And in all fairness to those who have previously complained about those "extensions"... The extensions didn't prevent us from firing those guys at approximately the same time we would have fired them anyhow...we didn't pay all of the extensions...and the extensions didn't involve unwarranted...

I have provided the evidence in other threads that Miami has not been "cheap". Anyone can disagree with Shalala's preference for "up-and-coming young coaches" like Randy and Fat Al, but being "cheap" is not the issue. We paid Coker very well. We paid Richt very well.

We just have to keep taking our best shots possible. Hire the best AD possible. Do the most research possible. Try to stick to a culture or a standard whenever possible. But we shouldn't be giving the gun to a fvcktard like Beta Blake. That's just asking for a bullet to be fired into your...

Better. But you can do even better.

How many schools have hired THREE CONSECUTIVE COACHES who each won national championships? I'm fairly certain that it is unprecedented. And Butch would have made it four, if he had stayed.

Don't fall for the banana in the tailpipe, @RVACane . We shouldn't forget that Beta Blake made that rapid-fire decision, without pursuing or interviewing any other HC candidates. I don't know if Manny will become the next Nick Saban or the next Lou Saban (1980s era Lou Saban), but if anyone...

I have no idea, but with the number of heel-diggers that we have on this board, I don't expect that many will ever admit that their predictions were wrong. I don't know if this is a generational thing, but I don't understand some of the extremism by certain people. I started at UM in 1986...

Hot Dog Heaven? A new place just opened in Altamonte, "Chicago Dog and Co" and they've had long lines for 2 weeks. The other day, their bread delivery truck was delayed, so they did a Chicago Beef Poutine, put it on Facebook, and sold out in 2 hours. The opening of Portillo's (down by Sea...

Nope. Nobody feels that way. This is just more Mope Mythbuilding.

You down with APP? Yeah you know me.

We shouldn't be forced to compare 2021 to prior years. We should be able to analyze 2021 on its own. And aside from Alabama, all of our games are winnable. This is not a schedule that has Alabama, Clemson, Ohio Taint and Jimbo-era F$U on the calendar.

You need to give me the thumbs up in my post, I am desperate for more trophies. Just kidding...and I love the big-fish/bait-fish analogy.

Exactly. 2021 bowl games don't mean the same thing as 1981 bowl games. Times have changed. Time to move to an Elite Eight, and (eventually) a Sweet Sixteen playoff.

I would also say this. I could "forgive" a blowout loss to Alabama if we can make progress throughout the year and either beat Clemson at the end, or play them very close. Again, a lot of this is the "eye test". We could also beat everyone in the Corstal, but if it's only by one score in each...

:100:

I voted under protest, since 15-0 was not a choice.

This. That's why I'm a big advocate of an 11-1 regular season. After that, everything else will be a bonus win.

I completely agree with you, BUT I'm mocking those who act as if a loss to Alabama and/or Clemson will be a major failure on Manny's part.

You omitted: 15-0
