Mark Richt is having a horrible year. The Hurricanes have not met expectations for year 3. His offense looks archaic and primitive. The QB room has been a mess of his own creation. The OL appears to have taken a step back under Searles. Notwithstanding last week, ST is as bad as I can remember for a Miami team in the last three decades (maybe as bad as it's ever been). Though we have some studs locked in for 2019, recruiting looks ****sure and disorganized, especially with the lack of options at QB/OL/DT, and it looks like we'd be lucky to finish in the top 20 in the composite.
But make no mistake, Mark Richt will be the head coach of the 2019 Miami Hurricanes (unless he shocks everyone and resigns). Blake James will not fire him after this season, even with a 6-7 record. Neither will Frenk. Neither will the BOT. Whether
@Saviorcane or anyone else "accepts" that or not is, frankly, irrelevant.
The way I see it, absent Richt resigning on his own, there are two schools of thought for what we should be hoping for next season: (1) CMR makes changes at some or all of OL/QB/OC coaching positions, including an innovative, young OC to call plays, that makes use of our talent on offense, allowing UM to get back to respectability next season; or (2) CMR remains stubborn, makes no changes, and underperforms even worse than he did this year, hastening his exit from the program in a more timely fashion.
Whichever any individual fan is hoping for, that's on them. But simply acknowledging that CMR will be back next season does not make anyone a slurper or mean anyone here is accepts the product he's putting on the field right now. These things are not mutually exclusive. You can want CMR out while accepting the reality that he will not be fired at the end of this season (and there's nothing you or anyone on this message board can do about it).
