Is it true that @Go Canes!! will be giving the team the pre-Bama game speech?

Same 8. Is that even a question?

Dunno. Variety might be the spice of life. Would you rather eat the same meal at a solid restaurant 52 times in a row or dine at 52 different chain restaurants?
 
What will be different this year from last year regarding stopping the run? We gave up 600 yards to UNC and we open against a traditional power ground game. With a new staff and the loss of 2 first round DEs what will be different this year for Manny’s Defense?

I have some best case/worst case for position groups over the course of the year.

1a. Lbs - What’s the best and worst case for this group, and how much does it help or hurt the season?

1b. (Same question for WRs.)

2. Lets pretend the DT unit is stronger than the DEs. To my knowledge that’s never been the case under Manny (excusing Willis by himself), so I’m curious how the philosophy changes on D if that’s the case.

3. I’m high on the DBs and think they’ll be much more aggressive, smart and assertive. If so, how does that impact the front 7?

4. Some fans were unhappy with the TE usage last season, while I think the stats (and my flawless memory) show they were used somewhere between an average to above average way. Who’s right? (A second complaint is that Lashlee didn’t utilize both TEs at once, as he promised preseason, but I think Brevin’s injuries played into that hesitation and limited his opportunity.)

2016 (arguably) DT > DE

Norton and McIntosh

but Thomas and Harris were also really good too.
 
Will our defense make any QB look pedestrian all year or will they all achieve Kenny Pickett status?

Fair point. Put it that way and I’d rather have 52 different restaurants 😂
 
How significantly has the Miami football operation been upgraded from the days of Al Golden, or even Mark Richt? From recruiting, hiring of analysts, and other moves I get the sense that there is a heavy amount of positive momentum that has been generated, and that while this has not manifested itself fully yet on the field, we've hit a pivot point to a return as a prominent program. Am I wrong?
 
I'd like your reactions to this hypothetical:

- We beat Bama in a classic game somehow...like 30-27, last second Andy Borregales FG wins it. We vault into the top 5 and are in Playoff discussion, and the recruiting class has multiple guys like Stewart, Singletary, Bissainthe, etc start jumping on board.

HOWEVER

- We end up losing 2 regular season games to ACC foes, finish 3rd in the Coastal. 10 wins, but 3rd in the division. Losses are mainly due to injuries suffered against Bama that linger on. Decent bowl game against a ranked team. Recruiting class finishes somewhere between 8th-12th in the country.

Given that - Are you happy with that season's outcome? Do you feel that Diaz's job is safe?
 
Who do you have on the Hebrew Mount Rushmore/Sinai?

I have in order:
1 - Mel Brooks
2 - Neil Diamond
3 - Moses
4 - Abraham

(due to conversion reasons Jesus is exempt)

Who do you think will finish second in the Heisman race behind a 15-0 King?

My questions:

0. Will this offense be the most productive at Miami in 20 years?
1. Why is our HC / former DC such a ****** talent evaluator and recruiter?
2. Is he actively working to find a TRob copy at LB coach for 2022?
3. Will Paranos ever kick his thick ladies fetish?
4. Assuming Nelson, Vaughn, Gaynor, Rivers, Williams and Scaife are our starting 5+1 OL, who are 7, 8 and 9?
5. Assuming Flagg is not good enough to play MLB and Brooks is not back from injury, do we mirror LBs and not have a true MLB?
6. Who are DE #4 and 5? Assuming McCloud and Harvey need help at DE, do we accelerate the schedule for Chantz Williams or move Roberts over?
