Off the top of my head i can't say i've heard his music, but the titles of his albums sound godawful.
"Video in my stereo" and "World's a War and We're Not Fighting"? He better hope that saying about judging a book by the cover is true because those just sound atrocious.
While Ross hiring the first guy he heard on the radio wasn't the most scientific way to get a coach Case will still probably be better than Cam Cameron.
Dave Wanted is a HOF Coach.
1. Jimmy Johnson- Too Busy worrying about his fishing.
2. Dave Wannstedt - Too busy worrying about grooming his stash.
3. Tony Sparano- Too busy worried about a new inventive way to fistpump.
4. Nick Saban- Too worried about not being able to intimidate anyone in the NFL, and wanting back in college.
5 Joe Philbin- Too busy worried about how people need to pickup after themselves.
6 Cam Cameron- Too busy worried about what to serve the Ginn family at dinner in his house.
7, Adam Gase- Too busy worried about his HOF speach, when he retires with 5 SB championships in Miami.

People keep talking about the quarterback not knowing how to win clutch games, but you're constantly looking at inexperienced coaches that have yet to learn how to handle tough or clutch situations too. It's like anything else, if you have a business and you're always hiring young management talent with no prior experience you're going always be behind 8-ball. If you have a Taco Bell and you're competing with 10 other stores with managers who have years of experience at the job and you keep hiring mangers that only have assistant managing experience you are always going to start from a disadvantaged position. Head coaching is like anything else, most people need to experience the early ups and downs before they really become good at it. Miami has a reputation as being a training school, not a place you go to get your Masters degree.
Miami keeps stringing together seasons in the .500 area, but you have to figure an experienced head coach would be worth one or two more wins per season. Some of those 9-7 seasons could have easily be 10-6 or 11-5 and would have resulted in playoff appearances.
.063 is hard to do.

LOL on Putin comment - thanks, now I am not going to be able to look at him without thinking of Vlad.
i always forget that Wanny looks good via win percentage. However, when you look at his record by season it follows a perfect trend from "good" to "suck" - getting worse each season. And same thing happened when he was w Chicago.
Yep. I'll never forget a coworker Bear fan at the time Wanny was handed the job in Miami told me that it was the start of a long decline for Miami that would be hard to climb out of. He seriously hit the nail on the head.
1. jimmy Johnson 563: ended up being a part time HC and foisted an already miserably failed in Chicago Wanny on a clueless garbage man owner
2.dave wanted 575: probably the most disappointing based on the relative results judging what he had to work with. His apologetic, optimistic, we've learned from our failures presser spins were maddening. A good HC would have gone much further into more postseasons. Been on a downward spiral since
3.nick saban .462: Quitter and liar who was in over his head under the brightest lights. First year was deceptive because of an effective OC in Linehan. Passed on Aaron Rodgers. Made grown players cry and harassed powerless Davie office support people. A prick. Good riddance
4.tony sparano .475 His effective flagged in direct proportion to Parcells taking less of an interest in de facto managing of the team. Probably a good OC; this hiring failure is more on Parcells ability to hire good field personnel than it is on the hapless meatball., Even his initial success as based on the wildcat gimmick. Defied the Peter Principle on the Fins by ending up 2 levels above where he belonged
5 joe philbin 462 Illusion of quiet Tom Landry aura competence was smoke and mirrors. Turned out to put nepotism ahead of team success, was OCD about the wrong things, was less capable of making field decisions than the average high school coach, and had su
ch a fragile ego that he felt threatened by players exhibiting leadership. Also so clueless that the embarrassing and unnecessary "Bullygate" imploded on his watch. Back to being where he should be, as a position coach.
6 Adam case Gase looks encouraging, but it remains to be seen. He can't end up much worse than Wanny-Philbin, though, or can he? :idk:
7, Cameron .063. Another joke who has failed at OC but seems to have hit his stride in college. Again, someone in way over his head.
1-5 and 7 were S**T
Gase who knows, but a lot will depend on Tanny performing better than he has.
