Following Erickson&#8217;s departure, Miami initially pursued former University of Miami defensive coordinator and then- Colorado State head coach Sonny Lubick ; however, he withdrew from consideration and opted to remain with the Rams.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes finished Davis&#8217;s first season with a record of 8\u20143. However, when the Department of Education got word that school officials helped athletes fraudulently obtain Pell Grants , it asked Miami to stop its own investigation while it conducted its own.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, 60 athletes were implicated, but all of them avoided criminal charges after being sent through a pretrial diversion program. In , Tony Russell, a former University of Miami academic advisor, pleaded guilty to helping more than 80 student athletes, 57 of whom were football players, falsify Pell Grant applications in exchange for kickbacks from the players themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Federal officials later said that Russell had engineered &#8220;perhaps the largest centralized fraud ever committed&#8221; in the history of the Pell Grant program. The NCAA also found that the university had failed to wholly implement its drug testing program, and permitted three football student-athletes to compete without being subject to the required disciplinary measures specified in the policy. The NCAA found that this was evidence that school officials didn&#8217;t have adequate control over the football program.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the scandal, Sports Illustrated &#8216;s Alexander Wolff wrote a famed and controversial cover story, arguing that Miami should at least temporarily shut down its football program. On June 21, , Miami football players broke into the apartment of the captain of Miami&#8217;s track team and struck him repeatedly. The low point for Miami came in when they posted a 5\u20146 record, the first losing season since Howard Schnellenberger&#8217;s first year in  The Hurricanes began to reassert themselves in , when they finished 9\u20143.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes rebounded from a 66\u201413 &#8220;caning&#8221; at the hands of Syracuse quarterback Donovan McNabb [] to put up over yards of total offense against UCLA en route to a stunning 49\u201445 victory for the Hurricanes.<\/p>\n<p>The following season carried high hopes and expectations for the Hurricanes. They opened the year with a 23\u201412 win over Ohio State in East Rutherford. The Hurricanes rebounded to win their last four games including a 28\u201413 win over Georgia Tech in the Gator Bowl. Despite beating Florida State head-to-head [] and being ranked higher in both human polls, the Seminoles were chosen to challenge the Oklahoma Sooners for the national championship.<\/p>\n<p>Washington had been ranked third or fourth in the human polls, behind Miami. The Hurricanes went into the Nokia Sugar Bowl as the Big East champions and, after much pregame antics including a brawl between members of the two teams on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana , [] defeated Florida 37\u2014 After being turned down by Wisconsin head coach Barry Alvarez , athletics director Paul Dee promoted offensive coordinator Larry Coker to head coach to replace Butch Davis.<\/p>\n<p>Angered at being snubbed by the BCS, the Hurricanes stormed through the season. They opened the season with a 33\u20147, nationally televised rout over Penn State in Beaver Stadium. In the final minute of the fourth quarter, with Miami clinging to a 12\u20147 lead, Boston College quarterback Brian St. Pierre led the Eagles from their own yard line all the way down to the Hurricanes&#8217; 9.<\/p>\n<p>With BC on the verge of a momentous upset, St. Pierre attempted a pass to receiver Ryan Read at the Miami 2-yard line. However, the ball deflected off the leg of Miami cornerback Mike Rumph , landing in the hands of defensive end Matt Walters. Walters ran ten yards with the ball before teammate Ed Reed grabbed the ball out of his hands at around the Miami yard line and raced the remaining yards for a touchdown, resulting in an 18\u20147 Miami victory.<\/p>\n<p>Miami jumped on Virginia Tech early, leading 20\u20143 at halftime, and 26\u201410 in the fourth quarter. But despite being outgained by the Hurricanes by yards and being dominated in time-of-possession, the Hokies never quit. Virginia Tech added a couple of late touchdowns, attempting two-point conversions on each.<\/p>\n<p>The first conversion was successful, pulling them to 26\u201418, but receiver Ernest Wilford dropped a pass from quarterback Grant Noel in the end zone for the second conversion. Still, the resilient Hokies had one more chance to win the game late, taking possession of the ball at midfield and needing only a field goal to take the lead. But a diving, game-saving interception by Ed Reed sealed the Miami victory, 26\u2014 In the Rose Bowl, the Hurricanes took a 34\u20140 halftime lead and cruised to a 37\u201414 win over the Huskers to capture their fifth national championship and put the finishing touches on a perfect 12\u20140 season.<\/p>\n<p>The Miami Hurricanes are considered by some experts and historians as one of the greatest teams in college football history. Miami started the season as the defending national champion and the No. The season was highlighted by a 41\u201416 win over rival Florida at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium , the first regular season meeting between the rivals since  Miami overcame a point second half deficit to defeat the Seminoles, 28\u2014 In the midst of a game winning streak, Miami was a point favorite going into the Fiesta Bowl match up against No.