Dorito is merely a symptom.

Golden is the disease.

All a small change will do is buy him more time to meander around our once proud program embarrassing himself in ties that look like they came from the same material that's on my Grandma's couch.

A man who never beat a winning team while at Temple, and never won that conference. A career .500 coach. A guy who celebrates in the locker room after last-second wins against sub.500 teams like he just won the Super Bowl. A man who allows his starting QB to casually eat a Snickers and say "you win some you lose some" after a devastating home loss vs Virginia Tech. Find me a successful coach that would do or allow any of these things to take place on his watch..

There are coaches who are Miami guys, and those who are not. This nice guy in his pleated pants and baggy shirt is more fit to manage a McDonalds than he is handle this type of gig. He offers no advantages when it comes to X's and O's, he isn't some master motivator, and he put together a horrendous staff. The man is turning through pages of his own 300-page How-To win guide praying for answers. He's absolutely clueless.

Dorito should be tied to train tracks, obviously - but that is just delaying the inevitable. This job is too big and too cutthroat for a lumpy sappy nice guy like Golden.

No lie we need a major change on D starting with dorito, but i think we have to set our offence up to where we are not big play or go home we lose our top play makers and lose 3 straight. why we cant physically dominate teams like VT, DU the world may never know....

You support a guy whose team loses three straight games in his 3rd year, and allows half a thousand yards of offense to any team with a pulse. DUKE just ran for over 300 yards on us. We received a mulligan to win the Coastal, and STILL threw up all over yourselves.

YOU are an awful fan for supporting this head coach, and your ***** attitude is only enabling him to stay around. I'm sure this loser mentality of yours seeps into your personal life, but some people want the program to succeed, and when a fa.ggot isn't bringing the results, he has to go.

Now go hand out juice boxes to the team after practice with your *** ***.

I endorse the OP 100%. Thinking that anything is going to get changed by firing Dorito or anyone else on the defensive staff is extremely short-sighted. Once you accept the hard fact that we failed for the 3rd straight time in a row, things get much easier. It has nothing to do with being a better fan or any of that nonsense.

Golden has built an entire staff of recruiters. Even assuming he doesn't just replace Dorito with another bum with similar philosophy, you really think this dude has shown he is capable of hiring good coaches? Nope.

Sadly...the points the OP brings up are really starting to come to light.

I want Golden to succeed here so badly. I love what he represents in theory...but part of me says a "nice guy" can't turn the savagery on/off like that. It has to permeate through every level of your being.
 
some people including myself have been deceived by fatty's speeches and sayings...big changes need to be made

I refuse to disagree with OP. Easy for me to say now that this **** fire is exploding, but I would have rather had someone like a Mullen or Malzahn or even a Winston Moss. Goldylocks has alot of soul searching to do or he is going to find himself being a defensive coordinator again running someone else's system. Good coaches do not believe they know everything and will look at what they do every offseason. They put the **** in storage that does not work and blow the dust off of stuff that does.
 
Probably right but doesn't matter. He parlayed the NCAA **** into a very long term deal. He's already got the build in excuse to with why he isn't farther along. Golden isn't going anywhere for a couple years.

This is my guess as well. There was alot made out that we downplayed the NCAA mess when he was hired. If so, we are behind the 8 ball.

I'm still a fan of Golden. He took this job with no knowledge of the NCAA and led us through it like a champ, he recruits like a monster, and he can formulate a coherent sentence. Golden has proven he can handle the big picture, the program image, and from the sounds of it, he wants to be here for a long time. This would be a huge boon for a Miami program that can't seem to ever have any coaching continuity.

On the other side, I think his game day coaching is suspect, but that could be fixed with competent, experienced coordinators. D'Onofrio does not fit that bill. Maybe his defense is too complicated, maybe the players aren't talented enough, but either way, whatever he's doing is not working. It is his responsibility to put the pieces he has in positions where they can make plays. If he has a bunch of square pegs, he can't continue to jam them into round holes. Coley may not be a great play caller (RB screens, anyone?), but he's a fantastic recruiter, he's young, it's his first year with these guys, and this is his first year calling plays. He'll grow.

