We have to take a step back? Most people that aren’t new or overly bias, believe the best long term success for any program, is for kids to commit to a school, not a coach. FWIW
Thats not the point. I get what the guy is saying. Will it ever happen, NO. Your post is a perfect example.
As fans we criticize kids for making these decisions and leaving a program to transfer, but face it. Lots of these players choose a school because of the coach. That's who the **** recruited them to come. SOOO, when those guys leave for whatever reason, especially if they are chasing money, why would we think the kids should get left behind. This world is nowhere near what it used to be....times definitely do change, and always will. The old people who cant stand change, just have to get over it. You are not going to stop it.
I am a fan, and I wish we didnt have the turnover we have had in the coaching tree, but it is what it is, and when we see kids leaving our program left and right and especially prematurely for the NFL...I dont blame them one bit. There is ZERO consistency at UM, besides that we suck, and a big part of it is consistency. We are NOT a powerhouse anymore, we are school that has to have the time for a legit rebuild, and we need a solid administration supporting a solid coaching staff to do it. Manny Diaz may not be that guy, or maybe he is, its early. For him to change culture at UM, that will not happen in one year. I can promise you this, he is one year ahead of anyone else that would get a chance right now, and if we had to hire another HC next season, it will be at least two years from there before we start to see any change.
