Shannons recruits are the main reason why Miami will win the ACC
The failure of the 2010 defensive recruits is the reason we had no defense last year. What the list shows is the SOUTHLAND was a real good recruiter in addition to being a **** of a oline coach--maybe that is why Saban stole him. Six of the names on that list that actually play are offensive linemen. If Morris was in fact Whipple's, then not much of that list is really Randy. To the extent that Randy had a hand in the oline recruits that year, then he did a **** of a job on that, cause it was an outstanding class of oline. The rest of list has just a few notable players and hardly a claim to fame for a senior class. A QB who someone else developed, a WR finally playing, and a MLB finally coming into his own in senior year. That said, the remains of this class will be a major reason we win the ACC this year, but the holes from this class are also the reason we have no defense and did not go 10 - 2 last year. Randy is family, let's stop holding blaming him for everything and let's stop pretending he got short-changed. Love him for all he gave us as a player, including an NC, and forget his shortcomings as coach. Remember, Howard, Jimmy and Butch dumped us--but somehow they are our heroes. Stop using Randy to grind our own particular axes.
It has been a rough 10 years, but after this ncaa crap is finally done, I think we are ready for a new round of glory. Once the rest of the world gets over the joy of watching Bama dethroned, they will remember why they hated us so much. Then we can enjoy what we really miss, universal envy. It is a Cane thing and you wouldn't understand.
