I feel it makes perfect sense! Wouldn't surprise me one bit to see Tyrique play the Star position. He is perfect for it.
What I posted was done in real time regarding him. I had no malicious intent. A person that was there was letting us know how we was performing and I relayed that to the board. Either we want to know what’s going on with our players or we don’t. Good and bad…
Now if you wanna say that’s how narrative’s start, keep that same energy when Dmoney, Gary, Chris Stock, Gabby and other Cane journalists provide critiques to the players.
Thanks for the info!I didn't even know there was a family barbecue today. I just came by to watch practice. I get there, and there's hundreds of people on the field and I'm like
Few notes...
*Couch is really coming into his own. He's by far our most technically sound DB. His press man skills are awesome. Spoke to his dad for a while. Let's just say, everybody is glad that Manny is gone. With these new coaches, Couch can now play his game. He's comfortable and feeling rejuvenated. Look for a solid season.
*Chaminade boys looked good today. Haye is starting to make a few plays and Thad was toting the rock hard today. Second practice in a row that I've seen solid performances from these two.
*Steele went with some 3 Safety looks with Blades, Huff and Tae playing deep. Huff got his pic while playing middle deep third.
*X murders people in one-on-ones. He be cooking Blades a$$ especially. He had a case of the dropsies today though. (in scrimmage period) Killed DB's to get open but then let a couple go through his hands.
*Ladson is not a guy IMO. He did make a nice contested catch today but other than that, he leaves a lot to be desired at times.
*Keontra had a nice interception. I love his game.
*Avantae is just a plain stud. He sticks out to me.
*Some of us have been saying it for a while, and a few of y'all don't want to hear it, but James Williams is not a deep Safety. Steele is using him properly though (IMO). I saw him near the LOS a lot today, covering TE's. He's a good player, but he has to be utilized correctly. He needs to be moved around.
*Dare I say it, but Arroyo might be an early round draft pick at TE. He's a **** stud and really stands out.
*Defense got a lot of pressure on the QB's today. It also looked like Steele may have put in some new wrinkles within the last week. Anytime a new coordinator arrives, you have to spoon feed the players.
*A lot of people around Greentree think that Jacurri and Skinner are going to be special. They stick out for sure. We got some young pups on this team (Brown, Skinner, Moss) who I'm really excited about. I can't wait to see their development.
*I actually spoke to an assistant coach about this, but one of the things that struck me is how bare we are on the front-7 in terms of talent. I don't know WTF Manny was doing, but more than half of those kids don't even look the part. They don't even look like someone you'd want walking off the bus when you're about to play an ACC component. So many of them are either too short, too stumpy, too fat, too skinny, too stiff, etc. That stuck out to quite a few people I spoke to today.
*My last point is why I want us to calm our expectations. We still need a couple recruiting classes to even look like a Miami team on OL, DL, LB and CB.
*You know the culture here is special when you have legends like Bain and Ed Reed wearing aprons and serving barbecue. I literally had the greatest Safety of all-time serve me barbecue chicken today and I stood 2 feet next to Alonzo Highsmith while I ate it. If I wasn't such a fat a$s I would have framed that piece of chicken instead of inhaling it.
*I spoke to more UM coaches in the past week than I did in 4 years under Manny. And the more I go around Greentree, the more stories I hear about that pompous cornball. Good riddance.

Are you somehow implying that it’s too early to write this kid off? I mean, it’s April, what are you waiting for?Here we go.
Random comments based off of non-professional observations, literally just a few exploratory practices into spring, and already LT is a jag.
The over-emotional lability on the site is palpable.
You’re spot on, this is how these narratives start. There are just some people here who will always find a negative. At this point, the kid is still a work in progress which is fine. But some people can’t have that. And what’s the best way to downgrade a kid? Compare him to the best. So this kid isn’t as good as Vince. Another is no Sean Taylor. Sh*t, MFr was comparing a kid who’s still in HS with the greatest return man the NFL has ever seen. Nice job, there’s a 99.9999% he can’t live up to that. Now we’ve got a failure on our hands.Heard he got benched.
I didn’t feel anything, I was just reading the posts above. From he got benched, to we should not downgrade the comments about bad performance, all focusing on one guy maybe having a bad day.
Similar type of thing as people saying last spring that Garcia was the one, and should be the starter day one. Well not exactly the same, but close.
This is how narratives get started based on little information.

I think people want so despotic make a bold prediction that they can’t help but compare untested players to the greats. It’s annoying. Give them a f*cking chance.
Yep.Isn’t that kind of a red flag?
Coach Macho out here pullin a straight up Uncle move with his BBQ sixth sense - "oh, I was just in the neighborhood and thought I'd say h....oh, y'all havin a bbq? Naw, I couldn't...ok, just one plate"I didn't even know there was a family barbecue today. I just came by to watch practice. I get there, and there's hundreds of people on the field and I'm like

Wasn't the reason he came to miami because he didn't want to play star for Georgia and miami gave him the chance at cb.I feel it makes perfect sense! Wouldn't surprise me one bit to see Tyrique play the Star position. He is perfect for it.
The best ability is availabilityIsn’t that kind of a red flag?

In your opinion Better than Robbie?
Knew a guy back in the day who would do missions at our “sister high school” in Haiti - ended up bringing a girl back, married her like a good little Catholic, caught her one day “red handed” playing those games - still makes me throw up a little in my mouth every time I think about it.If she made you a dish with red sauce right after that, I hope you didn't eat it
Lol alrightIt's Haitian restaurant up in the Citadel in Little Haiti. They really just do a bunch of random Caribbean plates. I just offered the fake NIL because those are my two favorite dishes from it. Don't take it so seriously, buddy.
You see this all the time with QBs. Like now, people raving about Garcia. Assuming TVD leaves after this year and Garcia stays, the expectations will be sky high for him, and the raving about Brown or whoever we pick up this cycle will begin. There are huge expectations for every single kid, and we all know most kids don’t ever become stars. So all those guys who are in the rotation and helping the team on the field are still failures because CiS porsters decided they should be all-Americans. Then they show up on a list of players CiS wants to hit the portal.Thank you for getting where I’m coming from. Apparently I wasn’t getting through. Has nothing to do with somebody reporting someone had a couple of bad plays or a half bad practice, more has to do with then how people take that and twist that and start weaving their narratives.
You’re already seeing it here. I just noticed in some later posts where they were talking about “well LT was suspect” or something like that.
If you’re at a hatian restaurant thats selling other carribbean food then you are at the wrong Hatian restaurantSame, never been a fan of Haitian food. There's a reason these Haitian Restaurants are selling other Caribbean cuisines.

He did the same thing with a certain LT that everyone swore was a guard at Oregon. Some first round draft pick names penei sewell or some ****… I just know I trust any opinion Mario has in the trenches.Doesn’t seem like anyone other than Mario thinks moultrie is a dt. Lichtenstein is an ok start, but would love a dt or two at the same caliber as agude.
