Upon arrival in Coral Gables we picked Shaq up from the dorm and met Up with Some other Cane Fans at the Titanic (shout Out to my new friend Will ) after a few beers we all walked over to Greentree . As soon as I got on the field I notice a difference in the atmosphere I'M not one to bash the previous staff but the tone and tempo was different... It went from I hope we do well... to l Know we are going to do well ... Then seeing all the Hurricane greats ... It was like my first trip to Disney World . It was surreal watching Ray Lewis and Jon Beason showing Grace , Shaq , Pinckney , Mcloud , Mike Smith all how to get off blocks and get downhill ... how to mug the back on his route ." that was worth the 5 hour trip ... As for the recruits it was like a kid in the candy store .., too many for me to see them all So I Picked a few to go and see First I watched N'Kosi ... he can stand to gain Some weight but other than that the kid was impressive and noticed that he mustered a lot of attention from Richt Jr who also Impressed me ... then went to see Juedy who until yesterday I wasn't really that high on have to get with Pete to see who was the WR wearing the #6 jersey he was extremely impressive ... Steed Was by far the best LB ... not saying this cause Steed Sr is here ... as a matter Of fact when I came up after watching the other positions Shaq and my other boys were alredy watching the LBs and One of my Sons said that 59 was the best backer not even Knowing who he was ... Shout out to Steed Sr good seeing you again ... there was a bunch of good looking DBs Amari Carter and Ivey was getting alot of coaching from Diaz and they looked good in the one on ones but who Impressed me the most was AL Blades ... the one on ones intensified when he thought it was time and he lead the other DBs to follow suit . Apples don't fall far from the tree ... Bennie Blades told me that Al told him that he was going to break all of Bennie's records at UM... Bennie told him that he will be the first to congratulate him ... didn't get a chance to see the big boys ..but like what I saw in Pete's post ... Over all it was a great day ... don't want to be premature and say "We Back" but damnit ... "we Back"

That's crazy that we both posted our reviews a few minutes apart and both came away with the same impression. It was great seeing you again also and I'm sure it won't be the last!!!

It's a cane thing!
 
Thanks for your posting-UknowWhat! Can't wait to see the team on the field this year and seeing your son flying around making plays.

Shaq, Mike, Zach, Waymon is a great young nucleus at LB.

In fact you would be hard pressed to find a better foursome anywhere.
 
Thanks for the recap. Appreciate your insights. Congrats to Shaq on his success, must have been crazy meeting Ray. Love hearing about Al Blades Jr. The Blades' are born Canes! Our LB core just keeps getting better. Talk about competition. The future looks bright.

Go Canes!

Yes, Thank you for the input and dedication. Thst picture if Shaq and Ray Lewis gave me chills. I hope your son surpasses all of Ray's accomplishments here at the U and in the NFL!
 
Goddamnit. Now I'm hype AF about to enter a Gymboree class. Guess I'm knocking one of the little cholos on his ***

I remember Ray being a skinny legged freshman and wondering how the heck could be be a MLB. He grew into beast size in NFL -- Shaq looks as big as him right now. Cannot wait to see your son grow into the greatest MLB The U ever had. I am so glad he will get a chance to play for a real coach and on a defense with a Dline attacking the other team instead of being shoved back into our LBs.
