So much for all the "we arent starting over" talking point.

Man listen. This is a business. Billy Napier is worried about making Billy Napier successful. He is no longer worried about his ex employer. Yes, i think Billy left the “right way” by coaching the championship game…but i seriously doubt there was a handshake agreement regarding current coaches or support staff. And as far as BN contacts bs MD contacts….its like a major leagues to high school comparison. Doesnt mean MD cant do it, just aint gonna be easy to replace the quality across the entire organization right away. Think about the guys BN has been in the foxholes with grinding it out daily. Hes worked on SEVERAL staffs and with SEVERAL hundreds of people throughout the years. MD has not had that opportunity. Whoever thought this was about “maintaining” was fooling themselves…including Maggard

You make a lot of sense.

I just had a very brief conversation with a coach on the staff currently and it would lead me to believe that not all is well in paradise. Basically asked him one question, the answer surprised me but the nonverbals spoke even more loudly.

Please expand on that.

So, what was the question and what was the answer?

No

Stop panicking people! If we're bringing in coaches from bowl teams, it won't be announced until after they play. We will fill on-field coaching spots soon. Will be announced allowed.

Not panicking. But why would it wait to be announced until after bowl games. Wasn’t the case for our bowl game.

We aren’t starting over. Coordinators are in place, just not announced yet. Strength coach will bring in his own people.

No

Because those guys would be in the middle of bowl prep right now. The coaches that left for Florida were most probably already known once it was announced that Billy was leaving.

……….Well just think about the program and what just happened…….They won the NO Bowl with a new head coach, left over assistants, without star all American players on offense and defense, did a great job of keeping early signees, made a very favorable impression on those being recruited……I can assure you there are VERY capable coaches across the country itching like hell to become a part of this culture……Same goes for associates and staff positions whom will be hired only if they can fulfill the high standards of the guys that are no longer here…ll.also I think that the money pool will help as far as that is a concerned to talented hiring!

[JamesTheJeweler]

I will say THIS. Whenever I feel myself going off the rails and getting too negative, or the thread in general. Im just gonna post this picture to remind us how far we've come.

[Rougarou]
