The theme of Athletic Director Kirby Hocutt’s press conference on Sunday was that the Hurricanes need “to be nationally relevant.” Hocutt is confident that the identity of the football program can Tchange rapidly. “There are brighter days ahead and the U will be back where it belongs at the pinnacle of the college football world,” Hocutt said. Randy Shannon shined as a terrific linebacker, a great defensive coordinator and an outstanding recruiter, but after four years as head coach, Hocutt felt a new leader was needed. “[The USF] outcome did not determine this decision,” Hocutt said. “It was not made on 60 minutes. It was made with the total body of work in mind.” Shannon’s well-known relaxed demeanor proved ineffective at maximizing the talent of his players. His 16-16 record in the Atlantic Coast Conference accurately reflected his mediocre performance. With the hiring of a new football coach, Hocutt and UM President Donna E. Shalala know they need an eye popper, a wow-factor, someone who exudes confidence, exhibits passion and oozes swagger.
