I appreciate his outlook but we have a huge question mark at most important position.. Hope he is right tho..

It is not that much of a stretch to say that if you actually think about it.

F$U is a unanimous pick by everyone in the media to make the playoffs. Miami is the odds on favorite to face them in the ACC Championship.
If Miami somehow only loses one game going into that hypothetical Final match and wins the championship they will be in the playoffs.

A couple years back UNC was a few bounces of the ball away from making the playoffs so it is not that crazy to think Miami can also be in that situation.

They should be in the ACC title game for sure this year, if not, this year will be a failure.

I totally agree with him when it comes to our talent. However, Steele obviously forgot that Mark Richt does not win Big Games. Now, before all of you mark richt defenders type up your ridiculous responses, you all need to check the record. Results do not lie.

I think our ceiling is probably a top 10-13 team . We don't have enough depth at OL, DB, or RB to compete not to mention we'll have a green QB.

Not enough DB depth?:
Redwine
Bandy
Amari Carter
Delaney
Jaquan
Dean
Maley Young
Derrick Smith
Jackson (who apparently had a great spring)

meh:
Finley
Knowles
Mayes

I disagree, at OL we have a good amount of depth,especially with freshman we have---Donaldson, Zalontae, Herbert and Gaynor

For Db's we got bandy, Derrick Smith , dean and delaney im not worried

For Rb all we can do is pray
