They should hire Coach O. I mean, he IS a national title winning coach after all.

I don't see Mullen ever getting a good gig like UF again. He just couldn't get it done recruiting.

Meyer's classes at UF: 2, 1, 5, 7, 1. That's what they're capable of pulling.

Mullen: 9, 9, 14, 11, 12. Not going to get it done.

I could see Lane to UF and Napier to Ole Miss.

The carousel is gonna be wild. If LSU really pulls Riley, it’s going to be even wilder.

Florida fans on some message boards seem to want Napier.

No doubt. A mid-major, maybe. Probably better off, both financially and professionally, as a P5 coordinator though.

He got out coached by Zero the last two years. I predicted he would be fired after the LSU vs UF game.

Well that would be a huge mistake in my opinion if that's the thinking...Napier's resume just screams success, not to mention the peers who've called him a young Saban.

LSU is 13-7 against Florida since Spurrier left. I like Napier and I wouldn’t mind him at LSU. But there’s no coach Florida will hire that makes me afraid they’ll beat LSU every year.

Meyer won 2 national championships at Florida and had a decided coaching advantage over cartoon character Les Miles while the talents levels of the program were even. And LSU went 3-3 against Meyer. So those days of Florida beating LSU every year are over.

I expect it to be Napier, announced relatively soon.

Napier seems like the popular choice among the #UF fan base.

I know the #Gators have already reached out to his representatives, but they will be doing that with several coaches. We will see what comes of it. Very early.
