Man, Lane looks great in his new gear

[RedSquare]

He would be purely a rental. He has not left a single previous stop on good terms.

Why would a stay at Miami be different??

this.

every head coaching job he's left, it's been on nasty terms. he's the butch davis of his era, where the people he's worked for, after he leaves, want nothing to do with him.

I think you just made CaneInOrlando's head explode

 

[CBurrr93]

I’d prefer kiffin over Mario. And I have no idea if that would be the right decision. Time may tell

 

[TitansHope]

i mean, people are saying he'd leave but if he's actually able to contend for titles here where would he even go?

If you say Butch Davis 5 times into a mirror, Caneinorlando will appear behind you

I can't speak to that and I'm not dunking on butch.

he assembled a great roster of players (obviously) and assistant coaches (CJ, Pagano, and Hargreaves, and others )

but the fact is, he left on bad terms at all of those places, so much so his non-grata at all of them. some guys just seem to exit ungracefully.

It wouldn't, but you can't tell some people anything.

 

[NE Canes]

Not knocking Lane, but I need help understanding why people are obsessed with him. I love the swag, the splash hire, the fact the local recruits/HS coaches would go nuts. But looking at his P5 record over 7 full seasons, he only won 10 games once, and that included a bowl game.

I’m not ****ing in the Kool-Aid, I just want to know what the best case for him is.

There appears to be two groups obsessed with him.

All part of the fun I guess.

Well, I don't like your assessment, but I believe you are correct.
If he does really well, and he probably would, the first NFL flirtation and he's gone.

 

[canesdude]

Tbh I hope it doesn’t get to Lane

Do you really think Mas would let that happen, the brinks truck will be backed up to Mario's door.

 

[RaisingCane26]

Then leave in 2-3 yrs...and ANOTHER Buyout...can't keep this buyout, Coach search every F-ing 3yrs BS......it's getting old...UM needs stability as much as anything.

Probably the single most important factor with the head coach hire. Mario provides that more than anyone.

 

[canefan96]

Ole Miss loves him.

Then you put in a contract clause like Clemson did with Dabo, where it will cost $45 million to hire him away. If Kiffin is at UM for two years and a NFL owner or school wants to pay UM $45 million for Kiffin, then I don't give a **** about continuity. If this is your main hesitation about Kiffin, it is a problem that is easily resolved with a simple contract clause. UM could take that 45 million buyout, give Oregon 7 mil for Cristobal and then have 38 million dollars extra for the HC and staffs salary.

This is why you have a top notch AD. If the HC is successful and gets hired away by the NFL, the AD should be able to get another home run hire, just like JJ replaced Schnelly, Erickson replaced JJ, and then Butch replaced Erickson. I trust Tom Jurich as he has demonstrated he knows how to find good HC candidates.

 

[Dyalect79]

I woudn't mind it.

Why y’all put lane face on Diaz body dawg?

 

[252cane]

Either would I but would we alos be a 2 year pit stop like TN, USC, FAU and Ole Miss? Or would he actually give us 4-5 years to make a run at championships

Where did this narrative come from? He left tennessee after 1 year for usc because he spent years at usc and it’s a big city which he seems to like. He was at usc 4 years and was fired he didn’t leave. He spent 3 years at bama as oc and left for the fau hc job and he was there 3 years. This narrative that he is just jumping up leaving jobs is fake

He didn’t leave fau on bad terms. And y’all keep bringing up stuff from 15 years ago.

 

[canefan96]

That is my concern as well. Less than 4-5 years is a problem because I think that we realistically need 4-5 years with the right coaching and admin support to compete for anything more than the ACC Coastal.

He would elevate us to a top team in 2-3 years, tie him into a large buyout and if someone poaches him we actually end up on the receiving end.

 

[Heart of The Playmaker]

Should have been our guy when Richt left, people get caught up in the BS when he was at the Raiders and Tenn. Dude can coach and has grown quite a bit over the years, would freaking KILL it here.

Preaching to the choir my bro....been saying this...
The U would be feared...big time
