John Herron at uf
Agreed on both accounts. Davis is the only official "miss" to UF that bothers me, and he's already in Gainesville and likely enrolled, since classes started January 4th. Maybe he was skeptical the Cooney hire would go through? Dunno.
I get that we're hoping he lands us Pope in 2018, especially since Cooney was his OC, but I'm praying Cooney can help immediamente, with Henderson.
Guys, I've posted about this multiple times over the last 6 months. Florida hired the southridge basketball coach. He's why the Ridge kids (and Henderson) are favoring UF, not Shannon. Cooney v Heron!

yeah, that dude has been mentioned before on this board. From what I gather, though, Cooney is not just a Southridge guy - he's a 7x7 guy that supposedly has relationships with all sorts of kids, not just SR.

Pope and that other kid from Peter's vid the other day both mentioned Cooney and how they wouldn't be where they were without him.
Sounds like of all the guys who have influence of So Fla talent, we got the right one.
I think Pope already in the bag lolol that kid was falling me on twitter lolol I don't follow kids but I was like he must really want to be a cane
if it was about recruiting keep ice harris. btw, northwestern, and central was his old schools, so i hope its more than that.

Wouldn't it b more effective to spread that $60k directly to the recruits rather than paying for a highschool coach? Hartley could do wonders with that cash.
This is Miami's only way to combat the bagmen because lord knows the NCAA would nail us in a heartbeat instead of turning their cheek like they do to other schools.
Exactly we've been in the dark ages too long. Everyone else playing chess and we playing checkers.
I know nothing about this guy, but hope it pays dividends with local recruiting..
Bottom line is the same as always.... win and remake a name for the school or... just fade away

Not to be confused with NJshoreCane
Ice isnt plugged in like that. He has respect as a coach but thats it. Cooney works with 7on7s too so he has had exposure to more guys than just the ones at his school.

The way I see it, we have to overcome the stigma of 10 years of poison induced by Shannon and Golden. They turned us into the laughing stock of the power5... hence the inverted U thrown in our faces. Richt and crew are having to rebuild not only the culture but perceptions. I like what we are doing and IMO this hire is a great one in helping in that regard.
it is a good hire for the position
My concern Davis had to be aware and still left to ***ville
The kids on his team this year was clueless?
