I was extremely impressed when I visited last year. I don't understand how any knowledgeable UK football fan could not be impressed with the improvement of the program.They already got it. It's not really new they just got rid of the track that infringed on the field and made it larger and solely for football. It think they spent like $10M on the remodeling. It's as good as anything else in the SEC now.
Yeah, I’ve thought all along that Napier won’t make it past our game without getting axed if we win in Gainesville this year. Think we were also the reason Muschamp was let go at SC, could be wrong. Your recruiting is way too good to not be a top tier SEC school at this point, think it goes to show how important it is finding the right coach and keeping him there for stability.I was extremely impressed when I visited last year.

We once looked at UK as one of the weakest teams on our schedule. 50, 60 or 70 points was the expectation. That is history now. UK fans should embrace the improvement and build on it.
How important is UK in the SEC now? Well Florida fans have the game circled as a must win. Right there with Miami and FSU. Napier can't afford to lose another one to Kentucky.
What do you even mean by held accountable? Fired? Short of that, why do people want him to be punished?

You will not get an argument from Florida fans. SEC fans may consider his seat as "warm" but Florida fans say it is boiling hot.Uhhhh, then Napier is truly toast, my friend!!
If any names surfaced as to potential replacements?You will not get an argument from Florida fans. SEC fans may consider his seat as "warm" but Florida fans say it is boiling hot.
Just speculation and that from fans. Many would be OK with following the UK Basketball Model. That being; hiring a young energetic coach who wore the uniform and also won a National Championship. Tim Tebow would be the Mark Pope of UF. This may be far fetched because Tebow has never coached but he would certainly have fan support and nobody is more Gator than him. Also the money would flow and would not be an issue.If any names surfaced as to potential replacements?
At this point everything is wishful thinking.
We should build him a statue.*We still have compliance issues
*Botched hirings/firings/contracts
*Wrong side of NIL
*Gets offended at any fan feedback
Mitch has had more money flowing in than any AD in UK history. What do we have to show for it?
Is the athletic dept better than ever ? I would argue we have far underachieved based on available resources and support.
