Ok, so ya’ll know Napier isn’t getting fired, right?!?!?

So @sadgator was right. With possibily the worst recruiting class in decades right now, it will be interesting to see how many of our better players leave for greener pastures after the season. I'm glad basketball season has started and am really looking forward to the spring sports already.

I think this was a huge mistake to issue a statement as you are admitting you have a problem. As for players leaving, a lot of top schools (with a lot of money) will be looking for a QB. Worried about that honestly.

This reeks of Zook with a much lower winning %
 
Apparently the “negotiations” with Lane Kiffin weren’t going very well…

Lol…

Fever is like…

He put the statement out to help Napier recruit. We need to win one of the SEC games and FSU and play in a bowl. Get some momentum going.

it’s completely obscene that a public university would pay out 8 figures to buy out a coach. You can say oh boosters pay it, but buyout money unquestionably could have been applied somewhere else that taxpayers then have to cover.

If FSU ever starts talking about paying Norvell’s $80 mill buyout, the attorney general’s office should get involved imo.

This is HUGE news. Not the part about Napier, but the part about Sad being right! He was on a lengthy losing streak, and that has now finally come to an end. Congrats Sad!!!

Since football pays for EVERY other sport the University competes in, I would say protecting the investment is important. If football money dries up, there is no other sport making money.

As you have stated, and I agree with, no guarantee these kids stick around anyway. Hell, Lagway, Baugh, Wilson, etc could all enter the portal regardless. I

Well we paid buyouts to Mullen and Mac and we see how that “investment” worked out.
