Danny Dillard off the team

But noo noo he was only a redshirt freshman!! We're idiots for thinking he wont amount to anything.... I lol at the porsters who attacked all the posters who said that are running backs arent' ****...LOL that boy Dillard is garbage and was garbage. and to be honest Crawford aint that much better..We have nothing absolutely nothing behind Duke...Ill wait for the tucker, corn elder response..

I dont care what yall thinks he's going to amount too.... I know for a fact that Al Golden didnt recruit Danny Dillard to be the next Willis McGahee. slow smh.

Dillard could very well be garbage but how can you tell based on the fact that he was redshirted last year???

Miami does need more elite depth at runnning back..... everybody knows that. But Al Golden is recruiting guys for a reason.... not to just have a scholarship for a year then get shown the door the next. smh

So Miami has nothing behind Duke.... so if you arent elite you cant make an impact at all. lol wow well that explains why Damien Berry "sucked" his Senior year.


No you misunderstood... runningback is the easist position to gauge talent IMO... you either good or you aint.. It was easy to see that Danny Dillard was an average running back at best.. A JAG... We could have JAGS at other positions but ill be damned if he have a JAG at RB at Miami!!!!! I said the redshirt comment because when me and other posters gave ou ropinion of him we had porsters claiming that we are stupid for saying that DIllard wont be **** beacuse he was only a redshirt freshman...Saying that he could develop..Man that fool aint ****.. We were all saying that he aint **** and most likely wont ever be ****.. I saw the scrimmages I saw the practices the boy is an average running back and should never have been here. He was a JAG and will always be a JAG..as of right now untill I see GUS in action and see that OT is 100%...it is easy as **** to see that Maurice Hagens is our 2nd best running back... and that is a got dam shame

zone is going full ****** as usual

to be the best, you need guys at every level of the depth chart that have the potential to be impact guys.

Dillard clearly was not. in fact, IF we were in a position where he had to play meaningful minutes, we would be ****ed.

lol you are so embarrassingly stupid that its laughable.... Everybody has to be Duke Johnson huh?? So you think Danny Dillard fooled the staff when they recruited him b/c they assumed he was the next coming of Adrian Peterson....you are embarrassing smh.

"uh uh if he had to play meaningful minutes".... he wouldnt have to play dumbass, he wasnt going to play at all this year. There was enough depth in front of him where he couldve still continued to develop.

If Al Golden actually thought like the idiot you are Miami would never have a veteran team at all..... every freshman that doesnt look like an all american would get kicked off the team as soon as he is given the scholarship. smh stupid.

I always get a nice chuckle out of you calling someone an idiot.

the dude was not a Miami caliber RB. I guess you want to have guys on the roster that have no business being here

lol u got some funny lines in there.

But see you say that Danny Dillard was and is always going to be garbage.... that maybe true. But just like you said how you can easily tell Danny Dillard was a Jag b/c its easy to gauge RB talent.... Al Golden gauged his talent and gave him a scholarship offer. Now it might be true that he shouldve never been at Miami but Al Golden and his staff didnt feel that way.

He might have been an average running back but everything that you saw was just him as a redshirt freshman..... you know he is going to fill out and play completely different 3 years from now. Danny's ceiling as a redshirt senior still might not be anything to get excited over but he probably wouldve turned out to be the type of running back that Al Golden offered him a scholarship for.

I dont believe Dillard was going to be anything special but that's not the role Al Golden envisioned him being here to do.... maybe he just wanted him to be a hard worker that pushes everyone above him to be better.

Miami hasnt won anything in 10 years and this team still has wholes to fill it's counter productive and crazy to all of a sudden think this team is where it needs to be now and we are at a point where we can do like Alabama does and have nothing but "studs" fill the roster from top to bottom. Once Miami starts consistently winning and actually being able to stay inside the top 25 for once, thats when AL Golden and Miami is going to have the luxury to stack depth charts w/ the best of the best..... b/c those players will be more willing to wait their turn.

