By the end of spring 2024 Billy had a top 10 recruiting class and brought in #1 DL, #1 QB, #1 Inside O lineman and 5 star Cormani. Billy did that in the face of headlines screaming hot seat. This year recruits are assuming Napier is being kicked out and why would anyone sign with a coach that is not expected to be there next year. Calling Napier a poor recruiter is lazy ignorance.
@@joshrich6036 - see 247 rank for 2024 class, #7. ESPN rank includes portal and has 2024 Gators at #14. Napier did this with daily headlines of HOT SEAT used for negative recruiting against the Gators.
I think this is just Billy attempting to be ambiguous on if Lagway is playing. Admitting he's out for the game just makes it easier for Texas to prepare.
Yeah, maybe admitting he is out kinda makes it easier for Texas to game plan. But all Sark has to do in the event that Lagway doesn’t play is focus on a one dimensional run team. Not too terribly hard to game plan for that situation. Don’t get me wrong, I like the gamesmanship from Napier, but in this case it likely doesn’t matter much. The more difficult task is attacking Florida’s revamped defensive system
Is this guy really saying he didn't do recruiting? We had a top 3 class before getting poached by high dollar nil schools. That's not a billy thing. + He has had no problem getting elite QBs to commit,just have to keep em. Got one on board already for 2026 too
Never mind losing your QB1, RB1 and RB2, WR1 and one of your top safeties your top two DBs and multiple Dline. The fact that florida is competitive right now shows talent and development alot of Florida's good players are sophomore and freshman but bringing in the #1QB #1 interior Olinemen and #1DE in a class shouldn't be overlooked especially when these players are living up to their ranking.
9:30 this makes ZERO sense. There are probably only 2 teams in the entire country that are not dependent on their Quarterback staying healthy to ensure their success. You think Texas has a CFP shot if Ewers and Manning go down? UGA is vulnerable only because of Beck… What’s Miami look like without Cam Ward? Heck, does Vandy win another game if Pavia gets hurt? The roster is clearly better than it was because we are seeing improvement week after week from the defense and O-Line. He brought in the #1 player on offense and defense last year with a losing record. Insanity to call him a bad recruiter
This is probably not going to end well... A desperate Napier might sacrifice an injured Lagway by entering him back in the rotation way too early just to possibly win a game / save his job. This is getting out of hand!
He has never done anything like that, I don't care if you want him gone, but to say something like that is not even close to the character of the person you are speaking about.
I just don’t understand what did people expect this team to be this year ? Look Miami and a and m was unacceptable but that Aside we’ve been playing a freshman at qb (had a slew of other injuries) and have taken the best teams in the country to the absolute brink. The fire Billy narrative needs to end for at least for now
Lagway was carted off the field as a safety precaution ……..he had a pulled hamstring not a torn one but they didn’t know they til the mri . Kind of a big difference
@@jkmarshall3553 I know people who played for Napier at ULL. He is a Christian, and to do what you suggested would go against every principle he holds to.
The absolute WORST thing is to announce it before they play. This should've been held tightly under wraps so Texas would make a game plan focusing on Warner instead of Lagway.
Lagway’s not playing. It’s just gamesmanship to force the opposing team to have to prepare for two QBs instead of one. Coaches do this all the time. Would be very surprised if Lagway plays.
Almost every team in the country has a fate that is tied to one player when it’s the QB other than Texas. That opinion is pretty ridiculous considering they aren’t on their 2nd string QB, they are on their 3rd……and they were kicking a field goal to go up 3 on UGA with 7 minutes left…..with their RB1 and RB2 out. WR1 out. DB1, DB2, DB3 out and still competitive on the field? Could there possibly be a better example of the roster being good enough? What are you two talking about? lol
You're probably correct, but all three of the SEC teams we face have played poorly at times and none are undefeated, and thus have proved they can be beat...
He doesn't have to "get better" 3.5 years in. He has to win. This isn't a moral victory school. Especially when you look at what Mime Elko and Curt Cignetti are doing year 1 and what Dan Lanning and Mario Crystabol are doing when they were hired the same year. Oh and Billy lost the Tennessee game all on his own
@ your eyes, my eyes are seeing 4 straight losing seasons. 3 under him. Repetitive mistakes and costly penalties. Don’t give me the he walked into a dumpster fire bs. NIL and portal have made it to where you can flip a roster in a months time. No excuses for this piss poor staff and administration. Own up to it and get the hell out of Gainesville.
Dumb ass move to try and play DJ Lagway a week after he was taken off the field on a cart. Your going to get him hurt seriously and your still going to get fired at the end of the season.
Hire Billy as the guidance counselor. Hell hire him as the school president. But he absolutely does not have the killer instinct to be successful in this league
The previous 3 coaches got fired with better records than Billy..why does he get a pass when he’s clearly been the worse??? Nice guy? Moral victories?? Losing with integrity?? loser mentality

