Trusted UF Insider Just LEAKED Who’s Replacing Napier After This Season! | Florida Gators | SEC 

And like I've said before, if they ever fire Napier please fire Stricklin first!

As a Gator, UFs problem won’t be solved until we move on from Scott Stricklin. We have a larger problem which points to the leadership

It’s absurd seeing so called UF fans betting on BN downfall.

The problem is if you keep playing musical coaches you get a reputation for a "hire and fire" environment. Hard to get quality and proven coaches under those conditions. Napier needs to play out 2025. If he doesn't turn it around by then at least potential coaches know they can get a few years to build things back up.

It is so ignorant to talk about firing Napier before the season has even started!

BN gonna be our coach for a long time .. get on board or get left behind !! Go Gators !!

If they fire Napier next year. I am done with the college ball and the Florida Gators. Between the NIL and not giving these Coaches time to build their program. After being lift with crap from the previous coach. The fans complaining that never step foot on a Football field. Telling the players and coaches how to do their job. What happened being a Gator sticking behind them the team win or loose. I got to meet Napier last week. What a class act. Very impressive guy!

Culture is everything, all past teams reflect the Coach. Give BN a break, he’ll get the job done

Coach Napier forgot more about coaching than 99.9% of those asking for his release.

LSU indeed didnt like Napier. He never even got a interview

Thank you for speaking proper English and not ending sentences with the word at , it’s a breath of fresh air hearing someone who doesn’t speak like a hillbilly . You earned a new subscriber .

she said "you know" 400 times. it was mind-numbing

If people would read all the stories about Mullen at UF, they would know the shit show Napier really took on.

New AD is in order. Need one that pursues the best.

All this is Karma from the shoe game…

That shirt reminds me of my aunt from Naples,FL in the 1990s.

Wow Ali ! You guys do have the Toughest Schedule ! Coach Napier goes from the Frying Pan into the Fire 🔥 ! From " Running the Gauntlet " last yr to the the Old " Death March."

Mullen left this program in much worse shape because he hated to recruit 4 and 5 stars and evaluate and develop. Napier needs a big season but fans need to get off his back. Let him coach and develop this roster. He did a great job at Louisiana Lafayette with three 10 win seasons. Nil has to be factor after losing QB. Stricklin needs to be on hot seat. Schedule is favorable early but brutal in November. Coming from a bama fan.

When do you bring on the "insider"?

A Shot, WTF. 4 maybe 5 wins tops and that's their shot.

LSU didn’t want Napier…

JeddFisch: While at Az, Fisch said, multiple times, UF is his (Jedd's) dream cfb HC'ing job. 👀

Man this is maybe toughest schedule I've seen since I started watching college footbal 35 years ago. UF having a shot at winning 7 games is a dream be delusional - I have UF going 5-7 and that will be great for this schedule and where they are as a program. However if they can somehow put things together for 7 wins Billy should be the coach of the year in the SEC and maybe National. Im a Nole so you know how I feel about UF but this schedule make me sad for them. Hope they step it up tho! Cause that means CFP controversy and that's better for the game with 12 teams that can make it. Go Noles

As an OM Rebel, I will tell you that Lane is not the same guy from four years ago. His salary is in the top ten nationally. His daughter is a freshman at Ole Miss, so he doesn’t want to start over again 😊

Ali mentioned Florida's 06 team would lick their chops about the schedule but the Gator teams that deserve the most repect is the are the team that had Danny,with Ike,J.Jackson,R.Anthony,were the teams,and if your a Gator fan who grew up watching Kerwin as a kid,and Graduating the year Danny,and E.Kresser did you think you should be able to win every game you play and expect to!!

No. LSU never pursued Napier. If there was ever a program that would have known what kind of coach he is LSU would certainly be it. Ross Dellenger #LSU did not seriously pursue Billy Napier, sources tell @SINow, despite a swell of support for the coach in south Louisiana. November 28th, 2021.

Wow, that lady needs to lay off the happy weed. Case of beer Florida implodes and Napier hits the unemployment line.

Dye Hard Auburn guy here. I like UF though.... even when they were kickin everybody's tails with CSS and Meyer. Heck, I like most ALL SEC schools except bammer, and it ain't that I don't like their program, I just can't stand their fanbase. That said, I LOVE Lane Kiffin. I wanted him at AU when we ran Harsin off. I'm all in with Coach Freeze now though and I think Lane Kiffin would ABSOLUTELY DOMINATE at UF. Like I said, I really like Kiffin, but I hope he stays right where he's at... I think it's a lot harder to sell Ole Miss than schools like UF, UGA, AU, LSU, bammer, etc. Anyway... I'm ranting again, but I'm anxious for AU to get back to relevance and I just think Kiffin at UF would be much harder to beat than Kiffin at Ole Miss.

