College: Miami fires Randy Shannon

T he bottom line in college football? Wins.

AP: “Shannon took over for Larry Coker at the end of the 2006 season and went on a mission to change the culture at the school — which, in many respects, he did. Miami has been among the nation’s leaders in academic success by its football program, and the off-the-field reputation has been cleaned up considerably. But it never translated into wins.” Details from the AP follow:

    Can’t lose to Tampa and become the fourth place team in Florida. Hell – Central might play them an competitive game right now.
    The time is right for Saban to cherry pick some pipe hitters down there…..

    Yeah — it’s time to get some pipe hitters from there — who wants to build a program now in these days — it’s a pain the as$ — — just remember — don’t be surprised who takes this coaching position — after all, it’s sunny Miami in beautiful Coral Gables.

  11. crimson hammah November 28, 2010 at 5:07 pm #

    There is no truth whatsoever to the rumor that I have benn contacting the University of Miami about a coaching job.
    As one of the nation’s leading offensive masterminds I have managaed to bring Lazarus back from the dead at many schools.
    But i have not approached Miami. Yet.

    Yeah — Kevin Scarbutsky is an senior editorial as$ kisser. One week he’s Crimson, most weeks he’s orange/blue.

  15. DAMAGE INC. November 29, 2010 at 11:22 am #

    Per twitter — Gruden says he’s NOT interested in the U job.

  16. DAMAGE INC. November 29, 2010 at 11:23 am #

    Gustav will take it — but do THEY want him?

  17. C.J. November 30, 2010 at 7:17 pm #

    Who cares…Auburn usually owns Saban with or without Malzahn.

  18. crimson hammah November 30, 2010 at 7:21 pm #

    AU DON’T OWN ANYTHING BUT DEATH ROW
