I love seeing the heart and desire these guys play with, i think Billy is a big part of why they play that way. The train is finally rolling down the track Billy needs one more shot at getting the team to come out of the gate this way. We would've been a playoff team had we played this way all season
What are yall talking about? We are losing by 14 to good teams on their worst days. By 28 on their best days. Gave up 28 pts in 2nd half, but you like what you see?
@@ryanlexander7661 While I tend to lean your way with this, much of UGA's bad play was caused by OUR defense. We look completely different since the 1st bye week. Noone denies that. Ultimately our lack of quality depth (incl. injuries) lost that game on Saturday.
A B+/A- game. The only big flaw is the choice of playcall after Georgia went up 27-20. We were wearing them out running the ball, just scored a 15 yd TD on the previous possession, The offensive line played awesome and Georgia going to an 8 and sometimes 9 man front couldn't stop the run. We should have picked up where we left off but instead got cute and had our 3rd string walk-on attempt a difficult pass which was picked and then eventually led to a score. Game Over.
Honestly, that game was over when it began. Just depended how long before it break loose. 3 picks made it just take a little longer. @patrickdezenzio4988
@@patrickdezenzio4988play calling will always be an issue as long as he’s head coach🤷🏽♂️. I’m very proud of the defense. They look like they have potential to be elite
Napier still sucked but enjoy the moral W. Lagway hit a big play and Beck kept UF in it. Napier is a bum coach who benefitted from UF having an idiot AD that hired him. LSU never considered him.
Coach Napier is looking rough. Good news and surprising news about DJ. I would love to have access to the voodoo witchdoctor they have on staff! I hope we give Coach Napier another year. If the team was playing from the start of the year as it is now, we wouldn't even be talking seriously about changing coaches. I think being a couple of months late still deserves another year. I think Coach Napier is still learning what it takes at this level and I think he's getting there. The coaches REALLY had the team ready to play. Next year's schedule is just as rough.
Fantastic news about DJ. Would love to have back in time for Texas, but if not, it's fine. Let's go Gators. Let's win out! It will be tough but we've gotten tougher each week. Love the fight our players have in them. F the haters.
I’ll admit I wanted him gone after the A&M game. But since then there has been CLEAR change with the team. All any of us fans should ask if that we are competitive against upper echelon teams in the conference. We almost beat Georgia with a qb from Yale. Lay off Billy he’s doing well
I’ve been very hard on Billy. However, watching this team the past few weeks, they compete and fight not just for the team or coach Napier but the university. I’ve seen the improvement. Injuries suck and the schedule is brutal. But the schedule is not going to get any better next season. I’m sticking with Billy for the time being. In all kinds of weather, go gators 🐊
They should let DJ heal completely before asking him to play again. Losing to Texas was expected from the start of the season and it would be better for DJ to play against LSU, Ole Miss and FSU.
Gators are competing and looking like an SEC team, pulling for this Coach to keep his job because Lagway will prob enter portal. Fla has really improved, competed their rear ends off the past 5 games....
@FLORIDAMAN8957 .....I definitely get the frustration, guess I just want Napier to succeed there, wish he would have Won that game in Tenn....going for 2.....played excellent with Ga with a 3rd string QB .....just see some good progress
I have been on every social media sight wanting Billy gone ALL SEASON..... really, I started LAST year wanting him gone.... but, I must admit that my tune is changing, I just feel like if he has 1 more year, a year where he starts the season with DJ at QB, Baugh at RB, Mizell at WR... I truly believe that if we're patient, givehim ONE more season, I think he'll change a LOT of minds Gator nation.... Give the coach next season, a year where he has all of HIS recruited players and let's see what he can do... i feel like if DJ had started the season as our QB we'd have 1 or MAYBE 2 losses at most so far... I think Miami would've been the only game that we would've probably lost either way, let's give him 1 more year
@@ryanlexander7661 They didn't gift anything. Our defensive schemes, pressure on the QB, and ball hawking got us those 3 interceptions. Give credit where it's due.
Napier hasn’t kept a QB healthy all season or any season at UF. One more year isn’t gonna prove that cause someone will get hurt knowing Billy and recruiting is ass ranked 51st and if he stays it will be ass next cycle too. He gotta go
