Virginia Tech Hokies Coaching Candidate Carousel: Billy Napier

Billy Napier is a bit of a Nick Saban clone. While there are a number of positives to this, there can be a glaring issue that comes with it as well. This is a look into who Coach Napier is and what he might be like as the new head coach of the Virginia Tech Hokies.

Coach Napier began his career playing quarterback at Furman from 1999-2002. He then went on to coaching learning his craft from Dabo Swinney and Nick Saban. Through those 10 years he focused on the offensive side of the ball and while having a few lean years, he did earn it two National Championships while at Alabama, one as an analyst and another as wide receivers coach.
