I mean I get it. We wanna say things like "best man for the job" , which is true, but you're fooling yourself if you think no one's going to notice there's not one guy who looks like you on an entire side of the ball.
I mean, we've asked the question a million times and no one really wants to answer it, but who tf have Banda and Patke landed if we're penalizing Rumph for his recruiting?
Banda's misses are just as epic as Rumph's.

Look at UGA, Clemson, and Bamas staffs. They don't look like that by accident.
It's bad optics, especially after what happened in the NFL today.
Representation matters to ppl. Its why they have the Rooney Rule for example.Oh that's an interesting development. Must be tied to his recruiting failures of late.
Do white parents notice that we barely have any white kids on D? Or do they just think "**** it, the U recruits the best players"?
'Cos that's all parents will think if these coaches put their kids in a position to succeed.
Which is why I said Rumph doesnt have to be retained, but you can't just have an all white staff.Fran Brown is black. His potential replacement.
Good source at Hecht tells me Rumph is not safe and his future will be decided in the next few days.
Dude you have managed to make the most asining comments I've ever read here and that is no small feat. No parents or players care if we have a staff full of Chinese people. What matters is do they trust them as people and coaches. Period. Remember when everyone was coming cause Radio........yeah.Which is why I said Rumph doesnt have to be retained, but you can't just have an all white staff.
Fran is a huge upgrade btw.
Unless we get in the bag game the next guy isn't getting those guys in the next recruiting cycle either. We'll get good players if we have a good year but they won't be elite. But we're still blaming position coaches I see. If he we don't change our recruiting philosophy($$$) or win so much that kids can't turn us down, missing on elite guys will continue.
I was waiting for the a Radio comment. Has nothing to w what Im saying. At all. And since you said no one cares, what about Kellen Winsow? And that's just one who was public about it.Dude you have managed to make the most asining comments I've ever read here and that is no small feat.

Please...enough with the coaching-inexperienced ex-Miami players as coaches.
Shallow thinking. Just as dumb as ever.
Where’s your post about bringing Ray Lewis to be DC?
Manny better win.
That would be insane.
I think savage is one of the most cliche things said around here (right next to SF dog) but holy **** this Diaz guy is ******* crazy, and I love it.
Dumb. Coaches hire who they believe will help them win. Also, if he's fired, he will be replaced; along with all the other staff openings. You have no idea who we'll hire and especially what color they areI was waiting for the a Radio comment. Has nothing to w what Im saying. At all.

It matters, homie. I know we don't WANT it to or think it shouldn't, but it does.
Again, find me an all white staff of an elite team? Coaches are really cognizant of these kinds of things even tho their personal politics may not agree w a token or quota hire.
Good. Can't fckin recruit to save his life, I'm tired of having to rely on GT's & Juco's at a crucial Corner spot because he couldn't do a simple job. Dudes like Dean & Delaney had no business playing here.
He's NOT irreplaceable, he's only beloved on this site because he played for the 00-01 Canes.
I know of 2 different DB coaches in HS in South Fla that thought Rumph was a joke, whether yall wanna hear it or not he's not well respected on the scene & gets clowned by a lot of local South fla coaches, which is why he had such a hard time recruiting.
