The effect of this latest coaching circus

[Juancane]

He is coaching where he went to college. He loves it here. He also gets to give his son a job and build up the resume. On top of that he gets complete control and to call his plays. Not sure how much he made at UGA but is probably already set for life. Doubt he wants to go chase a few extra dollars somewhere else and have to deal with all the headaches. A lot of these places are having to pay their 4th or 5th choice all this money because nobody wants to deal with all the issues that comes along with those jobs. One of those schools just bullied their way out of paying a guaranteed buy out.

the OP didn't say he was chasing any other money. He said we'd have to give him a raise at some point, which is correct and will be earned. Thats all he was getting at.

Let's run through the coaches real quick -


MR - On a mission to win a Title here, Not going anywhere

Jon Richt - Not Going anywhere

Thomas Brown - Loves MR, is still developing as a coach, and has an OC title here - Not Going Anywhere

Ron Dugans - FSU does scare me, but is a Richt guy, and my guess is we would match FSUs offer

Hartley - Still developing, Not Going Anywhere

Kool - has an assistant HC title - Not Going Anywhere

Mike Rumph - Cane - Not Going Anywhere

Banda - still developing - Not Going Anywhere

Manny Diaz - thought Miss St would make a run, but they hired Penn States OC already, maybe FSU but I'd think they want someone with HC experience. A school like UCF or USF could be intriguing for Manny, but I just don't see him making that move now.

---Bottom Line - Manny's a Miami guy and possible HC in waiting here after Richt (4-5 more years). Miami gives him the ability to recruit the athletes that fit perfectly in his system and he has the best DL coach in America.

Wasnt Cristobal a Miami guy? I just dont think that intangible really carries any weight.

It def carries weight when Miami is the Miami it should be.

Maybe not when Al Golden is your head coach and we were coming off a 7-5 season

Cristobal dipped because Alabaga offered him more than the $7.50 an hour plus tips he was getting from the previous regime at UM.

It's going to cost Miami mucho money. Richt was at the standard just two years ago. Are you guys seeing what these new hires are getting?

In any case, Miami should be doing a better job at fundraising, frankly. There are so many fans in the S. Fl area to not hold more events for football funds is absurd.

Richt got his start in coaching under Bobby Bowden and it sure seems like Bobby is a guy he still looks up to. I think he wants to be what Bobby was at FSU, here at Miami. He's not a circus guy and I genuinely think he and his family really love it at Miami.
