Have you changed your mind about coach Napier?

Did this season or really the last 3 games chance your mind on coach Napier?

I like him more now that I did a month ago but I'm still not 100% sold on him.

We are on a winning streak and doing great in recruiting but it still doesn't feel like he is a championship winning coach.

If he would either improve in his time management skills and/or transfer the play calling duties to another coach/hire a legit Offensive Coordinator, I would be 100% of a changed mind. However, with the improvement since the Kentucky game (minus Texas), being on fire the last month in recruiting, I am happy he is getting another year, especially since he beat 3 guys who most of us thought would have been better choices in Brian Kelly, Mark Stoops and Lane Kiffin. Now let's finish the recruiting with a top 10 class, win our bowl and start out next year as a Top 25 team with a Heisman hopeful at QB.

Just who do you feel is a championship winning coach? Kiffin? He's never done it.

Napier still has a lot to prove. Nothing in the last 3 games excuses how the defense looked for over 2 seasons nor how unprepared we were for Miami and Texas A&M. I’m far more optimistic than I was earlier this year.

We need at least a five game sample to start next season before we know if he's the one.

If we're 4-1 or 5-0 he's a keeper. If we're 3-2 or worse he needs to go.

Kiffin has not won any championships. Napier has won the sunbelt so there you go. Unless you have the 26 Million for Napier and the 10 Million for the staff or are funding the NIL you might want to consider getting on board for at least another year.
One year yes but not long term if he can't get us to the playoffs next year.
