Florida hires Louisiana's Billy Napier as new Head Football Coach (11/28/2021) ***EDIT: and fired on 10/19/2025***

  • HELLO AGAIN, Guest! We are back, live! We're still doing some troubleshooting and maintenance to fix a few remaining issues but everything looks stable now (except front page which we're working on over next day or two)

    Thanks for your patience and support! MUCH appreciated! --Brett (BamaNation)

    if you see any problems - please post them in the Troubleshooting board!

I really wish UF and BN could get it together but it's not looking good.

However, he'll be OK. Heard on the College Final that if they fire him he's due 16 million.
 
Outside of two coaches, UF has been a nothing program historically.

Ray Graves was a pretty darn coach.

Plus Florida in the 80’s was torpedoed because Dooley basically pulled a Phil Fulmer and turned them in because he knew he couldn’t compete with their resources. Florida in 1984 could have made a legitimate claim for a NC had the NCAA not vacated wins.

So did Mac and so did Napier to many. So did Scott Frost. Hiring an unproven upstart is a huge gamble at a top tier program.
Yeah, I didn't mean it as a compliment.

CNS had the unique ability to burn hot but also stay focused and/or calm down quickly.

That dude looked scary the whole game!
 
Whomever this is has to be trolling or they hit the bottle too hard last night. Any list with Jimbo on it needs to be immediately thrown away
Yeah, surprised they didn't go ahead and drop CNS on the list since he already has a house in south Florida.

Stoops would be interesting. When he retired I figured he "come back out" but I think he likes his life too much at this point.

Jimbo??? Who in their right mind would want Jimbo. If a kid from Hueytown, AL hadn't been there when he was there nobody would know who Jimbo is now.

Deep down Florida would want Urban and maybe Urban wouldn’t mind but it’s too toxic to touch
