Barry J. article summary on "behind the scenes" problems.

[Go Canes!!]

Is Barry saying our QB room is full of burnouts?:

But conversations with multiple people around the program, including a veteran player, say there’s another issue, particularly in the quarterback room, that must be fixed. And UM is working to achieve that.

That player - and other sources around the team - say a few players seem more concerned with partying than focusing on football and that a handful (including a prominent one on offense) broke curfew the night before the FIU loss to go out.

Pretty brutal indictment on this regime. Diaz needs to get his **** together.

Can someone post a summary? Thanks

Man.

We have a major, major culture problem.

That was a sobering read.

 

[Genghis Cane]

This column was eye opening. We complain about the coaching a lot, but we also have a roster full of apathetic players. At some point, some leaders need to step up and raise the accountability. It’s clear the coaches can’t handle that on their own.

Jarren is a Cancer

Wow smh

 

[Silentobserver]

Players seem to be aware that their teammates don't care. The players who are aware of this issue/the disease are as much to blame as those who just don't give a ****.

If Manny Diaz is going to fix the culture at Miami, then he needs to be willing to cut bait on these kids. If Manny isn't willing to sacrifice individuals for the greater good of the program, then he will ****-canned before the 2021 season.

 

[joseermonfils]

I know we get on the coaches but these kids are not it either some of them need to go

 

[Bird4um]

More roids less weed

 

[Cane4L]

My biggest takeaway is that the players don’t respect Manny. Also, we need to clear out that QB room.

 

[Bipolarcane]

Hopefully these young man get all the help they need if they have a drug problem.

 

[Poptimus]

The offense played the entire season like it was sipping lean before games.

 

[Cane4L]

Embarrassing

Jarren Williams is a pothead

 

[SpikeUM]

My sense is that "drug testing" is being used as a cure for poor discipline. Most kids today smoke weed, that is not the main issue. Not being prepared, focused, hungry etc. is the issue. And yes part of that is on the kids, but the larger part is the poor discipline. Having a stronger drug policy will not solve apathy.

 

[joseermonfils]

Manny needs to be tougher and show these kids he means no bs but Jarren especially needs to go...
