As the ship sinks to the ocean floor this ******* coach will be in scuba gear still trying to work out the analytics.

The years do not always bring on wisdom but just old age.
His biggest concern is looking like a boss, not actually being a winner. It'll never work. If he wanted to be a winner, he'd make some tough choices.St Thomas has more coaching experience then this Miami staff put together. Even if that's a fallacy Diaz has already shown he's scared to hire someone who is better than him as a coach/ bigger figure than him football wise. First sign of a failure. Dude doesn't know what the he'll he's doing at this point.
I remember Shannon talking about what kinda offense he wanted to run then he fired his OC after one year. Lmao. Funny part is when he hired him he said he did cause he " gave him fits". smh. diaz has all kinds of weird *** thoughts going thru his head which shows he has no plan. Switching to the spread was easy but why didn't he do that last year if that was the offense he REALLY wanted to run? Trying way to hard to do it by himself and that is why he'll fail
Is sinking?The ship is sinking
I just do not think the present cast of characters CMD/James/Strawely/Frenk can get it done 8 wins sure"One bit of advice offered by a person inside the UM program: Manny Diaz needs to hire more voices around him who are older than him, preferably with more head coaching experience. That hasn’t happened this offseason, though we very much like the hiring of younger assistants Rhett Lashlee as offensive coordinator and Garin Justise as offensive line coach."
"The only former head coach on Diaz’s 2019 staff was offensive coordinator Dan Enos, and he’s gone after a year. The only member of the 2020 staff with head coaching experience is Justice, who coached at Division II Campbell."
"Keep in mind that when Erik Spoelstra was named Heat coach 12 years ago, Pat Riley made sure he had a sage, experienced lead assistant in Ron Rothstein. Something like that should have happened here."
"I’m guessing Diaz will turn this around because of his intelligence (I always gamble on smart people) and because Lashlee’s offensive system should work here. But an experienced, been-around-the-block voice in Diaz’s ear would help, as the person inside the program said."
" One member of UM’s Board of Trustees said: “I’m concerned about the alumni, boosters and fans and how dissatisfied they are. When they’re dissatisfied, they don’t spend money.”
"That trustee said that’s one reason he hopes changes extend beyond a new offensive coordinator and scheme. But that’s not going to happen, with UM’s decision not to hire Alonzo Highsmith."
"At this point, UM believes Lashlee’s offense, a new quarterback, a new kicker and a crackdown on player behaviorial issues will fix what ails the program."
He wants no part of anyone challenging him. The defensive staff is a microcosm of the entire staff. Young guys that know nothing but what they learned from Manny as a GA or whatever they were prior to their position that Manny gave them.
There's only one correct answer in the room and they all think the same way. Hopefully the offense is transitioning from that line of thinking bringing in multiple guys with OC experience and Justice coming from the Rich Rod tree and system vs Lashlee and the Malzahn tree. That's how its supposed to be. Similar concepts but merging different ways of thinking.
Diaz and James pushing all their chips into the middle of the table.
And I’m gonna laugh my @ss off when they go bankrupt after next season like teddy kgb bankrupted Matt Damon in Rounders. LolDiaz and James pushing all their chips into the middle of the table.
Maybe we need a new chain!!!Obviously rooting for Manny & staff to prove us wrong. If we can be that turnover forcing monster we were the year the TO chain came out paired with the high powered spread O we can have a nice season.
Go away and die shill. Have some mercy on us.Has Zo ever been a coach at any level?
I don't know if our defense is championship level, but it's far from being our biggest problem.
We had one defense under Manny, maybe two or three years ago I can't recall, that DID look championship caliber. The one with Jaquan Johnson, Bandy, and such.
The biggest problem on this team is that they're SOFT. Maybe that's just a Florida thing and it can't be cured, but the whole team is charmin soft. Been that way since Coker, but it's only getting worse.
When is the last time we converted on 4th and inches, or 4th and goal? When is the last time our defense held someone on 4th and inches or made a goal line stand? When is the last time we won a game in bad weather? How many times are our quarterbacks going to eat snickers bars and laugh after a loss?
All these kids want to do is smoke weed and play video games. Which is why I'm not buying tickets or spending money to support them.
That softness is the biggest problem on the team.
