Time and time again, we here at Hail Florida Hail stated that one of the very real problems of the Billy Napier Era was a coaching staff that seemed determined to get its flowers the instant anything went correctly. It was a staff that lived online and sought validation and seemed aghast at the mere suggestion that they weren’t SEC-level coaches. Everyone who interacted with Napier himself would comment on how genuine a human being he was, and kept saying what a great person he was.
The problem is that being a people pleaser didn’t result in wins.
