Next Week and Butch

[ncncanes]

I never though there was a chance that Butch was in the mix ---- I now have hope

I do have one question - if Butch isnt named next week - does that mean we are going in a different direction or (as mentioned) he is the fall back option?
- Naming him next week doesnt really impact the current coaches .... they would have to coach one more game + a possible bowl game
- Biggest advantage is of course is recruiting. Have to think the longer we wait the weaker the next class (or two)

If we dont name Butch in the next 7 to 10 days, we must be looking at someone else - thoughts?

You can't think like an idiot unless you are one, so who the **** knows.

I'm starting think the BOT calls blue ink pink!

Not an unreasonable point of view. I wouldn't say it's for sure we are going in another direction, because who knows with this admin, but it's likely.

For the love of god people. They are going to start the interviews after the games Thanksgiving weekend and continue after the conference championship weekend including B12 final regular season date which includes Strong. Butch would be the only person they likely interview prior to that as he currently is not under contract coaching a team. With Butch in the mix, Korn Ferry will be gathering facts on all of the candidates and digging deep into Butch at UNC. They are in preparation mode until the end of the regular season. Be patient as we are likely in for a wild ride

Obviously anything is possible with these clowns, but it doesn't make much sense to hire the Korn Fairy if you've already made up your mind. Why hire them, then announce Butch a week later when you haven't had time to interview anyone else?

until the new coach is named and it is not Butch your guess is as good as anyone's

Herman's last game is the 27th. You interview him before hiring anyone

 

[Notsince1985]

Herman's last game is the 27th. You interview him before hiring anyone

Houston has the AAC Championship game the next week

 

[CaneandAbel]

Houston has the AAC Championship game the next week

Assuming they beat navy.

Plausible deniability of favoritism.

Claim of Due Diligence.

And, may be vetting/feeling out some of Butch's proposed coordinators.

Strictly as a business decision, Butch is the obvious and best choice. There is no other hire that would have the same impact on the program's production of revenue by exciting the fan base and presenting such a slam dunk for marketing. "Comes back home and will he succeed" stories attract people like bees to honey and are a no-brainer to sell.

If the Miami marketing people couldn't score bullseyes with that one, they need to seriously get into a different line of work.

The bonus is that Butch is by far the best candidate as a football decision as well based on being the RIGHT choice with the RIGHT experience and skills that Miami needs now.


As far as Herman goes, people need to really consider the obvious.

If Herman is leaving Houston, the guy that hired him there, Mack Rhoades, is the new AD at Mizzou and has already announced with Gary Pinkel stepping down, that Mizzou is seriously interested in Herman replacing him.

That certainly gives Mizzou the inside track if Herman makes a move.

That vetting of Butch's proposed coordinators makes a lot of sense. Would work well with Butch having been offered the gig at that lunch meeting, and all his contract terms being met. Hiring the staff is all that's left, and they don't want to pick up any taints.

Thank you for some sanity. Almost 100% of what has been reported up to now is complete bull****.

If you think everyone is waiting - you're outta your mind.

Too many teams already making arrangements. Too many teams looking for coaches, and the last one is guaranteed to get nothing but hind ***.

No one wants to be the "Tail-End-Charlie."

You snooze, you lose.

Look at our choices last time around. A bucket of turds, and we had to pick out which **** we wanted.

Not going to happen again.

Well, you guys are going to be disappointed, because nothing will happen until the first or second week of December.
