Former Florida tight end Keon Zipperer said Billy Napier wasted the Gators’ talent after Jon Sumrall’s team beat No. 4 Ole Miss 52-28. Florida is 4-0 and No. 8 in the AP poll, a top-10 ranking Napier never reached in four seasons.
Napier’s four Florida seasons ended with a 22-23 record and no winning season, despite the Gators regularly bringing in top-10 to top-15 recruiting classes. In his final season, Florida ranked 111th nationally in scoring offense.
Florida has scored at least 40 points in each of its first four games, the first time the Gators have done so since 2001. Against Ole Miss, Florida rushed for more than 300 yards; Jadan Baugh had 142 yards and three touchdowns.
