CB.. I held my own in Broward county as a freshman. True story here... In high school after I moved to TN we went to play West HS in Knoxville, probably the fastest team in the state that year. Probably 80% black guys. Coach made me wear black leggings, black sleeves, gloves, and a face/neck cover and switched jersey numbers with our other starting corner, same last name but, who was slow and they knew couldn't cover their top guy. Knew they probably wouldn't throw my way because I had 9 interceptions on the year. So we basically shut down both sides of the field in the pass game. Reported the number switch on the roster and everything and they didn't check it to know.

Sadly Manny Diaz was calling our D that game and they had 4 different guys run for 100+ on us that day so it didn't matter.

What high school did you play for in Knoxville?

There is simply no way you're a real human. This has to be some kind of bot. Not even the nerdiest nerd in Dweebville is fascinated by a new tax law.

Ha!

I'm not as fascinated by the law itself as I am...the impact on my alma mater, my teams, other big-time donors that I know, etc.

But I appreciate you!

(is that something Chat GPT would say?)

let's be real about this. Mario probably ruined TVD's career last year. hired a horrible OC, put bad talent around him... an absolute nightmare season for a potential high draft pick at QB. the only way it could've gone worse for TVD would be if he had suffered a career ending injury. instead all we did was **** up his throwing shoulder.

the fact that TVD was even going to come back this year told me one thing: that there wasn't a more attractive scenario available to him in the portal. because why would he come back and play for a coach who in all likelihood ended his chances of being a pro quarterback? so if TVD actually does have real options in the portal... why wouldn't he bounce? he played two seasons here, he doesn't owe Miami anything. he certainly doesn't owe Mario anything. Shane Dawson and Colbie Young are dime a dozen as far as OCs and no 1 WRs go.

can anyone articulate a single reason for TVD to stay beyond loyalty to a bad football program? my one response would simply be if Ruiz pays him more money than he could get elsewhere. but even still if I was TVD I'd be thinking really hard about whether that short term money was worth the possibility that my future prospects are damaged even further.

Lol Mario ruined TVD?

And Mario put the talent around him?

Emory is a true Freshman. Just because he didn't **** all over himself in the Spring Game doesn't mean he is ready to be a starter. Not to mention, what happens if he gets hurt? If TVD transfers we are going to need to bring in another QB. You could argue we need to bring in another QB as a back up even if he stays.

Agree with all said. But unless we’re going to get a different maker at QB, I would much rather see get the 2024 additions started early.

I mean sure but even with shattis he was throwing it directly to defenders the man couldn't throw underneath. It's as if he just doesn't think lbs exist. He got on the radar as a 1st round pick but still needed to put a season together and plummeted with his play. I know gattis sucked *** but there is still a percent that falls to the player and he couldn't get it done. Not saying hes not good just saying he wants the treatment of a Bryce young or stroud but hasn't given us that type of play at all.

Exactly. This dude out here asking for a pay raise when he was trash last year.

Business is cutthroat but it seems one sided because I guarantee when a player plays trash one year he will still demand his full compensation even if he has no legitimate excuse like TVD.

I’ll just leave it like this and be done. Miami wants him to stay and he’s the priority, but if he does leave there’s multiple options and imo are good starters. I lean he’s staying but one way or the other it needs to be over and fast.

At this point I’m more annoyed that TVD hasn’t squashed this rumor… either stay and shoot down all the rumors and help recruit your help around you to come or leave and chase the “bigger bag” and let us lock in on your replacement and move on.

It’s been said but this isn’t helping anyone out now that it’s out In the public

When you charge for info it puts you in an awkward position , sometimes it becomes more about yourself / business than about the program you apparently care about. Sec schools media doesn’t do this **** because they know they’d be f’d if it happened, you’d lose access. I’ve seen it where I live.

If it puts Miami in a bad light or causes negativity on the program why report it or leak it ? This is just more fuel for the narrative. This negotiation has been going on for a good minute and nobody said anything.

Once again, this beings nothing but negativity to the program and TVD. Our media has always done this going all the way back to Lebatard putting a gun to his alma maters head and pulling the trigger.

Exactly…you pull this stuff in Athens or Baton Rouge and you’d be excommunicated.

But it’s just another day when it comes to the U.
