Title: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: 2Stater on December 30, 2018, 12:40:50 PM http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/25646173/miami-coach-mark-richt-announces-retirement
Is retiring. Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: XBAMA on December 30, 2018, 12:45:31 PM "Hey @CanesFootball, I may be able to be of some assistance."

No fire in his belly and too many collapses on the field at UGA & Miami. Seems like a decent man, wish him well.
:dog: Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: 2Stater on December 30, 2018, 01:54:53 PM He had a fertile recruiting ground in Ga, so he had the talent. He just never had the control or discipline that he needed for his teams.
I think the handwriting was on the wall in Miami. His recruiting class imploded on ESD, then Wisky curb-stomped them in the bowl game. I think he felt this was his only option. Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: pmull on December 30, 2018, 02:44:47 PM I like and respect Coach Richt. I hate to see it end this way but MD nailed it. He is tired and wore out. He might should have taken some time off after resigning at UGA rather than jump right into the Miami job.
Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 30, 2018, 02:53:06 PM Here is a list of potential hires to replace Right.

Butch Davis Lane Kiffin Mario Cristobal Rex Ryan Greg Schiano Kliff Kingsbury B. Davis-No way, he's 67 years old & got them on probation in his last job there L. Kiffin-Still an unknown and too over-the-top & controversial K. Kingsbury-All offense, no defense R. Ryan-All defense, no offense, no way Greg Schiano-Too much baggage from Ohio State & Urban Liar? Mario Cristobal-I think he's the pick Another name added is Mark Stoops at Kentucky-Is this his agent dropping hints to get Stoops a fat pay raise? :popcorn2: Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: ricky023 on December 30, 2018, 03:46:02 PM Well Coach Richt is a Christian man and I think he will be doing good things wherever he goes. RTR!

Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: XBAMA on December 30, 2018, 10:12:47 PM The 25th Head Coach of the Miami Hurricanes: @Coach_MannyDiaz
https://hurricanesports.com/news/2018/12/30/diaz-named-university-of-miami-head-football-coach.aspx Quote - Diaz has not been a HC in his career, needs experience - Defensive minded, UM finished with the 2nd OVR ranked offense - Need someone focused on offense, UM finished with the 92nd ranked OVR offense Manny Diaz was hired as Temple’s coach earlier this month. A few weeks later, kids signed LOI’s with Temple. Today, he left Temple and rejoined Miami as HC Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 30, 2018, 11:56:45 PM I'm not impressed. They had the 2nd ranked defense but were 7-6 for the season. I could be wrong but this just does not ring as a good hire. I could be wrong & he could be a great coach. Time will tell.
:dunno: Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: N.AL-Tider on December 31, 2018, 07:33:43 AM I've heard that Diaz' buyout from Temple, where it accepted the head coaching job on December 13th is about $4Million. I'm guessing that Miami will be paying that for him which adds to his compensation maybe?
Title: Re: Mark Richt has lost control of Mark Richt Post by: ricky023 on December 31, 2018, 08:42:19 AM Well he is a defense minded coach and defense is how you build championship teams. RTR!

I could be wrong but this just does not ring as a good hire. I could be wrong & he could be a great coach. Time will tell. Diaz might be the only reason Miami looked decent under Richt. Miami's losses weren't due to uninspired defensive play. Besides, Miami had to find a hire quickly, before NSD, with limited options. Diaz is someone they know well. :popcorn2: |
