Coker responded to the rumor mill

Coker was asked about the Spurrier rumor and his response was, no one told me I was fired yet. Wow, if you can not see the future on this one then no one can help you.

If someone was able to coach the NFL Pro Bowl team for two year (just as if it was any normal team) do you think they would have a great record and maybe win a superbowl or 2? Of course they would, if you have all the best players you are going to win a few games (especially on the college level). Coker had that, when he took over the Miami Hurricanes in 2001 he was coaching at least 15 future NFL hall of famers. Everyone likes to talk about the Coker record and how his win percentage is tops in college, but if you take away the first 2 gimme years (Shalala could have coached the 2001 and 2002 canes to a national title) he has mediocre win percentage. Miami might go 5-7 and has not had this bad of a year since we went 3-8 in 1977. Coker coaches the U to the worst season in 30 years and his response is no one has told him he is out of a job yet.

Watching our games this year was painful and many times it felt like the opposing coach was calling our plays. Ouch.
