    You (personally) are incapable of differentiating between "what the coaches are doing poorly at" and "oh my God, the coaches are negligent because they didn't offer a 3-star kid who wanted to change positions". Once again, 63 other Power Five programs didn't offer Atwell, but Miami is the only...

    Butch did not have a secret method for projecting position changes, because he did not rely on a ton of position changes. Also, Warren Buffet doesn't coach football. As for what Butch and Pete did, they made 5x7 index cards on every player in South Florida, they went out and talked to all the...

    You've split the atom. All we have to do is go out and find a guy who can run fast and change directions. That guy will single-handedly reinvent football. ****, we've been too obsessed with recruiting slow guys who can only run in one direction. If only UM could afford to hire Coach Macho...

    Hilarious. Here's some shocking news for you...NO recruiting service gives a WR rating to a kid that plays QB. Regardless of size. Mind...blown. The whole "size" issue is just you whining. If Atwell was so fired up to play WR...hmmm...let's see...he could have refused the QB offer from...

    Again. To be clear. My "fallback excuse" is not, and never has been "but he was higher rated". I am using that as ONE out of several data points. And I am asking ANYONE to provide evidence, and make the argument, that overcomes MULTIPLE data points that give the edge to...

    Again, we can debate this thing in circles, but... If the problem was ONLY "the recruiting services" and their "misevaluations", then you would see the brilliant coaches at Alabama and Clemson and Ohio State uncovering all these 3-star diamonds in the rough, and proving to these "recruiting...

    I don't care if we do things differently, I'm fine with it. But kids have to also be willing to do camps and get video of them performing other skill sets if they want to get full consideration. Not once have I heard anyone say "but TuTu had this amazing film of him playing WR that the Miami...

    I never said anything was "justified" in 2018. I said that Miami did the best that it could and got top talent. OK, you want to be calm and logical, let's roll with that. In 2018, per Rivals, Miami had the #6 overall ranked recruiting class, with 23 commits (and I know some people will argue...

    Oh good lord. "Misevaluate players"? Again, I pointed out that the academic disasters on your list were NOT EVALUATED at all. So I actually agreed with you on that, but you can't handle it. As for your insanity on Travis Benjamin, stop being a fvcktard. Benjamin was the #166 rated recruit...

    Antonio Brown, John Brown, and Chad Johnson all had serious academic issues and/or JuCo careers before finally succeeding in college. That doesn't mean they were not talented, just that they missed out on opportunities to go to a 4-year school NOT because their talent was overlooked. Eli...

    Yeah, and before that? Outside of Dale Dawkins in the 1980s, pretty much nobody. Miami has never been "known" for converting HS QBs into WRs. That has never been Miami's "thing". Randal Hill was a cornerback at Killian. Here's a list of Miami's all-time receivers (includes TEs and RBs)...

    What a dope you are. All of those guys had tremendous HS talent coming out of HS. I responded to a comment about how schools have to do more panning for gold to find undervalued players when they can't sign top talent, and those three years Miami signed a lot of top talent at WR. Funny stuff...

    I think Elijah Moore was the better prospect and better college player. TuTu had a great 2019 year.

    When? 25 years ago? Name all of Miami's "converted HS QBs" who played WR. I'll wait.

    You're full of ****e. That was NOT Miami from 2016-2018. Miami signed Ahmmon Richards, Sam Bruce, Dionte Mullins, Michael Irvin as HS WRs in 2016. We signed Jeff Thomas, Mike Harley, and Evidence Njoku in 2017. And we signed Mark Pope, Brian Hightower, Dee Wiggins, and Marquez Ezzard in...

    Look, you are so full of ****e, it isn't even funny. In one porst you argue (in capital letters) that Atwell was THE MOST EXPLOSIVE PLAYER IN THE STATE. You know, the State of Florida, which is the third largest state in the country, and produces the greatest number of Division I football...

    Go ***** yourself. Atwell was in the Top 750 players. Schools can sign 25 players per year. To oversimplify for a moment, that means he could conceivably expect to snag an offer once the Top 30 recruiting classes are filled up. Which means (roughly) that Atwell would have been considered a...

    Look, for 20 years, Miami has always had a brigade of fans who tout every 3-star SoFla kid as some kid that "if only Miami offered him" would become the best player in UM history. I understand that, and I'm not knocking it. And I'm very happy that Atwell developed into a fine player. I have...
