Before talking about hot seats one had to look really hard at buyouts.
Norvells is 65 mil
Napiers is just under 28
That 28 might look like a lot less but it seems like Floridas coffers are a bit tighter than a lot might think.
Ignoring buyouts for sure Norvell should already be toast and the next loss should be Napiers last. I feel like both teams will wait till after the season. If FSU waits till after DEC 31 they save about 8 mil on buyout money. The Smart move is to let him at the very least finish this year out. Pretty much anyone they want is still employed.. maybe the game on November 30 becomes the keep your job bowl? Whoever wins gets to keep their job. (#loudervol beat me to it lol)
All jokes aside looks like both coaches are doomed as their schedules are no Joke. FSU plays all decent teams except for one the rest of the season. Florida has easily the hardest schedule in the nation going forward. They play 5 ranked (top13) SEC teams and it could be 6 ranked if Kentucky beats Vandy.
Our boosters have that $28M raised already.
Problem is it’s too early to fire Napier, and no one on our wish list is leaving their current situation before November best case.
