So people on this site swore against the idea of LSU hiring Napier because they thought Riley is the golden child. Now that Napier is going to the SEC people are worried he’s going to build a monster. Is the little brother school factor really that big? C’mon man

Same panic mode thinking that led to Ed O.

There's a reason multiple SEC schools offered him.

Shitty fans don't like Napier ONLY because he is at ULL.

That's how retarded these people are.

You do realize the people “worried he’ll build a monster” are the ones who were blasting the board for a month that we needed to hire him.

Not the people who didn’t want him, right?

100% because he deserves it. Just blows me away how because of him having ULL listed on his résumé turned a lot of LSU fans off.

The people pumping Napier as the next Saban are the same ones saying he'll be a monster.

Great example of the retardation right here.

Most rational people understand Woodward wasn’t interested in Napier for whatever reason. I like Napier but I think LSU can and will hire a better coach.

I agree 100%. I think he’ll be great, but we’ll get someone even better.

No one with a working set of testicles is worried about this.

Hopefully it’s not a similar mistake that LSU made when Spurrier wanted the job and LSU decided to go in different direction.

USL fans wanted LSU to hire their coach so bad. It’s cute.

There seem to be a few people that are concerned about Napier going to Florida, but I don't get the sense that most are very concerned. Mullen was much more accomplished on a higher level, and LSU didn't have much trouble with him.

Napier may be a really good coach, but I, and others, won't fret a bit if he winds up in Gainesville.

I think you are vastly underestimating him. The guy managed the clock well, coaches the way Sean Payton coaches in regards to what personnel he has and adapts the game to the players, and built a huge staff at ULL. Given the money he will have available at UF, you should be worried he locks down a state that had been good to us.

Which is the only reason the retarded fanbase doesn't want him.

Do you really need it explained that these aren’t the two same groups of people?

I have been saying, and also of the opinion that Napier has the highest ceiling of any of the candidates. The guy just knows how to call a game. That is not a teachable skill, it’s mostly intuitive. I have repeatedly said for weeks that LSU needs to hire him before one our yearly opponents does. We are going to suffer recruiting by losing O. Napier was the best option to hold court and maybe be better in that area.
