We love coaches. We love weather. Why not coalesce those two worlds and call it Coaching Forecast?
AccuBrilliant.
But really, this is not a hot seat index, though in some cases it could serve as that. The goal is simply to take a broad, national look at where coaches and their programs stand and where the breeze might be taking them in the next three months.
Let's get started.
Al Golden, Miami: Partly cloudy, periods of rain and sun
Let's be clear: Al Golden's seat is not hot, or even lukewarm. The season would have to fall apart for something like that. But since a coach's fourth year is about progress, the offensive struggles during Monday's 31-13 loss to Louisville must be at least slightly concerning. A conservative approach with freshman quarterback Brad Kaaya was understandable. The Canes struggling to run the ball was not. Duke Johnson had 58 yards on 18 carries through three quarters.
It has been almost a year since the NCAA released Miami's sanctions. No more caveats. Golden's tenure will be judged solely by on-field performance. Miami still has away games with Nebraska and Virginia Tech, and Florida State comes to Sun Life Stadium on Nov. 15.
Weather advice: Clouds should clear up but pack a windbreaker. Hurricane season is unpredictable like that.
