No matter how many games or championships that Billy Napier wins at Florida, one iconic phrase will always be a part of his enduring legacy: “Scared money don’t make money.”
Napier uttered those words during a halftime interview last season while explaining his decision to forego a field goal on the final play of the first half and go for the end zone, a decision that paid off when his Louisiana team scored a touchdown on the play.
Since he accepted the Florida job in December, that phrase has become something of a battle cry for Gators fans and a phrase that has been slapped on merchandise to make some money.
