Bazooka was the gum and it was terrible. Bazooka Joe was a character on a comic strip that was in the gum package.

Worst gum ever , it was like rubber

I get what people are saying about an OC not fixing anything and Richt is the problem and that is true. But Richt being the OC and his son being the QB coach is the deeper problem. If he actually uses an OC hire to get better and gives the dude authority over the offense... it’ll solve a lot of our problems. Doesn’t hide the amateur hour defensive staff or the lack of depth at a few positions... but a legit OC would help the ST, help the defense or at least put both of them in better situations.

Sure Richt is still Richt but a good offense would change a lot. It’s gonna take more than just hiring an OC.. Jon is gonna need to be fired or demoted to an analyst and Searels needs to go.

Just saying.. it could work out like Brian Kelly if we do it right

Wholesale Brian Kelly type changes are a must

Nothing changes until Mork gets canned.

Hey ****face. Why are you hiding?

I don't want to make the same mistake we made before.

Miami fans in 2005 - "Anybody is better than Larry Coker. Literally anybody else can win a 'ship here. Miami made Howard, Jimmy, Dennis, and Butch, not the other way around." UM eats a huge buyout and hires Randy Shannon on the cheap.

Miami Fans in 2011 - "Anybody is better than Randy Shannon. We just need a coach with head-coaching experience." UM hires Al Golden.

Miami Fans in 2015 - "Anybody is better than Al Golden. We just need a coach who has won at a major D1 school." UM hires Mark Richt

Miami Fans in 2018 - "Anybody is better than Mark Richt. We just need an innovator who isn't stubborn." ...........


If we fire Richt tomorrow, then we're right back to where we were in 2005.... eating a huge buyout, and probably looking to hire Manny Diaz, the modern Randy Shannon.

If we're serious about hiring a new coach, it needs to be somebody who ticks multiple boxes, not just someone who seems to fit whatever the current mood is. Be proactive, not reactionary. Don't solve yesterday's problems, solve tomorrow's problems.

Excellent post

Outstanding, outstanding post.

All the top tier candidates are taken, so we are stuck with second tier/fired sloppy seconds. But here's the scariest part of all this: whoever we bring in is going to want security to come here. That means Flake extending Richt for like another 5 years. So in order to secure some second-rate OC who may win us 1 or 2 more games, we have to chain ourselves to Richt even longer. Meditate on that!
