Miami, Florida—University of Miami will announce their new football coach at a team meeting on Thursday at 3pm. Talks of former NFL coach, Jon Gruden, joining the team are just rumors, reported by Tampa Tribune.
 
Gruden and the Hurricane athletic administration could not come to an agreement.
Gruden’s family says “there is zero percent that he will coach at the U”.

Former University of Miami coach, Randy Shannon, was fired immediately after a lost to the University of South Florida on Saturday. Shannon finished with a 28-22 record as a head coach.

Shannon’s possible replacement shifted from Gruden to Mississippi State coach, Dan Mullen. Mullen has not meet with anyone in regards to the Hurricane coaching position. However, his 13-11 record in two seasons at Mississippi State makes him a prime candidate.

Meanwhile, Shannon shows interest in coaching at the University of Minnesota "you can make a difference in young people's lives."
