7-2 this year. Lost by 10 to us and 10 to App State.
Coached under Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney.
Louisiana is also a key recruiting area for us to supplement MS recruiting.
40 years old. Only makes about a million per year/maybe less so financials are not an issue.
I do not, but I also didn't have an issue with JoMo until I got to know his personality.
Gotta interview him to identify the personality type. Good football coaches keep players uncomfortable & on edge
Major problem? No. But Dabo fired him after a year, so I don’t count a Dabo bump there.
I've watched a few interviews with him, I like his personality. Much better speaker than Pruitt and Clark.Quote:

Keeping players on edge works for some, fails miserably for others. It's not that important at all. The great ones, however they motivate, pay attention to detail and are able to instill that attention to detail in their players.Quote:

He was OC during the interim part of Dabo taking over. I don’t count that because Dabo was the primary play caller. He had one season under Dabo as OC and was fired because the offense wasn’t good.
But, Saban said Napier was going to be a great HC one day and ASU tried to keep him as OC when they changed coaches.
True, it's also fair to point out that he was the youngest OC in the country at only 29 years old and he probably learned a lot from the experience. It's also fair to say he coached a year and half under Dabo b/c that is the truth.Quote:
