Manny’s a politician’s son and a defensive coordinator. He’s also a stat guy, none of the above would be unknown to him. Those play #s are horrendous and do not jive with expectations. It’s hard to come to any conclusion other than the one you came to without a heaping dose of irrational...

Those total play numbers..... FffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffFffffFffffffffffff

We have had some talent but by and large those are outliers. Even when we are crappy and losing South Florida 5 stars we still have RB, WR, and DB who can play with most anyone. That’s what Miami do.

No idea who my buddy is that you’re referencing. Also this intellectual angle you keep trying to sell for yourself is the message board equivalent of being one of the marks they bring on stage to intentionally suck the first few weeks of American Idol, except you’re genuinely selling it and...

I think that model is great for Georgia, so referencing Smart is asinine. Major Applewhite would rape me in a chalk talk but I wouldn’t have hired Mark Donofrio to run my defense. The human/philosophical side of football has made idiots out of many Xs and Os geniuses.

No offense but I hate that mindset. We have sucked for a long time relative to our talent. When we were good we were either innovative (especially on defense in the 80s) or had the best players (Butch/Coker). Dade/Broward kids are giving us the stink face left and right, we better figure...

You are approaching it as if it’s simply a decision to recruit nationally and then magically have a good OL. I’m looking at the reality of how hard it is to land elite offensive linemen nationally, even 2 or 3, let alone the 5-6 a year it takes to maintain what those programs do on offenses...

If you think Miami’s going to consistently get SEC-esque along the OL by simply starting to recruit nationally then knock yourself out bud. Let’s see how it goes. If we look like Bama up front in 2 years we will all be very happy. I feel like you should email Manny and suggest it since you’re...

He seems to be a very good QB coach and we will always have good skill kids - sharp guys can succeed anywhere if they are flexible so let’s hope he is. We need to hit a grand slam, or at least a home run, with the OL coach.

I feel great about that being our model. We should definitely go that way. You got it Sheldon.

Good Lord.

Please put me on ignore, best for both of us, if you think It’s a good business decision to bet on Miami consistently landing that kind of talent up front. That’s not what this area of the country does in enough numbers to sustain that model. Play to our strengths, not our weakness.

Re-read everything I wrote above and try again.

Idk who you’re referencing but it ain’t me. We have the same deficiencies that Miami teams usually have. We don’t have talented bigs or good quarterback play. This guy might help with the latter but the former is a pipe dream at UM. Makes no sense to try and be something we aren’t.

Absolutely. We will never have what those two programs have up front. It’s much more realistic to go for a Baylor on steroids approach at Miami. Or an OU model for that matter, who did more than fine against a Bama team many were comparing to 2001 Miami. Big 12 offenses do great against...

Aka what Miami has had the last 30 years minus the McKinnie era. We don’t produce the OL that he had to work with the 1 or 2 years he put up good offenses.

I’m gonna try to stay positive and just say that I hope you’re right.

This is a huge wasted opportunity, D.

Sweet! Let’s load up on 5 star OL and get to physically dominating people! The Miami recipe for success, no doubt.
