Go back and read my posts carefully! We had to go in and pay a settlement last minute to make this work. How much did it cost us $$ wise? I wasn’t against a portal guy. Just a lock it in earlier in the process especially since we were in the playoffs. Shouldn’t have to be dealing with a portal QB issue during the same week as a National Championship game.

I stand by what I said - not the ideal sustainable process (although 3-3 is not bad). It didn’t work this time in terms of getting Simpson to pull out (that’s what she said) from the draft and we almost had to bring in a problem child (Leavitt).

I am still a believer in developing your own guy at some point with multiple years of playing time, like ND with Carr.

It’s likely we will be in the same spot again next year.

The young guys SHOULD get a lot of reps on the front end of this schedule

It looks like the ball is loose when his knee hits ground.

Their apology was because the officials didn't produce the agreed upon result.

I'm pretty sure we didn't tamper with either Duke player. What makes the most sense is that Mensah's representation (and then Barkate's) reached out KNOWING how this game is played, so Miami wouldn't be chased away by legal action or punitive motions from the NCAA.

It's easy to cry "tampering" on the U, but I am pretty certain, that they, and Mensah's representation, understood the game and did exactly what was required to get this over the finish line.

All that stated, if they want to make Miami the big baddie again, bring it on!!

If he had fumbled that ball and Duke recovered… would Duke fans say that photo shows he’s down with ball secure, or ball is loose?

I give Dawson more leeway than some others here but using him like he did Arroyo is like some…

Dammit no I can’t do this again…

With the embarrassment of riches at WR and a relatively inexperienced OL, it will be great if we see a philosophy change in Dawsons offense. 10 and 20 personnel, RPO based. That will shred defenses.
