it is what it is..

So Miami loses 42-41 in the Pop Tart Bowl. To finish 10-3. In many ways it was a microcosm of the '24 season -- Cam Ward did so much for this team and program, but the program (specifically the defense) didn't do nearly enough for him

This should've been a playoff team. It wasn't. And by that standard, this season in my view wasn't a success for Mario Cristobal and the #Canes

It was a fun and entertaining team, but a terribly flawed one(two units, defense and special teams were really bad).

As Bill Parcells says, ''aint no medals for trying."

-- Just one take away as we head into the off-season: there's no way Cristobal can bring back Lance Guidry, right? If he does, OK, it's your job, good luck with that. I have never seen a more uncoordinated unit in my life. They wasted a special year for Cam Ward and the offense

Had we lost this game not kicking that FG (failing to convert) I wouldn’t complain a bit about this outcome.

As is, he’s just a loser man. Grow a pair.

 

[CTCanes]

Such a sad end to the season. Makes you realize how far we are from greatness.

MARIO SHOULD NOW EAT A BOX OF POP TARTS AND FILL HIS BRAIN DEAD FOOTBALL ACUMEN

 

[CTCanes]

Can’t believe we played for 42-41 in hopes that Emory would
Lead us down the field. ****** coaching.

 

[Angry Ibis]

Mario is a fraud. Owes Cam his salary for this season.

 

[LeavingJesusland]

And our fans our chanting for Ward to come back in. Why? To win a ******* toaster?

 

[SFbayCane]

Low IQ, ******, caveman head coach has no idea how to manage a game.

It's maddening that UM cannot hire a competent head football coach.

In July if many of us heard we’d be 10-3, many would be happy. It sucks to lose but the season was fun, Cam is a baller, and what we all thought would happen did in fact happen. Our DBs were suspect going into the season, and it showed up. Sometimes we have to take our canes glasses off and see that Guidrys defense had holes in August, and we didn’t fix them…Deep down I think we all knew this wasn’t a championship team. And if we see it, the guys who get paid to do this **** def saw it too

 

[ADELPHI]

If Mario has hitched himself to Guidry like Golden did with D’Onofrio then he will suffer the same fate.

 

[SCarolina Ibis]

The first 4 minutes of the game looked like everything wrong with the season.

We turned it over on the first snap
We committed a penalty on the next play before they even took a snap
We let them convert on 4th and 1
We gave up a passing TD

The ONLY thing missing was a George penalty. Otherwise, that start was our season in a nutshell.

I’m usually slow to criticize. Or at least slow to get off the bus and call for heads.

I’m just not sure we can win with this guy. Especially when his strength as a recruiter is neutralized by NIL.

I’m gonna have to try to get excited for Carson beck coming back from injury or Quinn ewers after he gets run out of Austin. Either of whom will probably cost $3M per.

It’s not good right now.

 

[TallyCane]

They lost the game the second they kicked a FG from the 3.

 

[Hurry-Cane]

Ok I need to apologize to @cway313 for an earlier comment about negativity. I’m fully on the WTF are we doing, across the board train. Very, very frustrating loss and season on a number of fronts.

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

Just don’t understand what you guys thought you were getting with Mario

Beck is going into the NFL draft, who knows about Ewers. Seems he might be odd man out in Texas as it seems Arch Manning is the savior there.

 

[bdcane4eva]

The free passes y'all been handing out to the head man in here is fckn staggering.

 

[Squid Bumciorek]

a few of us warned everyone this was going to happen.

Just saw the beck news. Idk. I guess we are looking for someone post spring.

 

[CaneDawgCrew]

Main concern is gameday coaching. He doesn’t learn.

Take the 3 vs Syracuse and you throw away the season trusting defense

You then take 3 tonight trusting defense.

Just about entire defense needs to be let go. Call Deion Sanders for pointers on getting that done. Williams can join them.
