On the phone? When they are in the same city? It's like they are humoring Miami. Philbin made a very impressive binder with a presentation for Miami when interviewed for the head coaching position. The Miami brass was impressed by it. My hunch is that Philbie was doing something very similar for 18. It's disappointing that we don't get the chance to make the presentation.
That said, it looks like 18 is weaning himself off from the Dolphins. There is nothing worse than not being wanted by someone and not facing reality. Miami should man up and not look desperate. Don't go begging, its unbecoming.
