Pittman vs Napier

[swampbadger]

Who you got getting fired first?

It would be a miracle if both survive the season. I think both fan bases are ready to move on and both teams face very tough competition.

 

[govols]

Pittman. Arkansas will hand the keys back to Bobby P, after he hands them the keys to his motorcycle

 

[cbhunter]

I see no scenario where Napier makes it through the season. That's schedule is one of the most brutal I can ever recall seeing

 

[wayne]

Going to be tough for Napier. They play 8 teams in the Top 25 Coach's Poll.

I agree that Napier is gone, just figure Pittman will be first.

 

[PalsPal]

Would Kiffin take the FL job?

 

[swampbadger]

I don't see either coach surviving the season.

A friend and I already made a lil preseason wager. Nothing personal against either man, but I got Pittman getting dropped first.

 

[swampbadger]

Would Kiffin take the FL job?

If ole miss has another 9-10 win season and the price was right I could see kiffin bounce on them for Florida.

 

[wayne]

Would Kiffin take the FL job?

Absolutely.

 

[TNTreeman]

Absolutely.

I think he'd kill it at Florida.

 

[deerfanatic]

Kiffin might take it but he has it rolling at ole miss and lots of fan support. Everything I've read says Floridas athletic departments are a mess and their nil is in bad shape. I know they have the better history the last 30 or so years but that Florida situation looks bad right now. They are really struggling. They may only win 4 games this year. 6 would be a good season with what they have coming and their team they have to play with.

 

[deerhunter10]

I think Napier first but I don't see either one making it. Beamer may also be on this list as well.

 

[Creek bottoms]

Pittman is an excellent O line coach if he wanted to fool with it after his buyout.

ewww I hadn't heard that.

 

[TNTreeman]

Not a fan of the gators but I can see a scenario where they over achieve and he stays bc of recruiting and potential. He's made a lot of changes and they were in the game last year with 3 -4 really good teams but lost. They could turn it around this year but I sure hope they don't .

What's crazy is UF is the top NIL school in the country.

 

[Trey13]

Kiffin would kill it at UF. I wanted him over Muschamp. And still want him.

 

[PillsburyDoughboy]

Kiffin would kill it at UF. I wanted him over Muschamp. And still want him.

I do think that Kiffin would kill it as you say at one of the top ranked schools. Hes doing a heck of a job at Ole Miss with what resources he has. Hes very limited in what he can spend in NIL money and I would imagine the facilities are much much nicer at UF which would be a huge recruiting tool. Imagine what he could do with the money at UF. I strongly suspect Ole Miss is going to be in the top Ten this season if not make a run at the top 5. Time Will tell.

As Far as Pittman goes I am shocked he is still there. On the other hand who are they going to get that is any better is the question they are probably wrestling with. Or else he would probably already be gone.

 

[PillsburyDoughboy]

Some surprising names on the top 10 or maybe not

https://collegefootballnews.com/new...he-hot-seat-whos-under-the-most-pressure-2024

1. Billy Napier, Florida

2. Mike Houston, East Carolina

3. Sonny Cumbie, Louisiana Tech

4. Sam Pittman, Arkansas

5. Scott Satterfield, Cincinnati

6. Joe Moorhead, Akron

7. Justin Wilcox, Cal

8. Brent Venables, Oklahoma

9. Luke Fickell, Wisconsin

10. Ryan Day, Ohio State

 

[swampbadger]

We had joe moorhead for 2 seasons, Im not surprised to see his name in there. Nice guy, but football is ultra competitive, gotta have Ws at some point.

 

[PillsburyDoughboy]

Arkansas hardest games are played at home if you buy into that. I think to a degree it does. You sometimes have the Home teams playing tricks like turning off the hot water, turning off the AC units , calling the hotels in the middle of the night waking players up. Stuff like that. So they pretty much control the environment.

I don't think venables is at all. Now if he bombs next year will be very hot. Having ryan day on any hot seat list is absolutely crazy. His record is unreal.

Almost everyone is saying if Day Cannot find a way to beat Michigan he is out. But Michigan will be lucky to make the playoffs this season. So there is that.

I see that out there to. I still think it's crazy talk.

 

[PillsburyDoughboy]

I see that out there to. I still think it's crazy talk.

I really thought they would get rid of him last year but when Harbaugh went to the NFL to mitigate getting shafted by the NCAA I think they saw light at the end of the tunnel.

I was sorta surprised when Oklahoma signed a new contract Venables for $51.6 million. I guess they figure a 10-3 Record last year is probably just good enough to get into a 12 Team Playoff this year. Then again who are they going to get that is any better at this point if they fire him?

That Tyson money spends good

 

[deerfanatic]

What's crazy is UF is the top NIL school in the country.

They may claim that but they have had a hard time holding on to commits and there's a certain qb they had that said they lied to him and he wasn't gonna get close to what they said and was gonna sue them. I haven't seen it said they are tops but I don't doubt Florida claims that. One of the things about nil is no one knows for sure what athletes are getting unless the athlete tells. It's a private contract between said player and whoever is paying them. All kinds of rumors float out there. I quit keeping up with Florida but I know they have struggles in that department. I think they would have been better to dump Napier at the end of season last year and start over. That ship is sinking fast from all outward appearances

Anthony Richardson put them on blast in the last couple days. Said no matter his draft status, he was done with Florida and wouldn't be back

 

[THEdonkey0515]

Short term prediction for UF.

They fire sun belt Billy by week 8 after UT and UGA make them look silly. Half their 40th ranked 2025 recruiting class walks, and some of the better players on the team hit the portal.they go in a complete rebuild again in 2025.

Just hope they don't do something smart like not take no for a answer from the Lane train .

Dang, Napier might outlast Pittman if that's the case.
