Napier's going to end up at some G5 program with a shot at an expanded playoff.

As HC?
An AAC or Sun Belt?

I suspect. Napier has proven he can win in the SunBelt.

Maybe he will come back and call plays if Roper ever leaves. I bet we could get him for a good price with that buyout :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Napier’s buyout if $26 million. He might be gone by the end of the day. However, Florida has an out. From the USA Today. “If Florida fires Napier, he will be owed approximately $26 million in buyout money. But that number could be mitigated because Florida is currently being investigated by the NCAA for its recruitment – and Napier’s role in the recruitment –of former high school recruit Jaden “

Dave. Exactly.

I WISH I could fail so gloriously. You literally win the lottery by failing. Please sign me up for that. Pleeeeeeaassee. I want to win the lottery - I’ll lose every game

I want that $$$. Side bar he can go back to G5. But I don’t even care about that. In that position I would offer. My services for cheap or free. I am seriously jealous of the money. And half oh those guys get fired and paid MORE not to coach for an opposing conference team. Paid more NOT. TO. WORK !! .

shh... I HAVE THAT FINAL GAMEBALL in my closet. Went on the field post game (talking to Littlejohn) and the ball was just laying there. I just picked it up and walked away. (Hypothetically)

TRUE. He will be Richer than most guys who make the NFL as that’s the “Not For Long” league for your average player. Not talking Peyton Manning. The standard NFL tenure I read was 3 to 4 years. Makes sense. Most make it a year or three. A few outliers stay 15 years.

***. Dave, please check your private messages ***. Thanks man !!!

Amazingly, sticking with a good coach as he installs his player and culture without constantly firing them will eventually return results. Shocking.
