This article is incredibly biased. Miami has been bad the last couple years. Randy Shannon inherited a program in ruins. The article declares him the reason for Miami's struggles. It stresses that the U has lost multiple home games under Shannon, but as of now they have only lost 2 (NC State and GA Tech). It also states that this is the worst Miami year in decades when they are currently 5-4 and need only to win one of their next 3 to equal Larry Coker's final year of 6-6 regular season. Considering this is Shannon's first year as a head coach, I don't think it is time to declare him the scourge of the universe just yet. This article needs to be changed, it is more inline with what would be seen on a website campaigning to have a coach fired.

I removed most of the unsourced, patently biased statements in the article. It was a bit perplexing to see UM's move away from the Orange Bowl as having anything to do with Randy Shannon. WTStoffs 18:49, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bias

I've removed some of the lunacy (players' 2nd amendment rights to carry guns at a private school?) but this thing still needs help. If you want to attack your coach, go post on a message board. Wikipedia is a place for neutral articles, not hate pieces. --B 03:21, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
