Trevor Matich explains why he thinks Mark Richt might not be the best choice to be Miami's new football coach.
Miami did not seem to have a clear direction in the early stages of its coaching search, interviewing one disgraced coach and another fired from his previous job. So when Mark Richt suddenly became available, the Hurricanes had to pounce.
With Richt introduced as coach Friday, the Hurricanes have the big-name, splashy hire they so desperately needed not only to appease their fan base but to try to get Miami nationally relevant again. A Miami program that has settled for coaches for far too long finally closed the deal, tossing out millions of dollars to make it happen.
