Mark Richt’s abrupt decision to retire from Miami Hurricanes questionable
The abrupt decision by Mark Richt to retire as the Head Coach of the Miami Hurricanes is questionable. The timing came less than two weeks after the early signing period for recruits and Defensive Coordinator Manny Diaz left for Temple.
Richt’s seemingly sudden decision to retire could have been influenced by many factors. There were rumblings that the board of trustees wanted Richt to hire a new Offensive Coordinator. A sizeable portion of the Miami Hurricanes fanbase also wanted Richt to fire his son Jon as the Quarterbacks Coach.
