Miami AD Blake James taking wait-and-see approach with Al Golden's future
CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Miami is a place with a proud tradition and unrelenting fan base, a mix that has turned the atmosphere around the football program so toxic, flying banners have encapsulated all that negativity for the world to see.
“Fire Al Golden” signs have flown before every Hurricanes game, home and away, making it routine now to look up to the sky. Last week, two banners showed their support for Golden, Miami's head coach, but they fought for airspace with the others.
Miami athletic director Blake James has seen them all. Each time, he comes back to one main idea.
“I’m not sure what the end goal is that they’re accomplishing,” James said in a recent interview. “Are they accomplishing the fact that I am aware or someone’s aware that they’re not happy with the results that Al has had on the field? That’s already well known.
I think what it does do is it just gives all the great fans a black eye, and I think it gives the program a black eye in a lot of ways.
