Same, within hours.

Sure you are not thinking of Doug Nussmeier his name came out as a potential hire & was a former Bama coach

[Hudsheen#Fired]

Have to give Clutch some credit, he mentioned Napier in a thread about 2 weeks prior to the announcement. Not a single person in our admin had Billy on the radar until a certain phone call was made and Maggard met with Napier. Days after, he was signed. In fact, another coach had a contract being drafted when "the phone call" happened.

no that was me. i was first to mention his name on the site

No i still have the text and my buddy isn’t a crazy follower of sports, Napier was on the radar from the beginning regardless of what people want to believe..things change through the process of who becomes the leading candidate etc...but he didn’t get his name out of thin air and it was hours after huds firing was announced. When they announced Napier my first thought was how the F did he know that..then i remembered who he worked for.

Nope.

Well, I spent too many hours of my ever-decreasing life on-line tracking this stuff and Napier's name came out of the blue for me. Of course, all that means is that I'm not connected, but then you guys already knew that. LOL

BTW, I still spend too many hour of my ever-decreasing life watching this stuff.

Hey.. everybody's into something, right?

[CrazyCajun]

Nope.

Ok..is that your 100% Rock solid answer? And for the record i was told the same as you about Pry the night before but Napier’s name surfaced for a reason in the beginning. It’s ok to admit occasionally you don’t know everything that goes on here. I never heard anything about Napier except that text within 3 hours of hud being fired...and really who cares, glad he is the guy.

Big shocker that someone would make that comment.

Anyway, anyone's name can "surface". If you remember, Napier was thought to be a leading candidate for the Zona State job when Hud was shown the door. After the infamous "rock solid" post, believe it or not, a certain someone from admin felt bad enough for me to tell explain the situation from start to finish. Didn't happen until this year, but that person eventually did explain, with two others at the table, what I'm telling you guys here.

That's cool I enjoyed the ride of not knowing

[CajunEXPRESS]

Same here Crazy. I’d never heard of Napier until right after Hudspeth dismissal. Several weeks later Brent name, and I said oh well. Why his name was mentioned so early , I’ve no idea. Maybe his agent was pimping his name in general. All I’m certain if is I got that name very early.
