Strangely enough, this exact set of comments has been made by posters on this board over and over and over again for years and years and years.
dead on man, dead on, we been on same page the last 15 yrsEVERYTHING and I do mean EVERYTHING in that post has been preached upon by myself and others on this board for over 15 years going back to Grassy.
Our un-athletic department is one of the biggest administrative jokes on the collegiate circuit.
Until the disease isn't cured, the symptoms are just going to keep recycling with different names attached. Right now it's Manny Diaz, in a few years he'll have a different name with the same results.

Maybe so but we can be competitive. $4 million to buy out Manny from Temple where he was on staff for 3 weeks. If you are paying Manny around $4 million right now, you think you cannot drop another couple of million for a better HC and staff? The opportunity costs of buyouts of firing your staff every 4 or 5 years justifies the investment. Attendance alone benefits with competent coaching and a competitive team.Blah blah blah. "Miami has all the money". Bull****.
The difference is that Bama, LSU, Clemson, Ohio State spend 2x as much as Miami does/can spend on football and then you add in alumni bases that are 5-10x the size of Miami and its a losing battle. This isn't 1980 or 2000 any more.
The thing people realize is that the BOT doesn't want a real AD. The clown show isn't a bug, it's a feature.Yup.
Anyway, Miami is broken and rotten from its very core. Playing whack-a-mole with every crappy new coach we hire gets us nowhere.
Blake has to go. The people with any sway on the BOT need to hire a legit AD and get out of his way and let him put an end to the amateur hour circus they're running over there.
Otherwise we'll be having this same convo in 3/4 years.
Spurrier's talk didn't matter. They still lost to a 3-win team with a freshman QB.Some things have to stay within the family. My source who would have been part of the solution and I think that has been proven here multiple times. Believe what you choose to believe, my guys know what they are talking about. Spurrier and my relative who both won a prestigious trophy, talked at halftime of the Gates game last night and Steve said “that is the worst effort I’ve seen at any level in my life,” I’m the same guy that got mocked here because I praised Ohio State and Bama for their PROGRAM S. We can only wish.

Just curious do you have any idea what Alonzo’s approach what have been and what was discussed?EVERYTHING and I do mean EVERYTHING in that post has been preached upon by myself and others on this board for over 15 years going back to Grassy.

No idea....but I'd be willing to bet the fact his hiring met resistance means he was out for change.Just curious do you have any idea what Alonzo’s approach what have been and what was discussed?
No. I don't.Just curious do you have any idea what Alonzo’s approach what have been and what was discussed?
Enlighten us.Just curious do you have any idea what Alonzo’s approach what have been and what was discussed?
To add on to your point there has been constant turnover with coaches the past few years. How do we expect to develop kids with this happening.This is the unfortunate reality of our situation and hopefully yesterday opened everyone's eyes and we can stop deluding ourselves with TuRnOvEr ChAiN 8-2 tHoUgH bRo!
This whole ******* thing goes far beyond firing some lame *** coaches. Why? So we can replace Blake baker with the bartender?? So we can fire Manny next year and Blake James puts maybe 3 more hours of effort than his previous attempt and hires Charlie Strong?? There isn't a single person above them that can identify what a qualified coach at the university of Miami SHOULD look like.
Actually, you don't get it clown.Still dont get it do you. How much would it cost to hire a jimmy Johnson before he became jimmy Johnson? Identifying a talented coach is the key. You're just a hard headed *** dude who not only doesn't know what he doesnt know but you don't ***** listen.
Regardless of that simple fact Miami has money regardless of what some below avg college degree carrier says
All of that takes a lot of money. When butch left he was negotiating to be paid top 3 of college football coaches. Times have obviously changed. We used to be the haves and now we are the have nots. Don't think we can ever truly compete with the big boys again.
