Here we go with rumors.

Building a consistent winner at UL or any other G5 program is a near impossible job. There are just too many variables and head winds against you to have long term success. That said, winning a national championship at MSU or any other mid tier P5 school is just as impossible and would take a level of cheating that even SEC schools would be embarrassed by.
As for Napier, it all depends on what his endgame is. If money is the primary driver, MSU or most P5 schools are a good gig to get. Hopefully he continues to win so we can have this problem.

Here's a hypothetical for the site...

If Napier is approached at year end by [TEAM A], and the difference is double his salary ($865K), would you be willing to pay the RCAF to make up the difference?

ICYMI:
Napier makes $865,000/year
Another school offers him $1,730,000/year
Can the RCAF ask supporters to make up the $865,000 difference?
-The cost would be $865 extra for 1,000 RCAF members...

No. I’m sure there are plenty of qualified coaches willing to work for 865k.

LOL, everyone on here would say that they would want to see how he does next year before putting up anymore money.

I’m thinking most potential suitors would feel the same.

Napier doesn't seem like a money guy.. He was more concerned about money for his assistants because he understands what it takes to win. The situation is more important than the program.

Doesn't the RCAF already supplement his salary?

Sorry but the AAC has only played twice on New Year's Day since their founding in 2013 and are 1-1 in those games. If you want to go back further as the Big East, most of them are in bigger conferences now.

We will not lose our coach to an AAC school.

Fair enough, I was thinking of UH beating Florida St, but that was NYE Chick-fil-A and other instances of their success over P5 bowl games, that weren't New Year's Day.

Is because he’s weird, he’s a Scientologist or whatever. His recruiting suffers because of it. I never said miss st was this great job but it pays awfully well

A lot of coaches are weird, a lot of really successful people are weird. Job security pays well too.

You asked why Florida took so long to hire him, and I told you why but keep moving the goalposts and changing it up.

My original comment was In reference to miss st being a dead end job

But do the math, Miss st pays over 3 mill, even if you get fired in 3-4 years you make way more than that job security you’re speaking of

because he is weird? And he somehow he got less weird? Maybe Florida finally hired him because the current AD at Florida was Mullen’s AD at miss state for 7 years. The amount a school pays has nothing to do with wether it’s a dead end job.

HUD isnt gonna be the next head coach at Miss St?
