    Moss will give both a run for their money. Everybody remembers Santana as a sprinter. He was the state champ and Big East champ as a triple jumper. LoL, and Butch got him to Miami on a track scholarship. Another rule change.

    Atwater is a great comparison. So is Chancellor.

    Amazing I forgot about Santana. If you look at his senior season returning punts, nobody was better, not even Devin.

    Raymond had been on him for 4 years. Dad is from New Orleans so Surtain had family in Louisiana. LSU was clearly the more likely destination. However, he was never an LSU lock. My thought was that was the presumption. Alabama had been recruiting him for at least 2 years. If you remember...

    As I recall Taylor almost flipped to Clemson or at least was strongly considering it. A kid like Taylor was going to be on everybody's radar. He was built like a man as a 16-year. I also recall he wasn't in the top 5 of Dade County football players his senior year. That in its own right is...

    Punt returns were very good this year between Thomas and Dallas. Punt coverage not great but our punting was embarrassingly bad. I'd like to see us to trying to block kicks. Richt was way too conservative. Hopefully, Diaz is more aggressive. Diaz needs to give Baker the defense and own...

    LoL, Hester and Taylor were recruited by Coker. There is only one Devin Hester, period. Miami has two stellar kickoff returners over the past 40 years--Tremain Mack and Hester. And only three stellar punt returners--Kevin Williams, Phillip Buchanon and Hester. We've had three guys who could...

    I disagree. Competent coaching wins 10 games a year consistently. Everybody is Miami is about winning national titles. Well, no ****, but.... My thought is how about winning the Coastal consistently so you can play the Atlantic Division, which should be Clemson 4 out of 5 years? Win your...

    Coming off a national title with $aban choppering in. Hmmmm. There is no loyalty down your way with the local kids. In their defense until Miami stabilizes and wins consistently and competes for the conference year in and year out this where we are at.

    You are not firing your defensive staff when it finishes in the top 5 nationally and improves year over year. I'm not convinced that anybody is safe if the defense regresses significantly next year. That being said I think the portal saved our *** this year.

    We were never getting Surtain. LSU took the hit on him. I do believe both visited Miami out of respect for Rumph.

    Demarcus came right from retiring. I guess Cooney would be a better comparison but he was an OC at Southridge. Is it unusual for a successful local high school coach to be hired as a position coach at the next level? Nope. Was he brought in to deliver the AH kids? I believe so. Nothing...

    I'd rather go the portal route and pick up a kid who can reasonably round out the rotation or maybe a kid who has to sit one year. You can test drive a grad transfer without much risk. Getting a kid who has to sit unless we can bargain shop isn't worth it. If the rumors were true, retaining...

    Michael Jackson was coached by Rumph. And you are going to tell me he didn't get better from 2016 when he was a rotational player? Let's see what Rumph does with his room this year. He's got talent.

    Are you going to tell me Jackson and Johnson aren't getting drafted? Although I see Johnson as a situational guy at best at the next level. I'm actually fairly optimistic on what we have on roster coming back. We need another frontline corner in this class, but we can manage. I am not losing...
