These goofies still think it’s tied to “looking good” “making the cfbp” “conference strength”

So stupid that these are buzz words by the media to keep the fan invested and an excuse for the misses. It’s so easy to see that none of that sh matters, and God only knows when we do win they will see how retarded they look when we keep missing on elites that go to big blue blood money schools. I want to see the goalpost be pushed to stadium or conference bs. I wonder what’s the excuse after those things are fixed. Holy sh

Just accept who we are a good team that will never be the old Miami. We can’t do that in this era period. We are a good team that can’t reach the top cause the roster will never be stacked. If Mario can’t do it, no one can do it. We don’t have deep enough pockets like those others, that’s it.


I really believe if it were pre NIL Mario would stack. IMO that is

The team under Mario this year has the highest blue chip ratio in twenty years. Ultimately it comes down to quarterback play. Cam Ward was superlative, and was mostly able to overcome continued roster deficiencies in the defensive back room for ten of Miami’s 12 games.

And aside from Cam, King, and Kayaa we haven’t had Miami caliber starters since Dorsey left. You can have a very strong overall roster but if you miss at QB it can all go downhill. I saw it firsthand at Texas from 2010-2021.

We spent our whole recruiting budget on a huge white guy from the middle of nowhere who dominates because he is a huge guy playing against small white guys in the middle of nowhere.

Facts.

Who cares that he’s white or plays against white kids? Seems odd to include that. Like you cant be a good football player in a rural area.

So getting the #1 HS player (mind you he was also ranked as a top 100 all-time HS athlete) only makes sense to you if he plays against non-white people or is non-white? You’re a moron.

No, no, no. You can’t ask me what my “accountability measure” is without answering my question first.

When can we hold him accountable?

It seems like you’re saying we can’t do it in year 4. So, when can we?

Next year? Year 6? Do we need to give him the full 10 before we can? C’mon now, let us know. Don’t hold back.

IMO, accountability starts Yr 1 but with reduced expectations that increase every season thereafter. We can argue whether or not he met expectations these past three season. But in Y4, we should hold him accountable for getting to the ACCCG and playoffs. He has been given enough programmatic support, and has more than enough talent across his staff and players to win. So it's on him.

I agree with this but and the only but I have, is that just pass the eye test and be good. We have never had consistent big seasons since the ice age. Show me we are good and recruit well and close well and I’m on board.

I would not risk this university fire someone than hire a Diaz again. I don’t trust them, so I’ll take that for now.

Staff going to continue chasing Cooper only to get respect my decision'd 2.0 in December when Texas ups the bag further. Meanwhile, whoever the Issac Brown of the '26 class is will be signing with Louisville, Syracuse, etc.

Isaac brown doesn’t exist this year but the real one should be given cooper’s money to come over via portal.
