Is Miami Hurricanes Super fan Billy Corben Hinting at the Future…

Billy Corben director of the ESPN 30 for 30 the U and the U part two about the Miami Hurricanes tweeted a picture with the turnover chain saying The U (using the chain for the U) part three.

The nearly two season ride with Mark Richt returning to his alma mater to coach the Miami Hurricanes have been a renaissance for UM football. Miami is 17-4 in Richt’s first two seasons returning to Coral Gables.

They have accomplished a lot in less than two seasons. Miami won its first bowl game in ten years last season, defeated Florida State for the first time since 2010 this season, broke a four-game losing streak against Notre Dame, have won their first ACC Coastal division title and earned their highest ranking in the polls (second) this week in 14 years.

The Miami Hurricanes might need to obtain more success for Corben and his Rakontur productions to be able to make a third documentary. If Miami can get to the National Championship Game that might change.

The Hurricanes have been on the national stage the last two weeks. Miami’s game November 4 against Virginia Tech and Notre Dame this past Saturday were on ABC’s Saturday Night College Football Game of the Week.

The ESPN College Gameday crew that includes Saturday analyst Kirk Herbstreit made just their sixth appearance for a home Miami Hurricanes game. This past week was their first trip to the Coral Gables campus.

There are many ways that Corben and Rakontur can go about “The U Three”. The end of the second era of glory years at Miami began declining at the end of Larry Coker’s tenure with the Hurricanes. Coker was a great coach who seemed to struggle recruiting.

Once the wealth of talent Coker’s predecessor Butch Davis recruited to Miami began to dry up the Hurricanes struggled. Coker’s former defensive coordinator and former Miami linebacker Randy Shannon succeeded him.

Shannon led the Hurricanes from 2007-10. He was ultimately replaced Al Golden and is currently the Interim Head Coach at the University of Florida.

Golden was likely the most disliked coach in Miami Hurricanes History. He had to deal with sanctions from the Nevin Shapiro scandal that occurred during the Shannon era. Miami lost three scholarships per year from 2013-16.

Golden should have had a head start to recruit quality players before the probation commenced. He never seemed to get the Miami and South Florida culture. After the Hurricanes were embarrassed 58-0 at home by Clemson on October 24, 2015, Golden was fired.

Many consider that the beginning of the resurgence of Miami Hurricanes football. Larry Scott took over as Interim Head Coach.  He led the Hurricanes to wins in four out of their last five regular season games.

Richt was fired following a 9-3 season at Georgia. He was hired three days later to return to the Miami Hurricanes to coach his alma mater.

The last two years have restored the faith and excitement of the Miami Hurricanes fan base. There is still a lot left to accomplish this season. If they can do that, ESPN might want to capitalize and quickly have Corben produce another 30 for 30 on the Canes.
