I’ve thought for a while that Heupel gets us approximately around where Chip Kelly got Oregon. I think we become somewhat of an “it” school.

Which, considering the last 15+ years, I’d kill for.

No kidding. If Heupel can scrape together some 10-win seasons, maybe a couple NY6 bowls, some playoff hype...I'll be happy as a clam.

Heupe may never get us to championships. But not sure why people think there’s a cap on him. If you have elite QB play, which we will, you can win it all. Add Rodney coaching up our DL and that’s the two most important positions in football being developed by elite coaches.

Give Heup an elite QB like Nico and I don’t think people should be talking about what he can’t do.

Anyone listen to the SEC Podcast? Host has someone on there who is supposedly a SEC guru and he raved about Napier. Said he sold UF on his plan and they’re bought in. Similar to Dabo with Clemson. Said he could have a Kirby like impact at Florida.

Went on to say he didn’t think Heupel was the guy to get us where we want to ultimately go but that we finally have “an adult in the room” and that ten win seasons would come under Heupel.

Just what we need…. 🙄. I’m hoping he crashes and burns. Hopefully nowhere near what Kirby has done with Georgia and that machine… we’re in trouble if that’s the case.

It seems that thinking has to do with his Veer and Shoot system on offense and his perception from alot out there his lack of recruiting top notch players. They might be right… they might not be. Who knows yet. We’ll get the answers here soon

I think the recruit question will be answered with this class.

Really need cristobal to do well at Miami and …. well, nevermind, I’ve given up hope on FSU. But yeah, Miami be good to help make things harder for Florida.

Cristobal has a tremendous staff and the school is spending ALOT on recruiting now… they are getting serious about winning. They’ll be a huge thorn in Napier’s side on the recruiting front. Cristobal is right up there with Kirby in recruiting

I am ok with 10 win seasons. The thing about 10 win seasons is that every few years we will break one off in UGA and UF and go to Atlanta. Good things happen when you consistently win 10 games per season.

I think this fan base would be thrilled with 10 win seasons. I know I would. It would mean we're in the hunt every year in the east at the very least.

I want championships. Will White pull the trigger when it is time to do so? Thats been my million dollar question since both hires were made.

I’d just like to beat Florida, Georgia and Bammer every once and awhile instead of losing by 30 or more every time then getting dominated in recruiting… White doesn’t strike me as the kind to stay with 8-5 seasons for too long. He’ll make the call whenever it’s time

I’m interested in seeing how Chadwell does at Coastal this season… he’s bringing in really good classes compared to the conference he’s in right up there at the top. he started to take the conference over from Napier beating him in 2020 with a much less roster. Another 10+ win season I could see him up on alot of coaching boards next offseason. His recruiting is really good as well as scheme

Ill settle for competitive, fun-to-watch football product. Love the HBC, genuine, confident guy who doesnt have to peddle smoke and mirrors. Let's just win some games, keep recruiting.

I want it to be fun to be a Vol fan again. Last year was fun. Let’s hope we can keep on climbing and take another step.

I hope Billy Napier falls flat on his face. I'm tired of hearing him hyped up as the next great coach.

He was one I had my eye on when Pruitt was close to being canned/got canned. I think he'll do well. Not sure he's quite worthy of the hype yet though? Not sure he's accomplished anything Heupel didn't.
