Billy Napier scoured on social media as Florida struggles mightily at Kentucky
Published:
Billy Napier had one of his worst first half performances Saturday since taking the Florida job last season.
Napier and the Gators were down by multiple scores just before halftime in Lexington. Unless Napier turns things around in the second half, it will be three consecutive wins for Mark Stoops over the Gators.
Florida entered into Saturday’s game with a 3-1 record as the No. 22 ranked team in the nation. The Gators didn’t live up to their ranking in the first half to say the least.
Social media reacted accordingly to Florida’s horrible first half. Many fans called for Napier to be fired if he loses. At one point in the first half, Florida had under 100 total yards of offense.
There was a wide array of reactions on social media. One fan even predicted that Napier would be back in the Sun Belt as early as 2025 after Butch Jones leaves Arkansas State.
Here are some of the better reactions:

The convo isn’t about Lane. It’s about how fast we can humanly fire Scott Stricklin and Billy Napier then hire qualified replacements.
It cannot happen fast enough.

Ain’t no way Billy Napier is making it past this season. Not unless they somehow rebound and win at least 8 games… ain’t no way

Literally Everyone: Hey Billy, maybe you should hire an actual offensive playcaller and special teams coordinator for the #Gators?

Billy Napier’s voluminous binders of plans apparently doesn’t include anything on how to get a team ready to play on the road
