    He didn't strike me as ghetto but he does seem to be a bit of a weirdo, not showering after losses and such. That's the kind of thing that's okay if you're winning but becomes the next "Billy is sticking to his process lololololol" type thing that is repeated incessantly if there's a rough stretch.

    As someone who got multiple weeks in the penalty box several times for lambasting the obvious flaws of this staff maybe we should trust the process a while longer...I really like Napier and his offense and will never mention "baby oil" again. Ive had my warning earlier this year and am trying to be a kind and understanding poster this year to make their jobs a bit easier (lord knows the bitching will be a solid 10 from now on).

    I would probably make you the backup person to fire Napier...we should probably choose someone more gentle and caring like Skink. He could give him a shoulder to cry on and help him work his way through his hurt feelings...gentle soul he is I know Skink can gently let him down and save him the man tears on the way out.

    You are right about Billy. but it's not what I asked. The top tier coaches are at mostly great schools. Which coach would have an upgrade to leave their school to come here with our psychotic mess?

    We're not in a position to simply pick and choose.

    We will always be pretty close. Recruiting hotbed, state of the art facilities, great stadium, solid tradition and a hug salary.

    Imagine this.

    6-6 at end of season.
    Injured star QB
    Toughest season ever
    SS says he’s giving Napier another season with requirement of an OC?

    What do you do?

    Nothing to do, of course recruiting will absolutely tank because everyone with a brain cell will know he's going to get fired the next season.

    I keep checking ESPN every hour or so for an announcement that UF has fired their head football coach. I'm so done with mediocracy. How low must we fall until Strickland makes a move?

    Recruiting now daze is mostly who's paying the biggest bucks.
    A great X&O's coach that's weak on recruiting, but has a BIG NIL basket will do just fine imo.
