The kind of Miami "Fan" that loves Schiano is also the same Miami "Fan" that wants Frank Martin. In other words, they love guys that LOOK the part of being a HC, performance and long term viability be damned. I've said it once, and I'll say it again: We have some of the least knowledgeable fans in the country. It's almost like our fans watch maybe 1-2 games outside of the Miami bubble per year and fall in love with highly flawed, relatively mediocre entities. It's the same crap with Mike Leach and a multitude of other guys that talk tough, but don't deliver. Maybe, not just maybe if you watched the game and paid attention, you'd see that "Muh Football" meatheads are a dime a dozen and you aren't winning anything with those guys anymore, unless you have an OVERWHELMING financial advantage.
Knowledgeable fans hate Schiano because we know that his way of doing things are smoke and mirrors. He watered down the Rutgers schedule, and only started winning once any program worth a **** in the Big East left. He parlayed that little taste of success into an NFL gig, where he was exposed as a complete and utter joke. He's been an assistant since then. Rutgers is desperate and like desperate, poorly managed organizations tend to do, reached out to the one guy that had any semblance of success and begged him to put the band back together. There's only one difference now: Schiano can't feast on a bunch of glorified midmajors anymore. Guess what? You're playing big boy football, and that means you will have to do more than recruit South Florida scraps.
He's unlikable BEFORE you find out that he enabled pedophilia. That's impressively bad when you think about it. He's a POS BEFORE you realize that he looked the other way as a child was raped before his very eyes. The fact that Rutgers rehired him knowing that is all you need to know. It's akin to Louisville rehiring Petrino, despite all the crap he had done.
