The SEC Coaches Under the Most Pressure in 2023

Mike Farrell on why Jimbo Fisher, Billy Napier, and Eli Drinkwitz are on the hottest seats in the SEC

Let’s take a look at three coaches who will be under serious scrutiny this season in the SEC and why.


1. Jimbo Fisher, Texas A&M

— This is obvious as the 5-7 season last year was an embarrassment, and his contract is way too big to expect seasons like that. If he has another season anything like it, he’s gone, and I don’t care how much it costs.

2. Billy Napier, Florida

— He’s recruiting well, but a rough season one with a loss to Vanderbilt despite having a first-round QB is an issue. With a brutal schedule looming in 2024, he needs a big bridge year next season.

3. Eli Drinkwitz, Missouri

— 17-19 isn’t horrible in the SEC, but Barry Odom did better, and they ran him out of town. He needs a winning season this year, and eight wins could be the number.
