In the late 70's and early 80's Miami was floundering just the same. The school ponied up for a proven coach who was expensive. Schnellenberger was his name. We went on a tear that no other team has matched. It is very possible for Miami to become a powerhouse, but they need to not be cheap and hire a big gun proven coach who has a competent and talented staff he can bring with him.
Different era, amigo, though you know that. If we're talking about existing HCs, we can pay second tier, but not top tier. But, the talent sitting here for the next coach is much better than it was for Shannon or the Imposter. And the ACC deal basically eliminating realignment also should help make this job more attractive than it was last time around.
