Im not from miami but i cant understand how these kids and the miami community are cool with disrespecting the university of miami.

These kids would rather go play in front of a bunch of racist rednecks than stay home and bring Miami back to the top of college football. While Alabama, Oklahoma, and Notre dame were still playing whiteboy football Miami was bringing in local black athletes and changing college football. Does the Miami community not remember this?

The 2019 kids were born in the year of our last conference title so I doubt they recall OUs wishbone.

We need to beat the teams we have no business losing to. Never lose to a Duke a BC or a Virginia. Never under any circumstance. I think that is a good starting point. We also need to have consistent 10 win seasons. Once winning is restablished the recruits will come. Guys want to be successful and get to the league.

My point is with bowl season those recruits that haven’t already signed their LOIs are typically home for the holidays and watching bowls with their buddies. The way we play in these games leaves the last impression on people particularly recruits no wonder kids are shunning us. I just can’t grasp why we have been so atrocious in these games. It isn’t 1 coaching regime it’s multiple regimes. Something is seriously wrong with the preparation leading up to these bowls and Diaz needs to address this day 1.

Ya know ericane it's funny you mention that because I almost posted that thought during my initial post. It's hard to point to a singular moment in time where things changed but if I had to that would be it. If I remember correctly he was committed to us forever and then flipped at the final hour to LSU. Thus began a mass exodus of kids spurning us for SEC teams. Here's my problem, it's one thing to lose a kid to FSU stuff like that has always happened(and vice-versa), but I get really miffed when they diss us for these SEC schools. Tyrique even said recently that Athens was the most boring, god-awful town he's ever been to.

Agreed on the comment about FSU. I’d rather Miami and FSU be battling each other for titles than watching these fraud SEC schools.

There’s now been a full generation of top players from South Florida that have been bought and paid for by the SEC. At the beginning when we were on top, the Dwayne Bowes and Ricky Jean Francois were supposedly going there for “playing time”. How come that hasn’t applied to Miami these last ten years? The sad part is that this fraudulent system has now enabled Bama to match (and likely surpass) our accomplishments in the 80s-00s, and the worst part is that they’re doing it featuring Amari Cooper, Calvin Ridley, and Jerry Jeudy. Meanwhile Saban couldn’t do jack at Michigan State. The whole thing is really such a joke that it makes me wonder why I should even bother any more. I just hope those clowns plan on spending their post-football careers outside of South Florida because at this point, I feel like all of these traitors should be viewed with the same disdain as Nevin Shapiro.

You people talking like high school recruits getting paid started with Patrick Johnson. Lol.

Yes but the level that it’s occurring now vastly exceeds what was going on prior. The money that started flowing to these large state school with the implementation of the BCS opened the floodgates.

First, let me say I've been a fan of this program since growing up in Key West in the early 80's and have been coming to this site for years to get information, never to post. I've found this site to be the best when it comes to information. The reason I decided to post today is because I'm fed up - angry - ticked off at these local kids making a mockery of this beloved program. It's akin to a loved one, or family member, being there fsor you throughout your life, supporting you, and then you spit in their face and haul butt for money. You hear, "Well they're going to Georgia to win!." Win What?? What exactly has Georgia won in the last 30-plus years? Also if you really "LOVE" the 305 like you claim, why are you going to clown us on national television? Second, people say, "If you win they will come." How the **** can we win if they don't come in the first place? Want to become sick to your stomach? Sit down and comprise a list of all the local kids who spurned Miami the last 10-15 years. We'd probably have 10 NC's by now, no joke. What needs to happen is this: When these kids return to Miami like, "Wassssup, we all good right?", we need to turn our backs on them and loudly say, "Nah, it AIN'T all good bruh." We should have zero respect for these dudes and make our feelings well known. You like Athens so much then go live there, permanently, because you aren't welcome here anymore. Again, I've really enjoyed reading your comments for years now and thank you for letting me vent.

Thanks for your input and passion. I agree it rubs me raw seeing these kids jerk us off like this. But, these are different times. Back in the day very few major colleges would touch these kids. They were looked down on, coaches were afraid of these “Thugs”, until Howard showed the world who they were and what they could do. Which was to run you, pass you, beat you to death. And WIN. Times have changed, the game has changed. Unfortunately so has recruiting and the kids. A lot of these kids and families see their talent as the Meal ticket and look for what the see as the best opportunity to get next level, can’t blame them. When there was only one game in town, the U, they were all in. Not anymore. Sad, but WE, also have to change and adapt. Let’s hope Manny and Co. can do just that.

I agree that what Bogle and Stevenson did was really disrespectful. If they've known for weeks or even months where they were going, don't make it a point to troll all the local fans by making it seem like the U was still in it. Bogle in particular was a total diva through the whole process, then had the balls to make it seem like he might have come here if Kul had stayed, as if that was ever really a factor.

And before anyone starts ripping the coaches for not knowing or continuing to engage with them, just stop. It's their job to fight to the bitter end to try and flip them, even though they know exactly what's going on.

Never been one of those "Just shut up and sign" guys. Don't care about kids having their time in the sun. It's things like blatantly asking for Canes fans to follow him on Twitter while openly trying to build drama, to then troll your own local school that's wrong.

Kool couldn’t get a single recruit here. Now, he’d come if he stayed after our dl improves w the new coach
 
I didn't have schollys to choose from but ... when I was a HS senior, the last thing I wanted to do was go to college locally in New York. Why I went 1200 miles away to Miami. Many kids feel the same, even athletes.

They are a bunch of divas and this theory that we won with all s fla talent back in the day is nonsense. Texas, Cali, NJ, PA, entire NE, and La, all states we used to hit hard. So, go after the gimmies that are going to be Canes no matter what from S Fla, get them locked in and then recruit nationally. Sell Miami being far away from LA, Houston, or sell the tropics of Miami to all the NE kids.

This 100%! Shockey, Dorsey, Reed, McKinnie, etc. all came from outside of south Florida. It has abundent talent, but ignoring the rest of the country is not a great plan. You can find talented kids that will hold the U in high regards as long as you dont ignore them....like Darnell Wright from this year. But you have to have elite recruiters for SoFla to give you the best chance to win

No one here should be surprised, one to the two players walked away from a community and a high school he played for his entire life
to transfer to another school for his senior year, I'm sure all on his own and for a better education and ironically lost to the school he left in the playoffs. College coaches might need to attempt to vet character and integrity in whom they recruit or this will never end.
 
Maybe it is out there and I haven't seen it, but would be interesting to poll the top 300 recruits and ask them what honestly made them choose the school they chose. My guess would be.
1. Chance to win a NC within 3 years.
2. Chance to be coached properly to make the NFL.
3. Playing time.
4. Campus/Education.
5. Maybe bags here or something else.

Bottom line is these kids want instant gratification nowadays. They want a NC if possible. There is very little dedication to any school by 95% of these kids now.

Thoughts.
 
Let me try to help:
UM coaches.webp

Got it now?

This is why I’ve said forever- we should recruit nationally.

We don’t owe these ******* South Florida divas a single thing.

Kids today don't remember when Miami was great. Kids want to win and that is why Miami doesn't get great players. If Miami wants to get back to pulling 5 star players, start winning.
