Any chance we can poach that little WR Dell?
Dude is giving me Santana Moss flashbacks.

A good coach is a good coach.

Lashlee came from SMU, and Gattis from Michigan, with a Broyles. Which one had better results here?

Well if we are trying to win rings then both sucked balls.

I wouldnt call lashlee a great success at miami.

We absolutely could have done better, especially considering we could have gotten this guy in December.

Anyone saying otherwise is just in denial. Let’s see what he does *shrugs*

Legal issues with Gattis delayed the process. They couldn’t move earlier for leagal/lawsuit reasons.

Yup, the 25th ranked offense in the country was run, run, pass, punt. I cannot figure out who is more dumb, the Houston fans who posted it originally, or the Miami "fans" who copy and paste it here.......

You can't have your offense rank 25th in advanced metrics and have an OC that sucks. Thats just dumb as ****.

NFL bound. did so well at Senior Bowl practices he opted out of playing the game lol

 

[USNAVYCANE]

Based off reddit they're happy he's gone. They reckon Holgorsen took play calling duties off him later in the year.

I looked into it more and I can’t find anything on Holgorsen taking playing calling duties back from him.

You’ve got the stamina of a Mexican featherweight my man

@k9cane will appreciate that joke

 

[troyskiles]

Anyone else think he resembles Ed O?

A very young Ed O. Yes.

I asked Phoenix (Ari.) Sunnyslope quarterback Luke Moga about the Shannon Dawson hire and his response was, "LETS GO" followed by "Super excited. He's been recruiting me at UH.'" Moga added, “Great coach and he’s super smart. I’ll be back soon.”

...

Miami has its next offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in Houston's Shannon Dawson. The former Cougars coordinator spent a lot of time recruiting one of Miami's top quarterback targets while with the program and that's Fairburn (Ga.) Langston Hughes' Air Noland. The nation's No. 11 passer loves the hire by Mario Cristobal and Hurricanes. "Man. I knew Coach Cristobal was going to hire a great OC and that’s exactly what he did," Noland told InsideTheU in a message shortly after news broke. "I think Miami offensive will be one of the most explosive offenses in the country."

Houston & Kentucky fans reactions mean zip to me because they aren’t factoring the talent advantage we will have on most Saturdays which they do not have. Mario went the total opposite direction he went the first time around & I applaud him for it. We will be appealing to QB’s & WR’s.

Might be caused it never happened. Holgorsen gave them to Dawson at the end of 2021 to oversee practice better.

Unsure where this comes from, Dawson could have just realized that his O-Line can't run block and made his team wing it as a consequence.

Every UK offense under Poops has been terrible save for the Coen year that was kind of passable.

Can someone make me an avatar of Mario in a top gun style flight suit? You know since he’s gone AIR RAID!

 

[troyskiles]

I hated everyone when I was drinking man. **** I hate myself sometimes on here when I throw out negative crap.

I just hate the unnecessary negative bs like people bashing players who haven't played a snap here and coaches who haven't coached a down.

✂️ Right here with you, my friend.

Wow....ever since we learned about Dawson I've been watching highlights of his offense and this dude is everywhere.
Isn't this Dell fella from Daytona Beach?

Have you heard of josh gattis?

I’m not saying Dawson sucks but coaches ride coattails all the time…and can fall on their face when they are on their own
