College Coaching Carousel II

With the firing of Billy Napier at Florida the carousel not only kept going it spun faster.

The University of Florida fired head football coach Billy Napier despite owing a $21 million buyout. Reportedly half of that money is due within 30 days and there's no off-set provision to claw back any of the buyout if he takes another coaching job. Napier went 22-23 in his time as coach. This was not an unexpected move and ends on the longest running "will they or won't they" situations in college football.

The firing also reminded people it's that time of year again and there's other coaches on the hot seat and still others who will get paid so they don't get wandering eyes.
