Keep hearing about how talented we are. Even the announcers yesterday kept saying it. And it gets me thinking - bull ******* **** man. But maybe people have the wrong idea about what talent is.
See, I don't give a single **** if you can run fast or jump high. I don't give a god**** about your shuttle time or your short area burst or none of that nonsense bull**** we was talking about in the summertime.
You don't have to be Butch ******* Davis to identify talent. It ain't Calculus.
CAN YOU BLOCK THE GUY YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO BLOCK?
CAN YOU TACKLE THE GUY YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO TACKLE?
CAN YOU CATCH THE FOOTBALL WHEN IT'S THROWN AT YOU?
If you can't do the BASIC, FUNDAMENTAL **** that goes along with playing your position, then MISS ME with all this talk about your height and weight numbers. THIS is why we lose. We DON'T do the EASY things well.
And this is where MIAMI FAILS. We recruit a kid like Bubba Baxa because we caught up by the fact that he can boot the ball 70 yards. We caught up by leg strength and all these nonsense metrics. Meanwhile we IGNORE the fact that he can't do the FUNDAMENTAL thing a kicker ought to do - MAKE A GOD**** EXTRA POINT. His high school % was abysmal.
The whole mindset of this program is toxic. We focused on all the wrong things, when all the things that could make us a better team are so SIMPLE.
So I will never call these guys talented football players. And I will never call these talented coaches. The end.
