LSU announced their coaching change after upsetting ranked UF

Do we win or play well enough to not scare recruits away? Need Taylor and Williams to stand out.

Depends on who the next HC is, no recruit is going to sign with Miami expecting for Diaz to be the HC next year.

So whoever we sign in the 22 class is coming here simply because they want to come to Miami regardless of the coach.

But if you’re expecting a good class for 22 you’re going to be disappointed, to be frank, this class is gonna be small & not high ranked at all. We’re gonna have to rely heavily on the Portal.

Interesting your take on OU as better than both. Is that because of path to the playoffs or infrastructure/crootin system in place?

Both.

It’s much easier to get to the playoffs for Oklahoma than it is for LSU or even Clemson.

And from an infrastructure standpoint Oklahoma is on equal footing with LSU/Clemson in terms of financial support by boosters & allocated funds into the football program.

Also, Oklahoma has just as good of access to great recruits as the two program do as well, Oklahoma pulls largely from Texas, but can also periodically dip into FL, Cali, the underrated AZ market (that produces great QB’s annually) & can even broach into the Midwest market shared with OH St & Michigan. Oklahoma locally has actually produced some high caliber recruits as well so they can take from their own backyard too.

LSU is a great program due to it’s location in relation to a hot recruiting zone in Louisiana & because they have booster that don’t mind spending money. Clemson is a great program because they have great infrastructure, a great coach & are willing to spend money. Oklahoma is a great program because of their history, prestige, access to recruits, infrastructure, willingness to spend money & have one of the best offensive minded QB guru’s in the business.

LSU can only rise to the level of the coach they have, Clemsom is similar, Oklahoma could be looked at in the same way, but I think out of the 3 Oklahoma would survive the best if they lost their coach, meaning they have the structure to replace a great HC & produce another one. IMO Clemson goes as Dabo goes & LSU is solely dependent on finding a guy that can capture lightning in a bottle & out recruit Saban for a year or two.

The point I was trying to make is that we don’t keep coaches here very long. This fan base wants immediately gratification and lacks the understanding of how to build a winning program. Not saying Manny is the coach to turn the program around. We have a proven history of firing coaches quickly (HC and assistant coaches). We need to really find the right guy that wants to be here and will provide some consistency for our players.

OU joining SEC levels the field a bit. Curious the impact that will have on recruiting

LSU is going after riley, supposedly, in the $12m range.

Rileys NFL buyout drops to $0 after 2022. He obviously negotiated that into the contract - makes no sense why Oklahoma would agree to waive his buyout if leaves for the NFL after 2022. It would be silly to leave Oklahoma for LSU.

My guess is he'll get paid quite a bit more than Sean McVay (8.5 million) by some NFL team. Really no risk for him, if he flops in the NFL there will be a 10 million dollar job waiting for him in the college ranks.

Didn't we always bring our girlfriends and their kiddos to play on squadron equipment?

That wasn't illegal was it? Did I miss an AFI or MFR??

That story was fake news. Dude definitely has issues but the bringing girlfriends to practice story was bogus.

Huh?
Randy Shannon: Hired Dec. 2006. He coached the 2007 season, and was fired after our last game of 2010 against USF. He coached 4 seasons.

Al Golden: Hired Dec. 2010. He coached the 2011 season, and was fired 7 games into the 2015 season. He coached for 4.5 yrs.

Richt is the only coach to coach for 3 yrs or less.

Coker: 6 yrs
Shannon: 4 yrs
Golden: 4.5 yrs
Richt: 3 yrs (b/c he retired)
Manny: TBD

No... You're point was we haven't had a coach here for longer than 3 years since 2001... It was pretty clear what you wrote..

LSU is a bonafide football factory in Baton Rouge, Louisiana—where nothing looms bigger than Tigers football, basketball and baseball—the latter a distant second and third.

LSU has 30,000 undergrads and the university is one of the largest employers in the state.

The University of Miami is a small private school with 11,000 undergrads, in a large, metropolitan city with four pro sports franchises and a slew of other ways to spend the entertainment dollar in a vacation destination.

The fact anyone is still trying to compare moves an LSU makes and what UM is doing—night and day. Zero comparison.

Not to mention, despite all the LSU slurping going on, the last time they ran a coach out of town, they ended up hiring Ed Orgeron.

I’m well aware my man, this was humor and sarcasm blended into one message. It’s all I have to keep me sane while dealing with the ****show we call our athletic department and coaching staff.

My God is this dumb. In what universe does that happen? And if it did, in what universe should he be fired??

1. He deserves to be fired regardless.

2. Don’t say they can’t win out until the games are all over. None of us know if Miami wins out our loses out or splits until them clocks hit 0:00

Do I think he wins out? No but none of us know how these games go until they are played.

Should have been fired after FIU. If we keep him we delay the inevitable. “What will be done eventually must be done immediately “

3. Shut yo hoeass up
 
Manny Diaz will not be our coach next year unless for some reason he is able to pull off an ACC championship.
