Don't underestimate the hype machine. Miami only needs to win decisively to get a good seed.
13-0 with dominant/complete wins against UF, FSU, and the ACC title and we are a top 3/4 seed. Possibly higher if a B1G/SEC conf champ drops a game.
Only teams we don't pass up will be undefeated conf champs from the B1G and SEC, maybe a one loss team that had a close loss to the eventual conf champ, a ridiculously dominant big 12 team, or undefeated/1-loss ND. That's 6 teams, at most, in a ****storm of Canes bad luck.
So, in the worst-case scenario we draw a 7 seed and that would require all this crap to come to fruition and we still get the 6/7 match up so it's not a big deal. If they want to match us up against the best non conf champ they will seed us ahead of them.
Even if we drop a game in season as long as we are dominant through the season and win the ACCCG decisively we will be a top 5 seed.
Remember undefeated FSU with a bunch of narrow, ugly Ws against pretty weak comp got the 5 seed and had an argument for as high as the 3 seed. If Travis doesn't go down, they woulda got that 3 seed even if they had looked like **** in those last couple games.
It only gets ****** if we seed 8th or worse. Which would be more likely if we lose the ACCCG.
If we want a favorable seed we will have to win the Conference. It would take a confluence of events comparable to our worst case scenario for us to get a top 6 seed after losing the ACCCG.
I don't want to jump the gun here. But if Campbell actually provides quality minutes at DT, that would be a **** of a story. I know we like to think players are washed up if they're not starting by their second year. And that JUCO kids need to contribute immediately or are busts. But some young men just take longer to develop, especially the big uglies.
He played really well against Texas, Troy & South Alabama his Sophomore year at ULM.
I think he likely would've played well last year too if he got the opportunity.

Probably referring to Jones. He has been mentioned a lot this summer.

I still remember Cortez Kennedy being a real non-factor his first year playing at UM in 88 as a JUCO product. I just thought he was a big guy, nothing more
Then in 89, he was an absolute monster. Never seen a one-year jump like that at Miami from any player
But real talk they saying Barrow is the alpha of our d-line next to Bain. Justin Scott is apparently the most pretty and moves the best of the DTs already. Great news and Samson really impressing and has the edge. Plus Arroyo is in the best shape of his life looking like a high NFL draft pick
I can’t tell you how badly I want Samson to win that LG job. I want the two 5 stars out there.
Why didn't he then? Not arguing, I'm truly intrigued. We were playing 3 men fronts with JHH as our DE because of injuries. What stopped them trotting out Campbell if he was capable?
The Greentree talk has been more accurate as of late. But the off-season hype machine was so bad for so long I'm hesitant to believe anything until I see it. Barrow, Samson, Arroyo playing at a playoff level would be absolutely amazing. Still waiting for Dee Wiggins to turn into the next Ahmonn Richards.

My question is why send Pete? WTF does he know / can he see at practice and actually have a clue about?
Me thinks your Ego is a lot bigger than your package homie!!!!
Why? That was exactly as expected?

Idk what was expected but based on last year I don’t think he should be a top3 corner on a team that we all think has a high ceiling
against fspoo he was

Anthony Campbell steeping up would take the DT rotation to the next level. 6-7 300 will be very difficult to handle for the interior offensive lineman this team will face this year.
For real bro him taking his game to another level would be absolutely massive for our o-line group
I mean yea it's just Greentree but that's definitely the early buzz we'll see once pads come on
