Billy Napier’s “amateur hour” ledger at Florida just keeps growing

Before we begin, let's make something perfectly clear:

Billy Napier makes $7 million a year for seven years with an 85% buyout. If you straight-up offered the Florida Gators job to any high school coach in America with the same contract terms, every single one would take the job because even if they failed, they could retire and set up their family for life off the $40 million they would make.

And yet there are high school coaches making a $4,000 supplement who run circles around Napier when it comes to game-day management and decision making, as once again Napier's organization and process would barely be accepted on a JV football squad.
