Florida fans are always celebrating before the proverbial shoe is thrown. We heard the same jawing about your last coach. And we will no doubt hear it again in a couple of years about your next one.

Pretty much. Brian Kelly is an old, weird, Yankee from New England, who took a school with certain overblown limitations and won at a high level, despite being an average recruiter. Tell us ALL about that, Tigah fam-uh-lay. Because we just fired a slightly younger, weird, Yankee from New England, who took a school with certain overblown limitations and won at a high level, despite being an average recruiter. But I'm sure it'll work out JUST fine for y'all, fit doesn't matter after all.

He left us paper thin at RB with his only commitment coming from CEH, who I’m glad panned out, but he missed on several huge RB recruits to get us to that point. His overall commitment list was pitiful during his year at LSU, Fournette and Guice both declined statistically from 2015 under his coaching, and he ended up at Texas Tech (lol) followed by ULL (lmao) after he was fired at LSU.

So yea, douche, is that good enough for you? Do you have any evidence whatsoever that he wasn’t subpar at LSU or did you just want to come across as a dumb prick today?

With NIL I'd argue that being a great recruiter is a lesser commodity than being able to develop talent. I belive LSU staff is better at developing talent.

The facts remain to be seen.

But the truth is that you are as skeptical of Napier as anyone else, probably more, and that's why you're really here pimping his faux accomplishments and seeking our approval. You're scared.

So 2 guys that have never been a HC are better than BK. Also, I must have forgotten all those playoff appearances that BN has had which would rank him ahead of BK. I didn’t even read what they wrote after seeing that.

So in his one and only year at LSU he recruited CEH. And it's his fault we were paper thin at LSU. He also listed as the primary recruiter on Racey McMath, Tory Carter, Jontre Kirklin. Secondary recruiter on Lowell Narcisse (I know) and Saahdiq Charles.

Who did we miss on? Honest question. Cam Akers is the guy I recall that we were targeting but I doubt he was coming to LSU in 2017.

Settle down skippy, didn't know you were so fragile.

I made no assertions of him being good or bad. You, on the other hand did, so the burden of proof is on you.

I promise you, and you can choose to believe me or not, that I am in no way "scared" of Brian Kelly at LSU. Brian Kelly will probably do well enough at LSU, but that's more a product of the situation than the coach. Brian Kelly seems like a bizarre fit, but he also seems like a good coach. I'll tell you this, coming off the Mullen regime, I'd have been beyond pissed if we hired Brian Kelly, because that's who he reminds me of.

That no Coaching arse Corey Raymond is my guess. Raymond couldn’t coach his arse out of a wet paper bag.

People who say this online must be the biggest fricking losers in real life. I don’t need to “prove” anything to you because you’re a fgt and I don’t care if you agree or not. GFY move along to another thread if you don’t agree. I really don’t care nor does anyone else

I believe you.

But that's not what I was referring to.

I was referring to Napier.

Deep down, you are scared he will flame out. I don't blame you. Not that long ago you had another Saban tree guy who did that very thing. Your premature posturing about his recruiting prowess (and so on), reeks of fear.

When Napier puts a skin on the wall, let us know. Until then you're just writing Gator fan fiction. And the rant isn't the place for that.

Billy Napier was a better hire than Brian Kelly according to 247.

Yeah, and Freeman gets a B for keeping his playoff caliber staff together for ND.
And Riley gets a B+ despite being the best Offensive coach who reached the playoffs 3 times.
But a Sun Belt staff gets a A+ for winning 1 Sun Belt?

Billy Napier and his staff will recruit circles around Brian Kelly, and that is a fact. Now go ahead and down vote this, I'm right and I don't give a phuck

No he’s not. Maybe if it was 2015 but NIL completely negates having good recruiters on staff, and your brilliant Florida leadership decided to hire an entire staff of recruiters when we have exactly 1 personal injury attorney in Baton Rouge who will lock down more recruits in the next 3 years than your entire staff combined. Florida’s admin was 5 years behind on this hire and y’all are going to pay the price for it on the field. Can’t have a full staff of recruiters with no one to coach them up and keep them under control these days. Sorry buddy
