Which comes first, Miami beats FSU in men's basketball or a new head coach at Miami?

You just explain the meaning of insanity. Repeating the same thing expecting a different result. You are correct, you are not going to get an Angel Rodriguez and Sheldon Mac every year. It has only happened at Miami once. Wilson, Gilmore, Muhammad were epic failures if you want to go by the...

To keep the stress of himself, Coach L simply needs to get 13 scholarship players on the roster. Coach L is a good coach when he has talent, unfortunately Jim Larannaga, the roster management coordinator is failing Coach L by not using all of the scholarships and giving Coach L what he needs...

My one question has always been, why didn't Coach L follow that formula of success? Also, how many of those kids were Frank Haith's recruits?

Absolutely, only because they have not been addressed. I was the person who said Nysier Brooks sitting out this season is a wasted scholarship. It still does not make sense to sit out one season to play one season. I was the guy who wanted two more grad transfers this season in addition to...

FYI. I have always agreed with you about the roster management issues at Miami. I am fascinated how the FBI investigation has now cost Miami 2 recruiting class. Some of theses excuses are not even logical.

Yeah but that is only scratching the surface. We are some of the few fans who dig deep to discuss the real issue. Using 11 of 13 scholarships is not playing with a full roster. Especially when you have 11 players then decide to redshirt a player or fail to apply for a transfer waiver for a...

Sure when you don't want to address the real problem. Roster management is the root cause of this failure.

Huger or Konkol are very different when compared to Manny Diaz. Both are currently 15-5 at Bowling Green and Louisiana Tech. Both are starting to establish themselves as good head coaches. Manny Diaz had no previous head coaching experience. Don't sleep on either becoming the next head...

It is hard to practice with 6 or 7 players. You definitely cannot scrimmage.

If Coach L start Earl Timberlake and plays 10 guys next season along with signing two high school seniors for next season then next season will be a success. If Coach L plays his 5 seniors 30 plus minutes a game next season then next season could be his last at Miami. Coach L will need to win...

Coach L never had an excuse for failure. Whenever any coach does not fill his team with incoming freshman, grad transfers are always the option to give yourself a competitive team. Coach L has failed for 7 years in a row to use all 13 of his scholarships for basketball. Truthfully, Coach L has...

Unless Blake James is fired as the AD in the next two months, the football and basketball head coaching jobs will not change. However, there will be huge pressure on both of them to win and win big next season. The football coach will need to go 10-2 and play in the ACC Championship game along...

I wrote my thoughts on that in the FSU-6 thread. It should be on the first page. Read it if you like.

In fairness, Fisher and Caputo have recruited well but Coach L is not closing the deal to get a commitment. The coaching staff needs to recruit until all 13 scholarships have been used.

There are two scholarships available and they need to be used on two bigs for the 2021-22 season. Miami will have 5 seniors on the 2020-21 roster which includes Nysier, Rodney and Sam. That leaves Deng Gak as the only big on the roster for the 2021-22 season. The issue will be Coach L is going...

I have been harder on Coach L than anyone else but I am not at the point of supporting a movement to fire Coach L. There is a simple fix to this situation. Coach L simply needs to prepare the team, play all 8 guys (9 when Stone is cleared) and win 11 plus conference games this season and make...
