Blake Baker.

Just put the pieces together, it’s a puzzle.

Manuelito Diaz you son of bìtch you did it again!

NEW DC
NEW DB COACH
NEW DL COACH
NEW LB COACH

... NEW MIAMI!

LOL, aiight maybe we shouldn’t call it that, but you get the point!

Not yet.... but it shows he is willing to change things asap when it isn't working rather than keep on doing the same **** to get himself fired. We've had worse from tenured coaches who were already proven

 

[toolbox]

Not just yet

My Gawd

Defense always hits hard, fills the gaps.

Always stiff at the point of attack, he's a strong believer in getting a lot of penetration up front

T-Rob coaches mostly man to man, he doesnt come here blindly. More is going on than meets the eye.

THIS. Very understated post. There's got to be a ton of activity going on behinds the scenes. Very good to see the results so far.

Keep it going, Manny. Very encouraging.

 

[Cribby]

Just going to pass along some things I have heard over the past couple of hours regarding Miami’s staff following the news that T-Rob has been hired. I’m currently traveling between 7v7 tryouts.

- I know there’s plenty of rumors floating around that both Blake Baker and Jonathan Patke are leaving. I haven’t heard anything along those lines. I’m under the impression that neither one is being forced out and think that both will keep their current titles at Miami. Things could obviously change, and other opportunities elsewhere could certainly arise for both Baker and Patke, but I expect both to be back.

- I think there’s a good chance that Jess Simpson returns to Miami and takes over as defensive line coach. He might not be viewed as an elite recruiter, but a lot of people think he can get the most out of a defensive line room.

- A week ago I was told Demarcus Van Dyke was headed to Utah State where he would get his own position group. I no longer think that will be the case and wouldn’t be surprised if he becomes UM’s 10th full-time assistant. I do not know what his title would be, but believe he would work with the defensive backs. If DVD were to get that role, he would be allowed to get out on the road and recruit whenever the NCAA lifts its temporary recruiting dead period. That might not seem like a big deal, but he was one of the main reasons why Miami was in it two cycles ago for Fred Davis and finished second for Nate Wiggins.

- This isn’t coaching related, but I can confirm that Miami has spoken with Auburn running back transfer Mark-Anthony Richards. I actually have heard he’s the one that initiated contact once in the portal. Miami only has two spots to work with right now and needs a corner. It would be a lot easier for Miami to take MAR if they could bring him in this summer and count him forward. It’s unclear, however, if Ahmmon’s brother would be open to that. Oklahoma and Utah are two other schools that have had dialogue with the former Top247 recruit.

When all these twits in the media were saying Dvd was official to Utah State me and @JayCane20 both said that’s false. It’s not official. I’ll bump if you don’t believe me.

A couple twats on a message board continue to own the “pros”.

 

[ghost2]

My Gawd

He can't mean...

 

[BeastMode]

So Baker and Patke staying?

 

[TRick72]

Sorry but Steele who? I may have missed it

Lexington

 

[Cribby]

My Gawd

There’s talks of him being on Urbans staff but after that who knows....

i was told he would be gone by end of weekend if it was happening.

All the crybaby mopes are praying we lose to Bama in week one because they’re not going to have anything to ***** about this entire off season

Offseason is the season of renewed hope and optimism. It's kinda like being in a dream. Waking up to Bama will be like waking up to a 400 pound bearded lady, so this dream better be **** good.

Don't play with my emotions like that, C-Rib.

 

[fincane]

So Baker and Patke staying?

I think it is pretty clear that Miami's "reputable media" is flying blind. What Ivins didn't say in his Patke and Baker blurb is that he was told they would both be back. He's under the impression that they're both staying because no one has told him anything on it one way or the other

 

[aelmiami]

I’d prefer Steele over Muschamp. My biggest fear is Muschamp would leave for a bigger job at first notice.

 

[Canes91]

Lexington Steele, great defensive mind

Sounds good will sure up those HOLES in the secondary

 

[Cribby]

Yep, I forgot about you. Instead of me and jay being the road warriors I guess it’ll be the fabulous freebirds. There was three of them and there was the “ freebirds rule”.

Well, it's better than getting penetrated from behind by teams like UNC, so I guess that's a start.
