No Fedora is a good thing!

If Fedora did such a good job that he gets poached after one season, it means we probably won the Coastal and had a great season.

It also means we’d land a great class.
It also means Manny made a great hire.

So yes, the way Saban and Meyer don’t care about losing coordinators, if we want to be elite, we shouldnt either. I want dudes killing it so much that programs are banging down their door to make them head coaches.
It also makes the job more attractive, which means we have a better chance of landing another good OC. Our fan base wants all the coaches to be like Kirk Ferentz.

Alabama is head and shoulders above every other program in the nation. They're constantly replacing coordinators and assistant coaches because every year their guys get poached. That's what happens when you win all the time, other teams will try to hire your staff.
 
This exactly, we need people who wanna rebuild the U, not their career.

Yes, we need missionaries. Mother Theresa and St. Francis of Assisi are going to rebuild the U into a great football powerhouse!

FFS....

No. We need assasins like Urban Meyer who will do anything for their own glory.

JFC, you think Jimmy Johnson and Howard built this program up out of some sense of selfless service?

Alright, you guys enjoy this thread. WTF???? As you were, I'm out.
 
I initially was really hyped because I think he's a great coach and offensive mind, and he's at the level we need here at Miami!

However; I just can't see the guy staying for more than a year, two max if everything goes as planned. He's already been a HC, so you know he still aspires to prove himself in that respect.

Miami needs to be a destination job, not a stepping stone! If Manny is successful, he will be here a long time, this is his dream job!

We need young, enthusiastic, smart, hard working guys who are willing to stay 3-5 years and build this program yet, I think Manny needs to find guys willing to commit to the U and not just the ones looking to raise their national profile.

I love his hires for S&C and D Coordinator, exactly what we need!


It needs to be the polar opposite of a destination job for coordinators. Look how many guys filter through highly successful programs to become HCs or even to the NFL.

I'll take two years of Fedora ore even Applewhite crushing it then moving on to his own gig again every single time.
 
a coordinator only staying for a year or two means you are bringing in top level coaches and is generally a good thing not a bad thing. See bama for a reference.
where not bama though, we just can't replace not just good but great assistants like bama. Bama is not built either, they are already at the top, we need people who will take us all the way to the top, not just elevate us a little bit than dip.

Ata medaber Evrit?

Hah! I knew that would get me in trouble. I only know a few of the fun words. Kind of like Spanish/spanglish. I can kvetch a little and usually know enough to know when someone is talking crap about me in front of my face, but can't hold down a conversation. I really do appreciate the language and use many of those phrases in my every day life. I'm not ****** so my wife was like "what the ---? where did that come from?" the first time she heard me toss out some Yiddish. I just shrugged my shoulders and was like "I'm from Miami, I thought everyone knew what that meant..." It primarily comes out when I get frustrated, which is what this "Miami jobs are for life" line of "reason" does to me.

Work bring you there? That's a bucket list place to visit for me.

BTW, usually it only SEEMS TO YOU like you are more fluent. Everyone else has no idea WTF you are saying and their just nodding and smiling means "ok, ok, go away now, please." :LOL::very-drunk:
 
Ok. Your point?

I get continuity. In the here today and gone tomorrow mindset of coaching staffs, need to take what comes.

Fedora appears to be unwilling to settle for less than a HC position, and his buyout probably enables that choice for the next few years. IF he had taken Miami job and was poached next year, that likely meant very good things happened for Canes in 2019 campaign.

Going with Applewhite or others doesn't guarantee they stay either.

Hahaaa....on Thursday night (this is the equivalent to your Friday night) everybody understands everyone. Vodka and Red Bull is an institution here.

Real talk bro...you have a place to stay here should you decide to cross off that item off your bucket list.
 
When your assistants are not getting plucked for better jobs you know you are hiring the wrong guys...unless they don't want to leave like the Clemson DC

And Clemson OCs. Clemson has not had a coordinator change in 5 years.

Kirby was Saban's DC for a long time.

Only our fans would think stability, by itself, is a bad thing.

But to answer your question, the wife is Israeli, which is what brought me here.

Sounds like a good time, man. Appreciate the invite. I'll get there one day, but the first born is on the way, due in April, so it's probably gonna be a while.

I'm just assuming here, so don't hate me, but I gotta imagine Israeli women are a bit of a breed unto themselves. There's some good looking women over there, but they have to be pretty tough too, like in a good way. Anyway, hope you are enjoying it over there, it's always hard moving away from home for someone.

They call them Sabra, which is a cactus. Israeli women are notoriously gorgeous, but they are hard and painful on the outside, yet soft on the inside. Thats the sabra.

And mazal tov on the new baby, brother. Get that Cane gear ready.

I heard that! First off, nothing better than a woman like that, never heard the word (aside from the Hummus), love it. Nothing like a challenge and an equal to keep life interesting.

Second, dude, that is why I need this team to win so **** bad. My wife is like 4th generation Clemson fan and her whole family is Clemson fans. She's like the only one in her family who didn't actually go there. I can't go through life with a kid who likes that ******* team! I can't. I won't. The Canes need to win so I have a chance of raising this little girl right!
