 season.

      You make fair points but we haven’t been that in awhile. It takes some time to rebuild unfortunately. There’s a lot that we could all go into and discuss but some other things that pop up in my mind is look at program programs like Vanderbilt and Kentucky. I mean, they are legitimately competitive. The days of winning by 60 against those kind of programs just don’t exist anymore. The landscape as a whole is too competitive

Maybe now could be different but Florida looked lost in that first game of this season. I’m a canes fan but I’m actually rooting for the Gators to succeed ( except against us ), because it is sad to see the Gators fall from grace. Believe me , I know what’s is like since it’s been 23 years since our glory days . Napier is fine, just needs to hire an OC after the season. Get rid of him will just set you guys back years again ( Miami is a great example ). I do see them beating Ole Miss, LSU, FSU and the way Texas got exposed, they have a shot.

    We actually made it competitive in the second half against A and M. We put up 20 in that half and should have a had a lot more if not for pick six by Mertz and later INT by Lagway. The pick six was a potential 14 point swing. Even if is 7 point swing, it would have been game down to the wire.
    We were the better team in the 2nd half when our offense got a chance to be in rhythm and our D show some sign of life to make a few stops.
    That 2nd half was in my view, despite loss, when we began to turn season around. The never say die attitude, throwing haymakers of our own, etc.

    I agree basically. FSU should be a gimmie, should be. LSU is currently #8, like TENN was when we coached ourselves out of a win. If we play like we did vs TENN and have better coaching, a win is within reach. Ole MISS Is on the bottom end of the Top 20, so you would think that game is winnable, as well. As for UGA and UT. We have to show up. I wouldn't give up on those either away either because #1 has fallen already this season. The D plays like their hair is on fire and the O goes downfield and we have a chance vs anyone.

  • @notusedexer

    One of the reasons stated when we fired Mullen was that he was only able to recruit in the top 10 and we need to be able to recruit in the top 5 to have a chance to get a natty. So we hired Napier under the pretense that he could get us back to where we needed to be in the recruiting. I don't give a f*** if he wins this year or if he wins next year, the question is can he get us back into the top five in recruiting?

Having Georgia next is rough because that is the toughest opponent on your schedule and Kirby flat out hates Florida and wants to drill them every year based on what Spurrier did to Georgia when he played for Georgia.

    4. when other programs are saying they passed up on him for THE EXACT REASONS he’s failing at Florida
    And for God knows why there’s this debate about him keeping his job when he’s failing at what we literally fired the last guy for and he’s doing it worse!
    I could go on and on and on. He’s lost the fans; he’s lost recruits. So what if his game day coaching improves the train is already off the tracks.

Is Napier capable of elevating a team without special talent? The answer is obvious at this point. I'm wrong about a lot, but not football coaches. Is it honestly beneficial to our program to retain him after a 6-6 season & another subpar recruiting class....or delaying the inevitable? Time to move on

    He is a LOSER! His wins have a combined 10-21 record. Kentucky just got thumped by Auburn and his recruiting class is ranked 50th. If they keep him another 3 years we will turn into Nebraska

    My biggest concern at this point is that we don't have a recruiting class...... I mean, we have a worse 2025 class then some MAC teams.... I mean, we are FLORIDA, and at a school like this you have to win AND recruit well, it can't be one or the other, especially with the teams we play against..... Napier I'd an exceptional human being, but "ultimately" he's not an SEC caliber coach.... the SEC is just different..... we HAVE to move on, no matter howuch it hurts, it's just time unfortunately

      I mean yes, we are playing MUCH MUCH better since the BYE, but tbh, Billy Napier is single handedly the ONLY reason we didn't beat Tennessee, pur player won the game 100%, Napier lost us that game, that's unforgivable and these players DESERVE better then to have someone who leads them into battle only for their leader to cost them everything...... there is no coming back at this point, I've got a Gator tattooed on my chest, if Napier is back next year, I WILL get that tattoo covered up, I mean, he's embarrassing our program right now, none of this is ok anymore and I'm sick of it

    Only way we should keep Billy? Ok so I'm at a loss? It's his play call and how he holds back his talent.if Billy could run the table this year I would consider keeping him but how are we going to get him to change his play calling the boys have to work really hard to make that look good or even work ? I wanted Billy to be the man but I don't think he has what you need to have in the SEC ? GO GATORS GATORNATION FOR LIFE REGARDLESS WIN OR LOSE

    If They bring in a new coach they're essentially restarting the rebuild process back to ground zero......Not only that but UF schedule next season is basically the same in terms of difficulty.........Long story short I dont see a coach coming in a doing much better than .500 in year 1. And we can bet year 2 & 3 for the new coach wont be any easier. JUST SAYING. Might need to keep Billy. He just needs a high caliber OC!! Needs offensive creativity.

