I told yall waaaaay back before Shannon got hired, on Canestime, that our move to the ACC was part of a much larger and nefarious plot to improve the product known as CFB. I hear, periodically, that "CFB is much better when Miami is on top". Ever heard a talking head mutter this phrase on your boob tube? I have too. The problem is that, according to the powers that be, the aforementioned phrase is a load of bullchit. In fact, it's the EXACT OPPOSITE! CFB is a better and more lucrative product when Miami football is down.
When I was a 1L in law school, I learned the basic components of a contract-"offer", "acceptance" and "consideration". We were offered a steady ACC paycheck in consideration of "pulling the fangs" from the mighty jaws that was UM football, and Shalala obviously accepted the terms of this contract, as we are-and have been- mired in mediocrity ever since. Well...what was the end game of such a contract? CFB got a **** of a lot more competitive and lucrative. Has anyone else noticed the correlation between our ACC admittance and the sudden explosion of "SEC dominance"? Ask yourselves..."what is that Alabama team from a couple seasons ago without Amari Cooper?"..."do they win the ship???"...."what does a Sammie Watkins-less Clemson team really look like?"..."does FSU win the ship without Cook, Rudolph, etc???"..."how about the make up of an OSU squad without top tier, S. FL talent????". Miami being in the ******* means that all the big boys of CFB get 1-2 shiny, black S. FL. "difference-makers" to play with. New, awesome "transformers" (program, that is) while we are stuck playing with cheap, plastic "Go-Bots" (80's reference, lol). And while there is nothing exactly "wrong" with "Go-Bots" per se, having a coach with the requisite imagination can still have a very entertaining time playing with a "lesser" toy. Problem is, I believe that hiring unimaginative coaches that are not known for doing more with less was actually a part of the "de-fanging" of our football program as outlined in our contract with the powers that be.
Now we are at a crossroads with our program...a pivotal moment that will decide whether or not we awaken from our self-induced coma or remain sleep-walking every Saturday. And at such a delicate and important time...."Mario fck'g Christobal" is being bandied about the collective zeitgeist of the fan-base as a leading candidate???? W.T.F.. I firmly believe that those same Devils that contracted with a greedy and self-serving Administration are the same culprits behind this marketing of a failed HC. Mario Christobal's name will continue to spill from the ****-mouthed media as Miami's leading man while continuing to reference Davis' non-misgivings at UNC as the principal reason he remains categorized as an "undesirable" hire. As a side note, I also believe that Davis realized (too late) that he was lured away from Miami as a part of this nefarious plot on behalf of the NFL's "minor-league". They will continue to test the waters with Christobal-and it's working because I've heard numerous posters acquiesce to the idea of bringing this guy in as a fck'g HC in waiting....because???? We have to keep the pressure on these people. We cannot let up. We MUST let them know that we are on to the bullsh1t and that it's "go hard or go home" with our next coaching hire. If that means flying banners?-so be it! Let's rip up this fck'g contract in the collective faces of CFB and our administration and let the pieces rain down on those b1tches like confetti!!!!!!!
