re: What else does Napier have to do to prove his coaching ability?

Let’s be honest, can the top recruiting class in the sunbelt be “far and away” better than everyone else? I would say no, someone has to be the top class and it just happens to be his.
Then maybe we shouldn't call him a great recruiter?

No undisciplined penalties

Not my fault he took so long to get somewhere in his career?

And his batshit in-game decisions but we just overlook those because he coaches at a school in LA.

I don’t want Kiffin

Not struggle against sun belt teams despite an apparently large talent advantage?
False Narrative. Same talent
Winning every game despite equal talent is literally an indicator of being a great coach.

Nicholls was never in position to win that game. It was sloppy but they didn’t struggle.

Seems a lot of LSU fans here are in love with him, yet his own fans packed in, what, 8,000 K mabe? Hard to tell on tv but the stadium had huge gaps all over. For all his offensive creativeness, being a Saban clone, a great recruiter,all he does is win attitude, etc etc etc...no USL fans seem to care one way or another.

I love how since this board has opened, Napier supporters have argued how great his recruiting is, but now they're arguing "it's the same as the rest of the conference".

I like Napier. Not in love & not my first choice. But some of these arguments are whack. ULL is winning at a clip they never have before. If their fans / school can’t show up on Thursday nights now, they never will. That’s not a demerit for the HC.

He's won 6 SBC games in the last two years by less then 7 points.
Hardly impressive from a school that has an insane amount of advantages compared to like ULM and Troy etc.

So his recruiting is overrated?

Hudspeth even won/ made SBC title games so not like he was taking over some arse D2 team

His recruiting is whatever it needs to be in the moment to forward the narrative.

It seems people on here are expecting him to bring SEC talent into the SunBelt and be steam rolling every team they play. The highest ranking SunBelt recruiting class is still a SunBelt clas

Not lose by three touchdowns to a poor Texas team would’ve been a good start.
