Official State Penn job as it relates to Golden Thread

[MadCane]

I have spoken to Butch personally before all of this. The guy is dying to come back to Miami.

He's a different guy now. He's older, a cancer survivor, and has a different perspective on life as all of us do as we get older at any stage of life.

I don't know what he currently capable of. What I do know is that he's the best evaluator of talent I have ever seen, has plenty of coaching connections, and would take this job the microsecond it was offered.

As to how he left, there are two sides to every story. I think most only saw or heard one side. There's another. Regardless, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle and water under the bridge from my vantage point.

I would interview Chud, Butch, Petrino, and Schiano. Pick one and move on.

How is he different? No longer a lying weasel, or no longer having panic attacks when faced with difficult in-game coaching decisions? Or both?

Things change and sometimes on a moment's notice. That happens in any facet of life either personally or professionally. You either can recognize how much he did for Mii and vice-versa or you won't. I could give a ****. My only point is that he, along with a few other guys I mentioned, merit consideration.

Aside from that, we can agree to disagree.

Don't need the lecture from you about life lessons, or cancer survivors. It is much more likely that he is who he is and suckered you in, being the lying weasel that he is. Its what he does best. You can believe it or not, I couldn't give a ****.

Lots of short memories here. Times have changed since 2001. Time to move on and find a fresh perspective, instead of hiring the retread that is Botch Davis. There are plenty of coaches out there that can evaluate talent, by the way, and could do so without ****ing themselves on the sidelines when faced with a 4th and 1.

Butch + Coley on the recruiting trail???

 

[bbcane]

Butch head coach. Keep coley oc. Keep barrow and brown and Carroll and maybe kehoe.= PROFIT

@AndySlater: Source: Al Golden to inform team today that he is leaving to Penn State

Hopefully he informs the team he's leaving and then they offer the job to Munchak or Franklin

 

[grogz26]

Can someone explain Chuds appeal?

 

[djciombor]

What about Munchak? Any thoughts?

No thanks. He'd just wait a few years for the Penn State job to open up once they realize what they're getting in Golden and D'Onofrio.

:ibisroflmao:

Golden might be giving us a big "F U" on the way out the door. he will leave the florida guys, coley, barrow, hurlie, art, all out of the loop.

Matt Porter ‏@mattyports 4m
Multiple upper-level boosters I spoke with say they haven't heard from UM regarding Al Golden's status.

A #Canes assistant said AG shot down rumors Friday in a text. Asked if he believed AG's message, asst said ... 1/2

Matt Porter ‏@mattyports 1m
#Canes AD Blake James said he and Al Golden "communicate regularly" but declined to discuss personnel matters.

Can someone explain Chuds appeal?

He played at Mia. And other than that he is average in my book

Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz
Golden has spoken several times with UM administration in past 2 days but hadn't informed them of decision as of couple hours ago.

“@AndySlater: Source: Al Golden to inform team today that he is leaving to Penn State” <- I have no info, but I do know Andy is trustworthy.

 

[Canesfan1899]

hire needs to be made ASAP, NSD is a month away

Can't rush the hire to save a couple kids, make sure you have the right guy that's going to get things fixed.

Yay, new thread

If butch Davis is not given the keys to this Ferrari I will be beside myself

The architect of the best team there ever was is essentially begging for the job
