The Human Highlight Reel is back.

Asked and answered a million times previously. I thought we were shutting down these ongoing repetitive and baseless attacks against our coaching staff.

I agree. And there wouldn't be a civil war, or even a discussion, if some people who just hate a guy over...their feelings, I guess...would set that aside and look at the objective facts and stats. Anyhow, I've done my best to present the true numbers. If some people want to keep hating on...

Yes sir, I believe it was rainy before the game, I think I just had a sweatshirt. But, yeah, every time I watch that replay from the TV broadcast, I freak out when I see 10 defenders in the frame, all within 6 yards of the line of scrimmage. I think two of the worst "ref judgment calls" were...

Exactly why we should have called a timeout.

We have a few posters who, sadly, are NOT smarter than that...

You're wrong on both counts. Yes, he missed on 4 CBs, but he is not one of the worst recruiters to come through Miami (****, trust me on this, I actually spent some time listening to D'Onofrio recruit, and it was one of the worst experiences of my life). And Rumph is a very good teacher...

Rumph has been a pretty good teacher.

I can understand the situation with CJ, but with Quincy (and Marco) it's just bizarre. I certainly know that changes at a university may allow an alumnus to decide not to send his kids there, but how do "unforced errors" cause a freaking UM alum (Chad) to become so embittered towards his alma...

OK, and that's a very fair sentiment. That is something we can all get behind. I think Rumph has taken some steps forward by working with a performance coach on the recruiting issues. I'm not sure if, for 2020-2021, we just kinda said "hey, this is super-important, let's put all our best guys...

Sustainable? Position coaches and staffers move on all the time. Banda is still on staff. If you think everyone will leave all at once, I'm not saying it will never happen, but then you have to hire other guys. Losing 3 high-quality recruiters, and then immediately replacing them, would not...

Oh good lord, what a bunch of nitpicking silliness. I'm not going to spend much time on the chicken-egg argument when it comes to pass rush and pass defense. You know what leads to more sacks? Better coverage? So you can just take the one-directional nonsense and stuff it. Nobody denies...

I agree with you. I've tried to look at this from all angles. I've never said "Never fire Rumph", I just think we've had a lot of other problems, and he is not "Problem #1 that needs to be solved". I think he's a very above-average coach, but he has always been a quiet person personality-wise...

Happened right in front of me, my tickets have always been on the "away" side. I remember when I saw our defensive formation, I was screaming for the team to look out for Fields (during the pre-game warmups, Fields stood out to me for his height and he seemed to catch everything thrown to him)...

Not true. Pass defense stats have been posted. We can rail against missing on 4 CBs over 3 years ago, but you can't dispute the statistical production that exceeds the overall level (at least as evaluated and rated while in high school).

******* Schiano play-call. But, yes, that was a Rumph-Reed combo on that play.

Are you ******* kidding me? I provided a ton of stats and facts. I've observed Rumph coaching and I've heard plenty of sources (who are closer to the program than you are) talk of coaching specifics. Can I type that out the same way I can type out the NCAA defensive rankings? No. Just keep...

I think he's saying that Baba Yaga might start to help Rumph become a better recruiter. Ed is definitely more extroverted than Mike.

Are we talking about different Brian Dawkinseses? Brian Patrick Dawkins Sr. (born October 13, 1973) is a former American football safety who played 16 seasons in the National Football League (NFL), primarily with the Philadelphia Eagles.
