Now that the HC job has been filled, we can turn our attentions to other things… like the rest of the coaching staff, etc. That is playing out in front of us so we are seeing it happen in real time.
One thing that seems to have gone quiet (at least as far as I am aware) is the AD hire. What is the latest on the AD hire? The last reports I saw was that Miami had offered Radakovich $3M/yr, which would make him the highest paid AD. $3M/yr is astounding considering his current salary is reported to be $800K…
This presser has me ready to run through a wall. I wasn’t sold on Mario, but damn is he is intense, I am excited for the next few months. You can tell this means a ton to him. If he walks the walk like he talks the talk - Miami will be in a much better place in the very near future.
That is hilarious. Just this morning, I woke up and thought the exact. same. thing. “Damn. I have to wait almost a whole year before I can see hw this is going to go.”
It seems like the Clemson AD will take the job. Would be a great choice.
Don Bailey must be tired of introducing new coaches.
Never thought Miami would get serious about football to this level. Thank God for Billionaire Boosters; they changed the entire landscape. Miami can now compete with the well-funded programs.
Coordinator hires are critical. No Donos, No Enoses, No Nixes, et al. Hire proven talent.
Pretty standard stuff. Nothing especially fired me up, but that’s not a bad thing. I’m not looking for a salesman.
That said, the one answer I really loved was at 39:30 when he talked for a couple minutes. It really does sound like he’s a grinder and will get things done.
