Randy Shannon gets some love from SI…

In most cases, I won’t read anything in Sports Illustrated, still bitter from their 1995 article telling the University of Miami top brass to drop football. Ironically, 12 years later it’s the same mag which has written the ultimate piece on head coach Randy Shannon.

This time around it was Gary Smith who wove the tale of the Canes first year leader who is singing Miami’s praise for their hire last December.

Read this article, people. I’ve see people asking for a Cliff Notes version online. Could you be any lazier? We have 11-pages of good ink on our new head coach and a headline on the front cover. We all bitch that there’s no good ink out there on The U and that the media hates us, yet here’s an article and many are too complacent to read it. Come on now…

Click here
to read the article now. If you prefer to save for later, click here for a printable version of the piece. Get a hard copy in your mitts and take 15 minutes to get lost in this piece – and make sure to do so pre-Oklahoma this Saturday. If you want to know why a handful of Canes believe there could be some magic on the 8th, this is a big reason why.

The right guy is in charge of this program. Bar none. From a program saving standpoint regarding wins and losses to a life saving standpoint regarding current and future Canes. The program couldn’t be in better hands…. Read on – and to Mr. Smith, thanks for the stellar read.
