The Tigers said goodbye to Associate Head Coach coach C.Y. Young this morning. Miami then quickly announced his hiring as an associate coach.

I agree, I didn't see a lot of year to year improvement in playersi thought most would like this staff turnover, cause most thought the staff was stale
It sounds like CY wanted to help Gates get the program off the ground, but he always wanted to get back to Florida as he's from Miami. I don't think it's any kind of indictment on Gates, they knew well ahead of time he was doing thisThis is a head scratcher. This does not sound like good news in any shape or form.
The flood gates are open.
He helped Missouri get off the ground in recruiting when Gates took over. I remember a lot of outsiders raving about him in that regard, and even when I arrived here right before October, I received messages from network colleagues about Young's presence in recruiting. Yet even with who he brought in, he also saw departures of Marcus Allen, Jordan Butler and Peyton Marshall. I don't think many should be worried about him leaving. As many mentioned, he's going back to his home state, even though to a different part, joining a program in need of a spark in recruiting.Is this a lateral move for him? Seems odd if so, other than wanting to move closer to home.
Gates was at an event in St. Louis yesterday and he confirmed they new CY was always headed back to FL at some point relatively soon. Obviously he wanted the FSU job and when that didn't happen he moved on this opportunity. There are some notable family health issues that are a big factor in his decision making as well.It sounds like CY wanted to help Gates get the program off the ground, but he always wanted to get back to Florida as he's from Miami.
