Embarrassing may 2013 thread where people like Golden

Advertisement
McGahee2TheHouse 05-28-2013, 09:57 AM I think Golden has mostly done a fantastic job. He's done wonders with off the field stuff, recruited good talent at most positions, and instilled the attitude and work ethic that a winning program needs. As rok said, though, I believe he still has much to prove re: the defense.

Staff hires: A
Something that I believe has been underrated. He's done an amazing job of hiring both top notch coaching talent and footballs rising coaches. Yeah there still might be a few question marks in Coach D and Jethro but I certainly don't blame him for sticking with them. They were key factors in his success at temple and I have faith they prove it this year as they did at Temple.

Player Development: A-
Another one of his strengths. He seems to always get the best out of most players and there always seems to be a few sleepers that come out of nowhere every season. He finds diamonds in the rough and molds them into high draft picks (Mohammed Wilkerson, bernard pierce, tahir whitehead, Dominique Wilkins). I can't wait to see the improvement this year.

Motivation: A+
To me probably his strongest quality. Even at Temple, you could sense how motivated these players were. They all believed they were participating in something special and you can see it in the miami players as well. He finds these seemingly cheesy quotes and catchphrases but the players believe and live by them.

Slow night for you huh?

I'm a Temple alum and he was the coach every year while I was a student so it was a fair assessment at the time. But yeah, I was obviously wrong in the long run. Dude is a chump.
 
CaneInTheHouse posted It took Butch 6 years through sanctions, so I will give Al the same time to get us back into the championship hunt. I think Al could have us there in 2015. Grade B.
Dynasty posted I basically agree with this. (Quoting Caneinthehouses' post)
DHucks posted As do I.

Love Al to death. I'll give him a solid B right now.

Needs to get with Coach D and get the D straightened out. It's been said before if the D was ranked even 75th, we may have won, one or more games. If that can improve, we should be at, at least a 9 win team. At that point, I'd go A-. If the D ends up top 50, 11 games , could be reality. I'd be at an A+

ACCCG champs and BCS Bowl berth, A++. NC win............oh lawd.
BrianF I would give Golden a higher grade than Shannon, any day of the year.

Golden gets a B+/A- in my book.

The defensive coaching staff needs to do a better job. Golden, Jethro, Dorito, Barrow, and Williams haven't exactly made the most out of what they've had.

I don't think Williams gets enough credit around here.

I think he's done a good job given the "talent" he's been given to work with thus far. ****, by the end of last season he had Rodgers looking half-way not ****ty.

Please tell me he wasn't referring to Paul Williams

Glad I didn't see any embarrassing comments by me.

I will say that at the time of his hire (I realize this was a 2013 post) I liked it. Temple played against bad teams, but they were a bad team with bad talent. AG did okay there. Okay at Temple was like winning since they were so ******. Anyways Im glad he is gone, but I have to admit I liked the hire. I thought his performance at Temple would scale at Miami. Unfortunately I think his win % was probably similar to that at Temple. That would have been okay if we were Temple or Duke pre-Cutcliff.

Eh moving on

What's depressing is this thread was before the 7-0 start to 2013. He was 13-11 at this point. That's a worse win % than Shannon had.
 
I can only imagine what threads on golden were like before the FSU game that year. People would have been even more positive.
