Lots of jobs open, good time to be a good coach looking for a new gig

 

[orangeinjersey]

Schiano to Miami??

 

[elimunelson]

Butch Davis

they all float down here

What's the record for most jobs opening before November?

I mean, what was the record before this year?

 

[Ozcuse]

All these teams aren't wasting time. They know to get the best chance of hiring the best up and comers they can't start the search in December/January. When I saw them down 42-0 at halftime I called it. No reason Miami shouldn't be competitive every year with their recruiting advantages.

Another in a long line pf coaching failures that some board posters wanted at Syracuse (recently-fired George O'Leary was another.).
When will fans learn that not all coaching gigs require the same attributes? Success at one program does not guarantee success at another.

Early firings helps shafer.

Will Holgerson get fired? His seat has to be warm right??

I would hardly Call oleary a coaching failure, time for him to move on and retire? Sure but guy has won a lot of football games and beat Baylor in the fiesta bowl a couple years ago. He's had a pretty solid career.

Miami was 1 of 15 schools w/Top 25 recruiting classes annually b/w 2012-15. Those 15 teams averaged 34.3 wins since 2012. UM had fewest (26)

Mario Cristobal, Schiano, people want butch but it's hard to see.

Yeah, Adelson tweeted not too long ago she's hearing Cristobal might be the frontrunner.

Thamel with a big group of possibles

If you ask me, this may be the best job in america. Their is not another place that has the number of athletes or D1 football players within an hour drive of their campus then Miami. The school doesn't have the money like the big universities but I would put the local athletes up against any around the country. Obviously some areas like cali or texas would come close but Miami has the number 1 recruiting radius if you ask me. I think a perfect hire their would be charlie strong. He doesn't seem to fit at Texas and was a florida guy previously.

Not even close to the best job in America. The local kids don't necessarily want to play for The U anymore. All of these other big schools can come down and pick some of the best talent.

Just to name a few of WAY better jobs than Miami:

Alabama
Georgia
Ohio State
Michigan
USC
Texas
Florida
Florida State

I really like al golden but I never thought that was a good fit. To me Miami is one of those places you need the rock star coach. I'm not saying schiano is a rock star but he has the attitude and swagger that is Miami. He would be a great fit there. With coaching hires the coach needs to fit the mold of the university. Pete Carroll at usc, movie star mentality in la or grob would have been a great head coach at crazy town university.

I should clarify, I believe the recruiting area is the best in america. If you can keep the players at home then you would have a dominant team. As I said, they do not have the fans or money that the big time universities have. And they have a huge stadium issue right now, but you would be mistaken if you believed their was a bigger recruiting hot bed then Miami. Look what Butch Davis did, as he said he built a fence around Miami and went at it hard. He proceeded to put together possibly the best roster in college football history. And I extremely disagree regarding the talent not wanting to stay home. You put the right coach in place they will stay, even Bruce Feldman said as much in his article and that guy is very plugged in.
