Manny Diaz on Miami's QBs: 'We needed to reset the culture'

Miami hasn't had a Top 25 offense in over a decade. Manny Diaz knows that has to change for his regime to succeed, so he's made some big changes.

insane to see the statistics of how bad our offense has been for so long

Im sure Diaz wanted to ring the necks of all the QBs last year.... mixed in with Feagles neck somewhere in the middle

Any article on Miami QBs that doesn't mention Weldon is trash.

It does mention Weldon. No reason to get so upset though, He's never starting a game here.

He obviously thinks tate is going to start!! I can’t imagine being on the defense and you know your offense and special teams is going to put you in a bad position every game

Wouldn't surprise me if he transfers to FSU.....

Good read now we just need to get at least decent to great play out of the QB spot in order for the offense to click and to take advantage of all the amazing talent we have at RB, WR, and TE.

If I were him, I’d print out this post and tape it to the ceiling above my bed. so it would be the first thing I see every morning.

There's a very good starting QB somewhere in that QB room. It's going to be interesting to see which one takes the bull by the horns; especially if Martell gets a waiver.

I'm good with whoever they decide on. But Idk why so many think Tate is far and away better than Jarren.

Even their recruiting rankings were close. Jarren was ranked higher in his class by both 247 and ESPN. Tate was ranked higher in the composite because Rivals (who most of you don't trust) had Tate ranked 39th and Jarren at 114.

ESPN had Jarren ranked 106 and Tate ranked 127.

247 had Jarren ranked 89 and Tate ranked 92.

They're just so different. I really can't wait to see them both in the spring.

If some random internet guy's opinion matters that much to him. I'm not sure I'd trust him to play quarterback.

On the contrary, I’d trust someone who is hungry to prove any doubters wrong.

After two weeks out with da pink eye Weldon had decent stats in da Spring scrimmage. In last summmer's players workouts, Shaq's Daddy said Shaq was saying Weldon gave the defence fits. I don't trust Richt and Little Richt's QB evaluations and how they put dat mane in their doghouse.

For me it's based solely on the fact that Martell has played a lot more and done a very good job. Williams hasn't done anything of note yet. We'll see I'm the spring. They're all gonna get a shot and the cream will rise.

It's important to emphasize that they were different classes though. And even though Jarren's class had Lawrence and Fields, Tate's class was a bit more stacked. Tate's backup in HS, Dorian Thompson-Robinson ended up being ranked even higher in the 2018 class than Tate was in the 2017 class, and I think Tate is the better player.

Either way, good post. I did not realize Jarren was so highly regarded by 247 and espn

You're assuming he doesn't wake up with some co-ed sitting on his face, thereby obstructing his view to the ceiling.

From the article

“It was extraordinarily tough,” Diaz told 247Sports. “If we’re going to talk to our players about accountability, we have to have that same accountability as coaches. Miami can’t rank where we were offensively last year — we just can’t.”

This speaks volumes...

Weldon didn't have pink eye.....that only keeps you out 1 to 2 weeks

Weldon had a real ****** deal that can best be described in medical terms as *** EYE which is much more serious

Question since I don't follow the rankings that closely, how do they come up with the scores for each player? Wouldn't that be a better indicator than overall ranking when we're talking about different years? For example, as someone else mentioned, the 13th ranked player one year could actually be a top 2-3 player if they would have come out in a different year. Just trying to figure how they truly stack up.
