Don't lose to mid ACC teams and actually have an offense that isn't subpar with runs up the middle. Then just maybe top recruits will consider Miami
"mId AcC" team that has most ACC wins in last 3 years. "Run up the middle" same run design that was top 3 nationally and led ACC in YPR attempt last season.

Emotional posting

No doubt, there is always some level of "emotional posting" after a loss. It happens here as well as in other forums.
However, a loss to an ACC team is always a bad loss, save a Clemson or FSU when they were legit top-10.
Reason being the other ACC teams will show well against certain opponents, but also have some very bad losses, especially to OOC teams.
I'm sure you're a knowledgeable college FB fan who can offer valid counter-arguments, but most recruits are not as knowledgeable of the game and swallow the national mainstream opinion that ACC football is absolute trash, which is the mindset we have to recruit against.
So it doesn't help when we lose this games.
We don't get the same benefit of doubt that an SEC team does when they get boatraced by a bad opponent like Bama vs FSU this year.
 
Relying on flips is a low probability strategy to land top 5 classes. The one year it worked out for us is the exception, not the rule.

Flips are a real thing when you're a big name program with a rich history of winning big within the last 10 years or so, with a recently hired HC who is trying to flip the roster. When you're in year 4 and haven't delivered then it gets harder to rely on that strategy.

Yes perception for ACC doesn't help Miami for sure.

Louisville is a good program that wins 9 or 10 games per season under Brohm.

Miami is not as talented as those Clemson or FSU teams right now, and thus the gaps arent big between Miami, Louisville, SMU, GT, etc....

Louisville had the best WR and RB on field the other night, and better playcaller. It was enough.

SMU will have the better QB in our matchup, better playcaller, home field, it will be tough.

Hard for me to say every ACC loss is bad, when I know these teams are good teams.

Now outside perception I do understand that.

Again, as I noted in another thread, how much money did we spend on the QB and support staff? We should not be hearing that fellow ACC teams have better players. Either the coaches are not very good GMs or are not good at maximizing their talent.
Brohm is a very good coach and has talented ballplayers, but they should not be better than UM.
Period.

Sorry but Toney is better than Bell.

By what standard is their qb better?
if you want to got TD to INT, how about the context of who they have played. TCU is their best opponent and they get two votes for being ranked and the lost.
Miami: USF, ND, UL.

Jennings is good but I doubt elite. At a minimum, it is a push due to Becks back to back bad games.

It is hard to flip guys when some of these recruits already got a part of their NIL payments.

i hope you have a financial advisor.

$1m nil -$100k paid at verbal
$1.1m nil from Miami- $200k paid at signing

Ummm $1.1m>$1m, yes they have to pay back the other school but that doesn’t change how much they make. It just impacts cash available if they have already ****ed away the $100k

Man what worked last year isn't guaranteed to work this year. The team is different. There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism. It is actually needed if you want to improve. They need to be more versatile on offense. They need to give more guys opportunities to play. We recruit these guys and they don't play I don't understand it.
 
“Recruiting” got neutralized with NIL. You wanna be top 5? Spend like a top 5 team. You can go 1-11 and still land the top dogs if you have(and spend) $$$

The curse in this team is evident bc we hired a master recruiter right when recruiting has never mattered less…
Recruiting has always mattered with bags it’s just in the open now. Saban was a master we in that second tier and there is a big drop off from top tier to second. He better pray his lower rated guys become monsters, that can help.
