Life as a retiree has its perks. I am able to relax and watch the games without worrying about how I am going to write this one up this week. But every once in a while there is something that will draw me out and make me want to post an Upon Further Review. Getting one of the best QB’s out of...

Life as a retiree has its perks. I am able to relax and watch the games without worrying about how I am going to write this one up this week. But every once in a while there is something that will draw me out and make me want to post an Upon Further Review. Getting one of the best QB’s out of...

“Welcome back.” That was the succinct two word message I received from D$ the morning after the Clemson game. It wasn’t an indication of fair-weather fandom, but rather a two word message of solidarity. This program needed this win to “welcome back” the good vibes and the diehard fan base that...

In the past, Miami going on the road against a G5 school with a winning record would have been met with some trepidation. Not in 2023! Miami traveled up to Philadelphia and laid a beating on poor old Temple. How did it look on film? Find out below. First play and Mauigoa definitely jumped that...

What a weekend for this lifelong Miami fan (yes, I'm also a big Dolphins fan) as the Miami Hurricanes came out and put on a statement performance against SEC foe Texas A&M (after the first quarter). I’m going to walk through some of the plays of the game and simply enjoy what Coach Cristobal is...

Miami embarks on another new journey in 2022. This time under the direction of Mario Cristobal and a revamped staff complete with all the support staff of an elite SEC club. Miami fans are excited with the direction of the team and this was the first chance to see the fruits of their spring...

As the season winds down and the clock approaches midnight on the tenure of another Miami HC in the 2000’s, our beloved Canes looked to get bowl eligible against the Virginia Tech Hokies, who just happened to be coachless after they, too, fired their HC. How did it look on film? Strap in and...

For the second week in a row, Miami pulled off a win over top-20 opponent; this time on the road. How did they do it? Find out with me here at Upon Further Review. Watching live I was a little annoyed that McCloud didn’t sack Pickett here, but on the replay I see why. That’s the nasty I want to...

Miami is back in the win column and that makes writing these a lot more fun. How did it look on film? Keep reading Upon Further Review as we find out together. Carter covers the RB who splits out wide, Deandre Johnson wins on an inside move and pressures the QB. Forces the throwaway. (Not...

Miami put forth a good second half in their game against UNC but came up just short. How did it look on film? Follow along here at Upon Further Review. First play and one of the issues I see so often with our DL/LB group is how often they lose sight of the ball and just dive with their...
