Disaster to end the cycle

we have made it to the end of the year. the end of the cycle. we finish the year 10-2 and that should mean better recruiting after we had great season with finished like 5-7 and 7-6. but no, we get ****ed in the end. recruits are finally seeing we have no future and i’m starting to see it as well. i hate what’s going on right now and mario is going to make zero changes. everyone knew we needed better safeties and cornerbacks and the staff did jack**** to fix that. absolutely devastating. and now we are losing our highest ranked commit who btw is a safety. pathetic.

OP looks like a troll with his 62 posts.

Facts:

We had the #1 offense in the nation. Better than any other football program in the country

We had the best QB in the nation

We have one of the best TE rooms in the nation with at least one future All-Pro (Arroyo). All of the TEs played incredibly well (and consistently the whole year). Super impressive year from this group

Virtually all of our WRs made significant strides this year. As a group, they performed at a very high level consistently the whole year. Restrepo broke all time UM records (a major feat when you consider the all-time greats that he had to beat out)

Our OL played really well the whole year (except for one road game). Playing with Cam must have been awesome but also far more challenging for the OL as they had to sustain blocks way longer than usual. They had a good year. We got short yardage when we needed it a very high percentage of the time

We had ten (10) wins for the first time since 2017 and the overall trajectory is clearly very positive. We’ve won more games every year under Mario.

We dominated an SEC opponent (when they were at full strength) like none of their other opponents did.

State Champs this yr (which is a big deal).

We lost two games by around 10 points total. Those were close losses that easily could have gone our way.

We knew our secondary would be the weak link…before Damari went down in the first game. That’s the curse of Addai’s recruiting failures. Most Canes fans knew that would hurt us eventually…while Addai was still here. Our Portal adds were very good except at DB. Guidry’s scheme is very dependent on good safety play. His D looked much better & completely different last yr with Cam & James back there.

Changes will be made to fix the D. There’s a ton of young talent on DL & in the LB room. Mario is heavily focused on DB recruiting this year.

The Syracuse loss is really frustrating because we all know that a generational offense has likely been denied a chance at a Natty but let’s keep some perspective:

• Alabama has three (3) losses, including a BAD loss to Vandy & a game against lowly Oklahoma where they scored three (3) points. Yes, three (3) whole points the whole game. One year removed from Saban that’s pretty pathetic;

• Georgia has lost two games and gave up 42 points to GA Tech (and looked hopeless on D against Alabama & some others). Florida (who Miami DOMINATED) was dominating Georgia until Lagway was injured and a 3rd string QB transfer from Yale had to come in.

• UF has won only 7 games and they’ve been mediocre every year under Napier. Their D was hot trash last year. Nothing much to be excited about there.

• OSU has two (2) losses and scored a miserable ten (10) points against a mid Michigan team that couldn’t even throw the ball…at home. They have way underperformed. They only scored 13 against Oregon. Their D looked awful at times when I watched them. Straight trash at times.

• FSU: 2-10 or something. That’s atrocious. Their recruiting classes have also been bad the last 3 years so there’s almost zero hope for a turnaround there for at least 3-4 years. They are now in NorvHell as they can’t really make a change for years.

The future is bright as long as we make changes on D, continue to recruit really well, and add some impact players on D through the portal. Keep the faith!

10-2 are just numbers, the eyes don’t lie we look like a 7-5 or 8-4 team. Everyone has seen it and believes it. Remember it took 3 miracles to beat VT, Cal, and Lville! We’re getting what we deserve!

Have you been following recruiting for like 10 minutes. We were 10-2 . Nobody gives about how the games were won . We will have a top 10 class , So stop.

Here’s the thing. Miami can up the bags and keep who they want. What a weird year. We recruited like monsters and sucked on the field. Now we are losing kids with seemingly no replacements and are 10-2.

And if we do that, my statement holds no credence, but if Mario lets UF come in and take his lunch after performing an on field ***** to them at their house, then what are we even doing here?

I agree though, really weird year recruiting wise. Feels like last years results and this years should have been swapped based on the classes.

The SEC is considered the big leagues to recruits. The difference in tv revenue alone will be tough to navigate going forward. Canes/ACC are basically small market baseball teams. Mario’s recruiting ability is going to be negated by NIL.

The graphic showing the distribution of 5 stars this year - most all to SEC & Big10 - was striking. These are kids, so they have no memory. ACC team hasn't won a natty in 6 years and its been 11 since an ACC team other than Clemson won one. The money is more important, and you're right SEC/Big10 already swimming in it and it's only gonna get worse unless we get out of the ACC.

I’ll say it again. It has ZERO to do with the SEC. It’s about money

So are you of the opinion that our big donors are pulling back going forward? I just find it hard to believe that Mario ***** the bed for the first 2 seasons and then wins 10 games this year and now is when the big donors decide to pull back.

Don’t they see what just happened to FSU this season and how many years it’s going to take them to recover?

No I’m under the impression that UF is over paying for recruits which is what is happening. And so Miami needs to figure it out.

Saying it took a miracle to beat Lville shows you didnt watch the game. Being dramatic for the sake of it
