Lashlee will utilize him. Thanks Mario we're a feeder school for SMU!

Besides Brashard Smith who on the SMU roster from Miami was a really good player that Mario should not have let get away? The other players that left were marginal. Maybe JHH could have contributed. You only have so much NIL money to go around. Not everybody is a fit. The portal works both ways.

Elijah Roberts, JHH and Jafari Harvey have all been good players for them. Maybe they’re not superstars but considering SMU had a way better defense than Miami, we probably could have used them. We probably could have kept all three of those guys for what we payed Tyler Barron.

They had a way better defense because they had a weak schedule. Clemson blew up a bunch of opportunities against them.

JHH, Harvey and Brashard all made plays here.

From the very very little information that I know.
Some of the dudes that left were upset that they’ve been there busting their assses and doing all the right things but Mario wasn’t promising any starting time to anyone not named tvd.
Also, some were not very happy with the transition from Manny to Mario.
It was a huge transition.

I don’t know and I never heard of Mario actually telling a player to bounce, but I’m sure it’s happened. I just don’t know who they are. But I doubt he told the more talented players that they had to leave cause they were not good enough to play here. They may have also been some disciplinary issues that manny didn’t mind but were a huge deal for Mario (that’s just me speculating).
I would also imagine that Lashley saw an opportunity to poach with nil considering all the new money that any wanted to spend on the program.

Manny wanted to be friends with players. No accountability. Did what they wanted. Mario is a different alpha type personality. He’s coached under butch, saban, and schiano . It’s not for everyone.