Point is, when there is four backs ahead of you, & you have yearby & Powell committed to come in the next year what do you think is going to happen to you? Kid wasnt a fit for miami. Wish him good luck
 
i'm just saying the "dead weight" whoever they were have been gone a long time ago. As far as that having a full roster of 85 studs comment...... teams arent made like NCAA 2014, you cant just have a fantasy team of nothing but 4 and 5 star recruits from top to bottom. Al Golden said that when he 1st got here that he doesnt even recruit like that anyway and has shown that he doesnt.

Al Golden isnt kicking players off the team, why would he do that if he recruited them... he coached at Temple he knows that most players arent Patrick Peterson, Duke Johnson, and Stacy Coley, they need time to develop.

Danny Dillard was just a redshirt freshman, who knows what he is going to look like as a redshirt Senior. Thats how Al Golden and Butch Davis thinks when they go out and recruit a not so highly rated player. Danny Dillard probably just wanted to leave on his own and if he did get kicked off i am 100% sure that was b/c of an off-field issue.

Obviously there is still dead weight because Grimble and Dillard were just shown the door. Just because a player is no longer on the team doesn't mean that Golden didn't handle it with class. I'm sure he sits down with them and tells them they are going to be a career backup. He then probably tells them he'll make a phone call to a lesser program where they will actually play football.

You claim not everybody is going to be a Duke Johnson. I know it's been awhile and you were probably 10 years old but Miami had Edge, Portis, McGahee, Davenport, Gore and company come through the program in the span of 5 years. This is Miami baby! Sink or swim. Golden will not be happy until there is a roster of 85 studs and I love it. Golden just keeps proving everyday that he is the right man for this job.

Jalen Grimble wasnt shown the door..... why would he be "shown the door" but Corey King and Earl Moore are still on the roster, Grimble was ahead of those 2, and DT depth is still an issue? That doesnt add up

Al Golden wanted Grimble to be apart of this team b/c he was going to be in the rotation.... he was disappointed that Grimble wanted to leave. Al Golden doesnt kick guys off the team, based on lack of on field performance.

Why is David Perry still on the team, why is Tyrone Cornelius still on the team he hasnt done **** yet.

Why is Jawand Blue on the team, he was redshirted and hasnt done anything yet as a redshirt freshman?? Al Golden develops players thats what he does, he's not going to get rid of a redshirt freshman.... who would get rid of a redshirt freshman b/c the conclusion is you arent good enough at that point?

Also no college including Miami has had a backfield w/ the talent you listed before or after that 5 year span, its the exception not the rule.... Jarred Payton, Damien Berry, Mike James are all RBs that played at their highest level and made an impact their SENIOR year. Miami wouldnt have had a running back to carry the load if they told Jarred Payton as a freshman that you arent good enough 3 years before...... Nobody does that.

Most of those RBs you mentioned had to sit, develop, and wait for their opportunity, they all werent considered ALL time great RBs their freshman year.

Please show me the proof that Grimble was ahead Moore or King. Until then what you're saying is absurd. Why is Perry still on the team? Why is Tyrone Cornelius still on the team? Why is Jawand Blue still on the team? Maybe because the coaches deal with the players every day and no more than you do? Oh wait... you know who's a stud and who's not, I forgot. It's funny the way you label the players as if you actually know more than everybody else.

Miami will be loaded again at every position. That's the ultimate goal for Golden and Miami is perfectly capable of attaining that goal again. Miami had a 25 year history of dominating because of loaded rosters due to competent coaching. This idea that it can't happen anymore or is an exception not the rule is BS. Bama is proof...

I know you are slow but you are being the hypocrite that you are.... i know who's a "stud" and who's not??? are you serious. You are the ones screaming that everybody that has left the team are getting kicked off b/c they arent good???? this guy is hilarious.

So now David Perry and Tyrone Cornelius are "studs"??stupid gon stupid...... this roster isnt loaded w/ "studs" dumbass wtf are you talking about. You are living in lalaland.

And it's a fact that Jalen Grimble was ahead of Corey King and Earl Moore dumbass he's been ahead of them since last year.... especially Earl Moore who was behind Corey King.

This guy is living in a fantasy world where he thinks T. Cornelius all of a sudden is a "stud" now b/c he hasnt been kicked off the team.... **** you stupid. You dont have to be stud's to be on the team dumbass. Larry Hope isnt on the depth chart as a redshirt freshman either oh i guess he's a stud though, ***n stupid.

