If I played for the "U" this would get me ****ed and motivated enough, to at least win the Coastal Division....To add insult they have us as a possiblity of playing Indiana in the Arizona Bowl after another glorious 6 win season.

Few coaches in America occupy a hotter seat than Golden, who is 28–22 entering his fifth season. The Hurricanes lost four straight to finish 6–7 — UM’s third losing season in the last 35 years. He recruited well through a lengthy NCAA investigation, but fans howl that the program keeps sailing further and further from the glory years.
This year’s team is young, after losing a host of NFL-caliber talent, and has to battle a brutal October stretch that includes Florida State (in Tallahassee) and Clemson. The Canes haven’t played for the ACC title since joining the conference in 2004, and it doesn’t look like this will be the year.
The ‘U’ stands for ‘Underwhelming’ now, and if Golden doesn’t produce results this season, he might be looking for work elsewhere.

Wow that bolded line **** me off so much
 
Why would something that holds true **** people off?

If it's true, why get upset about it?
 
People are expecting a 7-6 or 6-7 season and you want to be higher ranked than 43rd?
 
last year's preview:

Wins range: 7 to 9
The Coastal Division is there for the taking for Miami. The Hurricanes have the pieces to win the Coastal, but a questionable defense and an uncertain quarterback situation could hold this team back in 2014. Golden has assembled the No. 2 roster in the ACC. Assuming running back Duke Johnson returns at full strength, and the defense shows slight improvement, Miami should be the favorite in this division. The schedule isn’t too taxing, but a non-conference date at Nebraska will be tough, and the Hurricanes won’t be favored to beat Florida State on Nov. 15. Miami has increased its win total in each of the last three years. Will that continue in 2014? - See more at: Miami Hurricanes 2014 Spring Football Preview | AthlonSports.com
lmao, these writers don't know ****.last year we were supposed to win it all and paul johnson was going to get fired.
Hopefully their "hot streak" continues, golden wins 9 games and leaves for another job.

Yeah, we've been saying "this **** would **** me off" for 10 years now and it never does ****. The players talk a big ******* game and then wilt against anyone halfway decent.

He sound like he read this msg board before giving a summary

Brad Kaaya needs to make enough plays to win 9-10 games. He has a run game and weapons to distribute the football to... OL is the issue.

Special teams has to improve, which I think will happen (Vogel, Badgley, etc.) -- our return game can't be worse than last season

Defense has some potential and depth, but is unproven. I like our frontline CB's and DE's, including ****y Chad T.

Go Canes!
