    Posters are trying to bend logic to make themselves feel better about the failings of the Napier regime. Nothing says successful program like saying, "well they suck more than we do."

    We both are bad no matter how much money the boosters are paying for talent but they are so bad, they cant even beat cupcakes. At least we can beat cupcakes.

    We both suck but they do suck worse and we will at least be able to beat their sorry asses which is better than losing to them. Beat ole Zmiss and LSU and we still have nothing to be proud of as far as a season but it would be better than being an sec bottom dwellar. At least we would be average.

    greg Knox 1-0 vs Norvell.

    Knox > Norvell

    simple math

    all kidding aside, Norvell has had better seasons but that doesn’t make him a better coach. He is 0-7 vs ranked teams on the road. At Florida state, including this season, he is 4-13 vs teams ranked in the top 25. (Heck, Napier is 3-0 vs FCS. Norvell is 2-1 with a humiliating loss to Jacksonville state).

    While Napier has disappointed at UF, it is hard to do an apples to apples comparison.

    You are a delusional old man that has zero clue how to build anything remotely successful because you are too emotional.

    You are quite literally the worst type of fan in the world as you actively sabotage the future of your team. I’d rather you be a Nole because then you’d be focused on us stinking now. Instead due to emotional 3rd grade understanding of process you’d prefer for us to suck forever. Good job, be proud.

    Go to your rocking chair, watch the games, and be quiet. You are so delusional that you don’t realize you are actively harming the long term viability of the program. You are quite literally the worst and Florida would be far better if you just disappeared.

    And mods you can clearly see he started attacking me first

    I’ve been quite clear that I think Norvell sucks. Napier is clearly just worse

    Besides everybody on earth should prefer:

    1. a 13-1 conference title year that is in the playoff discussion + 1-11 year

    over

    2. 5-7 crappy year and 6-6 crappy year (giving Billy one ranked and FSU)

    The marginal utility of going from a mediocre to a great year is far larger than the marginal loss going from mediocre to absolute shit.

    Having a great year the fans good a good experience, have memories, helps recruiting, and you get an actual freaking trophy.

    The actual difference between 5-7 and 1-11 is what exactly? They feel a little more shitty than us?

    Id take a 13-1/1-11 over constant .500 all the freaking time.

    I use data and process. When someone disagrees with you then your only go to is a personal attack. Thats all you got. When I respond I’m quite literally trolling you. You just aren’t quite there to understand it

    But seriously you are an emotional fan. Thats fine. You are a Florida fan so you think Napier is the best. But if you were a FSU fan you’d think Norvell was the best. If you were a Miami fan you’d be all in on Cristobal. If you were an Arkansas fan you’d think Pittman was Vince Lombardi. And so on.

    Thats who you are. That’s honestly fine but please be self aware. When people are discussing data, process, evaluation, and trying to be objective please step outside the room. You are probably fun to be with during gameday but you aren’t suited for the objective discussions.

    Yep I’m a FSU because I think Norvell stinks and should be fired but I’d rather have a conference championship over .500 seasons. Good argument bud.
