Was never a fan of the Richt hire, but honestly felt anyone was an upgrade from Golden and Shanon. In my wildest dreams and nightmares, I never imagined I would be seeing this play out again from a coach who spent 15 years in the SEC at UGA. I have never seen UM football in such disarray.

Richt is the wrong coach for UM and no amount of time or change will fix this. UM may not be able to correct this mistake until 2020. Every coach is not a good fit for UM.

What we're seeing offensively is painful to watch. On 4th and 2, the QB threw the ball 5 yards out of bounds. 5 offensive lineman can't block 3 rushers. WRs won't fight for the rare pass that is catchable. QBs who can't hit air. I can't blame fans, former players, current players, for being bitterly disappointed, heartbroken and angry.

It’s frustrating because the fixes seem so obvious... but we know they won’t happen.

I get (that) coaches are supposed to prepare team and tailor a game plan, instill motivation and drive and discipline, assure conditioning and training and endurance so we don't have to over-rotate, effective practices, etc. And maybe in due course recruit talented guys that are "really seriously" committed to study and hard work and play and not soft or think too highly of themselves to further the potential product.

And Richt and staff get a "D-" or worse on this. But after 3 coaches and s.o.s (same ol sh*t) would you care to explain how your above statement doesn't somehow indict the (here comes the downvotes) players we have been fielding?

If you get enough NFL-quality commits with a no-nonsense approach that also can lead as well as perform spectacularly, you might overcome this some years. But Miami tends to (successfully) recruit based on "Party and Paradise while your pursue a degree and football", more than the former. And without a Dabo or a Harbaugh to lay-down-the-law effectively, we seem to get the talent potential that continues to disappoint.
