Florida players and recruits shared their excitement upon hearing the news that Florida hired Louisiana-Lafayette coach Billy Napier to be the next head coach and replace Dan Mullen. They used gator emojis and offered moving help for the new coach.
Some of them like Napier’s apparent new catch phrase, “scared money don’t make money,” which he said as the Ragin’ Cajun’s coach.
Here’s a sampling of the reaction:
