Patke in his current role is not a problem unless he can’t find or coach someone to catch a punt.
I think curtis, Knighton, Restrepo all should get a shot at it next year.

You blame him for wiggins and pope? Craziness.or Wr Coach side of the ball
I think Mike Harley needs to figure it out. You can’t play in the NFL at 5’9-5’10 if you can’t return a punt and you’re not a very good slot receiver. He’s a solid slot that can’t field a punt. There’s not a roster spot for himI think curtis, Knighton, Restrepo all should get a shot at it next year.

Patke actually sounds like a smart dude, just plain and not sure about the extent of his recruiting prowess. Plus Frierson was arguably the most improved / essential component of our defense this season.
Let's assume King is out for the 2021 season. In turn, this eliminates the excuse of the offense carrying the defense because, without King, we're probably not scoring more than 30 ppg (just being real here). You can laud Perry all you want for last night, and I mean no disrespect, but everyone knows his ceiling. If we're being real, Ok St probably did not gameplan for him at all.
Anywho, the defense MUST see a vast improvement if we are to contend for the Coastal, which leads me to believe one of two things happen here.
1) The defense does, in fact, undergo a significant improvement, which should lead us to at worst a two/three-loss season. Add in another stud recruiting class, and you're laying a nice foundation down.
2) There is minimal or no improvement on defense, and we allow close to 35+ ppg. This team finishes 6-6 at best, Manny should* be fired and we start all over again.
I'd say there's an 85% that if the foundation of the defensive scheme stays the same, the latter will occur. Manny's two seasons at the helm have each produced two of the most embarrassing results in the history of Miami football - FIU and UNC. Three strikes and you're out.
I was told multiple changes right down to schematically. That was a couple weeks ago.
I know last year he wasn’t blown away by bakers play calling , that’s a fact. Me knowing that I’d say if he’s not fired I could see giving up play calling to a vet dc. Also changing some things schematically. The d room will look different.Does last night and the domino effect cause Manny to retrench and not make any changes? Or does this make him more likely to make changes on defense now that the offense is in question for next season?
Manny wants to break the rushing and total yards records established by unc against bama.manny wants to see the end of his head coaching career if he keeps baker for next year
bama is gonna drop **** near 70 if baker is here, do you understand that mr yes man manny? I know you read these forums, it's obvious so do you want your *** being remember for losing 70 to 17 to bama and immediately getting fired?
I can think of a couple more but you won’t see them on a billboardThis should be our marketing tag line for the last 19 years.
Baker taking a demotion to LB coach and co-dc without playcalling duties would be something I haven’t considered happening.I know last year he wasn’t blown away by bakers play calling , that’s a fact.

We’ll have somebody reliable coming....I think curtis, Knighton, Restrepo all should get a shot at it next year.

yes the WR coach has a responsibility to ensure players that get in game deserve it. At a minimum they should be losing reps in game.You blame him for wiggins and pope? Craziness.
If you need to do that to an employee, and considering the way our LBs have played, then he needs to sack up and fire him. There is absolutely zero justification for keeping him on staff other than personal relationships.Baker taking a demotion to LB coach and co-dc without playcalling duties would be something I haven’t considered happening.
If that was me though.. I’d just say fire me. Career suicide in the coaching profession is willingly taking a demotion and hanging around. You’re more likely to rebound being fired.
Everyone keeps saying Patke is a smart dude, yet I watched Harley return three kickoffs last night from the corner to the 20 or less when he could have called a fair catch to bring it to the 25. Patke looked good this year because they brought in Borregales and had Hedley, neither of which he had anything to do with the development of.Patke actually sounds like a smart dude, just plain and not sure about the extent of his recruiting prowess.
