When you think about the elite recruiting in Louisiana, his approach to building a staff and program, the success he’s had as a coordinator, the preparation he takes, the fact Saban wanted him back on staff twice, and he’s only 42. This is the coach.

It’s maddening see the retards in our fan base (including Moscona) say we “We CaNt HiRe tHe CoACh at ULL!” You have no legitimate talking points against this guy except for he hasn’t done it a P5 program. Nothing. And when he inevitably succeeds, you’re going to be sitting on your asses wondering what if

If you think we can’t win with Billy Napier, when we’ve won a natty with Ed Orgeron and Les fricking Miles… you have no hope. You’re an idiot.

He would take this program to another level if hired.

I’d be totally fine with Napier

Personally Prefer Matt Campbell more, but I like Napier

I don’t know a lot about Napier but he looks to have the potential to be a diamond in the rough

Louisiana will be in the top 25 and LSU won’t.

Lol frick no he doesn’t

He has the lowest floor though

He’s never proven he can win at this level and he’s been ok at UL with a ton of wins in 50-50 games

Lincoln Riley clearly has the highest ceiling

I don’t know how many times it has to be said. Napier will not be the coach.

This is the venn diagram of 2016 Ed orgeron supporters and 2021 billy Napier supporters.

You had your chance and here we are.


Let the sane of us do the hiring this time.

Napier may not be the "Biggest name on the Marquee" but he is a good fit for LSU, however Dave Aranda as HC with Napier as AHC and 0C would be an awesome combo and great fit.

Give him 2 million to be the OC at LSU and he'd make the move, or just give him the HC job if DA doesn't want the gig.

Fickell is an Ohio Boy, doesn't know Louisiana or the South. Would be a big social learning curve there.

Not so with Dave and Billy. They full well know what the expectations are and what they're getting into......

Why would we hire a guy who sucks as an OC as OC?

Hiring people because they talk like us got us here.

You seem to have a lot of anger toward Napier. Did he do something to you? you want to share with us?
