Honestly, I didn't mind Lane, but watching his press conference earlier, I said **** dude has the look, attitude, lingo, smarts and presence that Lane doesn't have.

His composure at the end with the last question in which he said that was just for him to share with his family ...... priceless!

I'm hoping he rights this ship because he sure past the eye test for me, and I'm as critical as can be, in bringing a WINNING CULTURE back at Miami and like he said it starts with the foundation and that means everyone has to be involved and locked in.

Just like, Public Enemy, It takes a nation of millions to hold us back ........ that's how I felt

It's been a long time, I'm ready

In all honesty, with these changes made or being made, I have no reason to ***** about anything. I’m willing to let it run for what it is, which has so much upside to sit back and enjoy. All I ever wanted was for our players to be given the tools and knowhow of putting up a good fight on the field, backed by a sound coach who wouldn’t sabotage them with poor calls and poor time management. I’m not gonna even get into the list of pluses with this change(s). We are on our way there.

I don't get the shock at this as it completely right... Which is exactly why I said someone like kiffin wouldn't have cut it. Mario IS EVERYTHING THAT WE NEED. His approach,his mentality, everything Mario has as a strength is where we're lacking... For those of y'all that haven't realized this yet, play calling is secondary. Yes it makes it easier, but when your doing everything else right it's just a plus. Just line up and whoop the dude on the opposite side of the ball from you. The rest will take care of itself.

The dignity and class thing bothered me. This is college football, no one is showing that, but we have to? Save your outrage for LSU boosters embezzling from a hospital to pay players or ND covering up for Brian Kelly

I didn't bother to read the article as her and several others I'll simply leave it at Cee U Next Tuesdays they're simply begging for clicks. Absolutely we had a toxic environment that needed to be cut from the root up. But this process this *****y nag complains about is the beginning part to changing that culture. It's not our fault these ***** we have in local media have zero loyalty to us and simply threw us under the bus the first chance they got to get clicks... It's not our fault they continued that process throughout. We spoke on this publicly several times and handled things internally with class as a whole. It was a very small part that enabled this to happen. The individuals on the board who held out from change since fspoo knew exactly to leak this too so that it would be made a ****show. If anything it my eyes it shows them to be morally corrupt. Not us who kept it internal for large part and did things how we had to PER THE REQUEST OF THE 3 INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED... As a result of their games part of this process dragged on far longer than it was supposed to.
 
Below is a list of other programs they would attack like this…

And Miami should tell her to **** off when she wants an interview

Embrace it; I know Mario will. This "hate" being spewed from coast to coast is what Miami fans are used to. It's what Miami fans embrace. We shouldn't want to be the good guys because when we've tried we've been laughed at. ****, we are laughed at and mocked for any **** thing we do. The program in the past never cared about being liked; it was about respect and that is earned through actions. Mario and the program he will lead will be about actions not words. Not style. It'll be substance.

If ESPN and the other national media outlets are taking their time to trash the program because it's stepping up into the world of big boy football, then we are obviously on the right path. These Mario years will be fun that's for **** sure and the hate will be petty and it will be real, but that'll make the winning so much sweeter.

Post moar please.
 
Holy **** we are back... Haters are pulling out the big guns because they know the college football landscape has just been altered and what used to be a mediocre Miami is now a major talent sinkhole thats going to be impossible for the talent to escape.

Yeah earlier today I turned on espn for the first time in months (I even try to avoid accidentally changing the channel to that garbage network it just in case the Nielsen people mistakenly assume I am a viewer) to see if they were talking about Cristobal. Tony Kornhole on PTI was ****ting on the program and saying Mario should have stayed at Oregon since they are national contenders and we are just a memory. F#ck him and that network.

Here’s a question:

What (if anything) happens to those individuals that tried to corrupt this process from within?

Miami needs a culture change more than a coaching change

Too much toxicity has been a feature at Miami over the years, and hiring the best coach and athletic director money can buy won't alone fix the Hurricanes.

One thing she was right about. Yes, it WOULD have been nice if they upped the budget when Richt arrived. Yes, Miami’s program hung its coaches out to dry and the fans called for their heads. However, once Mario proves that increased spending will yoeld dividends, the spending will continue so F her.
 
She is also a hypocrite because her own alma mater jist axed a multiple SEC east winning coach. F her in the A. Does she really think they weren't courting their new coach at UF before they fired Mullen? STFU, b!itch!
 
There are some people who don't give a **** about results as long as the person they like is in charge.

Texas A&M fired their head coach while he was in a recruit’s driveway. USC left their coach on a runway.

College football is replete with classless acts.

To be polite in response:

Toxicity wasn't a problem. It was a symptom. Win, make the right decisions and we support the team and the university. History has proven this. If the university wins big with Mario, this article will not age well. ESPN hasn't truly covered sports in a non-political, objective way in about 10 years.

We don't want to watch talking heads. We want to watch sports. Same with MTV. I don't want to hear some ******* baby whine as a freshman in college.

I want to headbang to "Master Of Puppets" by Metallica.

And the fans, and apparently the University want to win.

The party is over. The laughing stops now. And when we take your favorite team, knock them on their *** and **** in their mouth, and you mutter under your breath about our guys being criminals and thugs, we rejoice. We rejoice at you hating us. Because that is the way things should be.

It was a lot of words and insults to not really make any points. Aside from spending, what did she point out that is wrong with the culture? Treated manny poorly? Fans need to have realistic expectations? What?

If you’re going to do a hit piece, at least do some homework. There are plenty of legit cultural issues that need to be changed, but she didn’t touch on any of them.

Just another hater. Won’t be losing any sleep over this article.

Exactly, whole lotta nuthin’
 
From the article:

"Cristobal must set realistic expectations right out of the gate, and the fan base must understand and accept that he is not going to wave a magic wand and get Miami all the way back in a short few months. Anybody who watched the dysfunctional way in which this search proceeded understands fully that Miami is not a place where there is one strong leader that everyone follows. Miami is a place filled with many people who have a voice, some louder than others, and has lacked unity of purpose for many years."

We don't think we're going to have the 2001 Hurricanes in a few short months. No one thinks this. We didn't think this with Golden. We didn't think this with Richt. We didn't think this with Shannon. We didn't think this with Diaz. When we saw the decisions being made by these coaches were foolish, and turned out a sub-prime product on the field, then we got mad.

'Cristobal must set realistic expectations?' Since you didn't set them, and since you've never coached a game, pray tell, what should be the proper expectations?

I said this before; you got to spend money to make money. If Mario turns out to be big time here, the University will make an assload of money out of this. They aren't doing this out of the goodness of their hearts for the fans. They made this move because they felt the investment would gather larger returns.
