best Way to word the problem right there. Good shotKids don’t mind losing . And it’s a d@mn shame.
We need players who hate losing more than they like winning.

Exactly. It was disgustingPoorly coached and a bunch of players who dance on the sideline while they’re up 5 points to CMU at home.
Banned for using the most over used term on this site.We need elite players and the culture will improve simple
Its not rocket science
Yea agree in a way......I think Manny is incapable he made bad hires so he’s fuqed. You should not struggle vs CMU he just did and an Al Golden team wins by 21 at leastUSC changed their traditional offense and hired a young, up-and-coming OC in Graham Harell. Their 3rd string QB passed for nearly 400 yards and 3 TDs to beat #10 Utah this past Friday.
A ‘magic scheme’ won’t put The U in the CFP, but running an offense in spite of your weaknesses gets you a 17-12 home win over a lower-tier MAC team that lost 61-0 to Wisconsin a few weeks earlier.
That’s why I don’t trust the hire Kiffin paradeYou know Lane Kiffin is one of the few times recruiting like an animal didnt pay off. They were under sanctions though, limited roster size, but they were still churning out pros, but it wasnt Carroll anymore in terms of player development. Maybe I shouldnt even give credit to Kiffin, its no different than when Coker rode the coat tails of Butch Davis' greatest team ever assembled?

Yup. Same here. The improvements from 2016 to 2017 we're great--I'm willing to give him twice that time to start turning the corner and showing he can do it at the next level of coaching.

Bama the greatest run in the modern era, amazing to see as much as I hate those inbreds. Saban has to leave but notice all the best college are kkk types lolExactly correct. And it has to be an elite skill position player...or preferable several of them simultaneously. A fluke recruiting haul.
Miami is never going to build a dominant roster and then wait for someone like Tua to show up and take it to a surreal level. We don't have the Saban mindset or the geography to have brute lines on both sides of the ball. Not from scratch, anyway. It has to be the other way around, for a Lamar Jackson type to surface and revitalize the program, bringing energy and national spotlight and other elites who want to be a part of it.
Freak head coaches are so few in number it's basically not worth discussing. That's the ultimate outlier. Lincoln Riley now has Jalen Hurts averaging a ridiculous 14.4 YPA, after Mayfield and Murray exceeded 11 YPA over full seasons in the same program.
Sure, we can keep searching for that type. Good plan. Meanwhile difference maker quarterbacks are available all the time.
USC's only heyday since the late '70s was accomplished with guys like Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, Lendale White and Mike Williams all there at the same time. Those were ultra special collegians even if they didn't pan out fully in the pros. Carson Palmer preceded Leinart and gave USC (2002) its first breakthrough season in 20 years. That renewed aura is what allowed the subsequent recruiting to be rated so high. Since Pete Carroll departed, USC has been to only 2 top tier bowls -- one Rose Bowl and one Cotton Bowl. Both were with Sam Darnold at quarterback.
This is not exactly complicated stuff.
The Canes need something similar. Otherwise it's more of the same patch and pretend.
BTW, Alabama just stole an elite quarterback recruit from USC a few hours ago. It was a local kid from Mater Dei who had been a Trojan commitment for more than a year. Now very possibly the successor to Tua.
USC had those glory years because they were apparently paying elite recruits (via their parents) significant amounts of $$ (see the R. Bush case as Exhibit A). Old Petey dodged town to coach in the NFL as soon as he felt the hammer looming. It's the Bags!! Bags make a huge difference. That's why you're seeing the same dirty powerhouses contend perenially (it's becoming boring actually). Yes, coaching matters. Yes, scheme matters. But ultimately the key determinant in CFB is recruiting (and therefore Bags). Coaches only have so much time to coach 'em up in CFB.Exactly correct.
