Does Dave Hyde know anything?

[ssvir]

Why are we not considering Mark Stoops?

Buyout too big?

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

Buyout too big?

His buyout for taking another job isn’t big. The buyout if they fire him is

 

[Pentagon Cane]

You mean Mike Garrett. He was a he Heisman winning RB who accomplished that. Still makes your point

Yes. Swann had zero executive experience. Either did Pat Haden who replaced Garrett.

imagine another school hiring a former alum with zero experience for AD. only at Miami.

as someone else pointed out that school would be LSU hiring Skip Bertman and then proceeding to win 2 national championships in football.

I think Jurich would be a no brainer. But, if not him, and we strike out with a guy like Radadovich, I think a Zo/Nunez combo might be "good enough". They've got virtually all facets of an AD covered: fundraising, experience spearheading major facility upgrades at big schools, contracts, coaching/talent assessment, large network, etc.

kind of like how I feel about it. In the back of my mind I knew it would be a tough sell to any prominent AD to have to give up some power over to a predetermined "football operations" guy to begin with. This seems like the best likely scenario.

Who said we aren't? Id imagine they want to secure an AD first and everything we've heard is Mario and Kiffin. I'd imagine Stoops would be the #3 choice.

It sounds like this dude is just repeating rumors he's heard

And Mark stoops is probably currently in Norman begging for the Oklahoma job

The last six AD’s at Michigan have been alums. Only one had experience. They also have alums coaching football and men’s basketball.

We need an experienced AD. This isn’t only about ******* football. It is the entire sports program, navigating conference alignments, TV contracts, apparel deals.

We’re an ACC bottom feeder and our solution is to hire our friends.

Holy ****!

You’re correct and that’s been made a point from the beginning. I can say if Hyde knows than the rest of us truly involved in the program have been duped. To say Zo is the top choice or front runner or whatever is ridiculous. No offense to him but he’s not been the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd choice up to this point.

[jps2344]

If he gets the nod it will be because Jurich was shot down last minute or Purinton refused to make the move. I’d dismiss anything out of his mouth if he claims Zo was the preferred choice. That’s outright false.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

So there is this theory that Oregon has a open checkbook for football but now had their 247 writer begging for donations and they have NEVER once opened up the checkbook to either retain a HC or go get a quality one.

I hate the internet and all the parrots spewing false info

Yep, I've mentioned it before.

But 247 writers will talk about "Uncle Phil" as if he is some kindly old relative who is always giving you extra money in your birthday and holiday cards, and is just itching to give Mario extra millions just to stay.

Oregon could have given Mario a big raise/extension after the first Pac 12 championship. Or the second Pac 12 championship. ****, it's not like Mario is Mel Tucker. Wait, remind me what championships Mel Tucker has won?

 

[Problem2]

Twitter watch assemble!!!!

 

[TheOriginalCane]

I’d take lashlee as hc before taking Diaz back for another year

How much is Lashlee's buyout at SMU?

I mean, it's NOT unprecedented...

Purinton? Interesting

Time to go on Twitter watch

 

[swampcougar1]

Hyde doing what cis posters do. Puts out hot takes with little to no evidence to back them up

 

[bacane]

Ok, this would be so Miami - hire Alonzo as AD and Dorsey as HC.

 

[Rickd]

I agree 100%, but that is not what he said and that position is actually using Zo and his background as a strength. Making him AD would take away from his ability to do what he does best and add the most value.

Disagree .. Zo reportedly presented a comprehensive plan on how he would revitalize UM athletics overall .. and presented a STAFF that he would put in place to accomplish that. Don't underestimate his skill set and capabilities .. he would not be getting the position simply because he knows something about football.
