Those three hires were all viewed as bargain basement hires. Golden was the only one with any head coaching experience, and that was at freaking Temple. We all hoped each one would do well, but none of them were qualified.I am agreeing with you. The TROLL is Shalala and the problem she destroyed our great program single handily. Everything has changed since she left.Da fug are you even trying to say? Frenk was about to hire Schiano before the gift of Richt fell into his lap. This IPF is being built because Richt donated $1 mil of his own cash to get this thing rolling. Why are we talking about administrators that will always fck over this university? Frenk is no different. We should be talking about Richt's generosity and desire to see this program succeed like no other coach in our history ever has.
I'm not agreeing with you. Shalala didn't do jack ****, just like Frenk isn't doing jack ****, just like Foote didn't do jack ****. Coker, Shannon, and Golden were all viewed as good hires at the time. ****, a lot of people on here were bashing Richt when we hired him. Many people were asking why our beloved university was hiring someone else's discarded trash. Prior to Richt falling into our lap, the candidates for the job were Schiano and Mullen. Yall act like it was between Richt, Chip Kelly and Saban. None of the presidents really give a **** what happens, just as long as we have a good image and are profitable. For some reason there's a group of people on here who are downright obsessed with Donna Shalala and it's more than likely due to her politics than anything else.
Exactly. Ask anyone who knew and they would shake their heads at all of those hires upon being announced. When Coker was hired, I shook my head and said "Well, we had a good run." I thought old Larry proved me wrong right off the bat. Apparently, I was right in the first place. Then when Shannon was hired, I was nauseous. I was told we had to resort to him because the Big East was suing us for leaving and Shannon was the best choice in that price range. PRICE RANGE!? We were only a few years removed from our last National Title and even less from our last BCS bowl win! Miami should have had boosters and money to spare! So we promote the assistant of the guy so bad we had to fire. Then we fired him and offered Gruden. Whoa! Now we're talking...no...wait...no. How about Trestman, Golden or Edsall? Ugh. Fine.
Yeah everyone knew, huh. Everyone knew Richt would be trash too. I mean why would we hire someone Georgia just fired?
