'shirted, I'm guessing. It was '86 when Miami lost to Penn State for the NC; same year he won the Heisman.
Sure. That's the process. Control Freak Nick Saban just tells his players to figure it out for themselves and have fun.
Miles being unemployed was part of many a conversation in the summer of '15. '14 was a 4-4 record in conference, wasn't it? As I recall, the SEC record went from two losses in '12 to four in '14. Now, Orgeron getting the nod for the job? Some of it makes sense to me, part of it doesn't. From afar, I see Alleva and company thinking about recruiting, thinking about how good he has been on the trail, and with that in mind they're thinking if we hire him, close our borders to a greater degree it'll eventually translate into more wins. The part that doesn't make sense is IF that was their thought process...how do you come to that conclusion? No doubt, recruiting is key. However, after Ole Miss I wonder how some came to the conclusion he had the "CEO skill set" to run a program. I still wonder. Now, I thought Kirby Goff, after spending so much time as an assistant, would have done a better job at UGA running the program and coaching. So far, all he's done is recruit.
Its a numbers game with odds. The odds that Bamas 8-9 men could stop 1 RB were a lot better than 1 on 1 actions from a pass. But I am not smart enough to be a coach, so there is that.
