Yeah I’m not one to just say “oh next year is when we fix it” type personNo doubt the potential for the 26 class is huge and I would expect it to be great, unless there are some major **** ups.
The problem is this. You can NEVER compete for anything of real signifigance if you have a drop off in recruiting like this year. This is exactly how you don't bulid depth. And when you factor in Mario brings absolutely no value as an actual coach, and his staffs so far have been average at best, it makes the problem even more glaring.
Mario legitimately needs top 5 talent to win anything of real signifigance year in and year out and he will never accomplish that. His classes are always unbalanced and from his time at Oregon to now at Miami, he ends up having classes like this one. It's simply not good enough to make up for all the other deficiencies. I mean, he has lost 9 games as a double digit favorite going back to his Oregon games, by far the worst in the country. He is the epitome of doing less with more.
Just saying the pieces are there. I said last season it was the most important off season in my fandom (maybe since probation) and not to be dramatic but maybe this one is given who we need to replace and continue this “trajectory” Mario has been selling
Not sure how it plays out but I have concerns
