Kelly v Napier

Kelly: all-time wins at Notre Dame; two CFP appearances; one Natty game appearance; future HOF inductee.
Napier- HC at USL; sun belt champs
Lol. LSU made the right decision.

But Napier coached in Louisiana for 4 years and was once a position coach for Saban!

USL won’t beat LSU

Napier might end up being a great coach at UF but Kelly is a more proven commodity and I don't think Woody wanted to take a chance on an up-and-comer type with this hire.

I don't want this to be a thing. Kelly is a far more proven and far more successful coach and is more likely to have success quicker. Napier is going to be behind on talent and he hasn't shown he can compete without the best talent.

Agree. Napier is more like Curley than Saban

Sunbelt Billy will either prove himself worthy or not for everyone to see. Just let it play out.

Time will tell, Napier still has a long way to go in his coaching career. LSU couldn't afford another mis-hire so they went with the tried and proven Kelly. That don't mean Napier will not turn into a good coach you never know we may look back at this 10 years from now and regret it. I think Napier would have had a better chance to land this job if Coach zero would not have left us in such shambles.

What if LSU didn't take a chance in an up and coming coach named Nick Saban

Are some LSU fans this insecure?

Methinks we dodged a bullet in Bargain Bin Billy

Agreed. As an LSU fan, the insecurity of this issue is pathetic.

So what you are saying is that Napier has slim chance to beat saban given the results of his former assistants vs Saban ? I don't get what ya trying to say, not a clear message
Posted on 1/17/22 at 9:54 am to Lebowski
What this says to me is LSU wanted a complete overhaul of the football athletic department. With that, you need someone that has built a program and sustained. Don't know if Napier would have done what Kelly has done so far.
Napier may be a good coach, but would he the best coach to carry out the transformation of the program. From him hiring Raymond, I don't think Napier was the right person at this time for LSU.

It's not even close.

Why are people so obsessed with Napier on this board? The coach we really need to be asking if we made a mistake by not hiring him, is Dave Aranda.
