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.
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.
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.
Randy Shannon sure remembersRemember when losing games like this got you fired at miami??
Sure, fire Golden. Let's restart EVERYTHING again. That'll work out.

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.

Yeah, because what we have now surely is working. I never understand posts like this.
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.
Sure, fire Golden. Let's restart EVERYTHING again. That'll work out.
Oh, look, another short-sighted simpleton and a natural born loser.
I'm sure you said the same thing during Coker and Shannon's reign of terror.

You say short sighted simpleton, I say level headed and educated. How easy is it for someone like you who has probably racked up 12,000 of your impressive post count in the past three weeks to just say fire everybody and start over. We are tied to this guy for the rest of decade for what is thought to be on the plus side of $2M/season. Your solution would be to fire him so that we can hire who and for how much? You are so quick to say fire him, but you don't offer up where you go from there. You want the school with a strapped athletic department to be on the hook for a guy for probably $12M to $15M on top of paying another top staff because I am guessing that you wouldn't be happy with another coach coming here from the MAC.
The fact of the matter is Golden isn't going anywhere because some hot head on the internet with 14,000 plus posts thinks he knows how to run an athletic department from a laptop in his parents basement. Golden has done a great job of recruiting and rebuilding the relationships with the local high school coaches that Shannon destroyed during his tenure. What I think should happen, which is worth about as much as what your opinion is, should be for the administration to "suggest" that Golden relieve D'onofrio of his duties and hire a proven aggressive DC to take the reigns that will be allowed to bring in HIS assistants for the defensive staff. That is a much more feasible option in my eyes and something that the school can afford. I know about as much as anybody else on this board about what the athletic department can or cannot afford but based on past hires and contracts that have been given out we have to assume that either they are not willing or able to bring in a bigtime proven coach.
