    Other than cosmetics, is there any reason not to fire Manny after this season?

    He was only the real OL coach in 2001. And that was with Butch Davis recruits. Kehoe largely cost Miami the 2002 national championship. Watch a replay of the 2003 Fiesta Bowl and see how bad the Miami oline did. Kehoe was a terrible oline coach, although unbelievably he's proven to be better...

    Official coRch ChiRp Kelly vs Stanford thread

    Game starts at 9:00. Stanford is bad, but they're probably going to beat coRch ChiRp, especially at home. CoRch ChiRp is 1-5 this year, and 4-14 overall at UCLA. He'd be 0-6 if he hadn't overcome a 32 point deficit against a certain overrated coach who this board loves.

    Other than cosmetics, is there any reason not to fire Manny after this season?

    Ed Orgeron went 3-21 in the SEC at Mississippi. No, that's not a misprint- 3-21. An average of 1-7 in the SEC each year. Orgeron was one of only 2 FBS coaches who was willing to hire Art Kehoe as OL coach- the other being Al Golden. (And Golden did it because of player pressure, and because he...

    I mean the way Miami would appear to the outside world. Quit being stupid on purpose.

    Other than cosmetics, is there any reason not to fire Manny after this season?

    Nope. I’d still be on this site. If they hire another coRch to hire Manny (which they probably will given their track record), I’ll be the first person to call for their firing.

    Other than cosmetics, is there any reason not to fire Manny after this season?

    People are talking about firing Blake James and firing seemingly every assistant coach. So we should fire James for hiring Manny, and we should fire the assistants who Manny’s hired. The one unmentionable is firing Manny Diaz himself. Why is this? Is it just because of the bad PR that would...

    Studying Georgia tech

    GT’s offense is possibly the worst in the Power 5. You seem to be making excuses ahead of time for in case GT accomplishes anything against Manny’s D.

    Given the halfway point what realistic changes would you like at the end of the season?

    Really, yes. The only problem is that people think firing a head coach after 1 year is bad cosmetics.

    Manny Diaz created a Top 3 defense within 3 years of arrival...

    I still am amazed that people don’t realize Butch was a great recruiter but mediocre coach. That’s why it took him until year 6 to really have that successful of a season. He wasn’t going to win big until he had all world talent.

    Manny Diaz created a Top 3 defense within 3 years of arrival...

    I am amazed that there are still borderline Al Golden defenders on CIS. Seriously, he was the worst coach since Carl Selmer. I honestly think Manny will probably outdo Golden in terms of awfulness, although that remains somewhat to be seen for sure.

    Those who want Manny fired. Poll question.

    Nothing would change my mind. I’d still want Manny fired as coach if he won 5 straight national championships.

    Back in the day, Jimmy Johnson bullied Janice Joplin

    Janis Joplin has been dead for almost 50 years. Some biographer is making these claims, probably just because she figures it’ll sell books. Johnson could probably sue the author if he seriously cared.

    Mario Cristobal

    Saban never fired or even demoted Mario. There were some rumors at one point that Saban was going to demote Mario to TE coach, but they proved to be complete BS. With that being said, it was only rumored that Saban was going to demote Mario because Alabama fans wished that would happen. They...

    I even found the Virginia win to be a crappy game to be honest. This is the first season I can recall where I thought the team played badly in all 5 opening games vs FBS opponents. Even Shannon and Golden would have at least 1 early to mid season game that was decent or even good.

    We had a good total D last year because we were always defending short fields.

    How did Manny Diaz get hired?

    Actually Richt’s late departure was probably a good thing with the new recruiting format. If he had announced his departure at the end of the regular season, it would have been about 3 weeks before the real signing day, and James would pretty much have to rush to find a replacement. Since Richt...

    How did Manny Diaz get hired?

    He got fired as a DC at Texas. He was supposedly Temple’s 4th choice for the job. Richt seemingly didn’t take any kind of buyout. (If there was a negotiated buyout, then nothing about it’s been leaked.) Richt had made the job more attractive with the IPF, higher assistant salaries and decent...

    2019 Va Tech vs Rhode Island

    Holy cow. And it’s pretty hard for a new coach to turn around a recruiting class with that stupid new Early Signing Day in mid-late December.
