re: The Napier campaign was maybe a revelation

I still think Napier is a good coach but obviously BK is certainly more of a slam dunk hire.

Boy, this turned into a hell of a thread.
Let me get this straight: LSU screwed up because they didn't give an interview to the coach at ULL before they hired the guy who won more games at Notre Dame than Knute Rockne, because the coach at ULL is now at Florida?
And this is true because this new Florida coach was going to take it easy on LSU before we insulted him by not interviewing him?
Heaven help us. We also didn't interview Frank Scelfo at Southeastern or whatshisname at Grambling, either. Someday Fritz from Tulane might have a job where he plays us and he'll feel disrespected, too.
The only reason any of this isn't laughably stupid is if Brian Kelly turns out to be a bust of a coach who loses a lot more games than just to Florida. Because I'll just tell you - Billy Napier will count himself lucky not to be completely depantsed every time he tries to beat a Brian Kelly-coached LSU team.
Have you considered that if LSU had started granting interviews to Sun Belt coaches who have no rings before they began negotiations with Brian Kelly - or worse, during those negotiations - that perhaps Kelly might have concluded LSU was a bunch of assclowns not worth his time?

We do not want up and down votes used for polls

badly and is probably pretty offended that he wasn't even considered for it.

Too many of these Louisiana hires are a result of backdoor intrigue and old boys club politics so it was refreshing to see a professional coaching search executed with no bias. I commend SW for keeping Napier at bay.

Yep. This is exactly what you're doing. Please stop.

If Bill is as high functioning and intelligent as you say, and I believe he is, he will understand it was just business. Bill and Scott may end up rubbing elbows at a future time/date/school.

wait… so you wanted us to interview the ULL coach so that when we play him in the future he wouldn’t want revenge on us? Oh no, I’m so fricking scared now… Napier is going to be angry and hold a grudge and try to beat us extra extra hard. shite.
I’ll warn Brass Balls Brian Kelly to be extra careful.

Napier gets to take no higher ground on LSU. He’s tried to politic his way into the job and Woodward didn’t flinch. He should thank LSU for Florida panicking.

I predict Nappier is going to be a heck of a coach for UF.
I was all about bringing Aranda back as HC and if we couldn't get him then hire Nappier
Having said that,
I am happy as heck with this hire

IF he's intelligent, he'll understand why he didn't get an interview.
If he's emotional, he'll feel slighted that he didn't get an interview.
You need to start using the correct words.

Good thing he was on the show too. So when he takes his hard-on for LSU to Gainesville like spurrier did, you’ll remember that it was a mistake to not even interview the guy
Not gonna be Hallman and Dinardo on the LSU sideline

Why interview someone for a job He's not qualified for?Just because someone wants something doesnt mean the are qualified to get it. Why should Woodward interview a guy as a courtesy if he thinks he is not qualified for the position. The UF AD did a horrible job IMO, he didn't interview anyone else but Napier, and then hired him because he knew it would be popular with the masses. He could have done better.

especially knowing now how that same unprofessional treatment levied against Spurrier drove him to sadistically bitchslap LSU for a decade
You have know idea what you are talking about! Spurrier was pretty much hired, but the LSU brass was swayed by the players to hire Archer and LSU left Spurrier sitting at T.J Ribs. Billy wishes it got that far.
