Joaquin Gonzalez says....

Are some of you that stupid ? Complaining about that list like its a real ****ing list of candidates that the firm gave to juaquin, clearly that's a list of what ex players like juaquin want and WE ALREADY KNEW THIS. So why do yall just insist on crying ?

So you are saying...that the firm is taking time to interview all these ex players...and during that interview they asks all these ex players who they want....only to wipe their *** with the ex players opinion.
Because it woukd seem that since they took the time to interview all these ex players and the all gave a consensus on four candidates...that it would be taken seriously.
I mean why waste time doing it.

I think we're misinterpreting the tweet.

It sounds like the search firm is soliciting opinions from former players, and the former players are naming those four. Which would make sense, since they don't have experience with other possible candidates.

I doubt the headhunters gave Joaquin their own list. I doubt they even have a list. The conversation probably went something like this:

Joaquin: What names have you been hearing from the other players?
Headhunter: We hear a lot about Butch and Mario, some about Chud, and a little about Schiano.

Spot on. You left off the last part though.

Joaquin: So how are you setup with tires?
Headhunter: Huh?

Joaquin: I have some barely used radials we just got in from Mexico. I'll give you a sweet deal.
Headhunter: Did Chuck Neinas tell you to mess with me?

Joaquin: Huh? I could have went to Harvard you know.
Headhunter: Good to know. We're done here.

My understanding is they've sold their business.

So Joaquin is DEFINITELY free to join Mario's staff?! We back!!!

Who is covering their ****? There is no reason Blake should be AD, yet he is still here. There is no reason that DiMare should be involved with the search, yet he is still apart of the search. Who is covering?

It just sounds like waste. We're not some random company in the middle of this country who needs to find a new leader. Since we're limited in our contacts we hire some executive search team to uncover some gems we're not familiar with. When you're unfamiliar with the potential candidates (as in who is out there), I get it.

Who the *** are these clowns going to find that are unknown? We know the coaches and how they perform. They have agents, gauge interest and move forward. Assemble a list and then hunt.

Our AD was not prepared for any search. Our AD is already known as a retarded puppet too. He should have been ready to go WAY before this point. He should have contacts and know the market. He should know what we can offer.

I never expected to hire a coach before early December, but the way they're handling this process reeks of another failure.

Any AD worth half a **** has a list of candidates that he works on constantly even while he has a HC in place. That's what Tom Jurich does.

Who exactly is being CYA'd by any of this **** anyway? If the next hire fails, then everyone will just blame the AD like they always do. No one is going to say, "**** that Korn Ferry really fcked us. Fire them! Oh, they're not employees? Then, let's write a letter to the newspaper." No one will give a **** who was involved if they fck up this next hire. The heat will flow directly to the AD as it always does even if he's a spineless muppet.

They've got so many **** people involved in this **** that it's a circus. Bunch of non-football followers on the BOT, bunch of ex-players with all their own agendas to hire their friends or ex-coaches, a search firm that isn't going to uncover anything. What a fcking clown show. 8000 cooks to brew up a diarrhea stew.

Cue the Benny Hill theme.

By CYA, I mean they want to say and show that they involved the players in the process. Many of the former players have complained. This is part of the song and dance.
 
What a fcking joke this school is with that pathetic list.

P.S. I bet they're not all that happy that Joaquin has diarrhea of the mouth. Doubt they wanted him spewing that stuff publicly.

Joaquin clarified that it's not the school's list or the search firm's list. Those are the names being suggested by former players.

That's great. Unfortunately, the former players are apparently clueless when it comes to choosing a HC. They're stuck in a time warp and only want the job given to one of their friends or to someone that they played for or with.

P.S. Joaquin needs to learn to write more clearly if he wants to be a newsman breaking stories. Then, he gets all worked up when his own words were wide open to mixed interpretations.

Are we the only university out there that takes the input of the players? And why the **** do we care?

Sam Jankovich didn't need their input and he hired Jimmy Johnson and Dennis Erickson. Imagine what **** pile we end up with if he polled the players on who they wanted.

Last few times we asked former/current players we ended up with Larry Coker and Randy Shannon.

MAKE IT STOP

Exactly. The only thing someone with borderline dangerous optimism might pray results from the 613 chefs in this kitchen is that it possibly might generate a large candidate pool. As you said, a real AD should be able to do this himself in a weekend. Only an incompetent or complete beta would delegate this much influence to others to not only agree to a search committee but also employ a search firm when you're the only person getting fired from this party if a bad decision is made.

If I were Flake I would of started searching the second I got the job. Everyone who hires and fires people should know you should be looking.. having someone ready to go or someone on your mind to come in if said person needs to be replaced. Flake shouldve had a short list of coaches ready to interview before Golden ever got fired.

Maaaybe he does.. but the way he's handled everything during his tenure so far screams incompetence. He was probably hoping Goldie would be a lifer.

This **** is an absolute circus. They run UM like Miami runs the city. The former players involved in the hiring process? What the **** is that ****?!

Kinda makes you understand why we don't have a ton of former players that have really killed it in coaching, huh?
 
If Mario/Mike Shula/or another dope is hired, I'm officially giving up college football for good. No more games or even watching them on tv. Its not worth the time, effort, and money, when there is no hope.
 
Joaquin just confirmed (in a tweet typed in Spanish) that the list of names is ex-player generated (i.e., NOT the names provided by the search firm).

SIAP.

Of course. Jesus, who thinks that Joaquin knows, much less would be permitted to disclose, everyone being considered?
 
The irony is that although Blake is sincere in doing a real search, those 4 are his guys. You could add Pagano, but most players and likely Blake don't believe he is available.

Can anyone confirm if other schools hire an agency to find new head coaches?
 
Yes, most schools do. This has been discussed. We can't just call other coaches or potential assistants, they can.
