Sleeper Hire To Match Our Talent Pool

First question of interview. In your perspective Brent, why have you been a defensive coordinator since 1999 and not been pursued as a head coach aggressively?
 
No thanks....see:

Will Muschamp
Gene Chizik
Randy Shannon
Ron Zook
Charlie Strong
Luke Fickell
Al Golden
etc.

"Great" defensive coordinators.....terrible head coaches.
 
I hate to break it to you guys, but we're too cheap to get a big name HC. That's just not going to happen. We'll always have to find a sleeper, or someone like Butch who hasn't coached in 5 years.
 
dont get fooled by this last weekend

Venables' D's have been toasted many times over the years
 
No thanks....see:

Al Golden, a great defensive coordinator...:jordan:

I sure hope that we're done ******* around with more coaching experiments. The reality is, you can pay now, or pay later. The latter is not an option for this program. Whoever they hire, better be a great coach, or we can forget about Miami being elite again.
 
No time for sleepers. This next hire is too crucial for a risky hire. Get a slam dunk hire or as close to it as possible. No up in comers, no coordinators, no nonsense.
 
Venables is a very good DC. He played and coached under Bill Snyder at KState and had some amazing defenses at OU. Not sure how he would translate to a head coaching job.

Miami doesn't seem right for him. I think he's waiting for Bill Snyder to retire.

when will u realize its the head guy that mkes these guys look good, its rerely the other way round. take no chnces bbb
 

I absolutely remember his name being mentioned then. So a) it's not a "sleeper" name and b) still don't want.

No, his name was definitely on the initial lists being mentioned by legitimate (that being a relative term) members of the media. Look at the direction we ended up going too. I doubt it was just his agent falsely inserting his name in the mix as that pool of finalists wasn't exactly full of big names.