Please show me the proof that Grimble was ahead of Moore and King. You can say it until your blue in the face but the fact is Grimble is gone. Last year is last year and today is today. Also, please tell me where I said David Perry or Tyrone Cornelius are studs. WTF are you talking about? I said the roster will be loaded with studs. I never said it is loaded studs right now. That's why Grimble and now Dillard are no longer on the team. You're the one saying they should still be here?

Larry Hope may not be a stud yet but Golden still has faith that he can be so he's still here. See how that works? Golden is the boss so he decides who stays and who goes. You are a fan who acts like you know more about these kids than anybody else and get attached to them. That's why Bush is the best safety we have and Jenkins isn't as good and you know how they should be used better than the coaches do. I could give two ***** who stays or who goes and trust that the coaches know more than you do. Golden is still weeding whether you want to admit it or not. Your opinion means jack****.

There will be more casualties and David Perry could be next. We'll see...
 
I also I dont believe any of this has anything to do with scholarship numbers b/c of the NCAA. Look at the current recruiting class that's committed.... if its going to be a scholarship issue, Al Golden would more likely cut the amount of 2 and 3 stars he is recruiting and have a shorter more "guaranteed" class.

He is always going to recruit under the radar players and every year we are all going to crown him as a genius recruiter, and then the next year when those players are on the team, we are all going to trash them as "not UM caliber" in the next sentence.

Al Golden wants players that he can put on the shelf and develop then let em loose as upperclassmen..... he will never get to a point where he is only recruiting 5 stars no matter how much success he is going to have on the field.

What does 5 stars have to do with anything? What does the NCAA have to do with anything? You actually wasted your time thinking up this garbage? It's much easier than all of this. Golden is a competent HC. He is going to constantly manage his roster at all times. That's what competent HC and managers do in this world. Has nothing to do with stars or the NCAA. Really not that complicated.

Look Jalen Grimble was on the same rung as Corey King and Earl Moore.... why would he get kicked off the team when Al Golden said DT depth is an issue. All of the DTs were going to get reps no matter how sorry they were b/c MIami doesnt have the depth not 2. He wouldve played just like King and Moore are going to it's just he wanted a bigger role.

Also the coaches know why they have Ray Jenkins playing in space and Deon in the trenches..... it says more about Ray Jenkins lack of aggressiveness and being soft, then it does about him supposedly being "better" in coverage then Deon Bush which is a hilarious belief. When Jamal Carter ends up starting at Deon Bush's current safety assignment and Deon Bush is replacing Ray Jenkins in coverage then we'll know who was right.

and David Perry has been here for years, AL Golden has been here for 3 years. His *** shouldve been kicked off the team 2 years ago based on your point of view. Last year when Al Golden was so worried about scholarship numbers, why did he restrict the recruiting class instead of just kicking guys off the team? Why is it that this year is the year that Al Golden is finally getting rid of all the "dead weight"?

It has nothing to do w/ stars?? are you serious... so you can tell that a player isnt going to be good enough to eventually fill any kind of role on this team based off of a redshirt freshman year? All you are talking about is 5 star "elite" talent.... what else could you mean by "studs" and naming Portis, McGahee, Edge, and Davenport in a sentence.

So now you must be saying that Al Golden needs to do a better job recruiting b/c the under the radar guys he has recruited so far arent "studs" like Willis McGahee and Clinton Portis?

Jesus ******* Christ? Why does anybody bother with you? Yes, I said all of that. Oh wait...

Golden will get it dialed in and the misses will be limited. He's been recruiting with both hands tied behind his back. As the wins come along he will be able to cherry pick the players at the top of his list. Never said Golden wouldn't make mistakes along the way. At least he is proactive about fixing his mistakes.

The star system is a ******* joke. Don't even mention it when talking to me. I could care less.
 
Funny how every is tearing into Danny now that he's leaving, but were all on his jock when he committed.

How about you guys cool off and just realize that the standard is being raised, we have studs coming in next year and commend Danny for being a man about the situation and knowing when his time was up.

I'd rather him leave now, than become a Negative Nancy the whole time he's here because he can't see the field behind all that talent.

