Mario’s Replacement

[IbzRlz]

Who are they? Or are you relying on @Memnon to hire UMs next coach?

@Memnon would most likely do a better job hiring the next coach then that sorry *** AD Rad

We seem to have a good sized contingent of fans who don’t think Mario is the guy.

Honest question for discussion, if you got your wish and he was fired who would you want to take his place and why? I’m asking for specific names and what they bring to table and why they’d be an upgrade. Some things to consider…

-Has to be realistic. Don’t list Kirby Smart or another coach at an established power we’d never get.

-What would UM be willing to pay?

-Risky up and comer or established coach?

-Can a coach navigate all the BS that comes with coaching at UM? Local handlers, small alumni base and fan support, the dynamics of S Florida recruiting, etc.

Appreciate the genuine discussion (although I know I likely won’t get it here lol)

We could always get another Blake James.

No real difference as they both suck

The Grinch, he stole my Christmas playoff birth for our beloved Canes. He can come here, steal someone else's, and our Christmas dreams can ring true next year.

I think Don Shula would kill it in college. We should throw $10 million a year at him and see if we can get him back into coaching.

I am a supporter. But! I hope he does better with the academic side. Mario was the obvious choice. Unfortunately. Obvious is not always correct.

Personally, regarding the academics — one of the biggest surprises to me was how much perception outweighs reality. There are strong and weak professors everywhere. I found UMiami’s honors program to have professors just as talented as Ivy League professors.

Not sure how much sway will change the falling perception, but, I feel small college class sizes is the biggest blessing possible. Football success will always boost the gpa/sat scores of the incoming freshmen class profile. There is no reason why UMiami should not mirror the standing of USC and NYU.

As far Mario, i wanted him when we hired Manny; so I believe it was the right move. Although I was a bit nervous in between years 2 and 3, I feel really good about the situation now.

Ultimately, Mario won’t and can’t win over the supermajority of the fanbase until he strings together multiple seasons with double digit victories.

I guess im the only dumb *** who thought this was an interesting post lol Jamey Chadwell would be my answer.

Freshman mistake

JFC this has to be the only fan base that wants to talk about a new head coach after a potential 11 win season.

they call it being a realistic fan

You understand the dynamics in play with the Miami job?

If Mario is at a point of termination fold program. The big boosters for Miami are tied to Mario. Cut off that funding and we are low level p4 program.

You need money and talent to win and be a top 12 type team.

I was told on CIS thats a false narrative Miami fans made up in their head lol i was told they'll just keep putting money out for every coach moving forward even if the guy THEY hand picked failed. smh

Then Miami is not a serious athletic program, so none of it really matters.

@Hurry-Cane - Pete Carroll

Sources: Carroll interested in Bears' coaching job

Seahawks Super-Bowl winning coach Pete Carroll has expressed interest in the Bears' head coaching job and would like to return to the sideline next season, league sources told ESPN.

This is unequivocally not true. You don't go from 20+ years of nothing to national title contender all at once.

Nahhh he was supposed to takeover a **** show for the past n have us competing for championships immediately cause we're Miami.

 

[TrumpyCane]

Manny Diaz.

If Manny Diaz puts together 8 wins at Duke next year and Norvell does another stinker TrumpyCane thinks FSU will hire him

Too broke to afford anyone else

The issue is simple. Miami just had the best offense we've had in forever. Miami plays in a below average conference and we managed to **** it all away for pop tarts. You tell me why I should be all giggly for next year.

The problem with our current guy is he doesn’t bring anything to the table outside of supposedly being an ace recruiter.

He’s not X’s and O’s, he’s not a great game planner, he doesn’t manage the team well, he doesn’t have any feel for the game and he doesn’t get his teams ready.

The one thing he is supposed to do great is beginning to look very average the further away from any signing day we get. His 23 class is looking like a bust, we got bodied on the trail this year for HS croots, and he’s not really the ace recruiter he was made out to be.

A better question is this…..what does he bring to the table for 8 mil a year? What advantages do we have with him?

NIL is a major equalizer to the “recruiting ace” component which I think is now lessened as a factor accordingly. As long as there’s a solid NIL budget, better off getting someone who can identify, develop and coach up talent.
