🚨 BREAKING NEWS - KING PUBLICLY COMMITS 🚨 - The D'Eriq King Thread

Miami media, just line’m up and

If LSU or another $EC school wants him, he's going there rather than fool around with this dying Amateur Hour.

Bro how many times are u going to say the same sh*t before u realize no one gives a f*ck?

 

[CaneSince4Ever]

Don’t know how you feel but I’m going Chase Brice as plan B.

I'd kick the tires on McKenzie Milton.

fire manny

Which one?

I seem to recall similar optimism and enthusiasm when Tate announced he was transferring here.

Career TD passes:
Martell-1
King-50

I wasn't overly enthusiastic about Tate.
Not when his highlight reel consisted of 3 plays vs Rutgers.

I am ethusiastic about King.

Don't tell me to relax because I'm not panicking.

Navarro still jumped the gun on that tweet, unless he was told directly by King himself that he committed to Miami he shouldn't have "reported" anything, it was unnecessary.

miami gon miami!!! This seems to always happen to us.

LMAO he is announcing tomorrow . It is a reporters job to report the news . Everyone is reporting it ( except that one houston guy) . He is coming relax. This boards reaction to him not being officially a Cane YET is hilarious .

It would have to already be a done deal because he has to enroll by Tuesday. He would have filled out all the paperwork.

If he's announcing tomorrow and cancelled his Maryland visit with nothing else scheduled, then do the math.

I just wish the media would have kept it's mouth shut until the announcement, but that's their job to get the scoop before other media outlets.

So you're saying their is no chance the new oline coach can't improve somethings on the technical side that can lead to minimal improvement in the run game?

I'm saying current OL is DIII caliber.

Lashlee/Justice can POTENTIALLY "improve" their play with system/techniques better suited to masking their built in deficiencies. I'm not convinced it will be enough. They need several OL grad transfers to come to UCG--and fast.

"Spread" O concepts have been around for 60+ years--nothing new or modern...just today's effective flavor. A basis of blocking scheme is pass and run technique are identical (in most cases). This is used to "help" underperforming OLs in pass mostly by "hiding" from DL what is "coming".

Run blocking at point of attack and second level is still mano-a-mano.

Who on OL (today) does it consistently? They are all turnstiles.

Fun fact: B Starr's Ice Bowl QB sneak was an RPO.

I would too, but it would be an epic letdown to have to scramble for Brice after having King basically in our clutches.

Curious why you feel he was in their clutches??!?

 

[ghost2]

He never got the chance, so who knows what he would have done. I just remember how excited everyone was when he came here last year.

I think the biggest difference is that everyone was excited about Tate's potential, and everyone is excited about King's production.

 

[jmcanes22]

If he doesn't commit by Tuesday he's not coming.

****** Navarro just had to send that tweet smfh...

Manny Navaro has earned the right to send that tweet out. That dude has been covering Miami and has been a fixture for a long time. He loves the school as much as anyone. If King is that big a pu**** then go elsewhere.

Stop with the “It has to be about me” sh**. You already went through your spot light ceremony three years ago. Then lied and quit on your team this past year. If you are coming then let it rip. If not beat it.

TVD is going to move you to slot receiver anyway.

 

[NC_Canes_11]

This kid is gonna destroy the coastal. If Perkins did what he did, can you imagine what King could do? Perkins is like a homeless man’s King.

Take is ******* trash and is a peasant compare to King, mfers be saying the dumbest **** some times

 

[Notsince1985]

He is the 4th player to do this tweet . It is so obvious King is a Cane .

They all went to Burger King last night

 

[brock]

i hate people named manny, today doesn’t do anything to change that tbh ..

 

[canesdude]

It is starting to feel like Xmas In January.

Thank you sir, he may announce Monday on Martin Luther King day.

 

[OilCaneBoy]

Yeah, but Tate's girl is fine!!!
