One thing we haven’t gotten at all this Fall camp was a pointless .30 second highlight clip...

But, we did get our Spring game fully broadcast on ACC network, which is the reverse of how things usually would go in our offseasons... Normally, we couldn’t see our Spring game, but all Fall camp we would get dumb highlight hype videos after every scrimmage.

What this means, is that Mario hates us & that bodes well for the future, because everyone knows, a good Coach always hates the fans, because the fans are unruly ******** who deserve nothing & will get them fired if they don’t produce fast enough for their imaginary expectations clock...

What I’m basically saying is, Mario gets it & we’re finally headed in the right direction for the future.

Mario said we need to "acquire more talent" at certain positions. Just a figure of speech, or a fReudian Slip?

Anyone that thinks we have a top 10 roster is delusional. We have a top 10 QB, TE, S, and potentially DT. As for CB, RB, DE, LB, OL, and WR none of them are top 10 quality. You don't need a full Alabama roster but at least half of position groups should be elite.

Wait who are these people who said Miami has a top 10 roster? I'm too lazy to go back and look at posts.

Agreed. Definitely not there yet.

I just want to see a physical U team this year that doesn’t get pushed around especially upfront. I literally hate it when we can’t convert short yardage downs on the ground and resort to finesse, trick play ****.

Physicality and tackling. That’s what I’m watching this season.

Miami doesn’t have a top 10 roster but I don’t think they’re too far off. We’re nowhere near the Georgia’s, Alabamas and Ohio State’s but like always, there’s a really big gap between the top 4 or 5 teams and the rest of the country. Oklahoma State and Michigan State both finished inside the final AP top ten. Ole Miss was 11th. Utah and Pitt 12th and 13th. None of those teams has a significant talent advantage over Miami. It’s going to take a few recruiting classes to make that big jump into that top group but Miami is firmly in that second tier.

What is a top 10 roster? You think Oklahoma State and Baylor who finished 5th and 7th and both won 12 games had top ten rosters last year? Been about 20 years of subpar to terrible coaching at Miami. In that time span Miami has exceeded expectations once. That was in 2017 and even then it fell apart. Maybe we can actually do better than projected for once. Aranda won 2 games his first year. He didn't acquire 10 win improvement type of talent in one offseason.

Put simply if we're not decimated by injuries the schedule sets up for a top 10 finish. What this staff would be required to do is win all the games they're likely to be favored in which before the year starts is probably 10. Recent history tells us thats too much to ask of a Miami coaching staff. Maybe this one will be different.
