There is a very real possibility the Canes go 0-4 in October...very real possibility.

Thats doesnt mean they arent making progress, but we need to be realistic.

Saban or Meyer or Johnson couldnt fix the OL problems Richt is inheriting...no matter what scheme that is installed.

As fans we need to give Richt time to get his players in place over the next 2 seasons before the expectations of "10 wins or bust" mentality takes over.

There are certainly athletes left over from tje previous staff, but its not like Richt is taking over a program of the same caliber Coker took over.

Let's just be realistic and patient.

Go Canes!

Every though our Oline suck because of coaching and that non-aggressive style of play? Our O-linemen are pounding it every day with an aggressive defensive line trained to get after the QB. IF Kaaya an look like he looked in the Spring and we can run the ball effectively like we did in the Spring then I expect 10 wins. We won 8 with poor coaching last season.. Why is 10 this year a stretch?

 

[KevinCosio]

We have to have a Michigan like year my goals are ACC ship appearance vs Clemson or Fsu and 10 wins out of the 14 games we would play. I don't see more than 4 losses on the schedule.

 

[deleted5896]

I don't think we're necessarily more talented than UNC. They've loaded up on undervalued recruits and coached them up. I think we can beat them, but it's a toss up.

 

[CanesWarrior]

That's what up.. 10 wins + we beat FSU + We sign Jeudy, DJ Johnson, and McFarland...

Jeudy ain't coming here Bro!! Alabama got that. But....beat FSU , dominate in games and show high character and a true culture change, then there might be a chance to sway him

 

[CanesWarrior]

I would without a doubt take a 9 win season this year if one of those wins was against FSU, rather than win 10 and not beast FSU.

Everyone "expecting" 10 wins this year is an idiot. 10 wins this year would be a great season for us. Not saying we don't get 10, or that I don't think we get 10, I'm just saying, that that shouldn't be the expectation year 1.

Im fine with 8-4 this year long as we beat fsu and keep it close with nd. though i feel well upset notre dame

We better beat ND. I'm going all the way up there dance in that field . Halloween weekend. Shouldbe fun.

 

[Zbrod95]

FYI I'm making a list of everybody saying Jerry Juedy isn't coming here so when he does commit all of you can be negged to oblivion.

Go Canes!

Why is it a "very real possibility"? Because we aren't the 2001 Miami Hurricanes? Are we playing the 2001 Miami Hurricanes during those 4 games in October? If not, I don't see what that is relevant. The question isn't how great are we, it's our team relative to the teams we are playing in October.

 

[CanesWarrior]

FSU-Notre Dammit-Carolina-Pitt games should settle where we finish...All four are loaded with FSU rated 2nd/5th in the nation...They just reload with better players than the ones who left...Carolina is a monster with a better QB than Williams who graduated, and a top 10 running back...

NC is a serious team with good talent and good coaching. Pitt is definitely building. Can't sleep on them at all. Our only advantage is wenhave them both home this year.

I don't think any is say bust if 10 wins are not achieved. I personally thinks its a 9 win season and will be patient for development

 

[Canezum5]

Listen to The Franchise. I've been trying to tell you limp-wristed, low-expectation worms. Dudes on here wringing their tiny hands over **** like GT and VT. We even have sissies huddled in a corner shivering over App State.

Win 10 and the Coastal with a Heisman quality veteran QB and talent all over the field, or this season is a failure.

Keep it real wit ya dawgs no matter what!

These dudes KILL me but I gotta be patient with them because not everyone heals from trauma at the same pace.

Lol whay are you so excited? The Op did some selective reporting. Espn has the win toatal at 7.6 and has miami 2nd in the coastal behind unc. These are the percentages for each game.

9/3 FAMU (99%)
9/10 Florida Atlantic (96%)
9/17 @Appalachian State (73%)
10/1 [MENTION=6412]Geo[/MENTION]rgia Tech (63%)
10/8 Florida State (21%)
10/15 North Carolina (53%)
10/20 @Virginia Tech (53%)
10/29 @Notre Dame (26%)
11/5 Pittsburgh (62%)
11/12 @Virginia (72%)
11/19 @N.C. State (56%)
11/26 Duke (82%)

So they basically see unc, vt, and ncst as swing games. With them projecting 7.6 wins they believe miami will lose at least two of those games in addition to losing to fsu and nd.

How do you know the players they got are better than the players that went in the draft? Remember matthew thomas and kain daub? And you think any of those guys are any better than jalen ramsey who single handedly won them games?

And how do you know that UNCs QB is better than williams? With the very limited action people saw him in?

And how is pitt loaded? We beat them last year with dorito and coley running the show

 

[cane since birth]

We have talent on the O-line i dont know why people think its trash, it was that dumb kehoe shuffle and horrible zone blocking technique that made it horrible

 

[Jeeperaf]

All the bravado in the world is meaningless.

What puts organizations in the best position to win is actual proficiency in assigned tasks and performance in the arena.

Coaching staff: w/o question proficiency and performance are upgrades to previous

QB: proficiency (already high) should increase and therefore performance should follow (to even higher levels)

RB: not certain proficiency increases, but maybe performance does with scheme (would be even higher IF Canes actually had serviceable OL...they dont)

OL: I'm not certain any returning starter from last season is a lock to start at NDSU, let alone an "elite" DI P5 program. Can coaching increase proficiency...maybe...likely little gains in performance until Richt can bring on talent necessary to be "elite"

WR: I'd evaluate more towards the RB group than OL

TE: I'd evaluate more towards the QB position than other O groups

DL: No question previous scheme hampered any chance at proficiency or performance in alignment with athletes on field. Question is...with new coaches (really scheme), what is the true production these athletes are capable of?

LB: I'd evaluate more towards DL. Even with Pickney and Quaterman...not sure they can be consistent game changers in year 1...now imagine those two athletes in the Junior years...with future clones helping them out as first year platoon help...could be LB corps of Canes glory of old..

DB: Id evaluate somewhere like RBs..loss of talent to graduation could hurt this group...BUT...extra production by DL could go long way to prevent pass completions by makimg sure they never have a chance behind the LoS

S: Same same as LBs

Soft shouldered losers

These wimps are just trying to protect their delicate feelings so they always pick against UM to accomplish anything. They assume UM will lose every time Alabama wants someone we want despite the lowly Folden even beating Alabama for recruits.

 

[Jeeperaf]

I could eat these words...but people in UNC circles are very confident in Trubisky's abilities. Expectation is they build on last year's success and not let it get away as an aberration.

Not saying Canes will lose, but if you think UNC isnt a very good team, you might be in for a bitter pill to swallow

Dummies can't seem to grasp that this UM team is expected to play much better than it did when it won 8 games amidst unprecedented turmoil and toxicity and basically without a coach. They're under the assumption that we shouldn't be expected to beat even the team's we've outrecruited.

The season will absolutely be a bust if we don't win 10 games. We should play 14 games this year with a Heisman caliber veteran QB and more talent than almost every team on our schedule combined with a proven HC who won 10 games last year with no QB and missing his best player to injury.

I look at the percentages, not the interpretation of those percentages by people who know far less about my team than I do. I don't give a fck how the Andrea Adelsons and Heather Diniches of the world interpret those stats.

UM will be favored in 10 of those games because we should be expected to beat the NC States and Vag Techs of the world.

Well not many people think this is a 10 win team.
