Don't look like fools getting 10th guy on the list waiting til the end.
Have someone ready. not so fast grasshopper!
While the hiring process should have
in some
prep work right about now, without securing a
REAL knowledgeable and inexperienced AD, UM Admin & BoT won't know how to hire the next coach or what to hire.
When they had secured the services of one Chuck Headhunter Nievas to find them the next coach
[clearly this is an admission that UM Admin & BoT really don't know WTF they are looking for], Butch Davis was his client that UM did not want. Yet, they disregard Butch and Nievas recommendation, so Chuck Nievas offered up Butch to UNC (which btw may happen again but to U-MD). So UM hired their own Leonard Shannon! But why? Because it was right in line with their "before-your-time, innovative, and radical thinking" of one Donna Shalala and her UM cronies in being the first institution to hire the first female coach to Coach Men's Track, the first alternative lifestyle lady Basketball coach, and of course the first black coach of a major conference team
and of a prime time traditional powerhouse Football team in the South.
Had they been
more about Football and less about making radical social change & History, they would have found out that Shannon wasn't ready to jump from Coordinator to
running a major Football operation, when pondering that Shannon had never run anything, and particularly nothing in the hiring and retention of coaches. Dude had not much but an inspirational story of strapping it up and moving up from the dregs of society. But, surely Shannon sold some that he'd re-build UM into Champions and meant well, even as it all was
way above his head.
Indeed, when you leave it to the UM peoples in charge to hire, that's the type of fvcked hiree you get. Look at the many they passed on when the fvcked and incompetent Al Golden:
UM own's ex-SEC and once undefeated-Auburn Coach Tommy Tuberville, Texas bruh Coach Kevin Sumlin who was had already been HC and proven winner (unlike Shannon), Coach Dan Mullen, Champion coach and Head Coach Marc Trestman, and even that Randy Edsall. It's interesting that Edsall promptly whipped Golden in coaching for their mutual first game showing UM he was clearly the better coach even as he couldn't beat another single Div 1 school, and Tuberville did the same this year, again, showing what happens when you leaves the hiring of coaches in the hands of UM Admin & BoT. But, UM Admin and its BoT went
with the young **** and articulate "North Easterner" Al Golden
and his 300-page
Binder of pillars & virtues.
please get the AD first.
