Well now I’m stuck in a rabbit hole. I see nothing about Napier being fired. But if they can shit can him for cause because of the Rashada thing that saves 26million.
Rumor was Kiffen was upset about not even getting an interview when Strickland hired Napier. Gators will have to throw a bunch of money at him. But I believe his wife is a Gator so who knows.
I figured they wouldn’t do anything til after the Miss St game. Then a bye.

Is Napier gone? What did it cost? Not fired yet. But his time is running out. I expect the next two games with Miss State and UCF will seal his fate and they let him got before Tennessee unless he pulls out a miracle and wins both games. But who is the interim Head coach? Is it Jabbar Juluke or do we get Spurrier out of retirement to finish the season? They will owe Napier $25.67 million whether they do it now or at the end of the season according to Bleacher Reports. 50% within 30 days and the rest over time. They may be hoping the NCAA says he violated recruiting rules and then they don't have to pay. But the Boosters will cough up the cash if need be. But the trustees have not set up a meeting to discuss Napier's termination. bleacherreport.com/articles/10135426-report-billy-napiers-fate-sealed-for-florida-boosters-latest-contract-buyout-info

I figured they wouldn’t do anything til after the Miss St game. Then a bye. The Gators are paying Napier over $7 mil. Kiffin is making $9 mil at Ole Miss. I think the Gators could hire him at $10 mil. U.F. would also have to pay ole Miss $4 mil for Kiffin's buyout. Considering the Coaches we have hired and fired and the payout due them, $10 mil is not a bunch of money. Is Kiffin the guy we want, if we are spending $10 mil a year?

Don’t know that this connection really helps the Gators land him.

I hated Kiffen, cocky asshole, but in my opinion he’s matured a lot. Eating humble pie does that to a man. I’d be all in on Kiffen.
