Midseason Hot-Seat Lists Put Florida’s Billy Napier at No. 1

National assessments elevate Napier, reflecting accelerated coaching churn.

Overview

  • USA TODAY’s updated rankings place Napier and Auburn’s Hugh Freeze at the top entering Week 6.
  • ClutchPoints’ midseason list names Napier, Luke Fickell, Joe Moorehead, David Braun, and Scott Satterfield as most at risk.
  • Florida’s offense sputtered against Miami with 141 total yards, 0-for-13 on third down, and 61 passing yards.
  • Four Power Four head coaches were fired in September, with five power-conference jobs now open including Stanford’s spring move.
  • Fan unrest grows at Wisconsin, where Fickell is 15-15 after a 2-2 start and a home crowd “fire Fickell” chant.
