Not a chance in ****. As long as this program is run by this coach, this AD, and this administration, a good year for this clown show will be anything barely over .500 (including the inevitable donkey bowl loss).
 
They don’t know what we know...baker is still Our DC. and I’m not sure which is more unlikely: beating clemson or bama, or winning 11 straight. No way in **** we make the cfp next year. I think 8 wins Is our ceiling
 
Get ready for a lot of hype this off-season. Deserved or not. We return possibly the top QB in CFB to a team that spent the whole year in the top 25. We will be preseason ranked around 10 next year
 
Why can't we play Bama like the old Miss St and Ole Miss teams???? Not necessarily a shootout but a close game decided in the 4th. I have zero confidence we can beat Bama at this point unless CMD is able to pull an elite DEF mind and do away with Mr. Baker....if he moves Baker to Safeties coach to try and remove his coaching inadequacies from the Front 7 he's making a terrible mistake....one that might be the straw that broke the camels back in his quest to return Miami football to being elite again.

Side note: not hearing anything from Patke it sounds like he'll be the LB and ST coach....he gets a lot of unwarranted heat but I think he's done a B+ job with our STR with room to grow. Just don't know if he can handle ST and the entire group of LBs....

10. Miami Hurricanes​

    Miami is very likely going to open the season 0-1. Not only are the Hurricanes facing Alabama (in Atlanta), but they're going to do so with a backup quarterback or a starting quarterback who is barely eight months removed from surgery to repair a torn ACL.
    Put it this way: If D'Eriq King leads them to a win in that game, we might as well end the Heisman Trophy debate right then and there, because it would be one of the most memorable regular-season results in recent history.
    But even with that presumed loss, Miami will have at least a faint playoff pulse.
    The Hurricanes should be the second-best team in the ACC, and they won't have to play the best team—Clemson, in case that's not obvious—during the regular season. Unless Florida State takes a big step forward or unless North Carolina remains a New Year's Six-caliber team despite losing its top four skill-position players, Miami very well could finish the regular season on an 11-game winning streak.
    The Canes might need to do that just for the right to face the Tigers in the ACC Championship Game, though, which would be rough.
    How it boils down: Miami needs to beat Alabama or Clemson—and avoid a letdown in the three months in between—to have a shot at the playoff. The Hurricanes might be one of the 10 best teams in the country next year, but that is a challenging mandate.
I’m so ******* sick of this continued year in, year out BS off/pre season hype. We don’t ******* deserve it, havent for many, many years and it’s ******* tiring already. When is the media gonna wake up to the fact that no one in coral gables gives a Fvck about winning at the highest level. How many times do these media predictors that always say we’re gonna win the Corstal and of course we never do, have to get suntan U egg on their faces before that start saying prove it before we give you any hype. Smh
 
If potential had a value, we'd be rich from the last 15 years.

We’ve been the dark horse dang near every year.
We have always been over hyped and ranked. Coastal darlings picked to win it yearly only to implode down the stretch. We live off our past.

maybe this year we break the 20 year cycle.

although UNC is going to be picked to win the coastal
