Anyone remember when Billy Napier said…

I remember when he said scared money don’t make money.

 

Tell that to Strickland. Buyout is only $25mm

 

Second post and you beat me to it. Billy's a lot more humble now...

 

Billy IS scared money and scared money loses money. And games.

 

We are #4 in NIL according to this list.

Yeah, he's never rolled the dice once since he's been here. Fraud.

 

except the list has literally zero to do with NIL. I assume you didn't read the article

 

Who is Strickland and why would he care?

 

He’s blown a lot of smoke up gatornation’s ass. I don’t know what he and the staff watched all off season to exude the confidence he has displayed up to yesterday. Attention to detail and being the toughest football team. All BS.

 

I did read it. There are no exact reporting of NIL funds. The list is an extrapolation of the estimate funding situation for the top schools.

 

I'm actually remembering when he said that everyone would have to have patience with him as he built the program. I knew at that moment that he didn't really understand how short of a leash he would be given.

 

I remember when he said they were going to clean up and fix things at halftime against Miami. Then the Canes drove a bus down the field on our defense and scored. It reminded me that he talks a lot but doesn't/can't fix anything.

 

The end of the leash was yesterday. Being humiliated like that at home against a rival with virtually no positives and little energy means there is no more leash to me. It would have been better to have been beat by a last second, 55 yard field goal 31-28.
I have no ill will towards Billy; he never has to work another day in his life if he chooses, pretty rare in our society. We have three NC’s! We can’t go on like this.

 

A quote from a guy who coaches with a noose and two hands around his neck. The epitome of “scared”.

 

Build a program or burn it to the ground? I am confused…

 

Words…..just words.

 

If you're a super-booster, I'll take note of that assessment. The rest of us are just venting at an embarrassing lost to a team some consider our rival.

 

Well, to be fair, it was already on the ground. So, yes, build a program.

 

I’m not a super-booster, not sure your point.
