One more tidbit though. Zach Krantz actually verbalized the question.Sir, don't derail a nice narrative with facts!
That said, Joe verbalized the question. I stand by all my previous positions!

Smart man.Thank you. I just read most of it and keep my mouth shut.
...On Lingard, Diaz says his confidence is going up with each day as his workload is increased. He’s excited to see what he can do.
Will do.Smart man.

"When asked if it’s been an adjustment in transitioning from being a DC to HC, Diaz said he’s still highly involved on the defensive side of the ball because championship level defense is a necessity at Miami. Also mentioned that he has full confidence in Enos and Baker."Summary:
— Diaz said eliminating critical errors, accuracy, decision making, and the x-factor were what he/Enos valued. All three guys could do that, but Jarren was the best option because of his arm talent and instincts of knowing where to go with the ball.
— When asked about the OL, Diaz said he’s not necessarily concerned. Acknowledged improvement. Stated that they ran the ball well in the scrimmage.
— On how Martell/Perry took the news, Diaz said he told all of them that they progressed. They all took it well. The message was “let’s get back to work.” Believes the team will rally around Jarren.
— Not ready to announce depth chart yet. Still a couple positions where battles are taking place as they continue to prep for UF.
— Diaz said the staff are encouraged with the DT depth, even with Nesta out, because of Ford, Bethel, Chigozie, and Miller.
— Update on Cam Harris: Diaz said he’s healthy and ran the ball really well yesterday. Pointed out that Deejay has also had a really good camp.
— Laughed about the possibility of using a lot of two tight end sets. Said the idea is to create favorable matchups.
— On Bubba Bolden, Diaz says he’s learning at the moment. Today will be his first day in full pads. Training him at a bunch of different spots in the secondary to find the best fit for him.

— Updates on Lingard and Phillips: Diaz explained that Phillips is not eligible to play this year. On Lingard, Diaz says his confidence is going up with each day as his workload is increased. He’s excited to see what he can do.

My reading is yes, Lingard's confidence. I imagine that he specifically meant Lingard's confidence in his knee post-surgery.Whose confidence? I’m assuming Diaz means Lingard’s confidence? Or no?

No one really knows much.... he carried a lot of bad soft weight coming out of HS but showed good burst and first step. Played against poor comp and his recruiting profile was not huge, he was a late last minute riser pulling in a few big offers. Now he looks stronger and helped reshape his body.
Haha. I was listening on my way to work and thought the same. "Yo, is Manny still half asleep?" The questions were incredibly bad, though. I think the interview ended with "Are you excited about the Gator game?" Manny gave a sarcastic answer like "nah, at all, I have better things to do."Nothing earth shattering but a heck of a lot of YOU KNOW'S every 5 -10 seconds which was a little annoying but we have the right man for the job.