Wisconsin plays Alabama, USC, Oregon, Penn State…. There’s a few tough schedules out there in 2024.

Go get coach Prime please, he can get the recruiting back on track

Does the Gator insider have a “page”?

It all comes down to if they got the funding for buying players fixed

If they replace the coach, they will lose half the team to transfers. You’ve got to be careful firing the coach nowadays, unless you’re replacing him with Saban.

FSU went 8-5-1 against old Spurrier.

I never thought I'd like hearing Kiffin's name associated with UF ..... but I'm more than okay with that. I enjoyed the backstory about Jedd Fisch. I'm kinda surprised that he hasn't had more coaching success ..... but it seems like something's missing. Maybe he just doesn't have "it." You can put me in that part of the camp that thinks Mullen might have been just fine with some NIL help. But something seemed to just totally unravel for him after the shoe throwing incident. Hindsight is 20/20. That's why they don't make glasses for asses. Shoot .... if Will Grier hadn't flunked a drug test, Jim McElwain might still be there. After all ... he found a way to win with Treon Harris. Word is that McElwain was never comfortable with the UF way of doing things. I'll say that Mullen's teams seemed much better prepared to play than Napier's teams. And with a much smaller coaching staff and budget.

Do some of you really think this staff is not going to lose at least 7 games again this season? He should start the season 5 - 0 but probably won't win the first 5. But... The last 7 are the games that will break Napier and this staff. If we have to move on from Napier, we need a home run hire to excite the fan base as the Napier hire was not even close to an exciting hire. We need to hire a proven winner for a coach and not another "Diamond in the Rough" hire such as the last several hires.

Doesn’t UF have the same gauntlet of a schedule next year also?

There is a National Championship coach available. Coach Ed Orgeron LOL !

Fun and gun coming back? Say less! As an FSU fan, can we please bring the vizor back in the swamp?

I was about to roast the fuck outta this video just based on the video title. Your lucky Ali Peak showed up instantly

Lane Kiffin to the Florida Gators....congratulations universe, you win.

Give me kerwin bell

AD Scott Stricklin i don't like him at all and never did! For me right now (Kiffin, Lanning or Fisch) if things don't work out?

You can't predict based on assuming the best from UF, and the worst for the opponents. All the UF troubles can't be blamed on Napier.

Freshwater to the Gators is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

These comments are ridiculous. At what point do people quit making bullshit excuses for Napier’s inferior game day product? Dan Mullen is long gone and no one gave Spurrier, Muschamp, Meyer, Mullen or McElwain any slack for playing a difficult schedule. Napier has proven to be a disaster thus far and needs to start winning football games.

As an fsu fan get yalls shit together so beating you means something again!

Please tell me that Sun Belt Billy isn’t leaving. 😂

If we go 2-10, we still need to stick with him for at least two more seasons. I think there’s a good chance they shock the world, let’s stay healthy and tackle on defense

PSA‼️ For all true Gator fans who quote Dan Mullen's recruiting rankings, it's important to note that many of those recruits never even made it to campus. Coach Napier inherited a difficult situation with the team. For example, only two Gators were drafted this year including those who have transferred out. So, let's not overhype Dan Mullen's recruiting class. In the words of Dan Mullen, "I'll talk about recruiting when it's recruiting season."

So who's the insider?! 🤔👀

Fish isn't leaving UW for UF lateral move

So you want the best equipment manager. Lofty expectations.

I hope yall go after the cheerleader mom coach with the golden whistle in Colorado 😂

And it’s GREAT TO BE A GATOR HATER. No offense to Napier!

Literally none of this is terrifying unless you’re a gator fan

Wonder if Florida can get James Franklin winning 9 to 10 games per year can get ya in playoffs now a days!

IF Napier is fired this year,I think they go after Lane Kiffin and I believe he would take the job.

Gators win 7 games and Napier keeps his job!!

Prime

No one and I mean no one is terrified by anything to do with Florida Football!

Click bait title, but some good points. Napier is a good coach, just not ready for a job this big, at least right now. Seems like the administration and the coach are not always on the same page.

