OPINION: Blame Miami, not Al Golden

The 2015 coaching carousel went from leisurely merry-go-round to hell-fueled Tilt-A-Whirl this weekend, as Miami finally fired Al Golden. His dismissal brings the number of mid-season Power Five coaching vacancies to five: USCs East and West, Maryland, Illinois, and The U. With George O'Leary's departure from UCF and North Texas parting ways with Dan McCarney, there are 7 FBS programs already looking for their next head coach.

But while Hurricanes fans may only be looking to bury Caesar, I come to praise him.

Al Golden was never going to succeed at Miami. Ever.
