I agree but I hope your prayers included some Saturdays in the fall.Soooo many times I tried to explain what Mario would bring to the table that Lane Train could never...
Thank you, Jesus, for answering my prayers...
I was on the Lane train and I still feel that if Lane was the guy, we would’ve won a lot early on and we would’ve been generally a more exciting team to watch.Soooo many times I tried to explain what Mario would bring to the table that Lane Train could never...

This is my thoughts exactly. If this train ain’t rolling by year 3 or 4 then i will accept that we will never be anything better than a middle of the road ACC team ever again.If we don't win with Mario it will never happen again. Mario at the helm just feels like destiny and a gift from God to give us another glorious football run.

However, Lane absolutely would not have been able to build the culture and get the school to fully invest in this program the way Mario has.
I don’t think Mario will produce the on field results in year 1 and maybe even year 2 that we as a fanbase expect, but he’s building something that in the very near future will resemble the Canes that we all fell in love with.
I am more than happy to have him as our head coach.
Go ****** Canes boys.
And Jimmie Jones was in the rotationSileo and JB was the best d-tackle combo ever at UM?
Sorry but title belongs to Tez and Maryland.
Great call. How could I forget Jimmie Jones. My memory is he was the starter before an injury and couldn’t get his starting spot back once Maryland stepped in. But was still good enough to be drafted and have a very good NFL career with the Cowboys.And Jimmie Jones was in the rotation
Mostly the stacked roster but yea.That brotherhood-and a stacked roster-will get us where we belong.
No Jim Burt?I would also put Sapp and Pat Riley over Sileo and JB.
JB was obviously a beast and in the top 5 all time of UM D-tackles, but I don’t member Sileo being much of a standout. Pat Riley was excellent until his knee injury against Pitt, which may have been why we didn’t beat Nebraska that year in the bowl game. Riley’s injury left too much responsibility on Sapp’s plate and he couldn’t keep it up in the 4th quarter Of the bowl game.
Top 5 UM d-tackles in chronological order:
JB
Tez
Maryland
Sapp
Wilfork
We can add Rueben Carter, Kevin ***an, Vince Wolfork, Don SmithNo Jim Burt?
Should be in any top5 list..
Where are Rubin Carter, Eddie Edwards & Lester Williams in this list?No Jim Burt?
