Trust me I'm not even attempting to compare us. I just always find it interesting how quickly programs are turned around. Then u have us. Storied program, NFL pipeline, recruiting hot bed & a rebuilding process that always has to hit rock bottom. We play in the **** ACC! Why is our rebuilding process always a 4 year plan?!!
There isn't a single D1 team within the last 20+ years that I can think of that has had done to it what Miami has since Coker took over. Its been a slow methodical destruction of the football program by the previous two coaches. And the NCAA investigation was the culmination if all the poison the last two coaching staffs fed to the program. From poor recruiting, poor coaching, poor development of players, questionable characters that work at your school yet recruit for other schools, a booster that tries to destroy your program, Coker, Shannon, the DII and DIII caliber players Shannon recruited, lack of accountability, lack of strength, lack of leadership, former players snitching on the program, destruction of the orange bowl, etc. I can go on and on and on. Oh I forgot to mention the coaching carousel. Can you think of a top tier program that has had half of what this program has gone through?
Any coach that took over what golden took over would be struggling in similar fashion.