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes took an early 7\u20140 lead on a yard touchdown pass from Dorsey to Roscoe Parrish , but Ohio State seized control in the second quarter behind an aggressive pass rush, bolstered by constant blitzing , and a stifling rush defense. The Buckeyes held a 14\u20147 lead at the half, and a field goal by Mike Nugent extended Ohio State&#8217;s advantage to 17\u20147 midway through the third quarter. A touchdown run by McGahee brought the Hurricanes within 3 points, but he suffered a knee injury early in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Miami scored a touchdown on its first possession in overtime on a 7-yard pass from Dorsey to Kellen Winslow II , and, on Ohio State&#8217;s ensuing possession, the Hurricanes appeared to have won the game, 24\u201417, after Buckeyes quarterback Craig Krenzel &#8216;s fourth-and-3 pass from the Miami 5 fell incomplete in the end zone. Miami players and coaches rushed the field and stadium fireworks were set off to commemorate the program&#8217;s apparent sixth national championship.<\/p>\n<p>The celebration proved premature. Miami suffered through some offensive struggles in behind new quarterback Brock Berlin. A blowout loss at Virginia Tech in early November ended Miami&#8217;s game regular season winning streak [] and a loss the following week to Tennessee [] ended Miami&#8217;s national championship aspirations.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes rebounded to win the Big East Conference championship and finish the season 11\u20142 [] with an Orange Bowl victory over Florida State. Miami joined the ACC in  The season marked the debut of Kyle Wright as Miami&#8217;s starting quarterback, although the much-ballyhooed Wright would struggle with consistency during the season with much of Miami&#8217;s success that year fueled by its defense.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes went 7\u20146 during a season [] that included an on-field brawl against Florida International , [] the shooting death of Miami defensive tackle Bryan Pata , [] and a four-game late-season losing streak. Only a Thanksgiving night victory over Boston College , in Miami&#8217;s last game of the regular season, saved the Hurricanes from a losing regular season record.<\/p>\n<p>After a search that lasted two weeks, Miami athletics director Paul Dee named defensive coordinator Randy Shannon , a starting linebacker on the national champions, as the Hurricanes&#8217; 22nd head coach on December 8,  Shannon&#8217;s first year as University of Miami&#8217;s head coach in was one of the worst in the Hurricanes&#8217; modern history, with the team registering a losing 5\u20147 record. Notably, it was the first time in 25 years that the Hurricanes had missed a bowl game with a full complement of scholarships.<\/p>\n<p>Media draft experts considered the freshmen on the team to be one of the top recruiting classes in the nation. Afterwards, the tension between the two teams was heightened when Shannon accused Florida coach Urban Meyer of trying to run up the score with an unsuccessful deep pass into the end zone in the game&#8217;s final minute. Miami was knocked out of ACC Championship contention with a late-season loss to Georgia Tech in which the Hurricanes surrendered the second-most rushing yards in school history  After the season, Shannon fired offensive coordinator Patrick Nix , citing philosophical differences.<\/p>\n<p>Shannon&#8217;s staff suffered more upheaval when defensive coordinator Bill Young left to assume the same position at Oklahoma State , his alma mater, in late January  North Carolina assistant John Lovett was hired to replace him. In fact, 21 true freshmen played during the season opener. The season began on a poor note after two back up quarterbacks, Taylor Cook and Cannon Smith, both transferred out during fall practice, leaving the young Hurricane team with only one serviceable backup in true freshman Alonzo Highsmith Jr.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse, starting defensive end Adewale Ojomo suffered a broken jaw in a locker room fight that led to a season-ending injury, causing the already young Hurricane team to go into their season short handed. Miami faced a difficult schedule to start the season with visits to No. Billed as a &#8220;Battle of Rebuilding Programs&#8221;, [] Quarterback Jacory Harris led a heroic comeback in Tallahassee to beat the then ranked Seminoles 38\u201434, overcoming a late interception and apparent injury to Harris in the 4th quarter.<\/p>\n<p>The next week, Miami welcomed the triple option offense of the No. Georgia Tech came in hot off of a big ACC win against Clemson University the previous week and held a 4\u20140 record against the Hurricanes in the last four years, including the previous years pounding in Atlanta.<\/p>\n<p>The contest would be a different story all together, as the Hurricanes handily beat the Jackets 33\u201417 at home and allowed only 95 rushing yards in the process. In pouring rain, Tech defeated the Hurricanes by a final score of 31\u20147. Going into halftime, the Hurricanes trailed the Sooners 10\u20147 in a highly contested football game. Miami came out for the second with a huge hit on the kick off team by Cory Nelms that forced the Sooners to start inside their own  The following play, sophomore corner Brandon Harris hit Oklahoma Quarterback Landry Jones and forced a fumble that eventually led to a Hurricane touchdown.<\/p>\n<p>The momentum stayed with the Hurricanes as they rode to a 21\u201420 win over the No. The Canes then had to take on Clemson in Miami in what was a contest of speed and athleticism. Turnovers, missed opportunities and stand-out back C. A win against Wake Forest on Halloween kept the Hurricanes in the conference race, [] which they followed up on with a 52\u201417 defeat of Virginia in Miami.