He's not a good recruiter bro. Never has had a top 10 class, lost several high quality recruits even before the hot seat talk. He's done
Billy needs to go back to the Sun Belt. 💀

Dude, your numbers are all F'ing wrong!
#keepBilly f the haters and crybaby fair weather Gators. Billy is the our coach now and next year.

Coach Speak…Tough stretch of games for Florida lies ahead…
Pure gamesmanship, save him for the last 3
Sit him out against Texas.
@@jayceisdaddy That is what I was saying by saying that lol. The last 3 games are LSU, Ole Miss, and FSU.
Its easy to fix for Billy. Hire and excellent recruiter and and OC. That would be huge
The absolute WORST thing is to announce it before they play. This should've been held tightly under wraps so Texas would make a game plan focusing on Warner instead of Lagway.
Quit calling it recruiting, it is now called free agency and you know it
The injury wasn’t that significant but you didn’t want to have him play the rest of that Georgia game because then he would’ve out for the season
What about Eugene Wilson??
Lagway’s not playing. It’s just gamesmanship to force the opposing team to have to prepare for two QBs instead of one.
Coaches do this all the time. Would be very surprised if Lagway plays.
Get a new offensive coordinator
Save DJ until Ole Miss
Why you gonna lose both.might as well get well
Dj going to Texas, back home. Yeah, he's gonna play.
Ive hurt my hamstring and it doesnt heal that quick ,dont count on him
So far, Billy is 1-10 versus his rivals.
More to it than that bro. Support your boys. They believe in Billy. You know it.
I told people from the beginning our schedule ain't as bad as it seems just on paper
It's by far the toughest schedule in decades for anyone.
As things stand now, Florida has or will play: # 2,4,5,7,14,15,16

Florida wasn’t up 3 with 7 minutes left against Georgia. The last time Florida had a lead in that game was before the 7 minute mark of the 3rd quarter
Gators will beat FSU. You lose to Texas, LSU and Ole Miss. Both LSU and Ole miss qbs better than Carson Beck. Will finish 5-7.

Why does the guy on the right look like Tim Tebow
He’s not playing Texas but he will play LSU
They ve gotten better but still lose i hope your able to keep billly around for a while, you might beat fsu
Last I checked…coaches don’t get paid 7 million a year to be “a good guy”
They get paid to develop and turn around a train wreck of a program. He is doing that. Even if you refuse to acknowledge what your eyes are seeing.

@kswiss6978 the results are on the field. Kick rocks you fake Gator.
Dumb ass move to try and play DJ Lagway a week after he was taken off the field on a cart. Your going to get him hurt seriously and your still going to get fired at the end of the season.
Billy don’t care about Lagway’s health. This kid isn’t going to make it to the end of the season 💀
I know guys who played for him at ULL. He's a Christian and cares more for the players as people than as players.
Hire Billy as the guidance counselor. Hell hire him as the school president. But he absolutely does not have the killer instinct to be successful in this league
He's not playing
Omg. I just realized something. I can't care anymore. I don't care.
how much longer to we have to endure billy bob
Even one more game is way too much!
The previous 3 coaches got fired with better records than Billy..why does he get a pass when he’s clearly been the worse??? Nice guy? Moral victories?? Losing with integrity?? loser mentality
Ultimately, they were fired because they weren't winning, but also because the culture at UF was lacking under those coaches.
uf will beat tex and ole miss but lose to lsu and fsu....fl hates beating rival teams and tex and ole miss are not rivals...6-6 record ...gotta go
If he finishes 6-6 he's not getting fired.
There not beating Texas 😂😂
