No, just no. 4 years at ULL isn't shite. Kiffins 3 years at FAU are highly comparable to Napiers, if not better.

Here is FAU from 2010 through the Kiffin tenure:

2010-(4-8)
2011-(1-11)
2012-(3-9)
2013-(6-6)
2014-(3-9)
2015-(3-9)
2016-(3-9)
2017-(11-3)-Kiffin as HC
2018-(5-7)-Kiffin as HC
2019-(10-3)-Kiffin as HC

Here is ULL through the first 3 years of Napier:

2011-(9-4)
2012-(9-4)
2013-(9-4)
2014-(7-4)
2015-(4-8)
2016-(6-7)
2017-(5-7)
2018-(7-7)-Napier as HC
2019-(11-3)-Napier as HC
2020-(9-1)-Napier as HC

As you can see ULL was very much a bowl team with winning records prior to Napier while FAU had very few winning records and none from 2010-2016 prior to Kiffin.

And now in 2021 both are 6-1. Kiffin is 6-1 at an SEC school and Napier is 6-1 in the sun belt.

i will give you credit for atleast coming withing of substance. Napier improved his team year over year unlike kiffen.

I do give kiffin credit for FAU, i think he did a fantastic job there and has done a great job this year. I expect IM to return to his normal 6-7 wins next year though as he has shown int he past.

More head coaching experience

yea he was a failure pre saban for sure....so we giving people credit for failing>

Kiffin hasnt seen everything

i dotn care about the saban connection that much to be honest. and i just want a head coach that is a creazy hard worker and leaves nothing left to chance.

I think kiffin and Napier are both good choices, with both having advantages in certain areas.

as HC though i find what Napier has done more impressive. but i would be happy with kiffin and the O he will bring, but i do think we would have lots of mediocrity sprinkled in between the good.

in the end, scott needs to interview and hear the plan from both and many others and go with who he feels can implement the best plan.

IMO though Kiffin is the best OC in football and is simply masquerading as a HC.
