That's hysterical clever. Seriously.

Luckily, they have an out clause after this year that is very palpable. It's something easy to get out from under if they're smart.

I think Jimbo put the clown suit on him Saturday, but honestly, I don't think Shannon is so bad. Miami has improved each year. And the numbers Phins posted are fairly ugly, but it seems like Miami's scheduling has made it tough on them lately.

I mean, I'm sure Miami can do better, but I'd take him over Dabo. Heh.

Coker was 53-9, and won a national title and was fired. Coker was 18-12 against top-25 teams. Shannon is now 3-9 against top-25 teams.

This is his 4th year, and they're still just trying to be a fringe top-25 team.

If I were a rival fan, I'd hope Miami kept him as well. They're going to have to break out over $2 mil a season, and quit worrying about graduation rates and zero arrests above wins to get relevant again.

Shala has to decide: Do I want to be good at football gain recognition and grow the enrollment base? Or do I want to be Vanderbilt?

When Donna Shalala was chancellor of Wisconsin attendence was 40,000 for football and she realized a lot of potential revenue was being lost. That was the rationale for bringing in Barry Alvarez as coach and Pat Richter as AD.

Well, hopefully she makes the right decision again. Her comments thus far have always centered around graduation rates and lack of trouble from football players. Of course, what else can she say, "Our football coach sucks" probably isn't going to work.
