Miami is expected to hire Minnesota Corey Hetherman as DC

[The U is back to work]

very curious what happens now on the staff.

Will JT get his own room for the full unit and then hire an off field coach more focused on DTs?

As a Hurricane fan I can say its much easier to roll with the negative on a hire , recruit or the season. The stats show most of this stuff ends badly. Being a mope is the smarter route statistically. But I’ll put my name on this one , I love this hire and I’d be shocked if it flops. This is the best hire Mario has made imo. Which isn’t saying a lot but still.

Finally a fan base ****** ****ed we're taking their guy

Funny enough it’s one of the things I look for. How often are we right about our former players and coaches?

 

[Problem2]

Need that white boy safety in the spring portal

 

[Golsen82]

this guy looks like he has hacked people with an axe and buried the parts in his basement.

Good this defense needs toughness

With Heatherman and the other additions, MC just needs to attend some workshops in game time management and we'll at least play for the ACC CH GM.

I cannot wait until we play ND now!

the game time management thing is a little old. he already hired someone and was improved last year. Our defense killed us.

 

[CanesFan20]

Probably both. This is why I said Memnon would be happy lol.

Can you tell us the other names you heard?

it is an incredible jump honestly in one year. context is missing and sample size is small, but what he did at Minnesota earned him al lengthy extension and obviously mario's connect to schiano helped

Gopher media and fans are not happy. They love this guy and what he was doing there

Minnesota has money but they aren't worried about spending it on football. All B10 schools are LOADED.

There’s a reason Fleck tried to get that UCLA job.

Doesn’t recruit lb’s ? Sounds like a fit to me

 

[flips]

Great hire. Great off-season Coach

Before anyone asks:

Yes he runs Fire Zone at times.

Id say it IS saying a lot given his OC hire just led us to the clear best offense in the country, and is the reason we got Ward and now Beck.

 

[Coach Macho]

He plays Cover-3 Match. I'm sold!

 

[Torocane]

Did Saban say no?

Did not want...he is a 2 gap guy lol

Just kidding!!

 

[Gru]

So what are his primary recruiting areas he would have ties with?

 

[Hold My Beer]

Assuming that Mario ran some backgrounds to make sure this one's not a drunk

 

[Dude]

Hope his contract comes with sunscreen. He’s from the northeast. He ain’t ready for this sun.

He will have the sunglasses tanline sometime in June for sure
