    Huh? Angry Ibis is the one who keeps beating the "but we could be 2 games worse drum". I'm one of the few who pointed out that it could go in either direction. Two months ago (just prior to the final game), I posted about how we had gone from getting blown the **** out in 2022 to having much...

    Completely agree. This is the eternal battle. I can see both sides of the equation, how we came thisclose to 9 wins, but were also constantly tempting fate and putting ourselves into situations where a botched kneel-down scenario could kill us. But the mopes only see "we were 2 plays away...

    What in the actual ****? Yes, nobody got Ward. But the actual swing-and-miss was about getting a TOP quarterback ready to start NOW. Because Ward was the guy Mario hyper-focused on, the timing on the whiff is when Ward says "no", but we also did not get Howard or anyone else. This is like...

    Preachin' to the choir. I knew from mid-December that Mario had BAD tunnel vision on Ward, and it bothered me. Go back and pull one of the CIS Lives from mid-December, I actually used the words "tunnel vision" in the comments.

    Mike Ryan. And it was a couple days ago.

    Confirmed by whom? Barry Jackson? My sources say "yes". You don't have to believe me if you don't want to. I don't care.

    Or, the staff has a good handle on the things they can control, and Ward is still playing games. But I agree, Mario is playing a dangerous game.

    It's fine, I'm not mad at you. I was legitimately confused as to what was being asked. I wasn't sure what part of "Mike Ryan's report" people felt was accurate/inaccurate and what part of either Ryan's words or my comments DMoney was agreeing with or not agreeing with. Very confusing. But...

    So bacane always tries to oversimply and post "gotcha" responses? Give me a break already. Nobody said what you are trying to get me to say. I'm trying to post factually accurate counterbalances to things that have been "reported" that might have some elements that are not so correct, and you...

    I have already NOT paid UM any royalties over the past couple of months. Whoops.

    Please show us on the doll...where the bad man touched you... Soon. Twenty-one days. Or less. Thanks for posting a larger version of the calendar date I've posted for the last 2 months.

    We don't "have" a QB. We will have a transfer QB or two soon (though I think it will be one with Jacurri coming back). Should have taken a transfer to replace Garcia. Didn't. Not sure that taking two in January fixes that old mistake.

    Completely true. Any porster can, a year in advance, make a prediction. And they could be right. But that is completely different from taking the "process" roller-coaster ride. Some days, Miami is in the lead, and other days we are playing catch up. That does NOT mean "the kid was never...

    Swing and miss

    I've said it in other spots, but there are two areas where a staff can misread recruits. One is when the kid is being very SEMANTIC with his word choice, but the school believes what it wants to believe. Happens to The Gator all the time, because they are arrogant with their Flagship Titletown...

    Yes. The hope is that the team information is accurate (either now or in the near future) at a success rate that doesn't undermine their credibility. Because if the insiders doubt the team info enough not to repeat it, then the team can't get the info out there. Weird ecosystem.

    The stuff with Jeremiah Smith is a perfect example. On one side, you have binary porsters who want to spew the "he was never coming here" nonsense to protect their feels. On the other side, you have very specific information that Jeremiah Smith conveyed to coaches and/or players at THREE...

    Exactly. Some porsters are trying to get some people to argue against other people. It's unfortunate. DMoney is da gawd. And even Cribby will tell you that incorrect information gets disseminated sometimes. Happens to everyone, happens to the best.

    At some point in the transmission of information, changes may be made. Not sure when/where the info became less valid.

    You're a lawyer. You know there are a few gray areas and technicalities in what you just typed.

    Correct. We didn't swing twice and miss twice.
