so he can continue to recruit and have contact with recruits.

It wont mean anything beyond that. BUt it help help UM have a voice to respond to all of the noise being sent from rival programs towards our commits.

i think butch will be hired soon. sileo is claiming butch he telling people he wants back bad.
 
I think most schools only hire an interim head coach when a coach is fired or leaves during the season. Plus why would they want to be the interim head coach when there is a decent chance they would not be retained by the new staff

IMO it would have to be Butch, he's what I would consider a "home run", and would stop any bleeding.

Coley will be out looking for a new job. Barrow is married to this program. No way Coley stays on IMO. He may get hired back, but he isn't going to hang around for a couple of weeks when he doesn't know if the future coach will keep him on.
 
if butch got hired, coley should stay if butch wants him. one thing about butch, he has a pretty good coaching tree.

After he left a successful program to come back home? I realize there were all those play calling issues people bring up, but it seemed pretty clear to me that he wanted to be back in South Florida.

I'm not hating, just pointing out that Coley won't be sitting on his hands for UM, when there are no assurances he'll be brought back back the new staff. He's trying to advance his career. Barrow is a UM lifer.....he isn't going anywhere. I bet he'll even get an opportunity to interview for the head job.

Just remembered didnt Miami and penn state just sign a deal to play. That would be interesting with golden there.
 
Butch Davis isn't getting hired. Putting aside the perceived NCAA issues from North Carolina (which are probably a disqualifier in Shalala's eyes regardless of the level of Butch's involvement), when was the last "good" year he had as a head coach? 2000? Maybe 2002 with Cleveland? Hasn't won 10 or more games in a season since 2000. Has only coached 4 seasons in college since 2000. Only been a head coach for 8 years since 2000. He has done nothing since he left Miami to warrant being hired. Yet, he would be first choice. Makes sense. They better act quick too because it's either the Miami job for Butch or he's taking a greeter position at Wal Mart on Monday.
 
Butch.....he knows how to win at Miami...PERIOD DOT.
his eye for talent is second to none....both with coaches and players.

Do what it takes to win.....Hire Butch
