Because he was a sacrificial lamb. Louisville was under heavy investigation when he took the job and he made things right. Or better yet go back to when he was at CSU. His reputation for doing things right is not questioned by those who know both the man and the professional.

Serious question: How do us little people make it known that we cannot continue to accept the embarrassing nature of our school and program.

This post is a perfect example of why we can’t have nice things, because it’s a fanbase full of low IQ mouth breathers.

I know, it’s insane for people to ask for someone with a good resume instead of “Miami guys” WITH ABSOLUTELY NO ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

He’s so sought after and respected that nobody has hired him in four years!
 
The guards sprung me loose just in time.

Anyone supporting the hiring of an AD with zero experience, after 20 years athletic of humiliation, needs their head examined. Especially on the heels of a university press release extolling their newfound commitment to sports and push to focus on athletics, pounding their chest about their readiness to make splash hires and back up the truck for some heavy hitters.

Instead who do we get? Ex players who have no clue what they're doing. Zo, Toretta, any of these dudes would signify the absolute clown show hasn't ended in the circus is still raging on.

This monogloid idea that "soMeOne muSt GeT OuR CulTure" sounds like something said in between huffs of paint from a brown bag. What's our culture-- Losing? Getting blown out? Repeatedly making amateur hires? Not winning anything meaningful?

We should find someone who understands WINNING culture. Period. I don't care if they think Lil Havana is a rapper and can't speak a lick of Spanish, what's most important is proven success and experience, not some ties to the damned school or the city of Miami. Get someone who knows how to run a successful athletic department and hire quality coaches, and has a history of doing such.

Many on the BOT never learn and neither do our fans. We're going to continue down the path of two decades of mostly "Miami guy hires" with no regard for more important qualifications (ie EXPERIENCE) and keep stacking our losses wondering why it isn't working.

1. She does not have a ***** (allegedly).
2. She spoke to people on certain issues (Mullet) when Beta Blake refused to open his mouth, thus giving the incorrect impression that she was more responsible for certain decisions than he was.
3. Her name was included on a banner.
4. Woke woke woke woke woke (I hope I shoehorned that into the post correctly).
5. She has utterly failed to put a dagger in Beta Blake's back as Brutus did to Julius Caesar.

I am NOT in favor of retaining her, but if the new AD independently values her ongoing employment, that should be his decision to make.

Answered my question right here. Thanks.

Ya I was thinking myself that Jurich would be bringing Pitino and that immediately puts basketball too 5-10 in the country.

Not sure if hiring his kid leverages him to hiring Rick or if there’s any relationship there. We couldn’t hire Jurich so I doubt we’ll be able to pull Pitino either but maybe he can hire someone to salvage us to a competitive team in the ACC again.

Rick is gonna be hard no matter AD. Getting a seat at Pitino circle is good. The problem is if he brings Richard here it’ll be frustrating.

Understanding that I neither believe she should get the job nor is being seriously considered as a factor, could someone tell me what drives the dislike for her on here? Seems like she does miscellaneous, largely inconsequential admin things as essentially the head admin, right?

this board has a disdain for women and it's weird TBH.

Best I can tell, the majority of the hate is rooted in sexism along with a dislike for anything associated with the previous admin.
 
All this is great with Zo but WTF is going to run the rest of the athletic dept.Are we just going to let them kind of run themselves.

I love the football program as much as the next guy but I also love the Baseball,Basketball and the rest of UM sports too…Putting Zo in charge of football is great but if this means putting Nunez or Strawley in charge of the rest of athletics fck that…

- Zo or Torretta paired with more-experienced administrator is most likely scenario
- Per source, "the whole thing revolves around football. Nothing else."
- School wants to do something "meaningful"
- Most important- Manny almost assuredly gone in this scenario

It's going to be Nunez. He's a "current AD" so they'll try to sell him as the experienced hand and hope his strings are bit harder to see than they are on Pedro Griffin.

I like that he is an experienced AD, but I am more impressed with what he did at LSU. Not only was he promoted over and over, but he handled a portfolio as an AAD that most AD's never get to realize. I don't know a lot about him, but he certainly checks a lot of boxes.
