Manny Navarro on Guidry

he needs to be gone, we're 132nd in explosive plays given up

our talent isn't elite but it's not kent state university bad and still better than or equal to any team we've played
Exactly, yes we lost talent to the nfl. But no way the talent we recruited is that bad or can’t be taught to put out an average defense that doesn’t get gashed game after game by below average offenses?!!

I was holding out hope until the Duke game. If that sorry arsss offense can out up points us then so can Wake.

If this defense wants to change my mind they shouldn’t let wf score more than 13 points.

Bit of an underrated comment. Hard to explain Powell going from playing in the national championship game on an outstanding defense to looking like he’s never played organized
football.
Wait is new CIS narrative now that Powell was some key piece on outstanding defense because their team made championship game?!
:jordan:

I know many dont watch cfb as a whole but last year Washington team was like our team now, lead by their ELITE OFFENSE AND QB PLAY, their HC is offensive guy. They dragged a terrible defense ranked at like 100th in total defense. I dont know who in the hetch did PR for meesh to make him instant leader and all but they need to get them on Cam Heisman campaign because he is a 6th year walk on from a **** defense who came here and became face and instant leader on another **** defense and actually have fans thinking UW was balling on that side of ball, what multi verse does this **** come from?! :ibis-roflmao-sm3:
 
I was told on this board that Venables had taken a step back because of his wife's illness. Would the Hecht be open to swinging for the fences?

Again, that's the "name" DC that jumps out at me. Manny and Al might be too much for the fan base.

This piece tells me that Guidry's body of work this season is unacceptable and will keep UM from getting to a National Championship Game. AD and the Lawyers are probably starting the talent search as we speak.

Mario would never hire Brent Venables. Mario would never hire Jimmy Lake.

Probably at least another dozen plus guys out there that Mario believes slighted (real or imagined) him. It is part of what drives him.

If Miami wants to swing for the fences then they should go all in for D’Anthony Lynn from USC. He is part of the Ravens tree and is really good X’s and O’s.

As just need discipline.
Honestly, I wouldn’t mind santucci from ga tech.

Jim leonhard is the DB coach for the broncos. He put very good defenses at wisconsin

I admire you’re willingness to try and save these ppl.

We get the defense has been bad. But the crazy confirmation bias that happens here and toxic levels of negativity is just mind numbing.

Literally 90% of CIS approved HCs,OCs and DCs have flamed out, got fired or just been “good” and ppl act like they are football coach hiring gurus.

Lebby* fired by Deion, aranda, Riley, frost, Herman da Savage, heupel has been good but his offense struggles against good teams. this list can go on and on.

Lane is the flavor of the month as CIS gooroos who dissect which hands Mario uses to whip his butt willfully omit Lanes disastrous tenure at big time programs.

Now it’s duhvelopment problems cuz we aren’t playing a ton of soph or freshman. (None of the top are relying on more than 2-3 as key contributors).

CIS celebrated the Powell signing since he was the top safety in the portal and hand a bunch of offers. Now he’s having a bad year and it’s “oh evals suck”… then literally everyone was wrong not just the canes staff.

I could go on. The buck stops at Mario, He hasn’t backed down from that. And no it wasnt the quick fix turnaround.

But the reality is that the program was in a really bad state many on this board just refuse to accept that.


They expect us to dominate every game and win by 35 when the roster is no where near that level of talent to not occasionally be in these dog fights and even lose to some of these teams.
Yes this program was in way worse shape than we thought. But it’s year 3 and only a handful of that team is left. Please tell my why Meesh looks so bad. Please tell me why Harris still gets cooked. Please tell me why a GT ran over 200.
Do i believe that Mario has done a great job?

Absolutely !! We are 9-1
But that doesn’t mean that the defensive side of the ball has absolutely no excuse for what has been happening and it absolutely warrants harsh criticism.
No one was asking or expecting to be a top 10 defense. But in no way shape or form do we not have the talent to be better or at the very least not make sorry offenses look elite.

At this point it isn’t people being mopes. Tape and stats don’t lie.
 
I remember at season end last year when reporters asked Guidry about staying. Not word for word but he said something along the lines of his agent is getting the details worked out but couldn’t say definitively if he was returning. Again not word for word. To me that spoke volumes about his commitment to Miami and the kids. He lost me there and this years debacle of a Defense has cemented that for me. Time to move on.

Guidry isn’t going anywhere and people letting Manny article getting them hype is setting themselves up for disappointment.

Not saying coaches don’t have any parts of the blame.

But it’s year 3 the team is 9-1 what were you expectations?

You knew this wasn’t a complete team.

We’ve out performed in some areas and under performed in others.

The way ppl speak here they expect us to dominate these teams like we’ve been a top 5 program for the last decade.

Yeah it’s year 3 and the roster has flipped but we are no where close to having the level of talent across the board where we should expect roll every team every year.

Expecting to beat 4 loss teams isn't exactly asking a lot for a team that is in the hunt for a national title.
 
It’s comical. Also it’s the effing players!!! Not the coaching. We’ve seen him with a very good secondary and we’ve seen him with a bad secondary… im only worried about the evals and the sentiment that we were “good” at LB and DB and that mewish Powell was who we needed at portal safety. Nice kid, smart kid, scared to tackle.
Who recruited the players?? Who decides on who plays or not ?? Eval’s and player development is very important…

You talking about the same Kam who went off script for the final play against GT last year? The one when he tried to make a pick and got beat for the GW TD?
I'm struggling to see how that "covered up the scheme deficiencies."
That’s the point he is trying to make imo..by trying to cover others f ups you don’t do your own job and it cost the team big time… happens a lot in all sports…
 
Can you guys pick a particular play, tell me what the call was & what the assignments were?

Any defensive play from this season.

Just because we are 9-1 doesn’t mean there is no room for valid criticism. We are in a way better place than we’ve been in the last 15 years and that says a lot. Even if we would’ve squeezed by GT I still wouldn’t believe we are a contender based on defensive performance. And im
Perfectly ok with that.

So the question isn’t are we expecting to knock of osu or Oregon with the squad that we have now?
The issues are “why is our defense so bad with a second year d coach”
“Why are less talented defenses able to stop the things we can’t”.

That’s it.
I’m not being ungrateful of what Mario and the admin has done.
But I’m not gonna ignore a huge problem.

We bashed manny to death for not stopping a 4th down to unc and then not holding fsu on 4th down to win the game.
But we can’t say sht about a defense that has been giving up explosive play after explosive play to pedestrian offenses after 2 top 10 recruiting classes and spending money on portal players?

I expect our defense to get lined up correctly every play..
I expect our defensive coordinator to have our kids ready and prepared to play at the beginning of every game
I expect elite player evals and development from our coaches…
I expect not to have one of the worst defenses in the ACC or the country….
