Florida is 0-2 since Josh Pate compared them to 2019 LSU.

Fuck Pate. Same dude who hyped up Napier for years and compared him to Saban in many ways

Which was hilarious because anyone who followed him at his Louisiana days knew he was a serious underpreformer.

People who didn't know Cajun ball acted like he was some play calling prophet.

Stopped watching him 3 years ago and never went back.

Dude couldn’t even get behind his own poll. “Don’t come after me, blame the algorithm”. Then would be 90% fluff.

Dude knows how to talk slow and appeal to the masses tho, elite at being generic enough for a wider audience appeal.

I had a 7 hour drive last weekend and wasn't sure what to listen to so I gave his podcast a go and it was genuinely insane how many ads there were. I rotate through a hand full of podcasts while working so I get that ads are inevitable but it was so constant and the ad breaks were SO LONG. I'm pretty sure I to skip more than 8 minutes before they were actually talking football. I gave up after a couple of segments before I just flipped backed to music. I'm rambling but he just sucks. I don't get his popularity.

He calls them power rankings, but in any other sport power rankings are the same as polls.

Just call it what it is, betting odds.

Are they? I've always known power ratings and rankings to be distinct

u/n1nja_nacho South Carolina Gamecocks 7d ago

Power ratings in the pros might as well be rankings.

I don't dislike Pate, but I wish he just called the JP Poll "betting odds."

He keeps the name confusing to drive engagement and it works like a charm.

u/Icy_Meat9199 Texas Tech Red Raiders 7d ago

The poll he continues to post in order to farm engagement and influence opinion when he knows it's absolute dogshit

u/daftdude05 Georgia Bulldogs • Pittsburgh Panthers 7d ago

u/Icy_Meat9199 Texas Tech Red Raiders 7d ago

Uncle Lou calls him "juice poot" for a reason.

I was fully supportive of anyone who would hype up and continue to have Floridia employ Napier.

u/DangerIsMyUsername Tennessee Volunteers • Sickos 6d ago

So he's on Florida's payroll? No sane person would say this 😅

Napier never lost to SCAR though
