Notebook: Napier pleased with first practice, Jones committed to UF, Richardson not limited

Billy Napier has been a busy man since he took over as UF’s head coach in early December. He assembled a large staff filled with people with NFL and major college experience, scrambled to fill out the roster via the two signing periods and the transfer portal, and improved the quality of life for the athletes.

After all of that, Napier’s Gators finally took the practice field for the first time on Tuesday afternoon. As could be expected for a team adjusting to new ways of doing things, the Gators weren’t anywhere near as crisp as they’ll need to be for this program to win the championships that Napier came here to win.
