Blake James comment on the “national coaching search” Lol

But that is a good AD hire
What makes him a good hire in your question? Serious question. Doing a quick search on Bohn, he's been AD at 4 schools, some G5 and P5 (Colorado). As AD of Colorado, all 3 coaches he hired were eventually fired. He also hired Fickell at Cincinnati, which so far looks to be a solid hire. Funny thing is the only time USC ever had an AD w/o ties to the school, he also came from Cincinatti (kinda like us always going after Temple coaches lol). USC takes their non-revenue sports much more seriously so maybe that was a consideration.

Man, this bit keeps making me laugh. No disrespect to Nick doing his thing, I think the staff is amateur at best & of course a lazy hire... but that troll job... snagging his banner, underrated. So funny.
Like I’ve said dude, I’m glad they did because oh boy did it backfire in there faces with the epic corching job Diaz did in losing to Gtech the worst team I’m the ACC. Oh wait I mean now the second worst team since we replaced them at number one. Lol and all they accomplished in that troll job was increasing support for the real banner and getting west end zone crew involved for even more banners. So it was honestly a blessing disguise. I hope who ever did it is at the Louisville game se he can watch the original banner fly around that stadium in all its glory! Oh and all the other banners flying! Lol
 
It just shows how ignorant and ineffective James is, because Diaz would have taken this job regardless of whether it was offered in 6 minutes, 6 days, or 6 weeks. You don't skip due diligence entirely for any coach, let alone a first time head coach. He should have learned his lesson from Mark Richt who was at least established.

To be honest with you. I did zero research when making that statement. I just looked at a school that’s been a solid G5 school for a while now. Fickell was a good hire but they are also in a state where Ohio state is the top Dog but they can still get good talent. Time will tell

No worries man...just was wondering if you knew something about him. I just did a quick search when I saw the post about them hiring an AD and read about 2 paragraphs only about the guy lol
 
James declined to say whether Oregon’s Mario Cristobal would be considered if the UM job is open again. And James reiterated to Ferman what he had told us previously - that were would have been no way to conduct a national coaching search AND hire Diaz, because a decision needed to be made quickly on Diaz because he had already committed to coach Temple. So Diaz was hired the same day Mark Richt resigned (Dec. 30).

This comment right here is all you need to know about the pure incompetence that is Blake James and why he and all his cronies in the athletic dept need to be the sole focus of every form of criticism us fans can throw there way! Unbelievable that this bum let a man that’s never played the game of football and never been a head coach before strong arm him into giving him the job on the spot! Smh there’s no hope as long as Flake James is in charge.

So basically, Blake/Diaz held a gun to the BOT's head saying it's now or never; and the gutless/incompetent BOT thought it was a great idea, no search necessary. Sure, the BOT is ultimately at fault, but it was Blake/Diaz that set it up. Can't fire the BOT, but Blake/Diaz need to go and the BOT can claim that they were misled, saving face.

Your back out the woods maricon? Wait till you see the banner for the Louisville game, will how supportive that that banner is to your Hecht center BFFs! Now go back to work grooming Strawleys muff! Lmao


Lmao.
 
I’m astounded by his incompetence and to not even have a search is negligent and borderline criminal. I went from ecstasy to agony in a few short hours when he hired Disazter. I remember being outraged on here and saying we need to do a Tennessee and stop this hire at all costs..
 
people who are trying to make any sense out of the Miami football clownshow should give this thread by @RivercityCane some serious consideration and just think about it.

And the UM BOT is down with it. Says all that is needed to be said about the UM program. Top/down **** show.

Exactly Klama, couldnt have said it better myself. And I would be willing to wager a big amount that the whole thing was concocted between Blake and manny right from the start! Those two were in cahoots, Nothing but buddies hiring eachother, ******* disgusting but definitely the UM way! This university and program is so infested with politics and nepotism and everything in between that they deserve every piece of negativity being thrown at them. I hope no one renews there tickets, buys merchandise or donates because I sure as **** know I won’t! And maybe then the spineless bot will do that right thing and clean house, till then get used to 5-7,6-6, 7-6 with an occasional 9-3 if we get lucky. Smh
