Randy Shannon Named Miami Hurricanes Coach

allCanes.com and allCanesBlog.com extend a hearty congrats to our new, old school head coach, Randy Shannon.

Shannon was officially named Miami’s head coach late last night/early this morning, depending who you ask. Either way, The U has their guy and make no mistake, Randy really is “their guy.” Former linebacker, long-time assistant coach, top notch recruiter and now, head coach.

I have a lot of thoughts on this hire, the hiring process, the use of the consultant and the other coaches who were passed over but I’ll break that down over the weekend. Today is a day to celebrate a long-time Cane finally landing his dream job. It’s not a day to pick about Miami and how they conducted the search for a new leader. There’s time for that next week.

Between the Miami Herald, Sun Sentinel, ESPN and a slew of other sites, there’s a ton of news on the Shannon hire. Get your fill there and we’ll break this down in a few days when things settle in and we can reflect.

For now, it’s a Randy Shannon thing.

Congrats, coach.
