A former Clemson coach is part of a video that has gotten plenty of attention on social media.
Florida head coach Billy Napier is seen in the following clip, where he’s evidently out on the recruiting trail at a high school.
In the video, Napier appears directly behind a student, and with both looking at the student’s camera, the student says, “Smile if LSU dropped 50 on you.”
Napier, whose Gators lost 52-35 at LSU on Nov. 11, laughed it off as he walked away.
“Smile if LSU dropped 50 on you.”

This season was Napier’s second at Florida following his four years as Louisiana’s head coach from 2018-21. The Gators went 5-7 this season after going 6-7 in 2022.
Napier spent seven years in two different stints at Clemson (2003-04, 2006-10). During Napier’s final two seasons at Clemson, he was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. He served as the Tigers’ recruiting coordinator from 2006-08.
Napier was the 2007-08 tight ends coach at Clemson. He began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Clemson from 2003-04.
