What would the administration do?

New full blown HC or will they promote Diaz and let him rebuild?

For me it will be a bad move to promote Diaz as it will handicap us 2-3 more years.

Any way we look at it the recruiting class is doom unless is a homerun hire!

Opinions?

I said it in another post. Think about this at a deeper level. What are the issues that plague Miami?

1. Offensive innovation
2. SEC bags buying best recruits
3. Tobacco Road refs ******** us (think about how many plays last year without a holding call, cost us in Wisky game big time as well)

We gave up on points 2 and 3, thinking there is nothing we can do. Emmert won't touch the SEC and Miami is stuck in the ACC. As long as 2 &3 exist, Miami will struggle to make up ground.

But a solution has only now presented itself. Mike Leach is good friends with President Trump. Trump tried to get Leach a job at Miami in 2010. Trump was barely a TV celebrity at the time and had no juice. If Saban tries his old "give mom and dad 6 figure jobs at his dealership" trick, you know Leach will complain to Trump, who will demand an investigation of SEC cheating and make life miserable for SEC cheaters (he doesn't have to worry about losing voters since those states are so red). If Miami gets screwed by the ACC refs, Trump will be tweeting about it at 3 AM. Acc will force Refs will call games fair to avoid getting lit up by the Prez.

Look, at first glance I'm not in favor of Leach. But you have to think five moves ahead. Getting Miami back to the top requires more than just Xs and Os. Miami needs a real edge to get back to winning championships. Leach, by leveraging the President, may finally be able to level the playing field.

They'd almost have to IMO, it would be a bad look for the program if he retires after asub-par season, the narrative would be Miami is a wreck...which may be true, but...

Irrelevant what the buyout is imo. If it’s not working out for either side, a deal will be made

It’s absolutely relevent because If we owe $20 million, a buyout will be at least $12 million on the very, very low end. And that’s still not doable

That's a few extra tomatoes for Papa DiMare. Nevertheless, the extension was stupid. We have a habit of doing that.

The point is I don’t think it will get to that point. He can leave here In a year and they can work something out - and not give the $20m buyout. Meaning, I don’t think he’d put the school in that bind where they’d have to fire him first. He ask for a “mutual parting of ways” kind of buyout, first.
 
Well, Richt is definitely not retiring, but if he did this school would undoubtedly, 100% make the safest hire possible in Diaz.

"Coaches who don’t change its staff or approaches are more focused on helping coaches instead of the team."

Buchanon nailed it. And let's face it. He's talking about Mr nepotism himself. Everyone sees it. There's no hiding it anymore.
 
If we get a bad *** offensive coordinator and pay him extremely well....Diaz could work.

However, what I would really like to see them do is actually make an aggressive hire for once. Take a chance on Briles or Kiffin. We need our next coach to have a little ******* in him. Enough with the nice guys.
