What if he wants to play Nickel cause that is what he thinks he needs to show on film?
What if he isn't playing nickel and that isn't our plan.
What if we have determined there is not any high quality nickels in the portal....

We should tell him we paid you to come here because u are a top outside not nickel. Make the change in the nfl not here

I never said it was true or not, i said i hope it isn’t true. One of the top reporters for us has said thats the plan tho

Just because we cant find a high quality nickel doesn’t mean we should make our best outside guy the nickel. Thats literally what happened last year and eventually we opted to play without a true nickel on the field lmao thats how bad it got

So you have already decided that because Porter sucked at Nickel that Brantley will also suck at Nickel because they both play CB? Got it.

Frankly I don't know what the staff's plans for Brantley are but he may be amazing at Nickel. Who knows? I'll let the coaches figure that out. Also, I'll spare you the suspense my friend. Brantley might get a look at Nickel during Spring but so will Dylan Day and definitely Damari Brown among others. When Amari Wallace gets healthy then he will get a look too.

No i have decided that the top outside corner we brought in should play outside. Got it?

Also im fine with cross training dbs everywhere, thats normal and should be mandatory. Don’t know why u thought that was breaking news here

It goes beyond booing- the stuff on social media and this forum was weirdly personal. People were frustrated with the program in general and took it out disproportionately on one player.

It was one of many factors that hurt his performance. Certainly not the only one. But why are we hurting instead of helping? What good does it do?

On top of that, many people were just flat wrong about the kid. They said he had no talent- bad feet, slow, FCS player, etc. Clearly he has talent, and all those people were wrong.

There is always a scapegoat, especially on defense.

No, he never lashed out at the fans.

He just continued to work, stayed at Miami, and is now getting paid to play NFL football.

Exactly..do your job, put your big boy pants on, as criticizing poor play toward a player happens with every school’s fanbase…and at UM, it’s the minors compared to the sec or b10. They would’ve run him out of town…

The worst was hearing Guidry at some early media days talk about how they didn't have a lot of depth. No **** Sherlock. And then you bring in Savion Riley and Dyoni Hill? IMO, even though I was impressed by Guidry after his first season and would normally give him the benefit of the doubt, his lack of self awareness was inexcusable. Anyone with half a brain saw this coming.

I think… you’re blaming the wrong person in this post without realizing it lol

No, I’m not and you yourself qualified it as hopefully. Lucas as of last night wasn’t even in the portal. If and when we get him, that is a big time pickup but until then…

So being on the WC, I watch a **** ton of football including a gang of PAC-12/Big XII, B1G football. I’m legit scratching my head on this take. Does he look like Richard Sherman? Yes; does he have an ideal CB frame in today’s modern football? Yes; but, I can unequivocally tell u he’s not that guy u want on the boundaries.

I usually don’t agree w/ PFF b/c their metrics r more skewed to the NFL game, but I will say, just like the recruiting services have gotten better over time w/ more staff & data, so has PFF regarding CFB. Karnley graded 59.5 in coverage & 53.5 as a Defender. Yeah, that’s **** poor.

He gave up 51% of passes that came his way, 4 TDs, & an avg. of 13 ypc. He also spat on a player & was suspended. So yeah, I dunno. He’s definitely a project, for sure.

Sir respectfully from now on please refrain from calling any of our DB’s performances **** poor. Hence forth the appropriate way to describe it is…..

Why are people complaining about this? He may not be a day one impact player, but with his size and athleticism, he can develop into an impact guy for us. Oh and most importantly, he’s got three years of eligibility left.


If I’m not mistaken, didn’t I read he converted from WR to DB? Most of you threw a fit when Washington left because you wanted see him develop as a corner. Where’s that same attitude for this kid? One is 5’11 and one is 6’3

After following this team for a bit you learn to let the mopers mope and the copers cope. It's silly to think you can change either sides opinion.
