    Exactly. The post says Foley hires only have 38 losses since 2016, it’s wildly inaccurate.

    The sailor in me that can't be washed off really really likes this comment. Boys in dresses are called Katoi in Thailand and ive seen more than one bro play the crying game.

    What about the NC's part? 18-0?

    That part is either true or close to it, outside of Nesty (who was already here), Scott’s hires haven’t won a SEC or NC. Every single one has been Foley’s folks.

    Not for Napier. It was a grand slam, hole-in-one, half-court buzzer-beater all rolled into one. He hit the jackpot.

    Not directed at you, but 0 titles vs 2 coaches fired for abuse, how is this even a question?

    I don’t recall seeing it originally but I googled napiers salary and it was less than $1 million per yr. Glad we paid $7. Cool.

    Money still runs it and the guys with the money say whether you can fire a coach or not. Is the university paying the buyout? That would be news to me.

    don't forget the basketball coach before Finley (cam) and the soccer coach before Bohan. Both were disasters.

    They are totally made up, I'm not even sure where the 18 National Championships comes from.

    Reminds me of 2020 and some guy on twitter saying we have never before given up so many points, when we had 3 seasons earlier.

    We were desperate and probably had been turned down by several higher rated candidates. Heupel to Ut, Christobal to the U.

    Heupel was at UT in 2021. He had already left UCF when we had the opening.
