Does anyone still actually believe in Manny?

Lol. Look at Hornfans to see the **** he ran as Texas DC.

Manny was overrated as Miami DC. And he probably didn’t run some of his stupidest stuff because Richt told him not to.

Honestly, Diaz probably is the DC now more than ever before. He doesn’t even have Richt to tell him not to do the stupid **** he did at Texas.

I'm only a party crash, a yacht and a transfer portal locker room cancer that'll get 3 sacks away from believing again.

Surely this thread will turn out well..

Me personally, I can't help but think about what an absolute failure Enos has been for him. When he was hired a lot of people throughout the country called it a slam dunk hire, we had stolen the soon to be offensive coordinator from bama. Man were they wrong... if i'm being honest, and we're all being honest in that regard, is he not the worst most shockingly disappointing coordinator that has ever been hired here? Could he have been any worse man I mean really, the guy is ranked 130th out of 130 teams on 3rd down conversions. No one saw this coming, not any of you knew he was going to be this glaringly bad and there were plenty of you who were not sold on the guy. But at the least you'd figure at his worst he'd be around 80th or 90th in that category?

I was a big manny fan, and I'm hoping he turns it around because he has shown the ability to adapt. He completely dropped that delayed 3rd down safety blitzing crap and we became an incredible defense in doing so. We had basically this same offense and yet we all knew when the defense came out we were gonna get a turn over or a stop a lot of times.

Fast forward to blake baker, a guy completely in over his head as well. Another shockingly borderline horrible hire that rivals even enos in terms of worst coordinators in UM history. This guy is infinitely in over his head, from dropping GR15 into coverage, to calling that same stupid **** delayed blitz that never gets home. He took a defense that he should have had to barely even touch and had people like ga tech marching up and down the field at will on us. At the very least he even admits he's bad ( in comparison to Enos who is like richt in that certain way ), but man how can you be THIS bad with THIS talent.

I get Manny has had teams take it to his defense here and there, but he is 100000000000000000x the coordinator that blake baker is. The FIU game lost me when it came to manny, it showed me he was in over his head at this level of play. But I'd honestly like to see him fire blake and take the defense back under his full control.

I know everyone just wants to burn the shop down, but if you have other thoughts those might be more constructive to post.

Like everyone else I'm totally disappointed and ****ed about the way the season played out. However, I can understand what it's like to walk into a toxic environment with the expectation of quickly turning things around. I've been in Manny's shoes - not as a coach but as a director of a multinational pharmaceutical corporation. My first year was **** but after that the situation was reversed and everything started to work like clock work. It can be done! I did it. I only hope Manny is up to the task. We'll just have to wait and see.

The worst thing we can do is let manny fire guys this offseason. Then we will have to pay Enos buyout plus who ever we hire’s buyout next year when we fire manny.
 
The SHAMEFUL home lost against a team which ended up with a losing record this season was the proverbial straw that broke my heart. hUh.

I don't recall any thinking Enos was a "slam dunk hire". All you had to do was look at the resume and see he was a coin flip. Let's not rewrite history here.

Did one year at Alabama as a quarterbacks coach and all "hype" around him was a three-year stint at Arkansas, where the Razorbacks were a combined 19-19. At best, people were cautiously optimistic, due to Saban wanting to retain and promote him to offensive coordinator after Mike Locksley took the Maryland job.


As for Diaz, lost a ton of faith in him after year one—but have also been around long enough to remember how people felt about Jimmy in 1984, as well as Butch from 1995 through the 2000 Washington loss. Haven't completely written him off—but if he goes into 2020 without any staff changes, or a personal attitude and approach change, he's looking at an 8-4 season at best—even with a garbage schedule—and I expect year three to be his last.

I think he's still CAPABLE of turning things around—but I don't know if he'll get it done, based on his own stubbornness and flawed approach.

Regarding Enos, go back and check the threads from when he was hired. There were a handful of us who absolutely hated the hire from day 1, but the rest of this board was having a collective circle jerk because we “stole him from Bama”.

The 2017 team is absurdly overrated.

That's probably true, but at least the national CFB media-nexus was talking and writing about Miami, again. And during the regular season Miami had TEN games on national TV... ABC, ESPN, and ESPN-2. But that's all MOOT and irrelevant now. hUh.
