Leaving dirty ass North Philly for South Beach Miami? Da fuk?
Well it seems as though all the head coaching vacancies are being filled this weekend. First Will Muschamp takes over at Florida, then Gus Malzahn moves north to Vanderbilt, and now it seems Miami has found its new head coach as well. No, it's not Jon Gruden, apparently it's Temple's Al Golden. According to reports, Golden has been offered the Miami job, and is expected to accept it though the deal has not been finalized as of yet.
Golden has been at Temple since 2008, when he took over a program that had gone 0-11 the year before he showed up. The Owls went 1-11 in his first season at the school, but Golden has turned the program around the last two seasons, winning 19 games. The Owls went to a bowl game in 2009, and should have gone to another this year, but were left out despite an 8-4 record with a win over Fiesta Bowl-bound UConn.
Golden has always been an excellent recruiter, and now he'll be unleashed upon the recruiting hotbed that is the state of Florida. Of course, getting talent to Miami hasn't exactly been a problem the last few years. It will be taking that talent and turning it into victories that will be Golden's biggest task in South Beach.
There is no word on whether or not Golden will take over in time to coach the Hurricanes in the Sun Bowl against Notre Dame.
Who’s Going To Temple?: Al Golden went to Miami after his great 8-4 season at Temple. Hopefully winning at Miami will help sell tickets, because that didn’t happen at Temple. Temple home games averaged 20,515 fans per game or 29.9% of capacity, the emptiest stadium on a percentage basis in the FBS.
