"We’re going to win so much, you’re going to be so sick and tired of winning, you’re going to come to me and go ‘Please, please, we can’t win anymore.’"

Savages coach savages.

If Leach gets us two more championships and then leaves with a slew of major violations, I'd still consider his tenure a success. I'm still ****ed about the Shapiro scandal- if we were going to do all that cheating, couldn't we at least have won some championships?

The whole time? You mean you remember Erickson from age 1 to 4? Get real. No true Canes fan who knows the history of Miami would be totally ignorant to the fact that Erickson was an incredibly unpopular hire.

Handful. LOL. Yeah, I'm sure Jankovich was rattled by just a handful of letters. Hiring Erickson was so popular they were prepping the parade routes for Sam. You are really flailing here.

Yes. He would have to run something similar at WSU because Miami's offensive line can't run block, but likely incorporating more TEs. I also posted the link about his desire to use TEs (which he doesn't have at WSU). He can't magically turn the Miami OL into Oklahoma's OL. However, he can...

There was no outcry against Dennis Erickson? I posted the link in an earlier post, but I'll post it again in case you missed it. http://articles.latimes.com/1991-11-13/sports/sp-1323_1_dennis-erickson "When his name came out, there was a tremendous amount of skepticism," said Sam...

Agreed. Leach doesn't use tight ends in his Air Raid right now. Is it because he is married to a particular version of the Air Raid and refuses to adapt? No. http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/20170680/the-evolution-tight-end-college-football It's because he hasn't found many...

You never answered the question- how many championships did Dennis Erickson and Jimmy Johnson have when they were hired? Were either of them 10 game winners when they were hired? I'm guessing you were born after 1990 so you have zero knowledge of the real history of the Miami Hurricanes...

If you need a reminder for why we need a coach like Leach or Lane Kiffin to light a fire under this program, go read "Cane Mutiny" again (or read it for the first time). "[N]obody paid any mind when Howard Schnellenberger, who looked like a cross between General Patton and Colonel Sanders...

Bruh, I'm not the one acting like I got cucked by Mike Leach and ignoring logic due to an irrational hatred of the man. Everything you are saying about Leach is the same stuff they were saying about Erickson. Now if you want to say that Erickson was obviously a different caliber coach than...

So I see your logic circuits just short circuited. Riley learned from Leach, but only Lincoln Riley is capable of adapting his system to the personnel available. Lol ok. Hey why don't you go edit the Wikipedia entry under Air Raid and remove Riley's name from the list of Air Raid coaches...

Are you really claiming Lincoln Riley isn't a Mike Leach disciple? Riley ran about as pure an Air Raid as you could get at East Carolina. At Oklahoma he had a great OL and RB so he adapted the Air Raid to his personnel. There was nothing in his previous coaching history to suggest he would...

Ah so you believe that Air Raid offense is incapable of being adapted if the team has a good RB and OL? Maybe you should tell that to Lincoln Riley. Also you didn't answer the question. What accomplishments did Erickson have that justified hiring him after JJ?

Again, at the time Erickson was hired, people thought you could not win championships with a single back "pass heavy" offense. Some very smart football people at Miami realized that Erickson's system would take max advantage of the S Fl athletes and the result was two championships. And...

And yet lots of blowhards said Erickson's pass heavy offense could not win championships. How many teams in the mix for the championship played without a fullback?

Bruh are you too young to remember the Canes in the late 1980s and early 90s? People were making the exact same argument against Dennis Erickson that you are against Leach. The idea of a pass first, one- back spread offense was also considered a joke. "Show me a coach who has won without a...

The "selfie" generation is all about highlight reels, popularity, and attention. Playing in a high flying offense will get them noticed. The other thing Leach can sell is they wont be robots at Miami. How many players at Bama are self promoting and tweeting every day? To put it in 18th...

If Shalala hated him, then that means he was exactly what we needed. Leach makes under 3 million per year now. I think he would accept that same salary to coach at the school he's asked to coach for twice (after both Coker and Shannon got fired). He's not coaching because he loves teaching...

A while back I said no way, Leach is too weird and wouldn't land recruits. Richt's "advantage" was that he is a better recruiter, but now is losing recruits because they can see the state of the program. Since there is no recruiting advantage, i'd rather have the coach who knows how to put...
