Miami-FL Football (official thread)
Quote:
Miami coach Larry Coker has agreed to a new five-year contract that will take him through the 2009 season, a source told ESPN's Joe Schad.
Coker had three years remaining on his previous deal but will receive an immediate increase in pay that puts him among the highest-paid coaches in the ACC, according to the source.
Coker is 44-6 in four seasons at Miami, leading the Hurricanes to a national championship in 2001 and the national championship game in 2002. Coker's winning percentage of .880 is fifth-best among coaches in their first 50 games. The Hurricanes open their season at Florida State on Sept. 5.

How in the world does this guy get a new deal when in reality he has not been able to win anything with HIS recruits?

Didn't you realize everything that has happened to them since the Fiesta Bowl is a direct result of Terry Porter's call? His recruits would be doing much better had he made the "correct" call.  |

Coaches need to have the 5-year deal in order to tell recruits they'll be the head coach for the kids' whole careers.
I'm also glad they extended him. I don't think he's a very good coach, but it's hard to dump a guy that's 44-6. I think I vaguely remember that first loss. 
Each year he's lost 1 more game (0, 1, 2, 3). Last year's losing at N. Carolina, and at home to Clemson and Va. Tech, does not make all those loud-mouth ex-Canes happy about the program at the 'U'.

Do you mean the Christopher Lloyd or Jackie Coogan version?
