Napier is the odds on favorite to be the first college coach fired
- Thread starter Mark Wheeler
- Start date
When we beat Miami you will see the list change significantly. Dabo being that high is crazy and if Napier was fired, I would take Dabo in a heartbeat.
I know this is just Vegas trying to make a buck, but for anyone who wants to place a bet on this, they should probably first find out what the buyout is for each of these coaches and what the athletic department budget looks like.
For Napier, the buyout would be $26+M.
But if someone thinks that $26M is pocket change for these athletic departments, also remember that now they will have to also find $23M to pay their athletes as part of the House court settlement.
So for UF, should they decide to fire Napier, they would have to find $49+M in their budget that they did not have last year.

Any list of odds is a reflection of perception of folks that bet because the purpose of odds is to get similar $ on both sides of the bet.
I don't think this list has much reality baked in though.
There is a 0% chance any of the following coaches with be fired this season or after this season; Cristobal, Narduzzi, Day, Swinney, Brown, Beamer, Venebles, Sanders, Riley.
They might quit but they will not be fired.
Napier has the President who hired him back, still has Strickland, huge buyout and murderous schedule. If he keeps the players engaged all season, he will be back.
