Was just on XM.
Said that Miami has the talent to beat anyone in the nation.
They had the better team last year against FSU.
This year's game features around 20 players that should be drafted.
These teams are not too different in skill this year.
The culture is lost.
He didn't want to publicly talk bad about the coaches, but he said something was wrong with the talent and results.
Talked about how players used to stay in the same dorms as former players and would be called by former players and held accountable for their play. They had a standard that was expected of them from former players.
Talked about how if you missed a tackle or messed a play up, when you hit the sidelines the players tore you up.
Said the players need to ***** coaching and be leaders themselves. That's what they did and was what made a Hurricanes.
Said the defense is too slow and the whole team really is. Too much thinking and not enough speed and aggression.
Talked about Kaaya being afraid of throwing a pick 6 and going to OT. That isn't the Miami attitude.
Mainly they said the culture needs to change, these players need to realize what being a Hurricane is about, and the results need to match up with how much talent there is.
I agreed with pretty much all of it. I understand why a GM wouldn't talk bad about a coach publicly and think he said some things that could point towards the coaching woes.
Only negative is Jack Arute talking about the cloud. It affected recruiting. No, Al's 4 classes average out to be top 15 classes. Recruiting is not an issue at this school and never will be unless we completely fall off the college football radar.
