    Just stop yourself for a minute. Who in God's name do you think Miami could get as a replacement if we run off (fanbase) or scare off (coach's decision) one of our most famous alums? And before you say "La...", I'm going to repeat, for the millionth time, that Lane Kiffin will never be hired...

    True, true. Even Miami has had a number of legacies who land elsewhere. I was just pointing out why he might be going back to Oklahoma even WITHOUT a "starter guarantee".

    Sure. You know who his father is, right?

    1. Keep Jacurri and Emory and Judd on board. Bring in a guy who can hold his own in that group, maybe teaching, definitely pushing the standard higher. 2. Continue to work on Ward, Taulia, and April Portal entries. 3. Hope for the best.

    This response just illustrates how self-oriented that kind of analysis is. Again, if there was a "discussion", I don't think anyone would have a problem. If it was only "criticism", nobody would take issue. Plenty of people have posted criticism, and continue to have discussions, without the...

    You're not wrong. The fatal flaw is the combo of "we expect this kid to Portal and pick us" (when he doesn't) and the OVER-focus on just that one player. Terrible combo. Ward was a good target. Locking onto him was a bad move.

    Again, there is a difference between "dominates discussion" and "whines like a *****".

    Yes, but "discussing" and "whining like a *****" are two completely different things.

    What are you talking about? There were several plan Bs "prepared", but I've pointed out that Mario got tunnel vision on Ward. Taulia was in the mix a month ago. He's always been a Plan B. It has already been discussed, but not as many top-talent QBs entered the December 2023 portal, compared...

    Yeah. Lots of porsters can't remain calm, but just blurt out every weak feeling and desperate hot-take. I haven't been happy about this situation in a while. It's too late to change certain decisions now, and if things don't work out, we can discuss accountability down the road. But for now...

    You know my trust factor for you is in the 99.9th percentile. Thanks for the good words. I think we still have to stay active.

    I'd imagine we get Hufflepuff before spring practice ("we need the numbers") and then wait to see what happens with Taulia and the April transfer window.

    He will probably have third thoughts soon, and we will likely agree on a third NIL deal then. And he still won't commit.

    Which is why the "2019" argument is so stupid, unlikely, and darn near unwinnable. Should have been arguing "2020" all along.

    Yeah, if they open this door, they will have zero authority to make future determinations. EVERYONE will argue that EVERY rule should be overturned on appeal.

    Not disputing any of this. BUT. He just submitted the waiver yesterday. So how does he "have a pretty good idea the waiver will be granted"? Did the front desk clerk at the NCAA tell him he had a good chance? I would love it for Taulia to get another year, I just don't understand where this...

    You're barking there, hit dog. You're projecting feelings and emotions that nobody expressed. Nobody is "offended".
