Coach Napier's EXit

[irokcj5]

I think he has enough experience to get a good look as HC, and if he has any interest in being HC, I think he and Napier and maybe Saban have already discussed the Louisiana opening, possibly relaying that to Dr. Maggard. No reason to believe that pipeline is not still in play.

If Napier has been helping Louisiana and Dr M find a quality replacement for HC and has been talking to Saban for the good of Louisiana, then 1) I’d be surprised, 2) if so then hats off to Coach Napier that speaks volumes to his integrity and loyalty to Louisiana.

Need to do everything possible to keep Juluke

This, this, this, 1000 times this.

That was my first thought when considering the loss of assistants.

I just want Naps to announce and move on. We have to look out for our best interests

Our best interests are absolutely as much stability as possible the final two games.

[CajunVic]

We need to move on asap. Recruiting

Bet another beer and relax . . .

As a Gator I'd be thrilled, but you wouldn't want him to coach this week? Literally all of us in Gator Nation are assuming he will.

He's grieving, please forgive him.

The Coaches all talk, it's like a club. Also, some may not remember, but Saban came and spoke to the UL team one spring or summer, so there is a little connection there.

Wow . . . I hope all associated with our sports teams are not that soft . . . move on, we will be fine . . .

Coach Juluke is building his state retirement. I'm not certain he would leave Louisiana, but you never know.

I’m sure Juluke is a great recruiter. His biggest expertise is in Louisiana with Louisiana high school coaches. Nobody likes uncertainty so Maggard needs to be careful about two coaches under contract.

I know there's nothing I can do about this but I'm still really upset. Napier was a heck of a coach for us. I trust that Maggard will hire someone good though.

[Cajun90]

Hmmmm..wonder if Billy is going to LSU.... LOL

If Maggard can nail this hire, he’ll be a coveted AD across the country. A lot riding on this one.

Interesting. Looks like Billy is bringing in Oklahoma State Defensive coordinator to be his d-coordinator. So no toney
