    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    Nobody thought Pruitt was a solid hire. That’s why he was like 8th on the list. Kiffin was ok in his one year and I think butch jones got Tennessee to as high as they will ever be in the sec.

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    The reason people don’t bash James anymore is because its so obvious he’s pathetic, no one disagrees. Would be nice for the board to see this and take action though. There is at least a hope or argument out there that manny could have potential. Plus an AD can only prove his worth every few...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    An assumed provision? It’s a staple in coaching contracts and has been for years if NOt decades. that’s reality genius...if you don’t think baker not getting a job was a realistic outcome in the short term, I guess you’re the only Miami fan who thinks he was a good lb coach or dc

    Time, availability of good replacement dc’s, the likelihood of us Having some decent options...it also increases the likelihood of Miami having to pay a buyout for someone

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    I guess you don’t realize that even if we did fire them, they are contractually obligated to look for a comparable job and any future salary mitigates, or even eliminates, what Miami would have to pay them....so if that was his plan as you guys say, he chose a handshake agreement with baker...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    Of course...it would be unreasonable to expect him to be a professional about it and make big boy decisions that he’s paid millions for. Can you imagine any top 10 hc wasting all this time and effort playing games with his staff instead of just doing it and moving the program forward?

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    So the 8-3 mafia is now saying manny fired baker and the last month has just been a charade? Baker left so manny is savage again?

    Why did you assume that?

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    You don’t know either then...yet you said “manny is doing everything he can” to make us better. You cNt say that if baker and patke are still here, which was my initial response to you. I think it’s safe to assume patke and baker are staying until we are told otherwise. You’re the one making...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    They didn’t coach with each other every stop of the way. d NO started coaching under golden in 2004, then they went to temple, then Miami. Baker was under Diaz at Texas, Lt and now Miami. It is very similar...D no and golden were closer friends Imo, but Diaz is bringing along baker just like...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    Officially fired? So baker might be fired but rumph isnt? Ok Not sure what you need for it to be official. And the delay in firing baker showed me he’s probably staying, and it was just reported again that he is

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    How certain? Irvin’s rarely reports anything unless he’s sure. My theory Has always been Diaz needs to be able to fire someone big next year to save his job...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    Enos was the qb coach at bama, not oc. Rumph has also had to be replaced, and baker and Patke should too.

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    He is? Baker and Patke are still here. if baker does eventually get replaced, tell me a coach who overhauled his entire staff in his first two years and was successful. its kind of like the poker saying, “if you can’t tell who the sucker is at the table, it’s you”. If manny can’t find who...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    There’s going to be a hot market for any dc worth hiring too. If we want to make a good hire, we need to be looking right now to have the best chance to upgrade. Muschamp was fired nov 15 and sc’s last game was December 5th, so we waited for over a month to get rid of rumph while t rob was...

    Remember when Manny was too stubborn?

    Why would the rumph announcement already be made but they are waiting on baker? Makes no sense unless he’s trying to let baker off easy and save face, which is Busch league bs, or he’s staying.

    Baker has been hired by or worked under manny 3 times, Texas, LT and Miami, since 2010. Manny is responsible single for about 3/4 of bakers career
