The Conference change was a good thing for Miami, both academic and athletic. What has hurt the CANES most are coaching changes. Had Butch Davis stayed I believe the CANES would still be a highy rated team. Coker let the conditioning slip and even though he recruited highly rated classes, they just never developed. Shannon, was a decent recruiter but not a very good head coach and the program slipped further, now it is Golden's turn and I do think he is taking this team in the right direction. As far as this weeks game, K. St. really put in us and we lost three players, one for the year. This is a very young team and they will get better each week. So we shall see.

Maybe it's simply having to play by the rules that has hurt so badly...

Those NCAA sanctions will hopefully hurt badly.

So, you think Davis would have stayed out of trouble? I think he was fired from UNC for cheating recently.

Not a good day for the "u".

CBS sports with an interview of the 8.00 per hour equipment guy that became a central figure in the scandal.

Like he said he lied about everything. Shannon told everyone of his staff to stay away from Shapiro and I am sure he didn't know some of his assistants were involved with taking recruits to him. The three assistants, should get the biggest penalties. As for Butch Davis he ran a clean program here and I do think he was unaware about what the guy that got him in trouble was doing.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
