Time is running out for Billy Napier as the Florida Gators head coach. The Gators need a culture shift, and the ideal candidate to do so is Tim Tebow. Over the last two seasons, Napier has an 11-14 record while also having a bowl loss. The tone for the 2024 season isn’t looking much different as they lost to Miami to open the season, the first opening game at home they’ve lost since 1989. That’s not an ideal look with Napier on the hot seat. To lose to Miami 41-17, it’s clear that Napier’s message is not resonating with the team with a lack of discipline, and it’s causing play to decline in addition to predictable play calling.
