      @@Freshy_Jones 3-6, then 5-7, then 10-3. BN will get nowhere near 10-3 this year even in our wildest dreams. Problem is his game day decisions are suspect. His clock management is amongst the worst. His choice in coaches has been BAD, especially at D with Hop Along Armstrong. He abused Richardson's talent in year 1 and made him look absolutely lost. I'm hoping otherwise, but the writing is on the wall and only he can change it.

    need to win at least 8 games period. That shows true progress and promise moving forward no matter the schedule.need to show it on the field.

    I feel Billy Napier isn’t getting really treated fair bc of how TOUGH the schedule is. Look at the NON CONFERENCE schedule. It’s not just the conference schedule, yes life in the SEC is TOUGH, but the Gators play THREE schools in the same state. Miami, UCF, and of course, Florida State. 2 of those are at home, so we’ll see if he can take advantage of the home crowd helping Florida winning some of these non conference

Napier has been over his head since day 1 and was never the right guy for the job! Napier is a good guy but that doesn’t win you football games! Btw, Napier could be given several more years and WiLL NEVER have a winning season at UF!

    Perhaps Coach Napier has done good that Graham Mertz has returned for another year and that the offseason transfers coming in seem ok? but does this remotely make up for losing senior defensive end Princely Umanmielen going to Ole Miss as well as Trevor Etienne leaving for Georgia as well?… If the football program atmosphere was so great with all the Napier coaching staff army along with the new state of the art facilities that everyone was drinking the Koolade then those two wouldn’t have bolted to key opponents in the SEC… As well, how come in 3 years of Coach Napier recruitment and Coaching development efforts we only seem to have only one viable Wide Receiver in Tre Wilson to speak off? in a football talent rich State like Florida?… Lastly Bud Martin struggled to find any positive comparisons of Coach Napier going in to his 3rd season to previous successful Gator Coaches that actually have to do with winning games. The Strength & Conditioning program for the past two seasons has been a bust when it comes to SEC caliber play along with the Special Teams miscues costing games was inexcusable. Meanwhile, we will root for our Gators in 2024 starting with beating Miami despite being pegged the underdogs in the Swamp.
