The CIS site is mostly (not all) a home for those who do nothing but complain and belittle. Reading many of the posts after the LSU game drove home the point that the haters, who claim to be UM fans, were giddy as they ravaged the football program from stem to stern.
After a UM loss, the number of posts appears to outnumber, by a wide margin, the posts after a UM win. That alone should tell you all you need to know.
It is clear that some are not in an earthly orbit when calling for the firings of Coach Richt and Coach Diaz. Our competitors have to be thrilled by our 'useful idiots' who are working overtime to destroy the program.
Employ your wildest imagination and try to visualize the catastrophic damage to the program if Coach Richt were fired. Recruits and their families would be afraid to sign on with the Canes knowing full and well the program has zero stability...and sanity! The media would have a field day shredding the program and knee-slapping laughing at us. Any coach of substance being offered the UM head coaching job after the firing of Coach Richt would think...these clowns need a net thrown over them and should be lobotomized?...the answer is not no. But, **** NO!!!
And those calling for the hiring of Butch Davis, why not Jimmie Johnson or Howard Schnellenberger? At least they won National Championships. The rich irony is, the mob (whose collective knowledge of the program could be fit on the head of a sewing needle), based on the early records of Schnellenberger, Johnson and yes Davis would have been howling for banner planes to fly to help fire those bums.
1. When WEZ flew the banners to get rid of Golden - everyone said the same thing - we'll never get a coach to come here. Been there, heard that. If that were true - Richt wouldn't be here.
2. Butch Davis did the bulk of recruiting for Jimmy Johnson. Jimmy won his NC.
3. Jimmy Johnson's team - handed to Erickson - was already loaded - compliments of Butch Davis.
That accounts for the personnel that won three of those National Championships.
4. Butch then came in - after UM was handed 31 scholarship reductions - and recruited his own team - that in 2000 lost one game and should have played for a NC - in 2001 one - his boys under Clappy won a NC - and in 2002 - was cheated out of a NC in the last seconds.
Every team except Schnellenbergers - Butch had a big hand in recruiting those great teams.
Mark Richt is a good representative - well spoken, good at administrative things - a really nice guy.
But he's NOT an Offensive Coordinator. And NO ONE hires family if they have a brain in their head - Richt can't make changes. He's the guy who would have ordered the Charge of the Light Brigade.
I'm not negging you - but I do appreciate that you are stating the exact reasons that banners work - as the Admin and BOT think a lot like you do - and they don't like folks pointing out the obvious.

Now, I realize that the normal suspects will be down-voting this entry, along with the dumb, boring, etc. designations, not to mention the not terribly bright insults, but those actions do one thing...they prove my case. But where are the clowns--Send in the clowns--Don't bother, they're already here!
