I'm a fan of dabo for the sheer fact that in a 2 year period he got Al Golden fired, and then beat Saban to keep the 2001 hurricane as the greatest national championship team of all time.

Has anyone seen a good list of who has a (joking) claim to the national championship based on "we beat the team that beat the team that beat Clemson" chains yet? It should be huge this year, since Pitt lost to a lot of mediocre teams that lost a lot of games. Maybe we even have a Div2 claimant.

i hope the chain runs around enough that Bama claims a title.

I legitimately think the coach should be fired. Rhabdo isn't something that's easy to get. There is no reason to EVER push someone so far that they come close to the damage required to cause that type of breakdown. The fact that it happened to multiple kids shows that the S&C staff is using outdated training methodologies, and aren't able to program safely for the people in their charge.

What would be a good way to ease people into that? Maybe some bodyweight squats, pushups, burpees, etc. that they can opt out of at any time? Oh wait

maybe an actual training program that doesn't sound like a 100 day challenge, but thrown into one hour?

Posting this here instead of coaching since I think it'll get more traffic. Article includes the actual email. I am so sorry Houston.

quote:

Part of Mark D’Onofrio‘s pitch to the University of Houston: the time he had away from college football will help him construct a “bad rear end defense.”

In a highly complimentary email typed on his iPhone to new Houston coach Major Applewhite, D’Onofrio pledged to “work [his] rear end off” if hired, and will coach a group that “knocks the crap out of people.”

Apparently, his pitch worked. Houston hired D’Onofrio, who reportedly spent last year coaching one of his sons at a Boys & Girls Club in Miami, on Jan. 6. According to a memorandum of understanding signed by D’Onofrio — not an official contract, but an acknowledgement of terms — UH was prepared to pay him a base salary of $400,000, plus bonuses.

D’Onofrio, who was not retained by new Miami coach Mark Richt in Dec. 2015, was a regular target of fan criticism during his five seasons with the Hurricanes. The defenses he ran under coach Al Golden produced a couple high draft picks (Artie Burns, Denzel Perryman) but were statistically average to below-average and often came up short in tight games. Missed tackles and finishing games were consistent issues.

In the email to Applewhite, D’Onofrio said both of those issues would be strengths for the Cougars, who lost coach Tom Herman to Texas and promoted Applewhite, his offensive coordinator.

D’Onofrio said he would “offer the good and bad experiences I’ve had if needed.

“I am refreshed and ready to go following a year off. … I’ve had a lot of time to review my 123 games, and watch a ton of games this year.”

He said he has “reflect[ed] on how I can improve in every area. As you know, this can only be done when you have Experience [sic] to reflect on.

“I have a chip on my shoulder to do my part better than I ever have.”

QB Jack Allison transfering from Miami. He's red shirted last year, and seemed to be 3rd or even 4th string this spring behind two guys with no other P5 offers.

Looks like true freshman Perry will be miami's QB next year, because the rest of these dudes have sucked in the spring. Miami is going to have an AMAZING defense, and has a poo poo ton of good skill guys on offense, but no one to give the ball to them.