<\/p>\n<p>Miami finished the regular season with back-to-back wins over Duke [] and in-state opponent South Florida. The Hurricanes started off fast with a big return to open the game by Sam Shields , but the Canes just could not maintain any offense throughout the game and had no answer for the power offense of Wisconsin. Going into halftime, the Hurricanes trailed 17\u20147 and Graig Cooper blew out his knee on the poor turf just before halftime on a kick off return. After the season, Shannon signed the No.<\/p>\n<p>In May , the university raised Shannon&#8217;s pay and extended hiss contract as head coach through  The Hurricanes finished the season with a 7\u20146 record, [] which included losses to rivals Florida State [] and Virginia Tech [] ands their first ever loss to in-state opponent South Florida in the last game of the season. Shannon was fired by athletics director Kirby Hocutt after the loss to South Florida.<\/p>\n<p>On December 13, , it was announced that athletics director Kirby Hocutt hired Temple head coach Al Golden as the program&#8217;s 23rd head coach. In , Golden&#8217;s first season, the Hurricanes posted a 6\u20146 record. On November 25, , Miami signed Golden to a raise and four-year contract extension through the season.<\/p>\n<p>In , the Hurricanes finished with a 7\u20145 mark. North Carolina , which had defeated the Hurricanes earlier in the season, would have been declared the coastal division champion based on the ACC tie breaker formula. Miami finished in second place based on the formula.<\/p>\n<p>However, due to likely pending NCAA sanctions from the Nevin Shapiro scandal , the university&#8217;s administration preemptively chose to forego post-season play for the second consecutive year. The Hurricanes compiled a 9\u20144 record in  The Hurricanes were able to close out the regular season with two wins, defeating Virginia [] and Pittsburgh 41\u2014 The Hurricanes went 6\u20147 in  Miami won their next three, winning 55\u201434 over Cincinnati , [] 30\u20146 over Virginia Tech [] and 47\u201420 over North Carolina.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes finished 8\u20145 in  Miami defeated Virginia Tech by a score of 30\u201420 on October 17 in what would be Al Golden&#8217;s last win as Miami head coach. On October 25, , the day after a 58\u20140 home loss to Clemson , [] the worst defeat in school history, [] the university&#8217;s athletic director Blake James announced Golden&#8217;s firing.<\/p>\n<p>In Scott&#8217;s first game as interim head coach, the Hurricanes recorded a controversial win over Duke. On November 7, Miami defeated Virginia by a score of 27\u2014 On December 4, , former Georgia head coach Mark Richt was named Miami&#8217;s 24th head football coach. His teams represented the SEC in three BCS bowl appearances with a record of 2\u20141, and finished in the top ten of the final AP Poll seven times \u2014, , ,  His team also finished in the top ten of the coaches poll.<\/p>\n<p>His Georgia teams averaged about nine wins per season, won two Southeastern Conference championship games and reached four more, reached bowl games each of his 15 seasons as head coach and sent many players to National Football League playing careers. Richt had prior ties to the Miami football program, having played quarterback for the Hurricanes under Lou Saban and Howard Schnellenberger from to and, despite being behind the likes of Jim Kelly , Vinny Testaverde and Bernie Kosar on the depth chart, amassed nearly 1, passing yards during his college playing career.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes improved to 9\u20144 in  The Hurricanes rebounded to win their last five games of the season, a trouncing of Pittsburgh , [] a 34\u201414 victory over Virginia , [] a 27\u201413 win over NC State [] and a 40\u201421 win over Duke with quarterback Brad Kaaya becoming Miami&#8217;s all-time leading passer to close the regular season.<\/p>\n<p>Miami finished 10\u20143 in  On September 23, Miami played its second game of the season, defeating Toledo by a score of 52\u2014 On May 3, , the University of Miami administration signed Richt to a five-year contract extension.<\/p>\n<p>On December 30, , Richt abruptly announced his retirement from coaching. On the same day Richt announced his retirement, Miami hired Manny Diaz as their new head coach. A Miami native, Diaz had been the team&#8217;s defensive coordinator the previous three seasons. Diaz had been hired as head coach by Temple 17 days prior to Richt&#8217;s retirement.<\/p>\n<p>On December 30, , however, Diaz withdrew his commitment to Temple to accept the head coach opportunity at Miami. On December 7, , the day following Manny Diaz&#8217;s firing, the University of Miami announced the hiring of former Oregon head coach and University of Miami alumnus Mario Cristobal as the new head coach.

The two schools met every year from until , but have not played regularly since then.<\/p>\n<p>Florida canceled the annual series after the season, [] [] when the requirement of the Southeastern Conference for member schools to play eight conference games induced the University of Florida to fill out the non-conference portion of its schedule with teams that do not require a home-and-home arrangement, [] except for Florida State.<\/p>\n<p>From to , Miami won all six of the games between the schools, including victories in the Sugar Bowl and the Peach Bowl.<\/p>\n<p>Florida snapped its year drought against Miami with a 26\u20143 win over the Hurricanes in  The Hurricanes and Hokies first met on November 13, , in Miami.
