All of this was said about Randy Shannon.. and Manny Diaz.

I'm just saying wanting to succeed and being from here/ a former player doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of a coach's success. I think we all have learned that.

If that was the case our entire staff should just be those dudes that dress up like Darth Vader in canes colors every home game.

I wasn't here for Randy, but I know for a fact the guys who are saying this up Mario said the same about Manny.

But what if he went big game NFL hunting, almost landed the brass rings, and is still able to circle back to those types? Who says they are lost?

Honestly the ONLY thing that has happened since the day before we fired Blake James that has bummed me out was losing B-Mac today. But I understand it, he went HOME to coach with three of his best friends who gave him the call, at his alma mater, for the program that both he and his dad played for, where his wife is from too. Imagine if Mario hired three former Canes and they all ganged up on a UM player who is now a UF coach to come back to coach with them? We will survive.

There hasn't been a single other thing that has bothered me. This whole coaching search complaining is just that... message board whining to me. I've sure enjoyed watching Mario boost our talent level seemingly overnight. Kept 5 Manny's without losing anyone he wanted, and added 10. Now do I know that everything is perfect? Of course not (that's dedicated to a specific moron who tried to call me out today only to shoot himself in the foot). But why would I fill in the blanks with negativity when I've no idea? We could have a very nice staff right now. Briles types, etc. But Mario has been going for it. I like it. Waiting is the cost.

Could the delay cost us a kid or two? Maybe. Sure. WHO CARES? Could landing the right coordinators LAND us a kid or TEN next year? Yeah.

I'll say it again. Let's see how it nets out. And I won't complain a bit until I see where we are on February 1, 2023. By then we will have a staff who's been here for a bit, have had a chance to work the portal heading into this season, will have played a year under Mario, and will have recruited a full class with a decent amount of time to work at it. We will have an idea of how its going.

Until then I am very well aware that we are not going to do a full 180 overnight. That there will be adversity to overcome, pitfalls, landmines, mistakes, and regrets. I'll bet dollars to donuts there will be a lot more highs though, and I'll bet even more we take a nice jump in 2023. This is going to take a while, guys. A LOT of what needs to change are not overnight things. But I am 10000% convinced we have the right guy in charge.

To take a liberty with the timeline of a couple of related metaphors, there are Barbarians at the Gates, and Rome wasn't built in a day.

I am 100% behind Mario. As I once wrote, this isn't a job for him. It's a calling, and he will get us right or die trying.

Also whoever gave the Kevin Smith BS today oxygen can go fvck themselves.

Good points. I agree the roster is improved and will continue on a steep upward trajectory. I’m not worried about the staff, just the waiting and unknowns are new territory. Once he gets his coordinators, the rest of the staff should fall into place quickly. But like you said, losing Bmac was a downer.

I think you’re confusing settling with moving on. At some point, you have to say “ok, there’s too many things in play. Time to move on.” You miss more opportunities being short sighted on one thing instead at looking at the situation as a whole.

What opportunities did we miss?

What have we been short-sighted about?

What makes you think that Mario isn't seeing the whole field?

This is exactly what I mean, man. You're projecting. Some of you all need to go camping and come back in a week. By then we should have a LB coach (ZING!!!!!).
