**The end is coming, for Billy Napier at Florida**

The fsu game could be a battle for second best team in the State, except that we still have to beat UCF for it to be that.

 

don't forget FAU/FIU/AM/USF

 

Would O'Cyrus Torrence be the lone exception?

 

Meh, it's not surprising with the lack of leadership in Gainesville right now. It's gonna be a mess for a minute IMO.

 

Fuchs is more interested in making "fun" impressions on social media. No one there to make a hard call.

 

Fuchs says “not my job”
Fans, “Do your job”

Is there a search for a President yet? How long would it take?
Then does a new guy want to deal with an AD and HBC firin* and hiring?

Then the year is 2525 (maybe 3535) if football is still alive.

 

Beat UCF and fsu, we get the Second Place Trophy. All ours.

 

Didn’t Shane Matthews say the boosters will make the next hire ?

 

To me the lack of linemen simply means bad recruiting. Plain and simple.

 

Given the guys doing the Presidential search it could take a long time. Hope I'm wrong, but there are other state universities who have been without a permanent Prez for awhile. Total cluster xx from top to bottom right now.

 

Does the coach only wear black? Someone should tell him the school colors..

 

Basically Napier say his approach was to start Mertz in each half, then alternate the two on a pre-planned basis leaving the option open to extend one guy's turn depending on the situation. He said that way the QB's wouldn't be "looking over their shoulder", but, still would allow some room for playing out the hot hand. Personally, I don't have a problem with how he did that. The problem to me was the plays that were called the entire first half. In the second half, there was some immediate success with mid-range passes. That probably would have worked in the first half, too, and made it a game. Longer passes weren't working because of the OL breakdowns and Mertz' inability to hit a wide open receiver downfield. Runs weren't working because of our OL not getting a push and because of aTm's known excellent D-line. Still, he refused to do anything on first down except run up the middle for one or two yards, leaving 2nd and long way too often.

 

That's what he said this morning, as did Buddy Martin.

 

Beating UCF will be a challenge.

 

"A lot of talent has left Gainesville"

 

I remember looking back at the players Muschamp let leave and seems like we missed a few of those guys.

 

Need a dedicated thread for the Napier hall of shame.

 

That talent wouldn't have been developed in Gainesville.
