Does this Billy Napier tweet have anything to do with the coaching search?

Yes. For Virginia Tech’s coaching search

Hiring Napier might just be the straw that breaks the Camels back for many LSU fans. I could see a mass exodus of fans if that’s “the guy”. I mean, why be a fan of a program that’s obviously not even trying anymore?

That’s so fricking dramatic lol

Well then they shouldn't be LSU fans already when we hired O.

I love his recruiting and building the program but I just don’t know about his coaching on the field.

Too many openings for him to stay at ulala after this year.

That’s kind of the point though. LSU would have just come off hiring a doofus of a coach just to hire a sunbelt coach.
That’s the epitome of no longer trying.

He may very well be the next Saban or even better. But no top 5 program is hiring a coach from the Sun Belt to run their program.

You will be downvoted to hell, but you are right. In the immediate aftermath of a Napier hire, the program would take a significant hit on many levels. Here though, these Napier simps will hear none of that. It is actually very Louisiana that we may end up with him. And yes, I know he is not from here, but he has been here long enough to learn how to play the game. It will be a deflating hire celebrated by the baws and rationalized by the desperate. Hopefully, that is not where we end up.

I like how you’re specifying the sun belt because you know if you said g5 you’d look even stupider than you do right now.
Napier is far down my list but to act like his entire coaching history can be summed up as “random sun belt coach” is idiotic.

Exactly my point. I’m not saying he’d be a guaranteed failure at LSU. I’m just pointing out that no other top 5 program would hire him as head coach right now. Especially after making an extremely lackluster hire previously.

Where was he a head coach before?
Posted on 11/18/21 at 7:45 pm to J2thaROC
Where was Riley a head coach before he got the OU job? Day? Kirby? Aranda?
If we hired Napier right out of his Clemson OC gig no one would care. But because he decided to coach the sunbelt before jumping to p5, he’s the devil?

False. This board overwhelmingly wants a coach with head coaching experience in a power 5 conference.
You see anyone asking for Venables to be hired? No you don’t.
The closest you got to it is Aranda and the ONLY reason people are ok with him being considered is because he was already a coach here and did well and appears to be doing well at Baylor

No doubt you have zero friends. And your family definitely hates you..

Man you hate that I’m right about this don’t you. Lol
