Looks like Schiano to...

We will regret it mightily if GS takes a power 5 job on the east coast. He was right-he didn't build it on stilts or Flood would have toppled it already.
However even the strongest foundation can be chipped away and we are watching a slow death. I see one more year here. Of what, eroding pride, diminishing the fan base, striving for 6-6? Maybe moving to a year of no blocked kicks at all?

I don't think a disciplinarian like GS makes any sense in Miami. The players at the U are brash, arrogant and cocky. The HCs that succeeded there were guys like Jimmy Johnson, Butch Davis, Howard Schnell.. - guys that were brash themselves and allowed their players to be the same. Imagine in a year guys like Sapp, Irvin, Shockey tweeting about GS is a stiff and doesn't know how to motivate. VTech does make sense for him though.
It would be better for RU if he goes to Miami.
If by some long shot he ended up at Maryland. Yikes. :weary:

Maybe but i got the thought on the Cuse recruiting board where a respected Brooklyn Cuse fan warns the fans there that HCKF is very popular there and Cuse is never an ultimatum unless its against UConn/Temple and he thinks soon even the 4 stars will come here....i think he goes by BKLNCUSE...on the ''dumpstefire'' long thread....
Larry Coker tried that, and it was a failure.
a Miami coach will always need to come to the northeast, not necessarily NJ, to grab linemen, if they want to win Championships. Thats why they have alquadin mohamed, courtel jenkins, and kevin feder.
their last national championship team had:
LT - Bryant McKinnie - NJ
LG - Sherko haji rasouli- Montreal/ED Wilkins - NJ
C- Brett Romberg - Ontario
RG - Martin Bibla - Pa
RT - Joaquin Gonzalez - FL
The point is, why would you recruit any place other than south Florida hard if you are at Miami. Of course he would recruit national level guys from NJ just like everyone else.
Butch Davis ran a tight ship and kept the players under control. Miami has more talent than they know what to do with. they are crying out for discipline. GS is exactly what they need. As long as GS wins, all will be fine. IF he doesn't, they'll start yelping pretty quickly.
Foundation was strong but we didnt expect this flood to erode the ground this way.
So, the OP writes a post that sounds like he has info and is stating a fact...stirs up a mini-sh&tstorm...and comes back with "oops" "don't have one" when asked for a link to said information???? smh lol
Again, Greg Schiano threads should start and end with "we'd be lucky to have him".
Yeah, that has nothing at all to do with the guy currently doing the recruiting for us, lol!
Miami had violations imposed during Davis' tenure (most tied to Dennis Erickson I believe) but he had academic misconduct charges against him while at UNC. I'm not sure he ran a "tight ship". But, as Warren Sapp once said "class is a place you pick up women".
Butch Davis was brought in after the Dennis Erickson Pell Grant Schedule but he ran a tight ship at Miami.
Butch Davis was cleared in the UNC scandel:

Yep. I was surprised when he took the job the first time.
A real shame that he couldn't win enough here and was forced to run away to Tampa.
I fail to understand why anyone would think he'd come back here.
Butch Davis was a disciplinarian. Talk to anybody that played or coached for him. And the Pell Grant issue was for violations that preceded him.
He was not forced to Tampa, he wanted a shot at the NFL.
If he had won more, he would have gotten a better NFL job.
If the goal is to make an investment in the program and pay market value ie over $2M+, there is not other candidate worth that much who would come here. So there's that.
Edit: as I've mentioned before there's no evidence he would in fact come here but hopefully Rutgers holds a special place in his heart and as I said before we'd be lucky to get him back.

Schiano at Miami would be much, much better than him at a B1G school, especially Maryland. In miami area alone, he has more talent than he could ever ask for. People forget just how much he spent on the banks just trying to nab as many FL guys as he could.
Now sure he may pluck a few NJ guys now and then because of previous relationships with HS coaches, but miami is one of the few jobs in which he doesn't need NJ. At nearly any other job, he would need to fully utilize his NJ recruiting and Maryland would be a disaster.

His disciplinarian ways will not work with Florida kids. I've seen HS teams practice in Florida and those kids are faster, tougher and more tenacious than kids from up here. One more thing, they want to play on Sunday's not necessarily learn about macro economics. In order to be successful he will have to focus on gridiron success, anything else and he'll fail. Remember he's competing with two proven commodities FSU and Florida. The best Miami teams were under Dennis Ericsson (sp). Love them or hate them they recruited tons of talent and played an exciting brand of football. I wish coach Schiano the best of luck if he's offered the job.
I disagree. If the administration was willing to spend the money and remove the handcuffs and allow an established coaching staff (coordinators/assistants) to recruit key players and prepare for B10 play you could do much much better.
That's a nice dream.....but there's no reason to believe that it could ever happen here.
Fact? Wow read the post. Most links, well actually everything here gets bashed. But it's real, not made up FWIW.
Miami is crying out for more discipline, as that's exactly what they need to be more successful.
Butch Davis ruled Miami with an iron fist, and his disciplinarian ways transformed Miami into a powerhouse. Larry Coker was a player all the players loved (sound familiar?) and was able to take the strong foundation and win for a couple of years, but things ultimately fell apart. Its almost like the same situation at Rutgers, though Miami enjoyed significantly more success.
Miami has higher academic requirements than Rutgers, which is why Nate Robinson couldn't get into Miami, but played at Rutgers his freshman year. Kids there balance academics and football and many of the ideas that Schiano learned at Miami were transplanted to Rutgers, with the help of Mario Cristobal and other coaches, which is part of what facilitated the scholastic success of our players. As long as he hires a Good OC, and let him do his thing, he'll be very successful, if he were to be hired there.
Rutgersai, here's where you've way off base. Miami has higher academic standards than Rutgers. Gimme a break. You've just exposed yourself as knowing nothing about academics AND football. Don't know how this happened, but THIS IS NOT MY POST !!! -- Redrich 65 !

Look it up. Unlike you, I have degrees from both.
Al is right about Miami....and I also have a degree from both RU and Miami....in fact, spent more time in grad school at Miami (6 years) then I did at Rutgers.....and was there for the end of the Erickson run and beginning of Butch Davis' time there.
I think Schiano and Miami would be a very good match. Don't understand the Dolphins part of the OP's post. Christobal might work out for the Canes as well but to me Schiano is the surer thing for them.
