Most Local high School Coaches want...............

I'm a Herman fan, even if he would be an awkward fit with Kaaya. He is a great choice. No argument from me on that one.

But if someone like Butch or Stoops came in and wanted to keep Coley, I'd support the move.

not to be glib but....why?

Because acquiring quarterbacks is one of the most important things in football.

That's the reason Auburn won a championship. That's the reason Florida State went from getting smashed by Florida to winning a championship in one year. When Urban Meyer was recruiting Tim Tebow, he said that missing on him would've set his program back ten years.

Coley's ability to identify and land quarterbacks cannot be underestimated. And I think he is a better coordinator than he showed under Golden.

I would love to land a guy like Herman who installed his own system. But if the right head coach wanted to keep Coley, I would understand and support the move.

D I typically value your opinion highly but I think you are seeing through Kaaya-colored glasses here. I don't think there's anything to give us hope that he's actually a better coordinator than what he has showed.

Perhaps he could be recruiting coordinator / QB coach. But I would want someone else calling plays.

No Mario. I can see the dumbfounded look on his face trying to manage the clock at the end of a quarter and the brown stain growing at the seconds tick away in the 4th. I just don't see that guy as a head coach yet.

1. Butch 2. Schiano 3. Chud 4. Herman

I think the first 3 surround themselves with great staff members. All 3 are proven(if you don't think Chud would out coach the vast majority of the DC's we face you need at cat scan) and Herman is the long-term play. Might see some growing pains.

I agree with D$ on Coley. His ability to identify an successfully recruit QB's is a big value add. Learning under Chud or another seasoned OC should round-out his overall coaching skills(X's & O's/strategy, identity, set ups etc etc...)

Go Canes!

Thanks for the response - understood. Not sure I agree completely, but I understand.
 
WHAT THE **** HAS MARIO CRISTOBAL DONE IN HIS CAREER TO DESERVE TO BE THE HEAD COACH AT MIAMI?!
 
These local high school coaches are ****** idiots then.

Cristobal is the worse possible choice, followed by Chud and Schiano.
 
I'mf we hire Cristobal meaning he would give Miami a discount wouldn't that open up more money to pay for better assistants like let's say an
Ed Oregeron for defensive coordinator, Kevin Patrick for dline, bring back barrow, and move hurlie brown to db coach or outlier with Ed reed at db coach.
On Offense he might keep coley since they are cool, keep beard, Scott, and Tim ice Harris. Would we be ok with this? Miami wouldn't miss on anyone in south Florida

mario & coley LOL. if that happens ill be picking a new team.

If there's ever a chance prove he can do something different than what he showed under Golden, it's the next games (when Kaaya returns).

In my view, there's nothing to indicate that he's a top playcaller. If we're going to keep him, I'll pray for improvement.
 
I need to check out for the next month and check back in when the hire is made. All this talk of Mario is chapping my ***. I know it's still early but the buzz around this guy is unwarranted and I'm afraid the powers that be will hire him.

I have no idea why anyone would want him.

You can tell the Canes fans without college degrees because they are the ones who think local recruiting ties matter. It's like CLOCKWORK.

Any time a person mentions "understands south florida" or "local recruiting ties", it is a 99.9% safe bet they do not have a college (and possibly high school) degree.

Florida public schools are a ******* joke, and there are a LOT of dumb people that root for this team. They simply can't understand what actually has worked here. It has NEVER been recruiting first. Ever.
 
Why would anyone be OK with keeping Coley?

I'm OK with keeping Coley with the right head coach.

His one skill (identifying and signing great quarterbacks) is a major one. It can be the difference between good teams and championship teams. I also think he would be a better coordinator without Golden trying to protect D'Onofrio's defense.

Everybody loves Jedd Fisch because they never saw him coaching Gray Crow and Preston Dewey. And as great as Butch was at identifying talent, he left behind a complete mess at the quarterback position. We cannot discount Coley's skill in that area.

What good is Kaaya with Coley as his OC? It is completely irrelevant who you bring in if you can't coach them. If all you needed was an elite QB, why the fvck has Miami been horrible with Kaaya?

You have been so off point lately it's really disheartening, to say the least.
 
all we need is someone that will win games and recruit the best players in south florida.

having 'connections' are irrelevant once you're winning and communicating.

Always value your opinions. I respectfully, vehemently disagree with you on this. His skill of identifying high school QBs early is undeniable and quite valuable. But it doesn't outweigh how much of a liability he is in every other facet of being an offensive coordinator.

Coley has signed one great quarterback. He wisely coveted Lawson and landed an early verbal from him, but couldn't keep him committed. Some dismissed Lawson's decommitment at the time because we landed Kaaya in the previous cycle, but we have absolutely nothing behind him as we all witnessed firsthand last Saturday.

Coley, Golden, and co. wanted Malik Rosier instead of Treon Harris to fill the second QB slot in the '14 class. The staff changed their minds about Harris with a couple weeks left in that cycle, but by then it was too late. Rosier has barely played, but after being redshirted for a year he doesn't look like a D1-caliber player.

Situations like the one Ohio State had last year, where they had such great QB depth that they didn't miss a beat when down to their third stringer, are obviously outliers. But if Rosier had to start for the rest of the season, we wouldn't win another game and this is Coley's third year on the job. That's not only because Rosier looks so bad, but also because we're at a schematic disadvantage each and every week with Coley as our OC.

I don't remember Fisch as fondly as others for the exact reason you mentioned. A quality staff, like one led by Tom Herman or Justin Fuente, could dramatically improve our gameday coaching, player development, and presumably identify and sign talented QBs. They've both done it before (Barrett and Lynch, respectively).
 
South Florida is known for having the worst football coaching in the country and our dumb BOT will listen to these idiots.

The majority of south florida football coaches are attention seekers who know little about the intricacies of the game.
 
Schiano is the more realistic choice for the BOT and Admin. I have full confidence Schiano can turn things around immediately. Just don't believe my man Butch will have a chance with the decision makers. Because I know Mario, or any other decent coach for that matter, is 5 wins better than sorry as Al and 15 better recruits, I would not be upset if they choose Mario. I was much better after college and Mario's got a Masters in coaching at Bama now, so he'll be successful at the U.
 
Why the **** would anybody care what these local coaches think? Most of them can't even run a high school program properly and we expect them to know who should run a major D-1 program?

I am not sold on Schiano, either. You dont exactly see schools lining up to hire him.

I'd take him, but only as the DC. Nothing more at the moment.

Mario? Pass. I can't follow a guy who has done absolutely nothing.

And don't give me that FIU **** -- Al Golden has a better resume than him and we know how that ended.

Butch, Herman, Fuentes, Hue.

I'd consider Jeremy Pruitt too.
 
I am not on the Mario train but I keep reading we need an x and o guy. Please tell me which great head coaches are considered great x and o guys? I have never heard Jimmy, or butch or Carroll etc being mentioned as great x and o guys. Coaches are ceos. Their best attribute is hiring the right assistants and providing direction of the overall philosophy of the organization. Ed reed had played at the highest Level and did you see how he characterized the job of the head coach. the greatest common denominator of a great coach is great players and great assistants.
 
The only reason Schiano is not coaching is he's still getting paid by the Bucs. Wanted a year off, and is taking his time. He'll be back on the field somewhere next fall.
