Banner

[niner]

Well look at that, 15 pages of effectiveness.

 

[hoops156]

whats the difference between joe rose or zaslow and joy making fun of goldens post game presser and criticizing the school and these banners that criticize golden? theyre both public displays of criticism and both embarrass the head coach. is it because one is from the fans and the other is from a radio host?

 

[INCaneFan]

For the banners to be ineffective, I see 14 pages here alone, it's on talk radio, and it's clearly ****ing off the Administration.

You see, the squeaky wheel is the one that gets the grease.

How do you know it's ****ing off the administration? Where's the evidence that suggests as much for you to make that claim?

Hurricanes athletic director Blake James didn’t have much to say when he was asked by the Miami Herald about the “Fire Al Golden” banner that flew over the stadium about two hours before kickoff Saturday afternoon.

In fact, he only had two words. “Come on,” James said before turning and walking away.

?Fire Golden? banner not a distraction for Miami Hurricanes | Miami Herald
It's not much in the way of proof, but it seems like Blake was annoyed by it if it cause him to walk away immediately.

When asked a stupid question, lots of people walk away from an interview. That's what I take from Blake's comment.

The entire article focused on how it didn't affect anything. Duke's comment was pretty funny though.

You're right. The banners aren't funny.

Sad that idiots must have something pointed out to them before they recognize a problem. And this administration is full of idiots.

Three losers in a row.

Even if you flipped a coin to select a coach, statistically, you'd get a good one half the time.

To go three bad ones in a row is an astronomical statistical anomaly.

Not much, but the banners as we're undefeated (as we should be) and coming out with the win, sorry, it just looks foolish.

Watch what happens this season. The schedule looks more promising every weekend and this dumbass coach will win 9 games and get another year. The banners will then have done as much as they did last year while Golden keeps getting his stolen money.

Do you need proof that the sun will rise tomorrow too?

I'm sure the administration loves the public humiliation the banners are bringing them. But until Frenk comes out and says it publicly it's not true.

Humiliation, please. If they were humiliated by any of this, our record, fan draw, banners, radio talk, message boards, and our God damned win / loss record, etc....why didn't they fire the guy last year? This year is shaping up to be far better on paper, so what gives?

I get it, some want to feel they matter. You'd do far more cutting a check specifically for the hiring of a new coach or the buyout of Golden, but instead you want some attention all the while puffing those chests out like you did something that matters. Since you can't cut a check big enough, you'll drop a few bucks here and there on banners, claiming some pseudo victory.

The purpose of the banners is to keep reminding dummies like you that 9 wins fixes nothing. Keep the pressure on. Silence is ratification.

LOL at sending $1000.00 toward paying a buyout that they should pay because it was their mistake. I'm sure that $1000.00 quietly sent would go straight to the nonexistent buyout fund and would make all the difference in the world.

Are you rummies really this clueless and vapid?

Fly Banner, Fly!

Fans are spending $$$ on banner instead of tickets, shirts, and donations. That is not a foolish. They are not being flown because Al lost one game. He has proven to be a loser and getting worse. It is important for the BOT to know that everyone, everywhere sees that they are horrid. The only thing I would change is to alternate "Fired Blake James" or "UM - 15 years of worst BOT ever" then go Al again. Last game or two go after the new president to give him a feel for next year if Al stays.

 

[JHallCanes]

I donate to banners because I think it's funny. It's foolish and maybe not the best way to vent, but oh ****** well. The BoT has proven they don't care, so I really don't care either. I can't be entertained by the football team anymore so I will find a way to be entertained on a Saturday. If you disagree with banners, I don't think you're "wrong" or I'm "right" with my decisions, it's just....it's ****** America and **** what this ******* has done to our team all the while smiling and feeding us **** like we are all idiots.

Just a little piece of advice for Al Golden: If you hear a plane motoring over the stadium, don't look up.

Miami has never exactly specialized in subtlety. So it seemed appropriate that when Al Golden looked at the sky before Miami’s game at Florida Atlantic, he saw an airplane tugging a banner.

“Make Miami Great Again — Butch Davis 2016”

Unfortunately for Golden, the moneyman behind the banner wasn’t thinking of presidential candidates.

If you thought Bo Pelini absorbed too much criticism in Lincoln the past few years, check out Golden’s life these days. During the first half at FAU, Clinton Portis unleashed these tweets:

"I been dodging this reality all year! #FAU GIVING the almighty #U trouble! Our defensive play calling is horrible!! We have become SOFT!"

"WE COMPETING W FIU, FAU ,MIAMI DADE, JOHNSON & WELLS, BCC, FAMU, UCF, USF! FSU & UF out our league as this point! Football gods please help"

Miami rallied after halftime, beating Howard Schnellenberger’s Owls by 24 points. But “the doubters are certainly waiting to pounce,” Miami booster Sandy Nusbaum told me Tuesday.

Golden, by all accounts, is a nice man who runs a tight ship. His players go to class. They stay out of trouble. They do not, however, win enough games.

When the Canes dropped the final four of 2014 to finish 6-7, Miami fans split into two camps: those who want Golden to win in 2015; and those who want him to lose to guarantee a new coach.

According to long-time UM fan Harry Rothwell, scrutiny is off the charts these days.

“Everybody lives in the past. Everybody wants to relive the great moments and they think that college football has been locked in this box and that nothing has changed in the last 10-20 years. You and I know that there’s more parity than ever. Kids want to play right away; they don’t care if they’re playing at Jacksonville State or Nebraska or Miami."

When it comes to understanding the new era of college football, Rothwell said, “Miami fans are as bad as any fans in this country.”

(Boy, if that doesn’t sound like a rant from a Nebraska fan).

Nusbaum put it like this: “It’s just been a lot of years since 2001 and 2002.”

After the failed Randy Shannon era, Miami fans thought Golden, who rebuilt Temple, was the right guy. But there’s a big difference between Temple and Miami, where every coach in the country is trying to poach prospects from your backyard.

Golden is in year five. Probation is no longer an excuse. Neither are facilities, which are much better than in the glory years. Miami isn’t playing on campus, but renovated Sun Life Stadium will host Super Bowls again. If you win there, Nusbaum said, you’ll get 60,000. If you don’t, you’ll get 25,000 — “There’s a lot of stuff to do down here.”

Right now, it’s closer to 25,000. Old-time boosters are disinterested. They’re not going to games or contributing money. Meanwhile, the air waves are full of critics.

Rothwell, the general manager of an apparel store, describes the environment as “self-defeating.” If Golden has a bad year, Miami will make a move. But “moaning and groaning” as an undefeated team sucks the fun out of the game.

Into this storm, coincidentally, walks Nebraska. The Canes have won five national championships. Three times they beat NU in the bowl game. “You guys put us on the mountain,” Nusbaum said. Now a loss to the Huskers would likely precipitate Golden’s demise.

“Playing Nebraska this week will be a barometer to see if this team is going in the right direction or if there needs to be a change,” Rothwell said.

Over the past 13 years, think of how many times Nebraska's soap operas made it vulnerable on Saturdays. Now it looks like the Huskers could take advantage of Miami's distractions.

It was intentional. Just as I predicted when Shalala became president.