  • @patrickdezenzio4988

    If his seat cooled after just one game, we have bigger problems. Cooling after beating a 3-4 Kentucky team at home? A Kentucky team that sits just ahead of Auburn and Miss St as the worst team in the SEC standings? Are we Vandy now? We are 4-0 against teams with a combined 10-17 record, none with a winning record. And Billy, poor Billy, just can't seem to get it up for big games. He always folds like a cheap lawn chair, makes multitudes of bad decisions and players seem to feed off that and here comes all of the penalties. How many false starts, 12 men on the field, roughing the QB, PI, block in the backs, chop blocks, faking injuries, sitting on the ball to end the half, not going for 2 when he should have, etc. are we going to have over the next 5 games?
    EDIT: The other issue is look at the 2025 recruiting class. It's currently ranked 51st, the worst ranking any Gator program has had since recruiting rankings began. We might have no choice but do what FSU did last year and rebuild the team from the portal. You know we are going to lose quite a few players once the season is over.

    Suppose that instead of firing Billy (when you blow it up we start over again) the boosters used the 25 million buyout to pay the best lineman and or players to plug any holes we have the NIL it costs to bring them here. I don't pretend to know all the rules, but I know money talks. How much does it cost to bring in the best receiver, O line, d line players in the nation to come to Florida? 1million per player? 2 million each would bring in 12 of the best players in the nation, forget recruiting freshmen that may get good in 2 years. You get one killer class and the recruits will come. Money talks! Thats all these kids care about! It's a business now, start treating it as a business!

  • @wsgjr.9040

    It took injuries to Mertz and Johnson, among others, for Napier to put a winning team on the field. While his loyalty to some losing players and coaches/coordinators can be seen as admirable, the facts are that he is either a lousy judge of talent or too stubborn and narrow-minded to make the changes that are required for UF to consistently be competitive again. His highly touted recruiting prowess is a mirage according to the ratings of his recruiting classes. Say what you will about Etienne, but he was RB #2 at UF, goes to Athens (where there is a coach who can actually recruit) and instantly becomes their #1 - scoring loads of TDs. And Baugh was stuck in the Gator line-up as #3?? There is plenty of talent onboard for the next coach to get UF back in the hunt. UF should not have to underwrite Napier's poor play calling and game management hoping he grows into an SEC level coach. The light bulb did not suddenly turn-on for Napier, his players finally overcame his coaching!
    Before too long, we will see more instances of 12 players on special teams, 3rd down passes behind the line of scrimmage, and "scared money", a total lack of passion or emotion from him on the sidelines, and loads of stupid penalties..We can get rid of about 150 of his staff along with him, and get back to winning football games again.

    Sorry ali but you are huffing extreme copium on this one.
    It is year 3 at UF. There is absolutely no excuse for am argument to be made that a possible 6-6 is worth keeping his job.
    He has had the time with the program to put his guys in place. This roster is now a pure reflection of our coach. Mediocre 6-6 seasons are not acceptable here.
    No amount of gaslighting is going to change that he is done at end of year. Beating inept teams doesnt change anything. I genuinely hope he is let go right before fsu game.
    The absolute worst case scenario is if he gets another year. A lame duck year will set our program back even more. The money is raised. He needs to go. If he had a shred of integrity he would fire himself like spurrier did.

    Ali. Why does everyone keep bashing the play calling in TN game. Its the same calls in UK game. Even the GNFP said so on your show. We just executed better in UK game. And we still had a chance to win. Just 1 less mistake and we win that TN game. The mertz fumble alone would have won us the game. At some point we have to realize its about execution.

    He should have been fired already. I think this admin finds a way to keep him because Stricklin seems more like a saboteur than an AD. If UF keeps him and limps out of this season without at least beating Georgia and FSU, turning around an atrocious record against rivals, and has a sub-50 recruiting class, then there could be a catastrophic loss of support for the program. UF can't afford to keep him, which is why Stricklin will probably keep him.

    Napier 2025. A coach going from a lower tier league needs time to learn to how to be head coach in the SEC. Just like a player going from high school to college and college to the pros. Plus the University of Florida can’t pick a good coach anyway to just him.

    I am sorry, but, even if Billy manages to eke out 6 "W"s, he should be fired. Bills is not a Championship caliber coach. When you see him coach, on the side lines, or doing the press, do you see Spurrier or Myers or Saban or Kirby Smart in Billy, not even remotely close. We, Gators do not have a bright future, or much of any future, with Billy coaching us, he needs to go yesterday and We need to hire a great coach, like Tennessee did and like Ole Miss did.
