he's not a bum, i think he's a solid coach. is he an elite coach that is worth $7+ mill per year? nope...
is he the one, imho, who will maximize miami's talent and actually have us competing for championships every year? he could strike lightening in a bottle here or there, but i don't think he's a good enough coach to be a consistent winner year in and year out.
is he an upgrade over manny diaz? of course...
But Lane is clearly the better coach, more of an innovator on offense, just as good at recruiting imho (look at how he recruited at USC despite those sanctions), and doesn't lose to those vastly inferior teams nearly as much as mario does...that's a huge red flag for mario.
if we're gonna go all in and make this program what it deserves to be and what it CAN be...then Lane has to be the answer guys.
enough of this miami connection every god **** coaching cycle (save for al golden)...it's cost us dearly. bring in the best coach available period...and that person is lane kiffin.
