My One on One with Shalala

Been saying he would get leeway for weeks.

LOL @ you coming in here to beat your chest.

Feel free to keep spending money on banners and websites. But dude will be here whether we want him or not. What we should be hoping for is an overhaul of the defense. But let's keep pretending the admin is going to be as unreasonable as the fans.

Feel free to keep being a piece of **** racist with a chinstrap and a ***** shaped trombone.

Lulz, that's the best you can do? And you keep calling me racist, but never seem to be able to explain how or why. Not that you could explain it with any sort of eloquence (google it), but you should try.

I've explained it multiple times. You were crying for Shannon to be fired the second he was hired, yet you still support Golden despite worse results. You're a racist punk, an unaccountable scumbag, and a lying piece of ****.

You're calling other fans unreasonable while simultaneously saying that hoping for an "overhaul of the defense" is a realistic possibility?

After four years of utter ineptitude, stubbornness, inflexibility, and reliance on a passive defensive scheme that clearly has no prayer of working here, you actually think for a single solitary moment that Golden won't just replace D'Onofrio with another stooge to run this same exact defense? This is Al Golden's defense after all, not just D'Onofrio's.

Keep dreaming. If Golden isn't gone, this defense stays. It's astonishing that some still don't see this.
golden won't be gone. So what we need is an overhaul of the defense. That's INFINITELY more reasonable than thinking a guy is going to get fired after taking over for randy and having to deal with ncaa investigation which certainly affected recruiting. Like i said, it would have to be like a 5-7 debacle for them to consider firing golden, and I just don't see us dropping 4 of the next 5.

The point is that there's nothing reasonable about thinking Golden changing this defense is a realistic possibility. They continued to run this same scheme after having the 120th-ranked total defense in 2012 and 90th-ranked total defense in 2013, despite very soft schedules. If he wasn't willing to change it after two of the most embarrassing defensive campaigns in the history of the program, then he never will.

This is his defense and he still firmly believes in it based on what we're still seeing on the field as well as his public comments blasting players for failing to execute. The lack of adjustments against Nebraska and Georgia Tech should have been the final straw for even the staunchest Golden believer.
 
Did AQM get a chance to ask the OP any questions? Heard he followed his question to Donna with a motion to suspend the kid for an additional season. "This university is first and foremost an academic institution..."

Hahaha, I kid. Kudos to the OP for at least asking. Her response was as expected as it was meaningless though.
 
Let me start off by saying I am crushed. I knew what her answer would be when I asked her the question, but hearing it crushed my heart. I am so hurt to see the school I love fall this way and knowing we can't do anything.

So in short, I asked her how could we allow for the leadership of our football program to perform at such a mediocre level.

The response?

You guessed it: THE CLOUD

She said how this is the first year technically for this staff because the cloud hasn't let them recruit.

She said we are better than some teams and some teams wish they were as good us.

She said we weren't mediocre.

It's over guys. Unless our next President really cares for athletics, this is it. We are going down. No one cares here and it starts at the top.

I tried, not much we can do. I'm crushed. My heart actually hurts. I have loved this school for so long and so passionately that to hear and watch this hurts.

I had all the stats about our recruiting classes compared to other schools and hearing her say that to me killed anything in me to fight anymore.

Fly all the banners. This thing is over.

Edit: I just want my CanesInsight Fam to rally now. The CanesFam is so clueless as to what's going on these days I don't want anything to do with them.

And you expected her to confide her thoughts and plans to a complete stranger?!? Really?

I have a bridge in brooklyn to sell you, half price if you hate Golden!

If I'm not mistaken OP is the VP of SG at UM or has some type of involvement. You sound dumb.
 
The next UM President will be more of a radical left wing sports hater than Shalala.

Seriously think it will be a transgender or a minority ******* woman.
 
Donna is going to save face, for now. Look, she's a very smart lady who's on her way out. She nor anyone in any influential position is going to come right out and say, YEAH, WE SUCK AND WE'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. That's the only fact we can go by. However, we keep talking about Donna, and Blake but no one is talking about Al and his relationship w/ the Board. Al burned segements of a bridge w/ the board. He put UM in panic mode before NSD had begun...you don't think they don't remember that? Him bombing this year, with so much promise we had at the beginning of this season, may cause his own un-doing. Al may, legitimately, not want to be here as well. I think he really thought things were going to be peaches and cream here b/c of what he did at Temple w/ limited resources, and it's been anything but that, and it's blowing up in his face. Donna can give public lip service, but I don't doubt for one minute that they are not looking at other options behind closed doors, not with the fan's public outburst, and national media scrutiny they are getting. They are getting more scrutiny now than they did w/ "the cloud" actually came in to fruition.

What is the unreasonable part?

When you don't consider how bad randy was and the effects of "the cloud", that's unreasonable.

The effects of the cloud? 9 scholarships over 3 years, 7 of which we'll be able to take this year as a result of nothing more than attrition (Dortch, Hope) and a few players getting kicked out for misconduct (Figs, Blue, Olsen). That's nothing.

As for negative recruiting, coaches from rival schools will be able to do that more effectively if Golden stays than they ever could by mentioning looming NCAA sanctions. All they have to do is point to the highly-ranked players who haven't been developed properly, the passive defensive scheme that doesn't appeal whatsoever to many local studs like Tim Irvin, Golden throwing his own players under the bus to defend his coaching methods, his record against decent or better opposition, and his inability to win a division as pathetic as the ACC Coastal.

USC is dealing with legitimate sanctions. We got shut out on NSD last year on all of our late uncommitted targets well after the NCAA ruling was announced. Golden failing to reel in Dixon, JC Jackson, Valentine, Ross, etc. and losing Powell/Gibbons had nothing to do with any cloud.

I hope so but I have zero faith in her

I don't either...however, in the board, I do have a sliver of faith based upon the position that F.A.G put the team in at the beginning of the season. Even Blake was caught off guard, and once again, lip service was given. There's a reason why Al continued to deflect from being questioned about the PSU job...he was geniunely ****ed he didn't get the gig and now he's forced to coach somewhere he didn't. Our team doesn't lack talent, our team lacks coaching. Al is not even trying at times. There's no fight in this dog and I think they can see that.
 
This is why I think that any future banners should focus on names like Donna or the Board of Trustees instead of golden or dorito. THEY are the ones who need to be publicly shamed. Golden does that to himself every time he takes the sideline against a team in the top 50.

Hum, funny other than 1 attorney general to watch his backside from being blindsided, the only blacks Obama hired (until recently) were women, and that had to a *******. In "his" genius, Obama paid back three constituents in one single stroke. I'm interested to see how this selection shakes out.