The players are clearly behind Napier, it's time the fans do the same. Back the coach and the players! Clearly there is overall improvement with the team.... Tortious and the hare baby! Go Gators
Good job Billy y'all is really putting it together and it just need more we love you Billie you're the best man you competing at that kind of level a person or anybody would not understand
I don't like his play calling and offensive schemes and I don't like many of his decisions, but I admire the way the players are playing and that Napier hasn't quit on them either.
Napier is a class act and he has our team playing balls to the wall, despite the injuries and the naysayers. I really hope Napier will be retained. Next year, with DJ Lagway under center, we will win the national championship! I hope the Lane train gets derailed.
DJ Lagway, LJ McCray and Cormanie Mclain making an impact. Jason Zandamela is the last 5 star not on the field and contributing. Good players want to play for Napier. No doubt Napier will get a shot at another big school and the Hot Seat U will pull in another one for that revolving 3 year stint. Gonna be a Napier fan wherever he winds up. Looking forward to sticking his success in the face of the toxic side of the fan base.
Damn Napier sure likes to keep us waiting. Everybody in college football wanted one thing from this press conference - the status of DJ Lagway. Everything else is 2nd fiddle. He drug it out for nearly 3 minutes. Hard to tell what to take from it. If I'm Lagway's coach and I got positive news about his injury, I'm on the podium yelling Praise God!! But that's Napier for you, he's all business, rarely shows emotions, has a possible 2nd career acting as a Vulcan on Stat Trek.
I can’t believe were letting this guy come back!!! And the AD. FIRE SUNBELT BILLY!!! Im about to protest this guy. He is not a college football coach. At least an SEC level coach. Go Gators!!!
I really hate how most of the time can’t straight up answer a simple question with a simple answer somebody will ask a question an by the time he gets done answering I’m lost an done forgot what the hell question was asked
After what we saw at Tennessee and against Georgia, I'm personally more than willing to give coach napier at leats one more Year to prove himself! But I would like to see florida flirt with Ryan Day!!?
Look at Marcus Stokes stats at UWF...12 TD 7 INT in 91/162 This guy could have been the backup QB behind DJ Lagway, Yikes. Just as bad as Aidan Warner. What is Billy Napier? Hire a QB Coach ASAP!
Food for thought; knowing Mertz was out and down to DJ with always a possibility of him getting injured, WHY..is our 3rd string QB a non experienced WALK ON?
We need to get rid of Billy Napier I don’t see how he is so good of a coach when we keep losing football games he has had plenty of time to build our team and I don’t so him winning any national championship or any playoff games you have to win games to even get into playoffs his recruiting is very weak I definitely feel like they pay him to much money to be losing like we do
Billy Napier has integrity, honesty, discipline, and toughness, along with thick skin. Napier inherited a SEC disfunctional program with no coaching experience in the SEC. Napier has had to learn the SEC while building a disfunctional SEC football program from scratch. This years GATOR team is a young team that has the same traits as their coach...they are loyal, they play with integrity, and discipline, toughness, most of all, finally, are playing as a team on both sides of the ball. No showboating, no criminal action off the field, no disrespect or temper tantrums on the side line. Plus, 2024 players are loyal and love their Coaches. l am a lifetime die-hard Gator fan, who was ready for Billy to go, up until five games ago. It's my hope that powers to be, alumni, Gator Negative Fan Base, etc., will give Billy Napier one more year. He is building something special, not only football players, but young men who will be great men after football. Mark my words, the winning will come on the football field very soon.
It doesn't take 5 years to rebuild anymore. Coaches are rebuilding in 1-2 years look at IU and Colo. Winning? This guy has 18 losses in 2.5 years. He's 1-11 vs rivals. He's not a SEC caliber HC...stop accepting losing.
Come on coach I believe in you and the boys 💯🔥🐊

They're bottom of the barrel. Only Kentucky and Mississippi St. are worse.

With his comments on Wilson I feel he’s going to be announcing a redshirt year and possibly transferring at the end of the year

Actually I see a change coming. I was for Napier gone earlier but now i think he got it going. Not for dj injury this game was there’s for the taken
Thank goodness Lagway is ok. I thought that without Lagway we would lose our next three games and it would actually be a close game vs FSU
Poor Billy on the ropes. Do you want a good coach? I think he wants better. This team is good, these gators will be back 💪

Can somebody tell me what that shirt he is wearing says?
"compete". Not "win" just compete.
