Former Miami players upset that longtime strength coach Andreu Swasey let go

The firing of a strength and conditioning coach doesn't usually elicit much response, unless the person has worked with a locker room full of NFL players who still keep in touch.

After completing his 15th season at Miami, Andreu Swasey was told that he will not be retained by new coach Mark Richt.

Swasey has worked with Jimmy Graham, Andre Johnson, Ed Reed, Reggie Wayne, Santana Moss, Edgerrin James, Jonathan Vilma and more. Many former Hurricanes have returned to work out with Swasey in the offseason, so they were upset that their old coach was on the way out.
