weird. when does he and maggard bail to go to sec?will this be first time school coach is leaving from has to pay the buyout?

WTF?

A sunbelt coach has to have proven success to pick the best situation. That is to not jump at first offer from bottom feeder big 5 job. Naps is making $$$$$ and has job security. If he sustains this success he will leave for the right fit. Like a poster said earlier after 2020 or 2021. I have heard him mention stability for his family often. I'm gonna enjoy this ride and trust the process Mags has built.To be honest, Mags leaving scares me more. Think Scott farmer.Now that's a Halloween nightmare right there.

I personally think our chances of having Nap here next season are 50-50. He won't turn down an offer like Hud did to Tulane. I think if a school from a better conference offers, he will be gone. That's contingent on him winning 10 games this year, which I think is a strong possibility.

Yes he will turn down something like a Tulane offer. Rob Sale turned down the OL position at Alabama to stay here. Coach has said at QB Club meetings most of his staff is tired of moving around and wanted to stay put for awhile. Besides he thinks we can be a Boise or UCF here in time.

Probably means he’s not putting together back to back 10+ win seasons if he’s still here.

He can be in position to take the UNC, South Carolina or Tenn jobs when they come open. He has the pedigree.

Ultimately, I’d like this whole staff to stay here for a decade.

Smart move. Focus on rest of season now.

Well as long as we beat Troy next Wednesday I'll be ok.

.....If there were a way to judge the differential between the improved attendance of HUD and Nap, I think HUD wins by a lot.....think he could sell the program better and the economy was soooomuch better.......however, I think Nap has a tougher road in that the scheduled teams are much better......the rise of the belt from dead last to being mean ranked 15 points over cusa can attest to this.....let’s hope that the Appy game can resurrect some butts in the seats!

History says he'll have to put together at least two, maybe three special seasons to get a P5 job. That was the case with Satterfield and Neal Brown. I expect it to be the same with Napier.

I'd prefer to beat App State next Wednesday.

Well that may be open bc Fritz is doing a damn good job. He would double his salary and be in a better conference. I’d bet my house that Nap would not turn that down. You have to strike while the irons hot in his profession.

All I know is that NOBODY knows. That is a fact JACK.

Eaux Eaux, you must be mixed up.
