Period.
Richt was hired to run a clean program ... Help raise money for football ... Put a competitive team on the field ... Be a great face to the public ... And win the new coach press conference.
He’s not getting fired, or even feeling a hotseat, because he’s doing what he was hired to do.
Fans want Miami to do whatever possible to be elite. But this school has already decided they aren’t playing the Top 5 program game.
If you have any questions on this, look no further than Lexington, KY. I’m not certain Richt makes more than Stoops. Think about that ... A basketball school pays their head football coach more than Miami pays their flagship sport head coach.
And both coaches are just expected to keep the programs bowl eligible, with the occasional perfect storm occurrence to finish Top 10-15. That’s it. They couldn’t care less if Richt ever makes the playoffs, or even wins the ACCCG.
The sooner folks accept this reality, the better you’ll be.
No, the program ain’t dead. But it’s much closer to being Virginia Tech than it is to being Clemson.
