Matt Hayes thinks these are the 5 best replacements for coach Napier.

Five coaches (in order of value) Florida should consider if/when it moves on from Billy Napier.
1. Lane Kiffin, Ole Miss: The stronger Ole Miss becomes, the less chance anyone has of hiring him.
2. Jedd Fisch, Washington: Would he leave Seattle for his alma mater after one season?
3. Eli Drinkwitz, Missouri: If Tigers reach the College Football Playoff, it will be difficult to convince Drinkwitz to leave.
4. Bobby Slowik, Houston Texans offensive coordinator: He’s 37, he’s a brilliant offensive mind/quarterback coach, and five-star freshman quarterback DJ Lagway needs a reason to stay.
5. Lance Leipold, Kansas: The program builder (and NCAA lower division championship coach) would finally get his blueblood job.

We need a HR hire as the HBC. Kiffin qualifies, Fisch qualifies, Drinkwitz probably qualifies, and I would probably include Bill O'Brien at BC. He brought Penn St back from the grave after the Paterno fiasco, and he was Brady's QB coach with the Patriots for several years. BC took FSU to the woodshed last Saturday after less than a year as their HC. No matter who we hire, it is essential that someone includes Spurrier in the decision. In fact, I would make Spurrier say no to being the AD after we fire Strikland as well.
