Mario is what he is on Saturdays anyone that doesn’t see that is delusional . Most years he’s going to Inexplicably trip up 1-2 times as a big favorite. Which I knew before we hired him. That’s why I said when he gets this running it’ll be a 9-11 win team most years with the occasional playoff run. That’s where I set the bar and I still feel that way. As mad as I can be at him for his in-game mental *********ion I knew the deal . Mario being here assures us of talent acquisition and financial backing. I’m just unsure if the acquisition and backing is enough to over come his negatives.

@MizCane heres your answer
 
Mario has a very pervasive reputation among the coaching ranks that will handicap any effort to recruit a major DC. He's also terrible at running the hiring process, and has a checked-out AD who has shown no interest in assisting. This recruiting class sucks compared to the standard we expected when he was hired. And we will be in real jeopardy of losing the few promising prospects on the roster if Mario doesn't quickly replace Guidry with a stud.

This was the biggest one. Calendar change through them for a loop some this year. Wish they prepped better for it I'm sure they will have it down for next cycle.

You guys just make stuff up? Seriously.

Steele was not a major dc? Saban hired him from us lol. Our recruiting class is top 10 and sucks. Come on.

He was how many years in when that game happened? I’m a huge butch guy. I wanted him over richter.i have even said Mario should hire him as an analyst. I’m not attacking butch but that game was his turning point.

I wouldn’t say “ we’re down on money “ but more it’s the same handful of people carrying the load. How long that lasts is another question if the results don’t align. Other fan bases are much more involved.

At least one of those people doesn’t plan on throwing not nearly as much money this cycle. Gonna be a brutal close to the year in the HS and Portal. Marios got another two years before we go at it again.

We have a top 10 class , I expect to lose some and get some like every year . Lose Nix get Alford and Carter. Lose Stubbs maybe get Pickett . Mario can flatout recruit.

No idea of your specific credentials but there will 100% be a point for every whale where they wonder what the **** they are throwing millions at. Maybe that time has come for one of the Miami whales but it will very likely come for every program at some point short of maybe Texas, UGA and Oregon. No way the 0% return on investment can hold up long term.

You are going to witness what happens to a head coach who makes consistently bonehead decisions on the field, has ZERO accountability and discipline, hires incompetent coaches, and can't win important games. Mario is toast and I said this 2 years ago because players and other coaches recognize he is a used car salesman. If he can't recruit he is USELESS and that day will come soon. I know many of you think I'm a fool and not a Canes fan but that couldn't be further from truth. Mario is way over his head. He has proven that for three straight seasons at UM. Take note of the most coveted recruits he can't close on and the number of current roster players that are going to leave because he is a big time PHONY! Next year is going to a tough year for UM without Cam and a significantly harder schedule. After next season the seat is going to be so hot that Mario may not survive.

It’s a numbers game and we don’t have **** you money. If it were like that our recruiting score would be over 300 every year . We’d also get the pick in f the litter in the portal. Texas has **** you money. As for as NIL goes Miami is in a pretty good spot. But nothing like the big Dawgs. We aren’t the Pirates but far from being the Dodgers.

Would you say we are top ten NIL wise?

Times already up. The percentage of coaches who aren’t successful by year 3, that end up being successful at that same school, is minuscule. And one of those few (Harbaugh) was already an elite coach at Stanford and at the NFL level.
