Any list that has Tebow at QB4 of the 00’s is not to be taken seriously. The guy is arguably the greatest college player of all time. I’m not saying he’s a lock, but I could make a convincing argument for it and I’m not even good at arguing.

Yeah I don’t see how anything good is going to come of this. He must have finally got his copy of the playbook.

Expected to be promoted to co-OC in keeping with the current trend at UF of multiple coaches doing the same job and no coaches doing other jobs. This is the craziest shit I’ve ever seen in terms of staff structure. That org chart must be wild. And yet, despite having two OCs, our guy manages to say exactly what you’d expect him to say: "Yeah, I do (want to call plays in 2024)," Napier said. "I think that big-picture wise, we're taking the group of people that we have and we're trying to develop some people, groom some people. We've done a ton of work in the offseason to kind of evaluate that in terms of what that looks like." www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/florida-expected-to-promote-tight-ends-coach-russ-callaway-to-co-offensive-coordinator-role/

That’s HALF of our offensive line coaching staff!! Might be for the best since our O line was arguably the hottest mess going last season.

What could he have done for the program in that span of time? I’d really like to know whereas he was there for a cup of coffee. That line of the article literally triggered my fight or flight instinct.

why the f did this guy bolt so soon?? BC - Director of Strength and Conditioning, full authority. UF - Coordinator of Repetitive Motions while holding Heavy Things and Jogging Analyst, Predecessor still on Staff. I’m dead.

I don’t like Brian Kelly at all but I don’t have to like a coach. I need a coach that wins. Not winning AND being hard to like is really tough for me to overcome though.

It’s like he really doesn’t know what the GD plan is. The guy couldn’t give a direct answer at gunpoint. He just keeps saying words and then at the end he hopes they make sense..

This is a total shit show. We have a defensive coordinator and a head coach of the defense. The HCD is a mentor to the DC, who calls the plays, which makes zero sense. We have two offensive line coaches, and a horrible offensive line, but no offensive coordinator. Napier refuses to address the elephant in the room, the terrible play calling. I believe that even with Graham Mertz at QB, with the right receivers and play design we could have a decent vertical passing game. We joke about Mertz checking down frequently, but a big part of the reason that he does is that he isn't given time to throw. It's hard to find receivers when you have a defensive lineman in your face all of the time. I’ve been in a couple of organizations that were like this. It’s a tactic to avoid accountability. Bob thought Heather was going to update the spreadsheet but she maintains a different spreadsheet. This is the CFB equivalent in my opinion and it will not work.

I'll probably forget something, but in this offseason of hilarity I believe we have now brought in: 1) A "GM" type based on his contributions to the rousing success that was Dimbo Fischer at Texas A&M 2) A new S&C guy who appears to have been a good hire but we are keeping the old strength coach and letting him coach football because he's always wanted to. Also he is going to be a motivational speaker on the side. 3) A new DB coach with 1 year of experience running a position group rather than being an assistant DB coach 4) A Defensive Line Coach who has never worked as a Power 5 position coach unless you include Interim Spring Defensive line coach 5) a new linebackers coach who just got fired at Auburn and will serve as the Defensive head coach 6) a kicking specialist who will serve as co-analyst/not allowed on the field to coach as the co-head of a new special teams department with the guy that was so successful last year. I feel like Napier really gets it and his process and evaluation is on-point. I can't believe I ever doubted him. You’re forgetting the NIL guy from Negraska

My two teams, representing my current and former home cities, could both use him. The loss of Christian Kirk, and the consequent fade out of a once-certain playoff spot, showed the lack of receiving depth in Jacksonville. The Raiders need more than just Davante Adams, especially since they are expected to bring in an accomplished quarterback. I had Adams and Josh Jacobs on my fantasy team. It did not go as I had planned to say the least.

I saw that story yesterday. The guy was Nebraska’s director of player development for one year before we hired him. Solid hire right there.

I wish people would stop bringing up the schedule. It’s the SEC. It’s always a tough road. We used to be on the other side of that. One of the tough games on other people’s schedule. When the homers point to next years schedule it amounts to making excuses in advance for losing games in my opinion. It reinforces a losers mentality that has somehow permeated our fan base. I’m fully on the win or walk train. WIN. OR. WALK. Stop making excuses and win.

Good luck to him. He balled out under the circumstances. Some NFL team will be happy to have him. I think he’d be a great replacement for Berrios on the Dolphins. But I’m a Dolphin fan so there’s that.

Well I guess I should have read the article but I got excited. We haven’t actually hired him, but we have “zeroed in” on him. And it won’t be an on field coaching position. He will oversee ST as an analyst.

I hate to be like this but I’m almost looking forward to how comically bad Napier handles Lagway this season. We’ll see how committed he is to this offense when he sees it up close and we lose 8 games.

Ahhh yes the proverbial cherry on top! That way you’re involved in everything but not really responsible for anything. That’s a successful management strategy. In my line of work these people are called project managers. It’s their job to throw other people under the bus on the morning call for things they were never made aware of.

Supposedly he prefers the NFL to college, it's worth a phone call that will never happen. We could offer him something like Executive Associate Offensive General Manager. That’d do the trick!
