I would rather have Mario or Babers. Manny has not proved himself as a Head coach yet. Plus he is an Fsu alum, would he jump for that job when it opens?
why is everyone so hyped on Manny being HC? Manny didn't exactly light the world on fire with his recruiting while he was here.
We got the later years Uncle June as our HC.
Train Richt is truly teh woat.Mork thinks that the U has the same allure as it did 15-20 years ago.most of the kids we are trying to recruit were in diapers or a twinkle in their daddy’s eye the last time we were relevant.
They think that kids will come here to play just because we are the U.Sht don’t wok like that anymore.They think just because they talk to these 4-5 star kids they are locked in,they’re coming and recruiting stops.Its why they keep getting played and because they think every kid they talk to is Locked in they don’t have any backup plans then they get snookered.
I thought Golden was clueless about how to recruit down in S.Fla but he is Saban compared to this jackass and his staff.

The guys that burned us the worst this year are Crowley (Jacksonville), Tarquin (Ocala), Kingsley (Jacksonville) and Haselwood (Atlanta). And the biggest trolls were from Lakeland.
It’s hard to win battles in South Florida, but it’s even harder in enemy territory.
Before you know he will be up in the coaching tower before practice in a robe and slippers with diarrhea leaking down his leg screaming “Land ho!”.We got the later years Uncle June as our HC.
.We need to fix the real problem. Only Coach Richt can do that. Unless, of course, he's the problem.
Yep. LSU, which isn’t a dynamic offense, did what it wanted to our defense. The only time we stopped them was when they got a big lead and started running dive plays every snap to burn the clock. We didn’t slow BC down until they destroyed us 3 or 4 possessions in a row.
It was a very good defense against a very very bad bunch of garbage opponents. I wouldn’t call it a championship defense because any of the truly top teams in the country would have worked us.
It was good enough to win the Coastal again if that’s what these men mean by “championship defense.”
This class is a disaster. It hurts to say, because we have some excellent people in the personnel department and on staff. But there is no denying it. This is an embarrassing failure.
I went back and looked at similar classes. In 2015, we finished 27th. In 2016, we finished 22nd. Those were bad signing days. This one will probably end up in that range. There was a lot of dead weight in those classes. But we also signed Jaquan Johnson, Shaq Quarterman, Joe Jackson, Sheldrick Redwine, RJ McIntosh, Gerald Willis, Kendrick Norton, Michael Jackson, Mike Pinckney, Romeo Finely, Pat Bethel and Zach McCloud.
In other words, we signed a championship-caliber defense over two bad cycles. How did that happen?
The first takeaway is that Miami will always get good players. Even our crap classes have talent. But the real reason is even simpler: we replaced the problem (D’Onofrio) with the solution (Diaz). D’Onofrio's defense was the problem. We hired Diaz, and he unlocked a championship unit.
Which brings me to today. Once again, we have a clear problem. We have the 4th most efficient defense and the 79th most efficient offense. The results on the field are reflected in the class. Our quarterbacks sucked. We couldn’t sign a quarterback. Our offensive line sucked. We couldn’t sign any offensive linemen. Our offense sucked. We only signed one 4* on offense.
People are talking about changing Miami's recruiting strategy. That's nonsense. We need to fix the real problem. Only Coach Richt can do that. Unless, of course, he's the problem.
When Barry Jackson asked him about changes after today's practice, Richt said "we plan on getting better with what we already do." That's a shame. I don't want Richt to ruin his legacy, and I don't want to waste another couple years. But that's where we are headed. And it might be Manny Diaz coming back once again to solve the problem.

Great post. This is so obvious and yet it amazes me how few people see it.This class is a disaster. It hurts to say, because we have some excellent people in the personnel department and on staff. But there is no denying it. This is an embarrassing failure.
