    Hey Yall I mean no harm or controversy just want our Dawgs to Win, Win, and Keep On Winning !! But I sure hope our Dawgs will play their A game vs the Mud Lizards.

    I’ve seen though yeah it’s sort of rare and I’m sure Yall have seen it to teams play Better when their HC is fired. I guess they figure they have nothing to lose so they play with wild abandon and don’t even really worry about penalties, like roughing the QB for instance.

    All I’m saying is go in there take care of business run the score up on them would be nice to !!

    They are NOT better than our Dawgs with or without Napier. Just our Dawgs are coming off a hard fought game even with two weeks off our Dawgs are beat up. I most assuredly Expect and Believe in our Dawgs to beat the lizards. But games like this can be sneaky.

    Ole Nerrrrrvous Ned here Lol !! 🤣 Go Dawgs stomp them Mud Lizards !!

    Ouch !! You could very right on that !! With respect though, I’d hate to see that as he’s a pretty good coach. Give him UF’s resources and he could be very dangerous !! Now make an X mark and throw some salt over your shoulder to ward off that hex Lol !! Just kiddin. But I hope they get another Napier like Coach. Don’t want to see them rise back to power.

    Off topic but what Id Love to see is a rematch with Bama in the SECCG ( Even better the Natl. Title) and curb stomp them !! Bama has in some ways become our UF of the past.

    FU is a much better job than MS. The recruiting talent in FL is head and shoulders better than any other state. Kiffin at FU would not be good for anyone but FU. He can cherry pick his MS roster. Cherry pick NIL. And get his share and more of the FL HS talent. FU upgraded all their facilities recently. AL, LSU and all the TX schools raid the best talent in MS. In FL, FU (under Kiffin) would be the new front runner for HS talent.

    If he can be tempted to leave his alma mater, Jeff Brohm of Louisville seems to me to be the best candidate for the UF job. He was a great QB for Louisville, has innovation offensively without the pithy personality of Spurrier or Kiffin, and has proven multiple times he can win against top flight competition. As a Dawg, I hope he does not get consideration.

    Having watched the UF/ MS State game, these both could be real stumbling blocks for us in the new SEC. Thank God we don't face Vandy this year (unless in SEC championship or playoffs)!

    it’s interesting how some of these coaches desire being at a top tier school. Showing it’s not really about the money as most of D1 coaches, especially the Power 4 are paid very well. Some personality types may prefer being well loved at their Alma mater, knowing a 8-4 or 7-5 season will be acceptable. Others crave the spotlight and desire to be on top. Kind of like Coach Richt compared to CKS. Both very good coaches, just different priorities.

    Coaching pay (like NIL, pro sports and other things) has gotten out of hand. Napier was successful 80% of the time while at Louisiana and got a great contract with Florida. He will STILL be paid millions of dollars for failing more than 50% of the time.

    In the real world, you fail and you're gone…and maybe will get a few weeks of severance pay.

    Hey, Florida! Hire me! I can F**K things up as much as Napier for a LOT less money.
