Fight broke out during Canes practice.

Seems like we can never catch a break and this "toxic locker room" cycle always seems to show its ugly face when we are in the dumps. Everyone remember the "Tracy Howard specifically told XYZ recruit to not come here" talk during the Golden days? Cant remember what recruit it was. Just seems like this program is always in some BS drama. Never can seem to handle adversity as players or coaches as a whole.

When the Turnover Chain was in full effect and we were on national TV and everyone loved us early last year and all of 2017...everyone on the team and in the program loved each other. Now they all cant even stand to be in the same room and we are only 5 games into the season needing a "Players Only Meeting". Manny is too busy trying to call his realtor to hurry and put his house on the market while he can still demand 100k over the asking price...Blake is doing corny interviews trying to let the public think his job is safe..Frenk has no clue what the **** is going on and thought we were on cruise control when he took this job and now knows he actually has to do some work over in the athletic side of the campus.....the 75 member BOT cant agree on anything and is now scrambling because the "we have no money (shrug)" narrative has run its course..Manny Diaz Sr, who I thought was dead, is calling in favors to help his son apparently....What the **** is going on over there in Coral Gables and what good reason does any fan have to waste time and money to attend anymore home games this year??

...what good reason does any fan have to waste time and money to attend anymore home games this year??
This is the perfect time to take little kids. The secondary market will have cheap tickets if people aren't just giving them away and the little guys just soak up the atmosphere and are ready to leave after a few snacks.
 
Want to get Manny out of here ???? Very easy ! Have Kings family leak this sHT to the press….it will go national in about 3 minutes and they’ll have no choice but to implode the whole thing …
The King family are honorable people, I doubt they would do this.

I mean, they should...
 
So did King want to play or not? Sounds like some are saying he was forced and others saying he pushed himself to stay on the field. King is a fighter and didn’t bust his *** in rehab to sit on the sideline with an injury HE felt he could play through.
Doesn’t matter if he wanted to play or not…it’s why trainers take a player’s helmet from them….to protect them from themselves.A player like King is ALWAYS going to want to get back in there…it’s up to the adults in charge to make sure he doesn’t.
 
I mean it doesn't have to be his family specifically leaking.

How is X media person going to know it's King's brother or not?

Play the role and leak the **** information - Surely someone on this site has the ingenuity to be a "King family member" and go to someone in the media.

We need to come together to get ourselves out of this situation.

It's called winning and losing. Culture and locker room toxicity and all that bull**** is just that...bull****. Winning teams have great culture. Losing teams fight with each other. I guarantee nobody is jumping people is Borregales makes a field goal at the end of a game 7 days ago. NOW....I'm not saying that would be anything other than lipstick on a pig. It certainly would not have been. I'm just saying that the mood of an entire organization is 180 degrees different when you're winning vs when you have loads of expectations on you and fall flat on your face. We didn't lose because of this "culture". We lost because the kids can't make plays and the coaches can't coach them to somehow make them. Now that that's happened, things become toxic. It doesn't help when you have a group of kids who are entitled as fvck and feel like they deserve success without really being good enough to command it.

Easy to be full of love when things are going good.
 



So, yesterday was the SECOND players only meeting . Apparently a couple of weeks ago there was a players only meeting that was started by the FRESHMEN - in particular, Kam Kinchens and James Williams (among others) brought everyone together to talk about what needed to happen....

Yeah but 5 games into the season and the ship is sinking? Cant even rally the team to finish with some pride? Cant ask season ticket holders to bite the bullet and go out there and sit through this torture with 4 more home games left. I honestly wish the UNC game was this Saturday so we can get this loss over with and move on in some capacity. At least we would have closure. Maybe the players would rally around another coach on the team. They have clearly given up on rallying to save Manny.
 
They aren’t all trying to duck it.. some of them are okay with anarchy here and that’s all I’ll say
Didn’t mean to put all of them in one basket but it would be something that would swing the majority in a good way I’ll bet..
