I will always remember being a wide eyed freshman on the Cross-Country team sitting in the locker room waiting to take my drug test and Art was so nice chatting me up about the Notre Dame game coming up. Hope he has a speedy and complete recovery.
I went to high school with a black girl who said Art was her uncle as we watched the 30 for 30 in classGreat soul, was invited to his home in coral gables a few years ago, was talking about life and football of course, gave me some great advice. Said one of the players was a pvssy lol was a funny Guy. Beautiful black wife too, great family. Gws coach, you'll get through this.
5 rings.I realize my memory fades a little as I get younger but if I remember correctly Kehoe was a part of the team in some capacity for every NC
Do you think his coaching slipped as he got older or the talent just got worse from the previous regimes?
Lol yea I'm still friends with her on snapchat, the whole family is awesome.I went to high school with a black girl who said Art was her uncle as we watched the 30 for 30 in class
I'm just glad fans didn't turn on him like they did with Randy Shannon. Some dudes live and breathe Cane football, Kehoe and Shannon are both in that camp. Kehoe's coaching and recruiting towards the end were a bit suspect, but no one spits in disgust like they do when they hear Shannon's name mentioned.
The fact Richt decided on Searles instead of Art is on Richt.....Art could coach circles around Searles...agreed.
listen, art had his serious limitations as a coach. it wasn't a coincidence that jimmy, butch, dennis, ... none of them ever took art with them when they went on to other places in college or the NFL. yes, art loved UM, but he would have joined jimmy in dallas if he ever asked. jimmy never did. even other guys on the staff who personally liked art, and know him well, such as wannstedt, trestman, richt, or pagano, never really had an interest in having him join their staffs when they became head coaches. when art was looking for job, he always had those guys to call. no one ever picked up the phone, (metaphorically speaking). even richt, who has known art since 1981, interviewed art for three hours when richt became the UM head coach, and mark still decided on stacey searles.
but forgetting all of that, art kehoe lives and breathes UM. so much of art's identity is tied up in those 5 rings and what it means to him. i have always liked him, and wish him well.

I was giving Chud the business at Casolas after a Thursday night game against sPitt. Kehoe walked in and Chud whispered something to him. Before you know it the man turns to me and says "You want to give the win back!" No need to mention, I shut the F up and sat down. Speedy recovery to the GREATEST Cane ever.....When I think of Canes, his picture jumps into my mind - only person with ALL our rings. Love the dude. Prayers are with you Art.
He is never one to mince words and a great gator hater too. That he learned from the greatest of all gator haters.I was giving Chud the business at Casolas after a Thursday night game against sPitt.
