I've read that HC job at Maryland and South Carolina are better jobs than Miami?

:dahell:
They are. U gotta understand, Miami is a private institution. They can't afford a new stadium let alone modern facilities for their athletes.

Maryland and south Carolina got way more booster money too. These factor in greatly if you're a coach because it makes recruiting a lot easier and your program appealing. Why you think butch Davis left when he did?

Miami just needs a really good coach because Florida has riches of talent.

Butch left to coach the NFL. That is like saying why do you think Spurrier left the gators?

Spurrier proved himself before he left. Butch knew what he had and chose the brown$ over the u.

I love how former players are active on social media and still follow the team.

But this is probably a bad idea.
Remember that nobody at Miami wanted Jimmy Johnson when he arrived.

:francis:
At the very least that would get the Alumni invested into the program again. ...:manny:

Not the best idea though :russ:

Not having those alumni seen on the field is a fukking shame....i'd like to think we wouldn't have been shutout if the players came back to the sideline and saw national champions,super bowl winners looking at them with :scust:

Greg Schiano leads 12 candidates to replace Al Golden at Miami - CBSSports.com

yes!!!! Yes!!!! YEs!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And before y'all want to say this is a cyse, Dodd is pretty spot on when reporting on coaching hires. Nole brethren (and brehettes), even when we lose, we still win.

Greg Schiano leads 12 candidates to replace Al Golden at Miami

Miami football is at a crossroads, just because of … everything.

Al Golden was fired Sunday, and a program lacking revenue, an on-campus stadium or even an indoor facility must find a new coach.

Oh, there are plenty of folks who will take the job. That doesn't necessarily mean they'll succeed. And unless new president Julio Frenk suddenly comes up with $7 million a year for Nick Saban, Alabama's coach isn't even taking his call. (Like that rumor ever had any traction.)

If the likes of Kevin Sumlin are doing anything, they're moving up a level to, say, USC. And Miami is definitely not up a level for the likes of the Texas A&M coach -- not anymore. So unless there is suddenly the financial wherewithal to pry a really big name loose, athletic director Blake James may have to hire someone on the come -- or on the rebound.

Everybody at Miami loves Rob Chudzinski, but Chudzinski hasn't coached in college for 12 years. (He was last the offensive coordinator under Larry Coker.) Greg Schiano would crawl to South Florida on his hands and knees, but would Miami take a defensive guy?

The most recent hires around the country -- almost to a man -- have been offensive coaches. They sell tickets, draw recruits and energize the fan base. Consider Jim McElwain (Florida), Paul Chryst (Wisconsin), Phillip Montgomery (Tulsa), Neal Brown (Troy), Chad Morris (SMU), Mike Riley (Nebraska), Tom Herman (Houston), Justin Fuente (Memphis) and David Beaty (Kansas).

The new guy hired in Coral Gables will join a program that is being criticized on the national level. CBS analyst Rick Neuheisel has called out the lack of atmosphere (and fans) at Sun Life Stadium. One source told CBS Sports that Miami missed all or part of 33 practice days in 2014 due to weather.

Indoor facilities are a big, big deal. The new coach has to make sure one is getting built.

Miami long ago lost the ability to throw up a fence around Broward and Dade counties. Everybody recruits in South Florida. In-state, Florida is rebuilding and Florida State has played for the last two national championships.

Don't you all get the feeling they are going to completely fukk up with the next hire?

They should've never fired Randy Shannon whenever they did. Just like the 30 for 30 documentary was saying, he was still in the process of cleaning up the program & got a raw deal. Oh well, glad he's on our coaching staff bringing in those Miami recruits like Antonio Callaway :ahh:

Miami can get all the same things Maryland and SC can get. The problem is they are not winning. Boosters aren't dropping that dough like they did in the past. They were actually talking about sharing a soccer stadium with that Beckham dudes team not too long ago.

Hiring Schiano is bascially saying "we really want to hire Butch, but we don't want to deal with his bullshyt (NCAA) so Greg will do"

Regardless of who we hire it has to be a guy who's intent is to use Miami as a stepping stone to a bigger gig be it NFL or NCAA. UM won't have the money to out bid either USC's but it's winning potential is either #1 or 2 of the open jobs right now. You spend your 4 year at Um win big and parley that into a NFl job. You don't and you end up as a position coach at Arkansas. :scust:

This "Miami has shyt facilities" thing is bullshyt too. They might be Bama's or USC but it's all brand new building s for the athletes. Incoming freshman have never had it better at Miami. And honestly if UM was winning it wouldn't matter how bad they we're cause all the kids are worried about is #1 making it to the NFL. 2 winning
