If by "this state" you mean OP Walker high school, then yeah I guess so. But I have no desire to have that dude anywhere near this program.

I don't know much about Robinson, but I like the sound of him.

Wilson is someone I don't want on this staff, but I wouldn't mind, because it would lock freak Johnson up for 2011.

Robinson to replace Porter
Wilson to replace McCarthy

That sounds good to me.

I'm hearing O.J. Simpson needs money, I mean, wants to get into coaching.

how bad does it have to suck to be a guy who gets hired and fired solely to get certain players from 1 high school in LA?

He'd match up perfectly with Jerry Rice...

Robinson would be a very good hire at RB coach, I'd be luke warm about the Wilson hire though.

Wilson has a rep. SFP's scenario is what I had in mind. "Thanks, Frank. CYA."

Seems like the most logical choice:

Tommy Robinson

Ironically, responsible for Storm Johnson coming to Miami.

He only coached under Miles for 1 year and then left to coach TEs at Georgia Tech.

I like the idea of Robinson if he's a good recruiter. I've liked the way Miami's RB's have run the ball recently.

yea robinson would be my choice but drayton seems most likely. im sure he would jump at the chance to leave syracuse. robinson is at an up and coming program, we pay more and he does know miles but seems less logical. wilson has baggage, so drayton seems to be most likely.
