Randy Shannon is our best choice for DC

Good/Great DCs don't have to be LB coaches for 5 years.

When Muschamp got fired from UF, there was a bidding war for his services. When Shannon was fired, he had to take LB gig at TCU.

This would be false. There was a huge bidding war for Randy Shannon for DC but he turned those jobs down. You have to give Randy credit. He fully admitted that he was not ready to be a head coach when he took the job. Unlike Golden and Weiss who for some reason believe their scheme and coaching philosophy would work if people just brought into it, Randy decided that he would learn from other programs.

With his desire to be a head coach again this was a good move on his part.

Dead.:monkey-serious:

Better than Golden, Weiss and Muschamp out their stealing checks. Ransy at least understood his faults and decided to work on improving

IMO the top 3 DC's that would fit at Miami is
1. Don Brown
2. Charlie Strong
3. Dave Aranda
If it was up to me I would have Aranda as DC for 1 year, then when he gets hired away to be a HC, snatch up Charlie Strong from Texas when he gets fired

Strong just ended the season by beating Baylor, he's not getting fired anytime soon.

But how tf is Arandas overrated *** a better candidate than Randy Shannon?

You know Shannon doesn't call the plays for UF, right.

And for the record, Charlie Strong had ANOTHER losing season. So his job is totally secure and he isn't getting fired anytime soon.
 
What makes anyone think Shannon would consider coming back. Didn't he sue or threaten to sue to get the money Miami owed him when he was fired? I would think he would have a bitter taste about coaching at Miami again. Regardless, I don't want him back.
 
Enough with bringing back familiar faces and dirty laundry. You people do realize that there are other people in the universe that did not go to UM. And here is a well kept secret outside of MiamiDade....they all kick our *** day in and day out.

New President and new AD since all of that took place.
 
At this point you have to be trolling, no way you really believe that.

He turned down DC positions at

Maryland
Texas
Washington
Louisville
East Carolina
Tennessee

Just to be clear, your assertion is that Randy Shannon had the opportunity to become a coordinator at five different BCS schools, but he decided he'd rather be a lowly position coach and earn roughly a 1/3 of the potential annual salary?

Haha, leave his idol (cough relative cough cough) alone.

Yes, of course he turned down a those jobs because he wanted to refine his craft.
 
Some of these same people told us Butch was turning down other jobs while waiting for Miami to open. There is a reason Randy still isn't a DC

He was being paid by UM for most of those years

You overplayed your troll hand.
 
Can coach LBs as well.

Randy Shannon - DC / LBs
Coach Kawasaki - DL
Coach Raymond - co DC / DB

Best defense in the country in 2 years.
Player Bio: Randy Shannon - University of Miami Hurricanes Official Athletic Site

Shannon has produced defenses that rank among the best in the history of the program. Despite a 7-6 record in 2006, the defense ranked seventh in the country in total defense (allowing only 255.5 yards per game), fourth in rushing defense (a team-record 67.9 yards a game) and 13th in scoring defense (15.5).

In 2005, Shannon's aggressive 4-3 scheme led the nation most of the season in nearly every category and finished No. 1 in pass defense (152.17 ypg) and pass efficiency (89.48 rating), fourth in total defense (270.08 ypg) and scoring defense (14.25 points), and 23rd in run defense (117.92). He was named Defensive Coordinator of the Year by Rivals.com.

In 2004, Shannon's defense ranked ninth in the country in pass defense despite having three new starters in the secondary. The UM defenses in 2002 and 2003 led the nation in fewest passing yards allowed, and the 2003 unit was fourth nationally in pass efficiency defense (96.16 rating), while finishing second in the nation in total defense (257.5 ypg). The 2003 Hurricanes also ranked among the national leaders in scoring defense (fourth, 15.1 ppg).

His 2002 unit led the nation in passing yards allowed (119.7 ypg) and in pass efficiency defense (83.91 rating), while finishing seventh in the nation in total defense (285.0 ypg), all of which was accomplished with an entirely new starting unit in the defensive secondary.

In 2001, Miami led the nation in turnover margin by forcing a school-record 27 interceptions and 45 turnovers. Miami defenders allowed a national-best 9.4 points per game, led the nation in pass efficiency defense (75.60 rating), ranked second in pass defense (138.2 ypg) and was sixth in total defense (270.9 ypg). The 2001 Hurricanes allowed just 12 touchdowns (seven rushing, five passing) and scored seven touchdowns of their own. Shannon's defenses have been ranked in the top 10 in turnover margin twice and led the nation in 2001.
Staff is this record number dv ?
 
Has to be a record number of negs. Unprecedented.

Cityboy4life seems to be intimately connected with both Randy Shannon's AND Andreu Swasey's career and life decisions. LMFAO.

Also love Charlie Weak. Hmmmm wonder why. Funny how former and current white coaches aren't defended with such vigor.....
