Just curious here, why would we not consider him. Does he have some baggage?Neither he or Miami would be interested in each other.
He’s lived, played & coached in the state of Ohio for his entire life, literally never left Ohio, so there’s no scenario where he just up & leaves a place he’s spent over 40 years of his life to come to a program like Miami.
Even in the off chance he does leave Cincinnati, it wouldn’t be to Miami FL, it would be somewhere close to Ohio/Midwest. A hypothetical situation would be if James Franklin leaves Penn St, a guy like Fickell would be someone who’s high on their list to replace Franklin.
Plus, we would never even consider him.
Fickell has one dream job in mind. OSU.
No.Just curious here, why would we not consider him. Does he have some baggage?
This is why I wonder if money is really an issue. If its not you make Fickell say no.I think the only jobs he would take are OSU, PSU and ND. I think he already told USC no.
He’s gonna stay at Cincinnati until Ryan Day leaves OH St, that’s his dream job.
But he’s never leaving the state of Ohio.

Are you being facetious?No.
He just doesn’t meet the criteria for coaches, not a former Cane & has no Miami ties.
No, just use logic...That sucks. He should've been #1 on everyone's board imo. Can coach his a** off!
Are you being facetious?
Nope. The admin wouldn't even give a guy like Fickell a call and I think that's an issue within itself which was why I asked. I just wanted to confirm.No, just use logic...
Based on what you know about our program & how they operate, does Luke Fickell even remotely come close to the kind of coach we would even interview let alone hire?
Agreed, the dude and his wife have 6 kids in school. He’s a Midwesterner, he ain’t packing up 6 crumb snatchers and a wife and move to Miami.No reason to contact him, you know he’s not leaving Cincinnati except for Ohio State, and perhaps Penn State or Notre Dame.
You might as well contact Mike Tomlin while you‘re at it.
I swear some posters don‘t read…
Yes and the playoff is expanding as well.They have a chance to be the best team in big12 soon. That's probably enough for him.
***e LickleNah, last name rhymes with Pickle. Dude sucks
