Troubling If True..Thought Al Embraced Our Past?

[OzarCaneSaw]

It's either Alice's sideline or it's not. If it isn't, then get her the **** OFF IT and hire a coach who will demand it be his. Holy **** at these Golden Girls, they're pretty much calling their coRch a cuckold.

Golden Cuts Ties with CB Davis

Jeremy Davis will not be a Miami Hurricane and is now considering UNC, USF and Vandy

January 12, 2011 4:27 pm

Jeremy Davis, the younger brother of former Hurricane All-American Phillip Buchanon, says he will not be at Miami.

And not because he doesn’t want to. But because new head coach Al Golden doesn’t want him.

Golden talked with Davis Tuesday night, which left Davis, who had been firmly committed to the Hurricanes since May 2009, disappointed.

“He lied to me,” Davis said. “I don’t know what’s up with the coach. He was trying to be extra tough on the phone for no reason. He kind of had an attitude with me and my parents. That didn’t go well. My mom is mad, my dad is mad. We have always been all about Miami our whole lives. It seems like he wants nothing to do with Randy Shannon’s players. He wants to bring in who he wants to bring in. He said it’s in my best interest not to go there and basically it wouldn’t matter how good I was that I wouldn’t get to play. That kind of hurts, but you move on with life and you hope the next decision is a good decision.”

Davis, a 6-foot cornerback with blazing speed, starred at Cape Coral his senior year after transferring from Fort Myers. He did not get cleared academically and ended up at Milford (N.Y.) Academy this past season.

He says he’s been cleared academically and will enroll early this semester. He’s currently considering three schools—USF, North Carolina, and Vanderbilt. He has ties to all three with former UM defensive backs coach Wesley McGriff coaching at Vanderbilt; former UM coach Butch Davis, who coached Buchanan, at North Carolina, and a former assistant at USC, who has coached Davis’ cousin at one point.

Florida assistant Aubrey Hill, UM's former recruiting coordinator, has been trying to persuade Davis to Gainesville, but Davis says he's not interested in UF or UM rival Florida State.

“(Golden) said I can’t play at Miami and that I’m not a Miami guy,” Davis said. “I’ve been Miami the whole time. Miami would have been my choice if I wasn’t for the coach. It just didn’t seem right for him that he was giving me attitude for no reason. He lied to me, he lied to my parents.”

Davis said that he’ll go to a school that he feels wanted and somewhere he can play early.

“I’ll still be Miami fan, I still love Miami,” Davis said. “But with the new coach, he and I just aren’t seeing eye-to-eye and if you’re not it’s not going to work out. Period. But there aint no love lost. I wanted to be there. I wanted to make a difference. I wanted to get the ‘U’ back to where it was.”

The timing of Golden's call makes it especially difficult for Davis, who was expecting to start classes at Miami in less than a week when Spring Semester classes start in Coral Gables on January 18th, and now must scramble to find an alternative.

Well, you want to know something. He didn't enroll at UCF in 2011. He signed in 2012 and redshirted. He did scout last year and he is not even on the UCF roster. Maybe just maybe he wasn't going to qualify which is exactly what happened. And maybe just maybe the kid isn't a Division 1 player. Of course he's ****ed. He can attack the university and the university can't comment. And this is not to defend Golden. This is to lay out the status of Jeremy Davis.

 

[hoops156]

PB needs to buy a ticket and get down on field. It would be interesting if Al had jewels to personally escort him off field. If Al manned up enough to do that, then maybe he would deserve some respect. PB has run his mouth more than family should BUT he is a big part of our Cane family; Al is still trying to get in the family.

he doesn't need to buy a ticket. all former players get a suite. he's just being a *****

 

[kendallcanes]

Enough with the rambling. It's fine to hate Golden, but another to spit BS.

Do you know how many players have played for the U in its history? ******* thousands. And you want them all on the sidelines. Come on man. It doesn't happen anywhere. What are you smoking? You think JJ or Howard used to call all the shots? Not even close. Revisionist history.

Al Golden has been here for 4 years. That about as long or longer than any player that has ever played for The U. Yes, he didn't play here, but how many of our coaches did? Randy Shannon (whom I still like), was the only one and he is now hated. This is modern day ball, coaches have an ear for all offers on the table. Name me some of the top coaches in college football that didn't listen to other offers?

This issue isn't about Golden and him turning his back on our past. It's about the Athletic Department and a whiny former player. I didn't hear Phil whining about field access when we played UNC or Duke at home. He wants field access to the hottest show in south Florida on Saturday and he is getting denied like a bunch of others.

idc if he complains about not being on the sidelines, i care that he complains about a ******* SUITE THE SCHOOL GIVES ALL FORMER PLAYERS. romberg goes on the radio every week and he's not *****ing about not being on the field. he's always pumped to tailgate and then sits up in the suite and tries to get mt mckinnie to come back to games all the time.

if he wanted to witness FSU Miami first hand he'd take the suite and just be there and support his school. his version of supporting is throwing personal insults at coaches on twitter like a girl. during FSU miami week, he now has made it about himself and not about the current players. his time is over and he needs to not make it about himself and just support these kids, whether on the sidelines or in a box.

He didn't qualify. Once he did, the offer was no longer honored by Golden. And yeah, maybe he's been **** since, but having played competitive ball, motivation and future outlook means a lot. The guy was offered and the offer was rescinded once he qualified.

There have been times where we've offered a player, he commits, doesn't qualify and has to go off to prep, gets out but goes off to another school. And we get upset about it. Our coaches don't like it. This is what happened in reverse. Golden is just as dishonorable as a player who does the same. Difference though is that what Golden did hurts recruiting and allows opposing coaches to point to him taking back that offer and use it to negative recruit.

