Diaz/Lashlee/Reed/King/Roche/Borregales Presser

Reed's job sounds just like a "phone a Cane Legend" type role lol

He's not even going to be with the team all the time.

Manny,

"Hey Ed - James Williams is going to be on Campus, can you come down?"

"Hey Ed - our defense is struggling with focus after losing to UAB (just kidding), can you come talk to them?"

"Hey Ed - Can you help us hype up this FSU game and get alums down to the game?

Manny has an analytical outlook but he definitely gets fired up. I don't think he can be near as good as Ed about getting players in the right mindset though.

manny can do the hypeman role before a game as necessary (the level of effectiveness TBD). But Ed is the guy that can get them to buy into the daily life required for creating a winning program/mindset even if you aren't getting playing time

Suzy Q has been covering the Hurricanes for nearly TWO DECADES now. So she must be doing something right! No?
 
"For me it's just my background," Lashlee said. "I threw 71 times in a game twice. When I played we never had a guy that ran faster than 4.6 but we led the country in total offense because we played fast, wore (the defense) down, had guys that executed at a high level. ... That's my background and I've seen it work over the years. Tempo is the great equalizer. Look at the Super Bowl, the last six minutes. The 49ers dominated till they went up tempo, then the defense wasn't as effective. I just believe in that, what I've always done. What fits here, if you talk about South Florida, we have access to a lot of good speed, athletes. Getting our guys in space allows their speed to be opened up and used to their advantage."

“I’ve been in situations before where coming in we have to get things turned around, and in those scenarios - the things I’ve always done is the past is the past,” Lashlee said. “Like I told our players, I will not watch one single game from last year in terms of the game. I watch cutup of individual players. I can see kind of what their skillset is, what they can do until we get on the field. From doing that we have some pieces in place we can work with. There’s a lot of work to be done. From O line to tight end to running back to receiver, we have some guys I know are excited about what we’re going to be doing. … We addressed our most immediate need on offense, to find an older, more seasoned QB to help that room. Just looking through it we have guys up front that are young, but there’s some length and athleticism. We have some experience coming back at tight end, two older guys at running back, two electric younger guys coming in. At receiver we have guys that haven’t really done anything (but have potential). It’s a matter of putting guys in position to be successful.”

I can’t be the only person that watched those and though Lashlee sounds more like the head coach? He’s impressive.

I'm sure Lashlee knows that if he turns around Miami's offense and Miami wins 10 games for at least the next 2 years (he's usually at programs for that amount of time) he will get g5 head coaching jobs.
