No idea what’s going to happen, but Florida put on a clinic.

They targeted their man, went after their man, and got their man with very little drama and in very short order.

I can’t believe we’ve been waiting 6 weeks, and this is where we are. No matter how you slice it, this is a bad look.

It was a lazy hire by Florida. They just took the first available.

They conducted 1 interview and called off the search

Is that supposed to be a good thing?

Or they rushed it and hired someone most people here didn't want to touch because he was up the road.

But just think…

Florida didn’t even have the opportunity to enjoy a CCB like this.

I mean it’s not difficult to snag a G5 coach that’s been itching to leave to a bigger program like LSU/Florida. Especially since LSU showed no interest

If lsu wanted Napier the same thing would have happened, he would have been signed and announced immediately because he’s ready to jump to the sec. But they didn’t want him. All reports say florida barely had to do any work

Guess you just have to give it a few years. If Napier really is this young Saban type that people claim then they crushed it.

Seems like an unsound process for a power 5 program of Florida’s stature

Sure.

But they also took a big risk. If it doesn’t pay off, it could plunge that program deeper into mediocrity or worse that will make it even more difficult to revive.

Napier could not go get any open job he wanted so it was easier to get him.

They hired a guy this board despised, so who cares. If you think all these other schools do it better go be their fan and sttdb

You people act like landing Napier is like getting Saban to jump schools.

LSU could have hired him in about 30 seconds if they wanted

“Hello mr Napier, we’re looking for a coach here at UF and...”

Napier : “yes”
