In the last two seasons, the only teams Napier lost to were Miss St (they were only down 7 with 3 minutes left), twice last year to 13-1 App St, by 10 and 7, and this year to Coastal on a last second fg. They did beat Iowa St 31-14, outscoring them 21-0 in the 2nd half after going into the half down 14-10. If not Freeze, Napier would be a great choice.

I'm all in on Napier if he gets the job.

He looks to be a solid coach. These successful group of 5 coaches scare me though. I just look at Scott Frost and what he did at UCF compared to what he's doing at Nebraska and I cringe. I'm sure there's plenty of examples of the opposite, but I'm too lazy to google it.

UCF is a fools gold job like Houston though. Very easy to win at. ULL was ok under hudspeth but Napier has taken them to a new level and he has experience at big boy jobs.

The thing is we would have to be willing to let him bring his whole coaching staff from ULL. He told SC and AU no because they wanted to tell him who to hire. He sounds like a smart dude that isn’t willing to bend the knee to loser boosters that think they know more than he does

Interesting...I have heard that if they tear one there is a 90% chance the other will tear. Rehab is a LOT of work.

Hey Bandit, I have a 9 year old lab and she had both of her hind legs operated on with that surgery in June of this year. The surgery was a success and she's back to normal 6 months later. She's starting to run the fence line, in my back yard, barking at other dogs and people. She still gently climbs on her couch but every once in a while she'll just jump up on it. Everything is cool with her but I'm out $7K :):):)

I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm leaning slightly towards Freeze, but I wouldn't be disappointed if it was Napier. Those would be my top 2 of realistic options.

What sucks is, as many times as I clicked on that damn thing not ONCE did it land on the guy I want. SMDH

Two observations:

1. Your statement sums up the last 3 coaching searches for VOL fans.

2. The irony that your screen name is CoachClick and you just spent several attempts trying to click a coach is beautiful.

I think we should bring keep Pruitt next season and see how he does. Unless we can bring Kiffin back, of course.

I know I'm in the minority, but I still wanted to document my view.
