Absolutely true but that just proves Miami has more often than not hired the wrong guy. They really need someone who can sell the city, culture and Miami lifestyle why at Miami getting an education and playing basketball. Probably a young, energetic guy who is willing to grind the long hours...

Hiring Rick Pitino would raise eyebrows for many different reasons. I am not saying I would or would not do it. You are correct, he has a proven track record of winning at every college stop. He would definitely fit the criteria of the "right guy for the job" but there will always be a cloud...

I do think the right coach could win at Miami. I would not go the Pitino route but a Billy Donovan definitely could. A coach who would recruit all kids, in-state, out of state, jucos and transfers, international players using all 13 scholarships. Remember, no one thought Miami could win in...

You make a good point and that is why fans don't attend games. The coaches and athletic department have not given general fans a reason to support the team. Unacceptable for a team in a Power 5 conference in a city like Miami. Unacceptable.

Maxed. The biggest issue was the failure to fill the two available scholarships. Everyone knew Gak and Stone tore their ACLs last season and they would not be ready to start this season. Those are not new injuries. Again, Brooks sitting out is hurting the program. That is why I said when...

Rotation? If we look at the roster from a health perspective, Miami has 8 healthy players just like last season. Scary but true. Nysier Brooks is sitting out due to the fact that no one applied for a waiver, not the "sit-out transfer rules" story being told by Coach L. Coach L has all of his...

If we are being honest, Miami has had two good seasons in the 9 years Coach L has been here. 2013 and 2016. It looks like he is doing a great job because of the failures of the coaches before him. Coach L is benefiting from very low to minimal expectations. Honestly, Miami basketball should...

Yes per Coach L. I posted his most recent interview under the ACC Media Day thread. Stone is out until January.

FYI.....The NCAA is still giving out waivers to those who apply. Coach L needs to follow in the steps of Coach Izzo and Coach Miller and at least tell us that Nysier Brooks has applied for the waiver. Sitting out for academics is unlikely since he has been accepted and enrolled at Miami...

We interrupt this thread to bring you this important announcement: In fairness, the use and allotment of scholarships along with player rotation and starting lineups all fall under the umbrella of roster management. Now back to our regularly schedule thread, already in progress.