Players like Danny and Jalen are reasons why I'm rarely hyped when a player commits because all that hype is all on paper, once you get on the field, that's when you find out the truth.

I tend to think Al is not the cold hearted sob some of you like to think. Each kid's story is different. I supposed if one is not putting in the effort, Al may help him out the door. We know bad behavior must stop of the door will hit you in the back. But just because a kid doesn't turn out as hoped, I doubt that gets him the boot. Not the Cane way-- Jimmy talked big about that, but how many times on senior's day did we see some kid we didn't even know was on the team get in for a couple plays just to get some dirt on his uniform for the first time. And I remember, our beloved Willis was playing FB on the NC team because he was a little on the lazy side at practice. He did ok the next year--I think. I am sure all of you have cameras and recording devices everywhere to be so certain as to the whys of each and every move. I am not so lucky, so I will trust that Al is neither a simple minded sweet grandfather, not is he some cold hearted ******* who will cut a kid on the drop of a dime.

The star system is a ******* joke. Don't even mention it when talking to me. I could care less.

Look a quality program w/ proper development from proper S&C, nutrition, and training throughout a players 4 yr eligibility is what builds a depth chart full of studs..... he's not going to have a depth chart full of studs based off of how they look at 18 years old, most of the guys he's looking at is about the potential they have once they grow up in his system. Miami has had a lot of "elite talented" freshman come in before AL Golden got here that wasted away b/c of the bs program they ruined their football careers under.

and yes once the UM program gets back on top, its going to be easier for Al Golden to recruit elite top talent but he is still going to recruit and offer the not so elite talent as well.

i HEAR YOU dEEPeYEZ but if you follow recruiting closely those in the know knew Dillard was a reach and that Grimble miht not be ****... There are porsters on here that will hype up every recruit we get, I still love em because they're Cane fans but they see everything through green and orange glasses.

Simple fact is most of us knew there was a reason that Grimble from Vegas a supposed 5 star DT couldnt even sniff an offer from USC even though his brother went there. WHen you see **** like that if youve been following recruiting long enough you know theirs something fishy... We all had a feeling that Grimble wasnt that talented and blemblam helped us with that, but I still held out hope. In Dillards case we all knew that this was we need to fill a body at RB and that we couldnt get who we wanted... I too hoped he would amount to something but when i saw him at spring game it was obvious he'd be a JAG.. #yards and a cloud of dust. Ive never seen a running back look like coal and then turn into a diamond in a few years. Some positions may need time to develop... but RB is usually not one of them... the only reason a talented RB usually doesnt play is because he cant pick up the pass protection scheme.. Not because hes just not that talented.. For what this team needs, and the depth we have at RB if Dillard was talented he shouldve been the clear cut #2. We have a 5'8 converted QB/S, A guy coming off neck injury who just started practicing, and a 250 pound fullback in front of him.. If this doesnt tell you this guy sucked , I dont know what else tos ay

Not because hes just not that talented.. For what this team needs, and the depth we have at RB if Dillard was talented he shouldve been the clear cut #2. We have a 5'8 converted QB/S, A guy coming off neck injury who just started practicing, and a 250 pound fullback in front of him.. If this doesnt tell you this guy sucked , I dont know what else tos ay

Yup, this goes with every fanbase, they have a hard time being objective. Exhibit A Chickillo's ranking and ceiling after the all star game. There were people on Grassy who were convinced he was a better prospect than Clowney. When a poster tries to be objective they get ridiculed and called a hater. Another example is the thread about ESPN ranking Morris as the 6th best player in the conference and posters being upset that he got shafted. If you read this board you would think we had 15 future first rounders on the roster and that we have top 5 talent nationally. You bring up Grimble, well lets bring up Grimble, how about the fact the fact SC dropped him all together and the only reason he even ended up here was because Golden was in a bind to make something out of nothing in just over a month til NSD. Dewey is another one, yeah he made the elite 11 and was coached by Detmer, but posters conveniently skipped over the part that the kid was not only a year older but switched schools he could play his senior year twice.

Now I'm not saying its all bad cause Al is righting the ship, but it hasn't been all great either and transfers like Dillard prove that. RB and DT are two positions where if you could not make any noise last year, you never deserved a scholly at the U period. Nothing personal against the kids but it is what it is.
