Gotta agree with this. I don't have a clue who the next coach would be, but another 6-8 win season will not look good. Especially since we should start 4-0. We simply can't beat up the little guys then go .500, or worse, against average to good competition. We have talent now, and the depth, while not quite where we want it to be, is darn sure good enough to beat the Virginias of the world. Win or leave, it's that simple. And for ONCE we ALL want to see a team that's better at the end of the year than at the beginning. We had a huge opportunity last year to end strong, and we blew it. If that happens again, I too think he's gone.

You're in a fantasy world if you think Golden has another mediocre season and Golden is not fired.

Mark it down, the final home game will mirror what the final home game was for Shamadingdong. And we all know what happened afterwards...

No worries. Golden will be gone! New HC, Chudzinski, will sell hope and a fresh beginning.

Alabama offer or 6-7 MIAMI offer...

No brainer. He gone

Golden will be here... Not getting fired this season.

Great call Geo. Thanks.

Go Canes!

Contrary to popular belief not every kid wants to go to Bama. Location, depth chart, etc.. Not always the best fit. Wouldn't just write it off that he's gone

Its not just that, its the prestige of the offer. even the media was like "WOW, HUGE OFFER" and it devalues his commitment right away. now he may do a Keyshawn Camp once he got the bama offer and de commit because others want him or he will stick with The U because its his home. its a big test for him

Alabama offer or 6-7 MIAMI offer...

No brainer. He gone

Go find the last front 7 player from South Florida that Alabama got.

That system doesn't fit what the kids in the area are good at and what they like to do. Much like Golden's system doesn't.

Uche is perfect for what Alabama does.

Maybe. But South Florida front 7 players don't sign with Alabama. None in 10 years.

This year is the beginning of Golden's Renaissance!

Picture of you at work on Al. And no.

Just a matter of time until Cristobal visits our best recruits and gets them packing for Alabama Biscuits.

Alabama already has 17 commits and only 1 JUCO K from Florida.

They have commits from 12 different states:
4 AL
3 TX
1 CA
1 LA
1 VA
1 MI
1 MS
1 GA
1 LA
1 MO
1 FL (JUCO NY)
1 CT (JUCO NY)

They took 3 guys from FL last year (Burgess-Becker, Ridley, Harrison), 1 in 2013 (McBride), 2 in 2012 (Henry, Jackson), 3 in 2011 (Cooper, Black, Williams - Cooper was lowest rated of the 3).

I don't think Bama wants or needs more than 2-3 guys a year from FL, they were getting theirs before Mario.

Uche on Offer from Bama:

Uche came to expect it as Alabama was showing plenty of interest leading up to Tuesday when he was offered personally by coach Nick Saban at an Alabama camp.

While honored by the offer, the 6-2,216-pound weak-side defensive end remains solid to Miami right now.

"I'm strong on my Miami commitment, but you never know," Uche says. "There's nobody that doesn't have a chance. I appreciate every offer."

The Hurricanes are special to him because they offered him at a time when he only had offers from Marshall and Bowling Green.

"They were my first big offer, the first team to really take a chance on me, so I really liked that," Uche says.

Great news, I hope he honors his commitment.
