They are the old Pro Orgeron crowd. That whole Woke movement. They hate Jordy because he was against O and he speaks his mind.

Napier is not going to LSU, word out of Lafayette he was waiting on UF job to open.

Face it we struck out, the job here is not what media portrays it. We will be stuck with Stoops are O’Brian.

Napier is desperate to get out of Lafayette. Never hire anyone desperate for a job. It reaks of Orgeron


If he was desperate he could have found a shitty P5 job by now.

He's ambitious

Maybe too patient, because I dont Think he’ll get a big time HC job out of ULL

I think people do for the most part. I don’t want Napier but acknowledge he’s a solid candidate but I also don’t want him jammed down my throat

Jordy has said many times that if they’re listening to him they need their heads checked. It’s sissies like you that get your panties knotted up over him having a radio show. Tell Derek to stop trying so hard




Don't bring facts into this, there is a witch hunt going on. We have so many low IQ fans, its quite unsettling.

Napier is a rising star. He should be interviewed.

You think Jordy has the power to ram through the hire of Napier?

LOL

Nothing these fools do has any affect on this process.

They are simply white-knighting in hopes of gaining access if their guy is the hire.

Yea it's fine to not have Napier as your first or second option, but don't act like he wouldn't succeed at the P5 level. Dude is a good coach. It's one of those situations where there are a few good coaches on the market and if we get one we won't get the other. Will be sad to see him go but will be happier with Riley or Dave. By the same token, if we are so f*cking stupid that we let the whole ULL "little brother" school shite blind us and we end up with BOB or Stoops over Napier then we deserve everything we have coming to us.

Aranda and Napier are the best hires


It's Aranda and it aint even close. Napier is like a 3rd or 4th tier option

Napier will be able to make the move to P5 whenever he wants and has passed up multiple opportunities.



Why has he passed on those opportunities? Is he insecure about his coaching abilities and afraid he will fail and thus ruin any chance of him getting the job he really wants? Is he so arrogant that he thinks he deserves a job at a major program without proving himself first in a smaller program?

The narrative that he’s “turned down jobs” is a bit overblown here. More like he interviewed and was turned down from those jobs but those programs allow coaches to “save face” by saying they turned the job down. Much like every place has done with Venables.

Stop with all the not creative names for people who like any particular candidate. LSU fans need to stop taking sides on our coach this time. I've seen 17 years of it, and it is holding LSU back a little. Whoever it is, i'd love to see what LSU can become if even 80% of the fanbase gets behind the coach, instead of the usual 50/50, or less.

Maybe he's comfortable where he is and willing to wait for the right opportunity?

Success in college coaching has as much to do with the school as it does with the coach.

I could switch coaches and schools and the results would be extremely different.

Do I think Napier was offered every job that has been rumored? No, but I believe he's been offered 2-3. I firmly believe if he would've agreed to Auburn's personnel requirements, they would've hired him. Maybe South Carolina as well.

It's OK to not want Napier. He's not my choice either.

But the dude is a good coach, and you don't help your argument with these childish remarks.

Well said Bjorn.

Count me in that camp- think Napier is a good coach and has a future in P5, and I wouldn't be too disappointed if he was hired at LSU (a little, but not alot). But we're on to bigger fish at this moment.

Word out of Lafayette is he already turned down the LSU job, look for that to come out once he accepts UF job. I truly think that LSU makes a desperate push for Kelly to hold Walker Howard commitment.

We know Jimbo and Riley turned down the job.
It will get pretty ugly here in a week when media outlets start leaking that Aranda and Napier did as well. Mark it down, we will end up with Stoops if we are lucky.

Jordy can play favorites. It's his show and he's the boss. If it doesn't align with your thinking, he's stupid or sucking Napiers dick etc. No one can have an opinion anymore. I dont think it would be a bad hire, although I prefer others over it.

Its Napier or Aranda. That's what we are down to, IMO. I think everybody else will turn down Woodward and that may even include Aranda. Napier needs to be locked up by Sunday Morning and we have to be prepared to outbid Florida in a big way for him.
