I appreciate all he did but now he’s gone. If you want a victory lap retire from here.

I hate it when coaches don't play out the season. But I understand either way.

I understand your view, I think the players will be more focused to win with him here.

Gatordadx4, you got a good one here, man! There have been a lot of distractions for young folks over the last few years. Some coaches handled it like ____ ( see goofball Orgeron) Others like Nape have handled distractions with dignity and class and our players performed for him, the fans and the School. Ill be so surprised if he doesnt do the same at UF. Best of luck to the Gators. You have a fan here.

Yep. For me it was at the end of the game last night, and then today it’s even worse.

The way I read his statement is that he will coach the team this week and be gone afterwards.

Re: Coach Napier message

Can we throw in Bob Marlin for free?

And for all the LSU folks that said he wasn't good enough for them. I hope Florida beats the hell out of them every year they play.

Your boys best get used to a standard in everything they do. You thug it up or half step and your scholarship is awarded to a walkon. Do players wear suites on trips or walking into get ready on gameday? They will now...

Bob Marlin, JMV and a small fee. Cleaning house would be nice while we at it.

Re: Coach Napier

I just want to say that I will root for the Ragin' Cajuns from now on. I always liked the name, but you all are classy people and whenever I see your team on tv I'll pull for them. You have a really good AD so I'm sure he will find another great replacement. You could be the next Boise St, UCF or Cincy with the right choices for coach. Just don't settle and hold those in charge accountable. I'll be watching the championship game this weekend and regardless of who is on the sideline, I'll be rooting for The Cajuns to win! All the best Ya'll!

I'm fine with him coaching for the SBCCG, I'm sure it's what the players want.
