And this is where the nail meets the hammer. So I was told what 2018 showed was that Manny’s defense made bad offenses ever worst b/c when facing us, they were even below their season avg. lol. OK, so let’s put it like this; LBJ has a pick up basketball game against me. Sure, I’m decent in...

Stats say the 2014 Hurricanes defense was the #14 defense in the nation in Total Defense. 🤔

Are you crediting Manny w/ all of this? Lol.

No argument here; which is y I would get upset w/ ppl caking up for Richt as well. So looking at Manny’s body of work, and imma just do a quick snapshot using “total” (although I hate this matrix): At Miami, he had the 57th ranked Total Offense & 37th ranked scoring offense (Kaaya in ‘16)...

U weren’t far off. Looks like he was a solid 23 during the ‘18 season. Like turned 23 before the season started.

Good stuff bro; I commented on the ‘17 season before in another thread. Man that was one helluva ride. Cardiac kids fa sho, but I would take that in a heartbeat. One thing that stood out was the body blows we took. Malik Rosier had an unbelievable comeback kid mentality that season, kinda...

Wait; was he really that old for the ‘18 season??

Great point; which is something that also needs to be taken into consideration as to the precipitous fall from ‘18 to ‘19-20. We know Manny’s defense is predicated on havoc & when havoc doesn’t work, then the 2nd & 3rd levels better be sure. Our LB recruiting has sucked since Diaz took over...

***Caution: LONG POST*** I think we keep emphasizing the ‘18 season & we’re forgetting the ‘16 & ‘17 seasons. So did some research: Miami was as follows in ‘18: -1st in Def Pass Efficiency -1st in 3rd Down Defense -23rd in 4th Down Defense -5th in 1st Down Defense -1st in Passing Yards...

One of the great mysteries in recent memories. Just knew he would be a stud at the next level. He was playing out of his mind in ‘18

Yep; u’re right. The 2018 defense was indeed elite. The only minor flaw was we were a little loose against the run, but everything else was top 5-10 that yr for the most part.

Good stuff my friend; however, I don’t think fans had a problem w/ Diaz’s **** numbers (i.e TFLs, Sacks, YPP); I would be more interested to see where Diaz’s defense ranked in T.O.P, YPG, and 3rd down efficiency compared to his peers. It felt like we bled a slow death often w/ his defense: 3...
