Chadwell (from
Coastal) will be gone as well…VT most likely

Now will Billy coach the championship? I would guess not.

I feel like that would be a net negative situation for both programs.

I would expect Napier will coach the Sun Belt Championship Game, and I expect he and his players will be fired up to win his last game at Cajun Field.
We have to match their intensity next Saturday.

Currently checking with Delhomme to see if he’s coaching the Ragin Cajuns in next week’s Sun Belt title game against Appalachian.

If they announce Napier before the game, he will be in Florida by Saturday. That’s the precedent, at least.

It is, but Napier is different. Can't see him abandoning his team.

And how is that bad for App?

Don't know about the rest of you all but it seems like Clark is here to stay as long as they let him. He is App thru and thru. 2 games left but looking to next year it will be interesting with all the talented seniors leaving. Others replacing coaching staff will only make what may be a rebuilding year a little better. Go App!

I'm having a really hard time seeing Chadwell at VT - I just feel they could do so much better

What I read suggested he would coach the championship game but not any bowl.

I could really be wrong on that but I agree, he doesn't seem like the kind of coach they would pursue.

I agree. It's certainly nice not to have to worry about, at least this year. I think he'll have some tough decisions to make if he continues to be successful. I hope he continues to be successful.

Maybe SC and staff gets a reworked contract/recruiting budget. I would like to see stability and really the only way for that is $$$. I think this helps the transfer portal for and against us as well.

Per ESPN "Napier plans to coach the Ragin' Cajuns in the Sun Belt championship game against Appalachian State on Saturday (3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN)."
