With the dismissal of Al Golden, Larry Scott will take over as interim head coach of the Hurricanes football team. Scott was in his third season as tight ends coach in Miami and added the title of run game coordinator prior to this season. The Florida native joined the Miami staff on Feb. 25, 2013 and has never been a head coach before.
“Larry was the best choice. It’s my job to identify the best person for the job and I’m confident that’s Larry Scott,” said Miami Director of Athletics Blake James on a teleconference call on Sunday night.
