... I know more than three kids that will not consider UM its not because Al Golden not even because of 6-7 but cause of some of the rhetoric that goes on here...If Al was to get fired UM will have to buy out.. it will be like UM paying two coaches until 2019...
The predecessors of this board were around back when Davis was coaching. He was roasted frequently for in game decisions. It wasn't pretty after UW '00. But when he landed DJ Williams, the internet almost broke.
If some kids tell you they don't want to come to Miami because of social media, those kids probably wouldn't be coming to Miami if we were all idiotic sunshine pumpers either. The empty stadium? The losing record? No bowl wins since '06? Can't win one of the weakest divisions in football? Nah, I won't pick Miami because of a few hundred fans on teh internets. Seems legit.
The kids may tell you that, or your boy that, but that ain't a real reason. It's saving face.
For the record, I'm glad your boy picked Miami. I think this staff has proven they can develop LBs, so if his goal is the NFL, he will have as good a shot as any. But the staff has also proven they don't know how to win. And asking fans to ignore that is pretty absurd.
It's nothing specific to Miami, either. Auburn fans booed Gene Chizik when he landed to accept the job. Check YouTube. Losing breeds hostility. Losing at Miami is no exception, by any means.
Paying two coaches might be cheaper than paying for an empty stadium, anyway.
