They aren't really paying for three staffs though. Richt left without a buyout, and most of his assistants were on short term deals. Golden's stuff should be coming off the books soon, if it hasn't already, same with Shannon. Let's be honest: Richt tried to do us a solid and Blake James failed miserably. Miami doesn't have to pay 6 million per year to be competent. Most of us just want a watchable, compelling product. The adults in the room realizes that unless the NCAA starts enforcing the rules or creates parity by legislation, it's borderline impossible for Miami to consistently compete with the elites. That said, Miami can be competent, can be what Notre Dame is right now. Bill Clark, Willie Fritz, any competent, detail orientated coach could produce that. Miami hired Manny Diaz instead. That's why a lot of us were ****ed when he was announced. We knew that Blake James had managed to botch the hiring process.
