    "Hurricane Flashbacks" / 2001, 2002, 2003 & 2004 Season Highlights [DVD Converts]

    Ripping more old Canes DVDs and uploading to YouTube to help kill some off-season time. Here's a 2005 compilation called "Hurricane Flashbacks" which features clips from 15 epic UM games (over a 90-minute span). Would've preferred more '80s game instead of so much post-2000 action, but would...

    Am I missing something (re: overall team health)

    We're obviously aware Omier badly twisted the ankle against Duke, but what about the rest of the team's overall health? Are guys good go go? From all these talking head previews I've watched about the Drake match-up, this ongoing narrative that the Hurricanes are "banged up" as a whole, which...

    Davenport's "The Rise For Five" Documentary / 90's Era Rebuild Focus...

    Everyone has seen the glitzy, well-produced Rakontur-delivered ESPN "30 For 30" docs on Miami; made for the masses and outsiders—a simple rise-and-fall-and-rise-again story that even the non-fan would be captivated by. Here's another plug for Najeh Davenport's "The U Reloaded : The Rise For...

    Using this week to convert some old VHS tapes to .m4v and just ripped the Ken Dorsey SportsCentury that only ran on ESPN a few times the week of the Rose Bowl. Also found an old 2000 pre-season "Drive For Five" tape that I'll convert and will add the link here—but for now, here's the Dorsey vid...

    Manure Diaz throwing shade…

    Manny sure is salty—taking a shot at Miami’s “Linebacker U” ways. Yeah, PSU had the title first and neither have cranked out ‘backers like they used to—but the Canes owned the title more recently and little butt-hurt Diaz with an indirect shot at Miami here. Total 🤡.

    Long-*** Read — Cristobal Hire & Seismic Shift For 'The U'

    ... could've shaved off about 1,500 words at the end, but had to go after Andrea Adelson for her weak-*** hit piece on how Miami handled the process with Diaz, Cristobal and Radakovich—where she worked in the phrase "rotten culture" three times in two paragraphs—weeks after a glowing piece about...

    Gonna Be A Long Off-Season With Those Playing CANESTRADAMUS...

    Too many topics to tackle regarding pie-in-the-sky head coaching candidates and potential AD moves, but can some of y’all stop with this Mack Rhoades III talk and this man leaving Baylor for Miami—as if that’s not a step down and the man won’t fall out of bed tomorrow with a dozen better job...

    PLEASE STOP WITH THIS FABRICATED "TOUGH SCHEDULE" NARRATIVE

    Some of y'all case building with that "toughest schedule in the nation" driven to try and buy excuses or Manolo. Stop it. Auburn's schedule blows Miami's out of the water regarding toughness: @ Penn State (#10) @ LSU Georgia (#2) @ Arkansas (#17) Ole Miss (#10) @ Texas A&M Mississippi State...

    Orange Bowl Boys ALONZO HIGHSMITH podcast REVIEW

    Finally dove into the OBB podcast featuring Zo a few days back and left with more optimism about this program, than I've had in a long time. Granted, the entire athletic department would need an *****—the BoT to get their heads out of their collective asses and egos checked, a REAL athletic...

    The Moves Of A Desperate Man (Navarro 'The Atlantic' Article)

    16-13 since the start of the 2019 season—2-5 in last seven games (wins coming against Central Connecticut State and a late field goal to top Appalachian State)—Manny Diaz is NOW "shaking things up", per Manny Navarro's blurb in The Atlantic: Without citing names of a few older places on Miami's...

    New Music Added To 'Dead Manny Walking' Tackling Dummies Video From 2019

    Tossed some more applicable music over that cringe-worthy WWE-style video from Dead Manny Walking tackling those dummies with "7-6" on the chest, only to lose out and go 6-7—including the Florida International upset and bowl shutout to Louisiana Tech. Que the clown cars...

    King Injury; Dream Scenario For Diaz / James / BoT

    Let's be honest, this is exactly what the University of Miami was hoping for—the perfect smoke screen to buy more time. With both D'Eriq King and Jake Garcia now out for the season, the Canes now have one lone option at quarterback—providing the perfect scapegoat for a double-talking head...

    Diaz : Liked / Accepted Versus Feared / Respected — Can He Evolve To Latter?

    I know there was some convo about victory cigars weeks back, but on a macro-level—curious what most think about Diaz’s psyche with players and a desire to be like / accepted, versus respected / feared. Sort of like the “are leaders made or born”—the general consensus is “made”—over time can...

    Canes Video Quarantine Time Killers—DVD Rips

    .... a few weeks back someone posted their haul of '83, '87, '89, '91 and '01 championship season VHS tapes from Goodwill. I mentioned that I had on DVD and would upload as some in the thread wanted to check out the footage. Attempted to toss unlisted on YouTube, but the 1989 video was labeled...
