My favorite Miami asst of all time was WRs coach and legend Hubbard Alexander who coached under Jimmy. Hubbard was black but back in the day I guess color was secondary to your ability to perform. When I was growing up again coaching ability mattered not some identity politics bullshyt this generation thinks deserves entitlement because of skin color or gender.

interesting that hubbard alexander never got a chance to be OC or Head Coach. Probably had nothing to do with the color of his skin. I'm sure it was just a coincidence that there were so few opportunities for black coaches back then.

I'm still ****ed about the Chafie Fields TD in 99 or 2000, forget which year. Rumph can go.

I’ll argue that that was Ed Reed’s mistake and not Rumph until my last day. I’ve almost come to blows with friends over this.
 
It goes like this, if you get rid of him, replace him with somebody better. If your just getting rod of him because hes bad at recruiting and getting somebody that's not even an upgrade than don't get rid him. Just make sure whoever replaces him is a significant upgrade.
 
Only positive to replacing Rumph is if Manny does so with Fran. And that’s because he’s a better coach AND recruiter than Mike currently is. Doesn’t mean that Rumph can’t get better in the long haul. It just means that if you’re going to replace Rumph, it better be with someone who’s better overall. Otherwise, what’s the point?

NorthEast-

In the 80s and 90s UM's main recruiting rival in Dade/Broward was FSU. They were both playing the speed game with undersized players. It wasn't until the success of those programs that entire conferences began to set up $hop in SFL. Back then OU and Neb were still running the triple option. The Big10 was 3 yards and a cloud of dust, the SEC was a ground and pound league as well. JJ didn't have those disadvantages because UM ran college football then. JJ was 52-9 in 5 years and played in 3 title games (44-4) his last 4 years at UM. Even Erickson led UM to 2 chips after JJ left for the Cowboys. I agree with you about Davis because he had to deal with the NCAA and the bagmen. He did an incredible job at UM under difficult circumstances. Finally, Howard was the one who really ushered in UM's reliance on speed. JJ put that reliance on steroids.

Although JJ built the program up to where he got his share, even he couldn't totally lock it down. Does Neal Colzie, Reggie Kinlaw, Elvis Peacock, Buster Rhymes, Derrick Thomas ring a bell. Oklahoma, OSU Alabama Notre Dame, etal have been cherry picking Dade and Broward since the early 70s. In fact, thew first national recruit I remember we got that any of the others were after was Lester Williams and a late 70s (Lou Saban). Before then, you'll have to ask somebody else.

Racist *** pieces of **** always looking for someone BLACK to scapegoat, which is why the top notch black kids from South Florida go elsewhere! When the WHITE coaches miss out on prized recruits yall say it's the BAGMAN, but when Rumph is unable to land a Blue Chipper it's because he's a horrible recruiter. Yall know **** well Bama and UGA gave up something to land 5 stars Pat Surtain and Tyson Campbell but the racist in yall won't let let you admit this, just like yall would rather walk through **** with gasoline drawz on before you will admit that Donald Trump is the worst thing since HIV!
