Diaz first rookie mistake?

While it is still too early to know whether temperance was warranted, you make a fair point. Overselling and the perception of under-delivering can be deleterious. This is the classic trap (or plan) that many CEOs fall into when hyping their stock price on the promise that "huge news is coming" which engenders rampant hyperbolic speculation only to be doused in cold water when the rather mundane real news is actually delivered. It is an effective pump and dump technique but I am not sure I see the upside here. Of course, maybe it IS already in the bag and Manny, as any self-assured and well-endowed Cuban gentleman is prone to do, wanted us to know the pudenda-walloping we were gearing up to take before even agreeing on going on a first date. Manny seems like a sharp cat so I don't think he is prone to whipping us into a frenzied lather only to hire some dip**** from Gulliver or something.
Think I'll take a short position on this hire..
 
Do you really think Manny gives a rats rump what you or I think? "Cane Nation"? You know and I know there is no such thing.

Look at the comments on this message board. Just a few weeks back the Herd was calling for Manny to ascend to the head coach position, and then when he was appointed the so-called "Cane Nation" went into their normal meltdown mode.

By now, Manny's smart enough to know that he will never please that crowd, so he's going to build rock-solid relationships with his players, their parents, UM administrators, donors and BOT.

So, he sure as **** wasn't talking to "Cane Nation", but if it makes you feel better to believe that, than so be it!
People wanted Manny to cut his teeth at Temple, & maybe hire him in a few years.
No one predicted a CMR resignation & be hired immediately..
 
You m'fers keep negging. As you can tell by my response bar I am not one to troll or post outlandish stuff. I just posted a question that may have some merit given the circumstances. Thanks to the posters that have at least responded with commentary whether in agreement or not instead of you chicken **** posters that have nothing substantive to offer except goofy emoticons.

I hope I'm wrong and want Manny to be successful. But anything short of a Fedora type hire, or some combo of Applewhite with a co-OC/qb coach like Dorsey/Coley/Ponce, etc. willl be disappointing, given the hype Manny himself propagated on national tv.

Right now I am thinking he is acting like the excited virgin that ends up with the beautiful girl in his bed and prematurely ejaculates during foreplay.

If I am wrong I will gladly take my lumps and continue a willing passenger on the hype train. If I am right I expect all you smoochers who negged me to come back and french kiss my salty Cuban @ss!
 
need one o r two more recruiting cycles before we are at the point where we can beat Clemson and bama on a regular basis.

Yep. Cycles of slurping Bicht did you in, along with the zero IQ ;-)

Mike Woodson who you put a picture of, he was called Woody around the garden. Surprised yu would post a picture and not know that, unless of course.......you had something else on your mind

I thought you were referring to “Woody” from the Toy Story trilogy.

In his ESPN interview it sure sounded like he had someone big “that would be a big shot in the arm” of current players and recruits.

He certainly raised expectations a few notches. That first sounded to me like Fedora. Maybe things, like in the recruiting world, have quickly changed and he may have to settle for a little less than expected and a decent hire may now be viewed as a big disappointment.

Should he have been a bit more tempered?
if u heard him today he says the 4th guy would of been a great hire at oc and he is down to 3 so to him they are all great hires lol who we might think is a great hire may differ from what diaz thinks though

You're sobbing inconsolably again child. Look, we all see you stated an incredibly dumb slurper belief about 1 or 2 cycles, deal with it

That pic of me smiling is for all meat hanging in your locker.
Sure, smile all you want.
1, 2, 3 cycles of Bicht slurping delusion....still can't beat Bama...or even play them LOL

I will wait and see what happens. He set up the expectations so he needs to deliver. So far he hasn't done anything wrong so I am not going to put the cart before the horse.
