One of the most depressing reads I’ve put myself through.

Flake James continues to demonstrate that he’s a giant pvssy.

It sounds like UM’s President doesn’t give a fvck about sports.

And half the BOT doesn’t care at all about what’s going on.

Gentleman, things are only going to get worse.

all you can do
 
Did anyone really think Manny was going to be fired after this year? That was never going to happen. He will be gone after next year. Blake is another story. The fact they are happy about his fundraising means he probably wont be fired anytime soon no matter how many billboards people put up.
 
Some snipets:

— “As for athletic director Blake James, the trustee said his job is safe.

“He’s done a great job of fundraising, won awards for athletic directors,” the trustee said. “Our student graduation rate is one of the highest in the country.”

— “That trustee said school president Julio Frenk “supports Blake. [Former president] Donna Shalala would fire an athletic director she wasn’t happy with, but Julio would leave it to the board. He’s not a sports enthusiast like Donna was.”

—“I would be surprised if Diaz simply fires Enos, but a parting certainly cannot be ruled out, considering UM’s offensive problems and Enos’ history of changing jobs. I would be surprised if Diaz doesn’t make at least one significant change in some aspect of the program. James does not believe in forcing coaches to dismiss assistant coaches.”

This is why I just laugh , acting mad and posting how bad you’re butthurt means nothing. This has been going on for almost two decades , they don’t care.

Fly your banners , put up your signs and nothing will change.

This *** had a six hour job search and then gave a five year deal to a brand new hc. Which is criminal.

Even funnier Manny played Blake selling him he wouldn’t be interested after he left for Temple. Forcing this twits hand.

He played Blake almost as good as enos did selling manny on he had other teams beating down his door to call plays for them.

We’re f’d, the sooner you realize it the better.
 
Sounds like Blake James has more control than people thought. He isn’t just a puppet. He’s in control of this destiny. Manny should be forced to re-evaluate the staff around him

Not sure how OP reads that article and comes to his conclusion. Personally I thought that article was positive.

Most rational posters realize Diaz wouldn't be let go after 1 season. In all liklihood, not even after season 2, being that he signed a 5 year deal, as stated in the article (also a very valid point that his contract should've been 3 years).

I read the article to say the BOT is unhappy and they want changes on offense. IMO, retaining Blake but hiring a football operations guy like Highsmith would be a welcome happy medium, if the administration is set on keeping Blake. Not sure what more you can ask for.

The Blake James part makes this very negative.

Manny isn’t the problem yet we’re still talking about manny.
