Who Does Florida Hire To Replace Billy Napier? (Florida Coaching Search)

  • The Billy Napier experiment at Florida has turned out to be a disaster. When Napier was hired he looked like a homerun type of get and seemed too good to fail yet he has. Supposedly Florida is planning to fire Napier as it is more of a when than an if at this point. They apparently have a booster willing to pay Napier's 26 million dollar buyout and they had an emergency meeting on Sunday. Napier is 12-16 since becoming Florida’s head coach and the Gators once fired a coach for going 6-7 after going to the SEC title game only a few years earlier. So as the coaching carousel ramps up early, or so it seems, let's look at the possible candidates who could replace Napier at Florida. Some are crazy and unrealistic while some are true possibilities.

    Matt Rhule is a great coach and would be a boon for Florida, but I think he fits the mold of a B1G coach. He did play there after all. Personally, I hope he stays and retires in Lincoln. I'm not a diehard Huskers fan, but college football feels right to me when Nebraska is playing near the top. They were so much fun to watch back in the day.

Florida has been more successful overall in the last 20 years than Nebraska but that doesn't cancel out the historical tradition and advantages the Nebraska job gives to its players and coaches.

    What about Gus Malzahn? He's already in the state running UCF quite well and has many years of winning seasons at Auburn. He could take the job and rebuild the teams culture, with the amount of experience he has being 58 years old is still decently young, he could coach there for 10 or so years until he retires. He's not the flashy hire I'm sure Florida wants but he should definitely be looked at

      Pretty underrated candidate for the job. UCF is recruiting a lot better than I thought they ever could being in the same state as recruiting powerhouses like Florida, FSU and Miami. And Malzahn deserves that credit. SEC resources like he’d have at Florida would also help him.

    • @hughgpauwels

      @@hughgpauwels yes and no. Sark turned down Bama not only for money but also because he was getting the ball rolling and finally establishing his team of guys he brought in, along with money. Texas moving to the SEC has the resources it needs to compete. There was nothing of value other than sentimentality and joining the Bama Legacy that is better than where he’s at. Kiffin is in the same boat Sark was in with Ole Miss he’s got multiple classes he recruited finally under him with his coaches, Ole Miss looks like a contender already and he’s already getting paid. Unless he’s becoming the highest paid CFB coach it makes no sense at all to leave for Florida.

    If Fla doesn't actually straighten out their NIL, which a coach doesn't run, they have no chance of hiring a top tier sitting head coach having success in the NIL era. And no one wants to hear about the hypothetical dollars Fla has in the piggy bank, rather the real spent money that retains and attracts players - like Ole Miss has clearly had since the NIL era began.

      @hughgpauwels 7 дней назад +2

      No. Stop it. He ain't being fired if he goes 11-1 and loses to Michigan. If he was consistently missing 10 win seasons then yeah he should get the treatment Texas did to Tom Herman, but no, too successful as a HC right now and has a DeBoer-like record at Ohio State. You ain't firing a HC with a 55-8 record with two big ten titles, a Natty appearance, and three playoff appearances going into his sixth season as HC.
      I don't think he's the best HC in the country or maybe even top 5, but he's top 10 at worst and the grass ain't always greener on the other side. Look what happened to Texas when they got rid of Mack Brown. Only now are they starting to emerge from the damage of that fateful decision back in 2013. Herman at his best was Mack at his worst, and Charlie was a moral man who didn't know how to win.
      Plus Ohio State is a better job than Florida. Ryan Day is far more likely to go to the NFL than take a downgrade in job.
