I can’t defend Manny

[CaneFatigues]

He was checked out after Georgia. And yes, it would have been. This staff is filled with Enos MAC buddies and the ESPN intern yes men. The bartender would not have job at any other program. This is seriously the worst staff since Butch left.

2007 coaching staff would like a word with you

 

[Andrew]

Richt got paid a Top 10 salary with money for assistants. Did Clemson care about football when they hired a WR coach named Dabo?

It’s not that simple.

Such a true statement.

 

[Cane6]

James made a lazy hire in Diaz.

The understatement of this century

 

[The Franchise]

Mike norvell as HC asap‼‼‼

He doesn’t know Miami. LOL. The imbeciles at Miami have no clue who Norvell even is.

Competent ADs study this sort of stuff and keep lists of up and coming excellent coaches. Our AD just convenes the old guard and asks Jimmy Johnson what he thinks.

Then, we choose from Schiano, Beanerdict Arnold, Butch, Trestman, and whoever the DC was from the staff that just got fired.

 

[Kempo Cane]

He’s been outcoached in every FBS game. He has shown no reason why he has a job. This is rock bottom.

Yup.

Golden was a hot name. You liked him and I liked him. Picking coaches is hard.

Fair point. All I ask is for a competent AD that at least interviews minimal of 3 coaches before shooting your shot.

 

[MiamiChris]

He said if he had boarded that plane to Philly he wouldn't have come back. ***** the pilot/airline for not taking off earlier.

Blake would have Fd up the hire either way, he’s a major problem also

Of the 5 failed coaches, the Diaz hire was the most blatantly bad. The fact that he was hired without so much as a cursory search makes it even worse. Blake James must go.

 

[TreOFive]

Our defensive scheme is straight ****. That is just a shiny dorito. Pachan should be special team and come in to give the starter a quick breather. 15 has to stay in the game @ end...NOT ******* nose gaurd. Stop with the safety blitses and can we for gods sake at least pretend like running the ball is still allowed.

 

[UMJay]

@DMoney pretty obvious that Manny isn’t going to be the guy to bring us back to being an elite program. Didn’t think I’d be saying this after 5 games, but its painfully clear. Does this administration have the awareness to admit this to themselves and make the move sooner rather than later?

 

[Hurracanes]

This program is sunk.

All the admin does is react late and then allow football imbeciles to dictate the coaching hires. They listen too much to some of the old players who don’t really study college football.

All they want is a “Miami guy who knows the area” or some other lame **** like that. Those guys don’t even know who the up and coming coaches are. They’re stuck in the Russell Athletics era.

These imbeciles have actually hired coordinators off two failed staffs trying to get the band back together.

We had a nice run, but in 30 years, fans will hear some stat that Miami won 5 NCs, and they’ll be like “****, I had no idea Miami ever had a great football team.”

It’s a wrap. We’re too far gone. We’ll sit around for 3 years with Shanny as HC because that’s what classy schools must do. They must wait at least 3 years before they can correct mistakes. Then, lather, rinse and repeat. They’ll hire Rumph or Baker as HC.

Realist **** of the night. I’m starting to accept it.

 

[sdaly12]

Temple is laughing their -ss off right now...... 2 weeks to prepare flatter than pancake
manny is an OJT project surround him with top level assistant coaches..... staff is incompetent
bot, president and AD should all go......

 

[MiamiChris]

Why leave out how many players we lost from this year to last in the draft and how many 1st time players are starting

We have plenty of positions that have guys who have played 2+ years. Don’t fall for the we have a young team . Everyone on D could have got more playing time last year and go feet more wet, but Manny chose not to. We have 2 freshman OL, we are young at WR but they all played last year, same with RB and TE. DL isn’t young meaning first timers and LB are oldest in league. Bandy played a lot

A lot of teams play with youth and look better than we do

 

[MiamiChris]

Welcome to reality

Whole coaching staff is trash

 

[Katzenboyer]

There is no way they will fire Manny after year one based on how other buyouts run, you will probably owe him about 70-75% of his remaining salary which is about $8.7 - $9.3 million plus they just paid Temple $4 million in a buyout. He will be back for year 2 no doubt.

Paying $8-$9M to save the soul of the program is money well spent.

Seriously. We might finish 3-9.

 

[TheEye]

Diaz has a buyout. Blake James does not. BJ guaranteed a win over UF.

The math on this one is quite simple. Persue a succesful AD for once.

 

[gruntking]

It's simple dude. Pay urban 8 mil and his staff 5 mil. Stop giving a **** about medical research being the number one priority of the school over academics and sports.

It isnt ****ign rocket science. You find the best coach and pay them the most money to get them here if you care about winning.

The admin, bot, president, and largely boosters who keep funding this bull **** do not care.

Yet a fraudster like David penny stock cheat frost has his name on the U....

The UHealth will not be disregarded to bolster a football program, it won't happen. This is a major metropolitan area and health care is huge for the community and UHealth is big bucks and big pride. Does this mean we can't have a great football program... not exactly. If we want a "turn-key" big time coach and coaching staff we will need the BOT to be onboard with the $$$ and with the consulting money, because here nobody knows what they are doing football-wise.

 

[The Franchise]

I'm pretty sure he had already checked out by that bbn point If it makes a difference. Regardless of that fact you cant argue that staff with a qb coach and an actual oc is 100 times better off than this staff from top to bottom. Gus being gone was necessary too but those were the three holes to fill. Now you have about 12 holes to fill that are DEEP.

Yeah. All that staff needed was a new HC, a new OC, new QB Coach, new DC, and new S&C guy.

It’s Ok for us to quit comparing current failures to past failures and looking for the firmer piece of stool to anoint. Richt was washed. Shanny is trash. Either way we were going to continue our downward death spiral.

And for fcks sake, please stop this “we need a Miami guy” **** (not talking about you Dee—that’s just a general statement to this decrepit fanbase and administration). There’s football outside the old Miami trees.

 

[simplycanes]

Diaz can't survive a 3-9 or 4-8 season, buyout included.
