New Florida coach Billy Napier confirms final game with Louisiana

New Florida head coach Billy Napier confirmed Friday that Saturday’s Sun Belt Championship Game will be his last with the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns. Napier, who was recently by UF, had initially left the door open on coaching Louisiana’s bowl game. The Ragin’ Cajuns are 11-1 on the season.

@coach_bnapier: “This will be my final game at Louisiana. There’s an opportunity for some of our staff (from a leadership standpoint). This place has done a lot for me and my family” #GeauxCajuns