I do think the one thing Golden is missing is that killer instinct. This is my one major issue with him. The punt on fourth and one. Every fan knew that was an awful decision. Aside from being plain dumb (we hadn't stopped Duke all day), it lacked guts. We should've taken the game from them just like we should've taken the Coastal from VT. The inability to put away "easy" games. We take our starters out of a game in the third quarter and give up three touchdowns to win by 10. That's bull****. He says it all the time -- the game is 60 minutes long -- you play until the clock stops ticking. He doesn't kill. He maims and waits for death by blood loss.

For a Miami program that was built on a **** the world mentality this is a problem. I don't know if he'll ever develop a killer instinct, but if he can, I think he'd be very dangerous. If he can't, we will be 10 wins every year without never winning a NC. Consistently above average, but not up to Miami standards. You need that mentality because in the big game the guy on the other sideline has it.

Long story short, I'm good with Golden right now, but I'm done with this defense.
 
Golden stays as head coach - he is good at recruiting and develops relationships. Hire quality dc to run a new scheme and play Miami ball. Golden is ceo. Simply solution.

I said the same thing after the Vag Tech abortion. Scapegoating coordinators never works especially when your scapegoating the guy you developed the defense with and the scapegoating is being done on the side of the ball that is your alleged area of expertise.

Unfortunately, that pig faced swindler in his copier salesman duds managed to dupe UM into thinking he didn't know about the ncaa nonsense even though he showed up with a binder full of 300 booger smeared crayon drawings and his 8 Phalluses of Success.

Fvck this guy for getting blown out by Puke when Flubberneck gift wrapped the coastal for us. That was as bad a performance as any Shanntard ever puked out given the circumstances.

I'll be waiting for the assh0les to step in and tell us that we all would have been thrilled to be 7 and 3 at this point in the season. Not me. Not how this **** schedule played out. If we were in the SEC we'd be Kentucky right now.

In all honesty this what I envisioned from Golden from day 1. He NEVER gave me the impression of being an X's and O's type guy...he's a high level, well spoken, face of a program when all of the surrounding parts are working at optimal levels.

The problem here, and the part I took for granted, was that he was smart enough to identify and surround himself with quality assistants who handled the X's and O's. So far he has failed miserably in that regard, which is a huge indictment since it's probably THE most crucial decision he's responsible for.
 
Yesterday definitely rivals anything Shannon or Coker have ever produced.

Shannon's house would have been on fire by now. The only reason people are allowing it and saying things like "Oh, he's still the CEO!" is because he's articulate, like any good con man. He's still hoodwinking and bamboozling innocent simpletons with his slick-talking salesman routine. It's sad.

Cover their faces and just watch the seasons - I can't tell a difference between a Shannon team and a Golden one.
 
Duke scored 48 points against us. 48 points. Heads have to roll.
Some facts. Golden is signed till 2020. Think about that. 2020. I don't know the exact details of the contract, but I bet most if not all are guaranteed. So 2.xx million X 6 = 12 Million + buy out = Golden ain't going anywhere.

So for the better good of our beloved Canes, I hope to fuggin god Golden figures this **** out, cause we married to him for a while. While we are married to Golden, we definitely aren't to the Coordinators. As bad as I have screamed and yelled at Coley, he did put 30+ points up and he is in the first year here. Also, he has had to deal with more injuries than any other unit.
Dorito isn't guaranteed. A big if, would be Ed O. Would love to see him come in and see what he can do. Make him D and Asst. Head Coach and hope it works itself out, as this has a chance to go south quick.

Make no mistake, Administration has to be fuggin ****ed about missing out on the revenue from the ACCCG, That is Golden's whole staff salary right there, and I am pretty **** sure there is going to be someone accountable for that side of the house, as that was a major loss of revenue which just happened and I am sure the BOT is going to have some say on this.
