Coach Napier's EXit

[JMV JustMyView]

Based on what? That will be up to the new coach, won’t it?

Maggard made Napier keep Dez. When Napier leaves the new coach will be required to do the same.

"Made him" is a strong term, "convinced him to" is probably more accurate.

if Napier was "made to" keep someone he didn't want, it would have had toxic results.

Forced.

So Napier turned down auburn because he wouldn’t be able to make his own coaching decisions but we were able to get him while also forcing him to make coaching decisions?

Forced.

Not buying it at any price.

Coach Napier is now proven. When he arrived at UL he wasn't proven. Coach Deggs was forced to keep the current staff for year one.

Deion Sanders to Florida????

That is a particularly good point about Napier then and now, but Deggs did come into a situation where Robe wasn't even thinking about firing anyone, and all UL contracts go to June.

Coach Napier has bargaining power now.
