If you read the bottom half of that article you'll understand why someone might do that.

No. More likely around #18.

Mirvin maybe spot on . we threw in the towel last three games .
We do have something to prove no doubt.

YES we’re loaded but a loaded gun means nothing till you know how to use it .

15-18 a good place to start , we’ve proven nothing YET.

But I do believe we run the table though.

Idk but LSU is -2.5 vs us so naturally as a degenerate gambler I’m in the fetal position.
 
Preseason Rankings 2018:

Sporting News: #7
SI: #9
SB Nation: #13 (Pfft, yea ok)
USA Today: #9
Athlon: #5

#7 sounds about right to me...

Injuries on the Dl and qb play will tell everything. I’m not sure how good we are after losing 4 major contributors on Dl but I know depth is suspect.

If Rosier ( or whoever wins job) are decent and no injuries on Dl I could see 10 wins. That’s the ceiling imo.
 
I don’t want to be in the top 10 until we prove we can be in the top 10.

Beat LSU. All that matters.

This team has the potential to make the playoffs. Top 10 is underrated but a good start.
 
I'll take 9 for now.
6 of those teams ahead of us have made it to the playoffs the last 2 years.
PSU recently won a conference title.
Wisky just beat us in a bowl game.

Here's some CFP era stats:
In the last 4 preseason polls, the number of top 10 teams who finished there:
2017- 7
2016- 6
2015- 4
2014- 6

57.5%

The number of preseason top 4 (playoff) teams who finished there:
2017- 1
2016- 3
2015- 2
2014- 2

50%

Based on poll history, we have a 57.5% chance to finish in the top-10.
While were at it, we might as well take one of those 2 open playoff spots.

It’s legit to have doubts about Rick. What’s not legit is to have a completely closed mind like you do. To completely rule out any other view or possibility other than your very narrow view of what is possible is obsessive, bordering on blind hatred and fanaticism.

That is of course, unless you’re a rival fan.

Each and every one of your post is a bash. That’s all you do. Every single one.

You’re not a Miami fan. Why do you post here?

I played that game with the previous two coaches. I won't do it again, especially with a guy who came to Miami unemployed.

So I have to fully support the coach to qualify as a fan now?

I would say I'm more of fan than most because I'm not willing to settle for a re-tread.
No matter who it is.

He won't win like you think he will here.

Maybe some day you can teach me how to be a real fan. Maybe I should run out and buy his old jersey number, for starters.

I have no doubts time will prove me right. He ended the season on a 3 game losing streak and you prop him up like a hero. No thanks, I've seen this show before.
