Something I haven’t seen discussed is Dylan Joyce, our new Aussie punter. True Freshman, new to American football, first big game… the very first time he touched the ball, it was a jailbreak punt block and they got home. He must have felt like garbage to let the team down in this way, going...

Also UF sucks.

“Win the crowd” - Proximo to Maximus, Gladiator. One of the best quotes in movie history, and one of the deepest. In any sport, there is only one “winner” at the end of each season or tournament. Everyone else is a loser. What that means is that the odds are very much against you, even if you...

Full disclosure: never played offense in FB, so take this with a grain of salt. I did play FS, so somewhat relevant, I hope… From a mathematical perspective, a “check with me” offense leads to overloading the QB with decisions, reduces their pre-snap orientation time, and leads to hasty...

Real talk. Mario: I would rather, as a Cane fan, go 0-11 with 20 scholarship players who give a **** and leave it ALL out on the field, than 85 who don’t. This is a rebuild, and that means wins today aren’t what’s important (but don’t fücking lose to MTSU…). If there is a player that is...

I’ll leave the discussion to the football and execution of plays to others, but I wanted to address something basic: statistical probability, and reversion to mean. Before you roll your eyes, let me explain. If you have any experiment (rolling dice, flipping coins, etc), but limit the amount of...

Over and over I see individuals, coaches, even our current head coach refer to the football players as “kids”. They aren’t “kids”, and I say this as a father. Words mean things, you expect less from a child than an adult, and in turn they act accordingly. An 18-21 year old is a man or woman...

One thing I’ve been noticing, and wanted to discuss is that I don’t think NFL HC positions are as enticing for NCAA HCs as they used to be (I.e., we lost Butch to the NFL, etc). Salaries are still roughly double what they are in the NCAA, yes, but turnover is insanely high, sometimes as high as...

I know Joe has been here for all 5 rings etc etc (so was Kehoe...), but dammit if his voice isn’t like nails on chalkboard. I hope, for our next announcer, we get someone that uniquely represents Miami, that makes us stand out even on radio broadcasts. Was watching the UM/ND 17 highlights and...

Edit: some of you apparently don’t know how to read long posts, so I’ll write a brief summary up here: it’s totally fine to call out and bash RK for playing like *** on the field. It is NOT OK to celebrate when he (or any other Canes player) gets hurt. That is all. I’ve been reading a lot of...

Outscored UNC all by themselves. Garvin - 7 Jackson - 7 Willis - ATE!

Wins are the most important thing in the CFB season, followed closely by how you win. It matters in the polls, to recruits, to the media, and can have effects on a program’s perception for long after the game. Example, from ESPN: ESPN Week 4 Power Rankings

Last week, in the USA Today/Coaches poll, Auburn was ranked 7th and LSU 12th. After playing each other, LSU won and is now 6th, and Auburn only dropped to 11th... so in effect, they played each other, swapped spots, and MOVED UP. Of course, that win by LSU makes Miami’s only loss look better...

Feagles did quite well, especially considering that Toledo nearly blocked a couple. Edit: for the downvotes, you have to credit a man when he performs if you **** on him when he doesn’t. He had a 41.6 average, one inside the 20 (should have been 2), even though our long snapper was apparently...

No one in college football has earned the right to be unflinchingly stubborn except for Nick Saban, and even he has to adapt and improve. To have a coach(es) like Mark Richt (and Manny, Hartley, et al), who stubbornly refuses to acknowledge there is even a need to improve is baffling. I...

A total beast. That is all. We have 3 years with him, let's ride!!! EDIT: Link to punt block below

Wanted to hear some opinions on this. I’m from Miami, born & raised, and I’ve seen it go from 20% Hispanic/20% African American 60% White to now 85% Hispanic, 5% White and 10% African American. Immigration, higher costs of living, cultural friction, gentrification and development are pushing...

Braxton Berrios put the Canes on his back and **** near singlehandedly won this game for us. Get in here and show this man some RESPECT!

I don't have any "sources" and refuse to pretend that I do. However... Something is telling me we are getting Herman. What do you guys/gals think? Positives/Negatives?

31-20 right now.