 

[bacane]

Bull****. Golden had every right to do what he did - and he had the balls to do what most coaches do on a regular basis. Kid was recruited by prior staff, obvious academic issues and ultimately deemed not Miami caliber. In this case, Al's judgement has proven 100% correct.

PBuc and Golden did not start off on the right foot as he told his half brother to look else where and cut him from the 2011 recruiting class.

January 12, 2011 4:27 pm

Jeremy Davis, the younger brother of former Hurricane All-American Phillip Buchanon, says he will not be at Miami.

And not because he doesn’t want to. But because new head coach Al Golden doesn’t want him.

Golden talked with Davis Tuesday night, which left Davis, who had been firmly committed to the Hurricanes since May 2009, disappointed.

“He lied to me,” Davis said. “I don’t know what’s up with the coach. He was trying to be extra tough on the phone for no reason. He kind of had an attitude with me and my parents. That didn’t go well. My mom is mad, my dad is mad. We have always been all about Miami our whole lives. It seems like he wants nothing to do with Randy Shannon’s players. He wants to bring in who he wants to bring in. He said it’s in my best interest not to go there and basically it wouldn’t matter how good I was that I wouldn’t get to play. That kind of hurts, but you move on with life and you hope the next decision is a good decision.”

Davis, a 6-foot cornerback with blazing speed, starred at Cape Coral his senior year after transferring from Fort Myers. He did not get cleared academically and ended up at Milford (N.Y.) Academy this past season.

He says he’s been cleared academically and will enroll early this semester. He’s currently considering three schools—USF, North Carolina, and Vanderbilt. He has ties to all three with former UM defensive backs coach Wesley McGriff coaching at Vanderbilt; former UM coach Butch Davis, who coached Buchanan, at North Carolina, and a former assistant at USC, who has coached Davis’ cousin at one point.

Florida assistant Aubrey Hill, UM's former recruiting coordinator, has been trying to persuade Davis to Gainesville, but Davis says he's not interested in UF or UM rival Florida State.

“(Golden) said I can’t play at Miami and that I’m not a Miami guy,” Davis said. “I’ve been Miami the whole time. Miami would have been my choice if I wasn’t for the coach. It just didn’t seem right for him that he was giving me attitude for no reason. He lied to me, he lied to my parents.”

Davis said that he’ll go to a school that he feels wanted and somewhere he can play early.

“I’ll still be Miami fan, I still love Miami,” Davis said. “But with the new coach, he and I just aren’t seeing eye-to-eye and if you’re not it’s not going to work out. Period. But there aint no love lost. I wanted to be there. I wanted to make a difference. I wanted to get the ‘U’ back to where it was.”

The timing of Golden's call makes it especially difficult for Davis, who was expecting to start classes at Miami in less than a week when Spring Semester classes start in Coral Gables on January 18th, and now must scramble to find an alternative.

Well, you want to know something. He didn't enroll at UCF in 2011. He signed in 2012 and redshirted. He did scout last year and he is not even on the UCF roster. Maybe just maybe he wasn't going to qualify which is exactly what happened. And maybe just maybe the kid isn't a Division 1 player. Of course he's ****ed. He can attack the university and the university can't comment. And this is not to defend Golden. This is to lay out the status of Jeremy Davis.

He didn't qualify. Once he did, the offer was no longer honored by Golden. And yeah, maybe he's been **** since, but having played competitive ball, motivation and future outlook means a lot. The guy was offered and the offer was rescinded once he qualified.

There have been times where we've offered a player, he commits, doesn't qualify and has to go off to prep, gets out but goes off to another school. And we get upset about it. Our coaches don't like it. This is what happened in reverse. Golden is just as dishonorable as a player who does the same. Difference though is that what Golden did hurts recruiting and allows opposing coaches to point to him taking back that offer and use it to negative recruit.

PB needs to buy a ticket and grow up. In the real world - obviously that excludes this board - you can politely and professionally disagree with folks, but you only demean and expose yourself when you get into publicly mocking someone or calling them names.

If this was the "real world" or any other industry, discipline, or walk of life....Golden would be the one buying a ticket to this game.

You take his body of work and extapolate something equilvalent or similar to any field and you'd be on the unemployment line.

Gotta love this administration.

FYI, in the real world if you sign a five-year contract - one, which in this case, was later re-negotiated and extended - the company honors it unless there is grievous violation or cause for termination. So neither Golden or our Gator pal, Will Muschamp, would be hitting the unemployment line.

In the real world, donate a building or buy a ticket.

I have no idea what real world you live in...cause in the corporate world most high level executives sign contracts and extensions and get their asses fired all the time. Here's a little secret...when a CEO "retires" and then suddenly pops up as a CEO somwhere else....his *** got fired.

Both those guys will be looking for new employment soon.

Sorry, but don't buy the lame analogy that Golden would find himself in the unemployment line in the real world, short of his getting caught in the supply room with an office boy. And absent a collapse to close out the season, he's guaranteed to be back next season - unless he were to leave on his. So end of case.

Seriously though, can anyone tell me why any visiting team is allowed Alums on the field?
It makes absolutely no sense for a home team to allow that. ESPECIALLY when the home team doesn't even allow their own players on the field!
Also, I'll just add that any Cane in the UM HOF should be able to be on the field when they want to. ****, I almost expect Irvin to be there and to give a little speech before the game.
...ahh, if only I was AD...

When Irvin comes to the games, he sits in the suite!