If Napier gets fired Lagway transfers out.

Duh. It’s Ted Lasso.

Oh come on with the clickbait title 😢 You ask your hypothetical question to a Ali (SHE BLEEDS ORANGE AND BLUE), and she emphasizes keeping Billy and tosses out what if scenarios!!! Hopefully the keyboard fans don’t smash on her. SHE IS A GATOR!! GO GATORS!!

I'm really scared.....😂

Florida has had 2 yes.....TWO great coaches in their history. That isn't many. Not really a Top 5 job in the SEC or nationally.

UCF will continue their winning streaks against the Gators in football, basketball, and baseball in next season and 2025!

Napier is still paying for Dan Mullens bad recruiting, Mullen was lazy and left Florida a mess. Napier is a great coach he's just had some ridiculously tough schedules and Mullen left him a roster that was a mess. Florida needs to give Napier time.

Ok I see and believe it or not Tennessee alums have been predicting Lane to UF for a couple of years. The guy is basically a hired gun w no loyalties to Admin, or school so as long as you are cool w that it can work.

Stop with the crazy talk. Napier will be here next year and you can save this comment so I can say "told you so"....I'm so tired of the negativity with Gator sports period!

LSU was falling apart under Coach O and under turmoil when Kelly arrived. But last 5 years beat the Gators

Who's the trusted UF insider?

Jedd Fisch would be a massive improvement over Sunbelt Billy.

Go get Lane right now.

They need to donate all their money to the Billy buyout fund. It’s over for him after week 5. There is no way UF fans are ready to see them go down to UCF in the Retention Pond.

Sunbelt Billy is a good coach. Something else is wrong at fl

I want coach napier to stay coach but I would seriously look at usf's coach.

Gators go 9 and 3

that woman......is gorgeous

Billy had a Year ZERO and a year 1. He will be here for 2 more seasons at the least if we win 7/8 games so the haters can keep hating…

Nobody would be satisfied with 9-10 wins every year.

Billy Napier is a really good coach and I’m afraid they’re not gonna give him time to win

This is some incredibly wishful thinking. They win 5 games at the VERY most.

Napier is not on the hot seat. He will have enough time to get things going in Gainesville. We jus have too many fair weather fans who put their unrealistic expectations on him.

Stricklin has turned UF into Miss State! He must go!

Well I'm a Dawg,but I believe Napier is a really good coach the fan's need to give him a little more time they do have the worst schedule in sec football Go Dawgs!

Peek is correct. Napier's seat is only hot IF he only gets 3-4 wins. Other than that total meltdown of a season, Napier will not be fired. He has the full support of staff, players and most importantly the Athletic Department. Napier is re-building from inside-out, bottom to top. It doesn't happen in just 2 or 3 years. If Napier is fired, whoever comes in after him will be the beneficiary of what Napier has built.

Firing Mullen was an inevitability. The production he brought in was the worst for UF since 1980. He struggled to evaluate and develop talent. That is the reason why the only drafted UF player this year was a transfer under Napier. Great on the field coach, but that was about it.

O the dog days of summer bring em out

Kiffin is ready to build a dynasty somewhere. Gators would have been a very good match. Still could be. Ditto with Bama. Both teams missed their best chance by not trying for this year. If Ol Miss show$ Lane that he is Really Appreciated, he may stay and build that dynasty right where he is.

Nothing about FL scares any team. LOL

Ali should not have fallen into this trap about replacing Billy. Very disappointed in her.

Second part of the conversation is irrelevant Napier will 8-9 games this year and he will be able to see DJ Lagaway through regardless of what happens.Florida has the second most production returning in the SEC with a veteran QB that will be more experienced than almost every QB he faces,in no world is that a recipe for a 5-6 win season.

As undisciplined as the Gators were last year against FSU I think they will implode and he gets fired early so they can be 1st in the coaching search for next yr

Texas

where's the faith in Billy? Season hasn't even kicked off yet.

Firing Napier would be stupid! Alot of his recruits came to Florida because of him fire napier and watch the recruits hit the portal especially DJ lagway he loves Napier. It will be another rebuild

Terrifies who? Pffth I can assure u there is 1 rival not in the least bit even nervous about anything UF.... U know them DAWGS have no fear. Now Vandy & SC ... maybe Kentucky... sure.

Why not re-hire Steve Spurrier? He's probably delusional enough to take the job at this point. I'm a Georgia fan and I have Florida's best interest at heart....really.
