I picked out 6 teams, going into week 6 of the college football season.
Iowa, 42nd composite ranking, 3rd in the AP poll,
Cinci 53rd, 5th,
BYU 93rd, 10th.
Mich St, 36th, 11th
Ok St 46th, 12th
Kentucky, 31st, 14th.
Miami, 12, unranked, losing record.
Our players are soft. Diaz personality has been smeared onto them, they go on social media and complain about fans and them getting criticized. They complain about fans not showing up. Yet they don't talk about the pain fans sit through watching UNC beat us to sleep at home giving up 800 yards. They speak nothing of getting tougher, of not being blown out at home. They feel sorry for themselves. They post pictures of other schools stadiums, or people saying how loud it was at UGA
When we played ND in 2017, their players said thats the loudest place they have every played in, they are players who played in the big house and at Penn State. Give the fans something to show up for. No you don't have to win titles, toughness, fight, punch someone in the mouth to swing momentum. Our RBs inability to break tackles is emblematic of our lack of toughness.
Aint nobody gonna guilt trip me into going to watch a bad product that makes my weekends miserable. We have nothing to be proud of as canes fan. We are a national embarrassment. Every game i take the hour trip to go to, and i always of to take off work, i feel miserable for days. And for the people who think telling people who stop going that they have no right to complain, that's hurting Miami more than the fans. Cuz you rather anger over apathy and thats what comes next.
Manny Diaz has had 3 offseason to change the mentality of our players. They claim its recruiting, no u can change the mentality, u dont need recruits to do that. We don't have a talent problem, we have a softness problem. And its coming from the HC. The teams i wrote above have no business being where they are even if i don't expect them to maintain it all season, getting there with their talent is an achievement. Thats through coaching, training and conditioning. Fans cant teach you how to block and tackle. You can't be a 5th year SR still taking bad angles and busting coverages, as well as diving into stiff arms instead of driving your feet. No fan can teach you that. No fan can teach you how to pass off a DL stunt so you wont get the QB killed.
If you wanna say fans can affect recruits coming, fine, have it. I would say the on field play is more critical. But ok, keep that. The players on the field though. They are soft af.
