Ferman is hinting that Highsmith deal is on the way

Ferman has had his issues, no doubt. But at least lately he’s been kind of going scorched earth on the admin. He’s always been in the middle ground even when coaches were obviously failing but this time around he hasn’t been pulling any punches. Everything helps at this point

But those people can’t hire and fire coaches. Zo would have that power like an NFL GM would. Probably a say over personnel too. How many coaches on the college level would be ok with that? That’s the interesting part.

When youre a 1st time HC at a (has been) major power 5 school, you should expect it. The only way you should full control at Miami is if youre a proven commodity.

No problem. When I said sort of, a Highsmith position would be different I would imagine.
Saban isn’t taking orders from those two positions since he already knows what the **** is going on. I would imagine those positions are just a more football focused section of the Athletics Department so the overall Athletics Director can focus on other things.
I think Highsmith coming in would be more like a GM, so definitely a different kind of position which may be unique in college football, but definitely not something completely out of left field.
At this point we need to think outside the box and get some football people in the building that are between the coaching staff and the admin which has no idea what it’s doing.

College football has changed so much over the years.

No doubt, but he’s never been so against the admin and coaching staff as he is right now. Didn’t go that route for clicks with Randy and Golden.

Although I don’t know if clicks count, it’s a pay board. You can’t view the content unless you are a paying member. So it’s not like he’s generating clicks from people unless they are already paying (or like me who occasionally signs up for the free membership and cycles it every few months when I want to see a little extra canes info)

Per Ferman he says it’s in deep discussion within the admin and expects it to happen early Jan.
Gotta take everything from him with a grain of salt but he is sort of hinting that it’s highly probable it happens and already in negotiation phase.

If this keeps all the ****sticks within the administration who don't care about Football away from the Football program, I'll take it...

They just need to move out the way & let someone who knows & cares about Football make the decisions, instead of just staying status quo all the time & accepting mediocrity.

If these clowns aren’t going to get rid of Blake James it’s the best case scenario. Let that Cuck do fundraising and let Zo handle business. Wish it could have happened like last week so he could can the staff and restart but at least the next time we look for a coach we will have a true football expert who also happens to bleed orange and green making the decisions.

I think the only way this ends is with GM Zo doing a coaching search after next season and then just naming himself head coach.

Kinda like when the Marleens GM made himself manager or when **** Cheney looked for vice presidents for Dubya.

UM then invades Iraq before being sold to Derek Jeter in 2024.

And AH should hire LCE as the SoFla recruiting adviser.
 
Maybe the BOT are tired of Flake’s incompetence when it comes to football and are willing to put up a couple million to put a football guy in charge of the biggest revenue stream the school has.
It’s a **** of a lot cheaper than continuing to pay buyouts for failed coach after failed coach that flake brings in.

hope Ferbag is right for once.

If Ferman is correct (for once) I will go back to be member and pay the monthly subscription fee. I know I know but what can I say I'm desperate for good news.

Step back from the ledge. People care about you and we're not going to let you hurt yourself.

Remember, it's still Ferman.
