David Cooney

Feel like if we were going with Cooney as WR coach, it would have already been announced. I love the Cooney and DVD recruiting department tandem. Young and hungry guys on the trail who can connect to the kids we recruit.

So does Rumph get credit for Tyson Campbell or Surtain for finishing 2nd/3rd in those recruitments? Please stop.

Who said that? I’m just saying the guy is a pretty good recruiter. I don’t want him as the receiver coach let’s be clear

The question is, what do you know about coaching, specifically coaching WRs, and what do you know about David Cooney that forms your opinion of him not being a good WR coach.

Because I seriously doubt you know anything about either. But I could be wrong. So what do you say?

If Cooney was such a great technical coach, why is it Wiggins and Pope have struggled to make the transition to college? those guys are physically talented and flashed at times but struggle with consistency and fundamentals.

Well, he's not coaching them so...

You did. You literally cited him missing out on Georgia Pickens as proof of him being a good recruiter.

you said that you don't want Cooney as a WR coach. You said, "let's be clear, I don't want him as WR coach".

I am asking you, what credibility do you have when it comes to how to coach WRs or what type of WR coach David Cooney is?

It's not hard. I challenged you to provide your credentials. OR, you could say, "hey buddy, I have no knowledge of what makes a good WR coach and I don't know anything about David Cooney as a coach", and go on with your day.

What credentials do I really need To have to say I dont want an inexperienced coach at this LEVEL to be the receiving coach at Miami. There are plenty other experienced coaches that Miami could/should go after other than cooney, get real.
 
I would be all for letting cooney be the wr coach and then letting DVD be the head of the recruiting department and then bring in lockette or hova for the other spot

Okay, so nothing. You don't know anything about what makes a quality WR coach and you know nothing about David Cooney. Great. I'm glad you cleared that up.

I respect your blind fandom, but sometimes you are really obtuse. If he is a great recruiter, so much that we should have another first time college coach, then he better have more of a recruiting track record that a 5th year transfer and a miss. Part of being a great recruiter is sniffing out those situations and focusing time and efforts where it may pay dividends.
 
The fact that people think the director of recruiting is 1. a primary recruiter 2. only got 1 guy just lets me know how clueless people are.
 
what i don't understand is why UM doesn't seem to want to build a huge budget and department for all these "recruiting specialist / O-consultants / D-consultants". The big boys are hiring former CFB Head coaches to be non-coaching consultants and specialist, and we hire minimal amount of HS coaches. Then we feel the need to eventually move them to position coaches... DL coach was suppose to be in that role, and I get why they slid him to actual coach last year, but ****... get him back to what you wanted him for and go hire a heck of a Dline coach... IMO patke is probably another consultant/specialist type guy. IMO DVD and Cooney arent experienced enough to be P5 position coaches and should stay where they are at. If they excel at it, then show them the money. Pay them big bucks to be happy and continue to excel at their roles...

we arent a player bag school, but ****, lets at least compete with bags in regards to staffing.

Exactly this. Hire high school coaches, get high school results.
