I actually think Oregon would have hired Richt, because specifically, you are right. Les had a National Title, recent SEC title and competed for another one. Les' main issue seems to be getting along with AD's which Richt seems to have covered.
Long story short, I think Miami has learned a lot in the last round of hires. Stop promoting assistants into the HC position. Make sure your HC has accomplished something (SEC Titles and high win percentage,) raise the salary and improve the facilities.
Oregon wouldn’t hire Richt.
Look at every coach they have hired from Bellotti to Cristobal. There is ONE exception but Richt wouldn’t fit that either.
Miami hasn’t learned much as evidenced by:
1. The hiring of Richt,
2. The unnecessary extension (that is 4 in a row for us), and
3. The apathy and lack of pressure on Richt and this continued OC experiment.
