Florida offensive line coach Darnell Stapleton has been hired by the NFL's Washington Commanders.

I was guessing that something like this would happen.
Napier doesn't seem to "fire" staff, but seems to push them to the NFL, or in the case of Hoke, to a "re-assignment".
The exception seems to be Raymond and Spencer, but that may have been more of influence from Armstrong.

Change isn't always bad. But we need to replace him with someone really good before spring practice.

Napier might be one of those coaches that people don't like to work for? I hope not. That's one Saban trait you don't want to emulate!

I wish it was Sale and probably wasn’t because Stapleton was better thought of since Sale had already been fired from an NFL job. Let’s see if Napier promotes his QB assistant coach Ryan O’Hara to a field position so Napier can be like Meyer and concentrate on Special Teams.
