I’m feeling less confident than I did yesterday evening. We’ll see. Nobody had conceded anything.

If I had to say I’d say UM. As @Udynasty can attest I’ve consistently heard UM and for a good minute.

I’d be more confident if the info was coming from more than one side or this things but it’s all I have.

Pretty sure it's been said he did not grow up a canes fan and that's part of the problem. He's never seen us be legit

Bruce Warner has mentioned it a few times on Locked On. I have also heard it from other people as well. And who cares if he hasn’t seen us legit. It’s been 20+ years since we’ve been relevant. I bet a good chunk of people on here haven’t seen Miami good as well

Unfortunately, you are talking to one of many on here that are delusional and emotional when it comes to unbiased discussion.

They read what they want to read, they process what they want to process, they ignore or feel personally attacked by what hurts them or makes them feel doubtful or concerned…which normally is the truth. Happens with every fanbase, no different with ours.

That’s just a separate tangent from this actual recruitment, the fact of the matter is just win games and this recruitment is wide open again. Show him something to actually believe in. Lanning landed the #3 class last year and he’s on pace to match or surpass that. Why? Same resources as Mario, but he’s winning on the field too. He’s winning by a lot too, apart from the Washington losses. His teams look good and well-coached, he’s used the portal very well too.

Mario hasn’t won at Miami yet, it’s a miracle he’s even been able to recruit as well as he has without any tangible results to back it up (while at Miami). We have the talent, we ponied up money in the portal, this roster is ready to win right now in 2024. It’s A top 10 roster in CFB, now it needs top 10 results.

Change the perception, and we’ll be more than fine come December 2024.

Isn’t like Oregon has been some top program the past 18 years.

define waiving. If you are asking if you should be around at 7 pm on July 17th? Nah you likely free to do other ****. If you asking if we are conceding the kid and moving on to others? **** nah

I don’t think there’s any doubt Mario is an outstanding recruiter but he’s not elite. An elite recruiter doesn’t let the best player in the state leave Florida 2 years in a row. One in his backyard and the other with family ties to the Canes. Frustrating

Even I’ll push back on that. Cmon now - what he did last year despite going 7-6 was absurd.

He’s an excellent recruiter. He lost top 3 players nationally to two programs that have won a lot more than we have, and are both coming off double-digit winning seasons and NY6 appearances.

Win games.

Who cares? Obviously he cares if its factoring into his decision. Or judging by how much his dad has been doing interviews he probably cares too

By your criteria, who is elite?

I know success has a lot to do with it but do you think Kirby Smart would lose the top player in Georgia? I will concede that if Mario can get us to match Georgia’s and Ohio State’s success we could have another conversation

Yes. Several of them, actually. You walked right into that one bud. I guess he isn’t elite either.
