Thank God Napier, Mullen & Franklin

All turned us down.

God turned us down?

Don’t you remember all of the Gruden threads that said he was coming here? Why do you think he didn’t?

That’s just a partial list. Add Charlie Strong, Troy Calhoun, Mike Gundy among others.

I heard that even Deion Sanders turned us down.

 

[CPVOL]

Gregory Schiano sure as hell said yes.
And I was one of the ones saying to go all in on second year APSU coach Will Healy.

I wasn’t aware that Napier was ever a consideration. When I heard his name after the FL hired I immediately thought they just landed their Dooley.

Supposedly he told Tennessee “not interested” while at ULL.

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

Add Dave Doeren to the list.

Doeren turned us down because the fanbase told him he wasn’t welcome. Which is fine, he would have been fired by now.

He was Saban compared to Dooley. He has left Florida a great roster unlike Dooley who left practically nothing.

I actually think He helped line up the dominoes to get us what we have now. And looking past this last weekend and taking in the totality of everything I'm glad we got blessed with Heupel because outside of Saban or Urban Meyer, I don't think anyone could have turned us around this fast...........that said, we are definitely wandering in the wilderness, although we have been freed from exile. Unfortunately even Moses was not allowed to enter Canaan before his death, he was only allowed to get close to it and see it...........we'll see how the rest of the year turns out I guess.

At least Mullen beat Georgia and got to an SEC championship game. Those are things that Josh needs to do to take the next step.

That was in an entirely different SEC than we have seen over the last 4-5 years. We were unfortunately down during those 10-12 years, but before NIL and the portal and with the divisions it was a hell of a lot easier to get to an SECCG from the East Division.

Now that I think about it, that season wasn’t that impressive. Florida beat one good team that year lol

We are in contention for the playoff almost every year. I’d love to know how that is “wandering in the wilderness.”
