The university has paid too much money to wash their hands of Shanny in year one. He’ll keep his job until the banners and fans dressing as empty seats happen.
And that sir is the pure ineptness of the admin. How they thought it was a good idea to pay 5 plus million dollars to buy out this losers contract to make him our HC is ******* unexplainable. Smh the dude has never been a HC and is known as a terrible recruiter. This is a guy you give a few peanuts or beans to to be your coach and a prove it or your gone type contract. I ******* hate the the UM admin and BOt. Hate!!!

What makes you go WTF, is that they did no real coaching search. Fake James is the worst.
 
This is mannys fourth year not first. I think we have plenty of results to gauge the overall direction which is DOWN. Let’s not forget he came from a failed regime. He’s a corch and there’s denying that now.
I agree that he shouldn't get the 1st year head coach pass because at least half the team are his players he recruited. However, changes take time. We need to see the effect over a period of time.

I see two points where we will see what manny truly is. #1 how we look out of this bye if major adjustments aren’t made and I mean MAJOR. And #2 if this is the failed season it looks like what he does in the offseason which needs to be a full house cleaning of the JV coaches on the staff, most of which are his buddy’s so I’m not holding out hope. If neither of those two things are done then next year will thank god be his last.

Miami hired him quicker that a desperate guy at a bar getting a replacement date at 2:01 AM, after getting rejected at 2:00 AM.

Yes. But the defense was not the problem. I think the problem is that we're so young in so many key positions and it's just going to take time.

The coaches, including Manny have made mistakes and they need to be better.

The biggest issue is that Manny created all these expectations with his #TNM hype talking about playing at a championship level and to the Miami standard. To this day the team is not playing at either. In fact, they are worse than mediocre.

What disturbs me the most is that the team was not ready mentally for Central Michigan. They just showed up expecting to blow them out., but not mentally prepared. It really shows the immaturity of the team. No way you put up 20+ against Florida and only get 17 against CMU. We ran the ball on Florida and couldn't at home against CMU. That's guys not ready to play. It falls on the coaches and players.

These guys better get their act together against VT. Otherwise, the fanbase will stop showing up for games and stop caring. This team really can't afford another loss. If we lose another conference game and we're out of the Coastal race, the fans are going to check out.
Defense was a problem. We rack up numbers against weaker teams. How many offenses have raped many over the last two years?
 
It's OK to complain, but this fanbase is way too far out in front of its skis talking about firing coaches and the AD. You don't fire coaches until after 2-3 years of game results to gauge the overall direction of the program.

Fan impatience is a direct result of BOT incompetence for the last 15 years. Fake fans stopped caring long ago and left. We're still here.

We already had a bye week and came out sleepwalking.
 
The board loves Cam but what has he done to basically keep Lingard on the bench and warrant zero PT against CMU? Cam has been okay thus far but not so good to where Lo cant even see the field. Lo is definitely a transfer candidate if he doesn't get PT soon.

Wouldn't blame Hightower either.

If Manny messes this up, his tenure will be the shortest in UM history. We clown FSU/Taggert but Manny aint getting 3 years either. Hes getting 2 years to turn this thing around.

I agree 100% fam. It’s alarning that those 3 high quality players haven’t been playing that much. They should be in the two deep rotation getting half the snaps imho.
 
It’s pretty obvious that’s going to happen and then I can’t wait for the fans to say we don’t need them we need real canes and etc. For 20 years it’s been the same story around here it’s pretty impressive if u think about it.

Right..it’s like there are on some Al Golden **** where they’re ******* with playing time in hopes of making them stay here four years.

Those are 3 and done kids..

I have no hopes for a major adjustments bc they had a month to prepare for UF...two weeks to prepare for UNC & they **** the bed.
 
It’s not just about ditching it. It’s using it purposely. If your run game is ineffective then PA is not fooling anyone. If your run
game is humming then PA is effective.
So it should be a situational decision whether to use it or not.

We should have ditched it against CMU. The way they were lining up we should have spread things out and passed more. That would have helped the run game.

Running PA on 3rd and 10 is not fooling anyone. But I found the following interesting:

"There’s already plenty of evidence out there proving there’s no relationship between running success and play-action pass success … "​
Also
"That running more play-action passes gives the running game a slight boost."​
