How you do anything is how you do everything.

And you embarrassed us today.

At least we went cheap on the guy who doesn’t speak Spanish up in Happy Valley.

You took 16 generations to hire the wrong OC.

You did it because you like this backwards, anti-Miami style of offense.

I’m not hurt, dog. I’m not mad, I’m used to this by now.

How you do anything is how you do everything, and everything you did today embarrassed us.
Nothing will test you more than real life, and nothing hurts more than the unvarnished truth.
 
Im not sure that there are more than a very small few clueless rubes who’ll argue about it. The Offense is inexcusable. No wonder we can’t recruit anyone to catch passes beyond a slot WR.
Sadly, there are still many in the fan base that are drinking the kool-aid. I just had a guy on Facebook get mad at me a little while ago for saying that this offense that Mario and Gattis have installed is terrible and archaic.

He told me that Mario needs time to get his own players, because Manny’s 50 4 and 5 Stars shouldn’t be expected to be able to just beat a team like MTSU. He said that in 3 or 4 years, Mario will have this team playing for a title.

I couldn’t believe what I was reading. It’s like Groundhog Day for these ***kers. They’re stuck in the same cycle, and can’t recognize that they’re doing it again.

That catch phrase was a red flag to me when I started hearing the players say it. Very golden-esque. Mario is more focused on these kinds of sound bites. Same red flag went up for me when I heard Gattis say “if we had 85 will Mallory’s on this roster, we’d be very successful.”

He didn't make it up its a military saying
 
It's refreshing to read a post with some perspective. Well said.

Obviously, it was foolish for anyone to think this team would run the table. Today's loss was one no one expected. Team came out flat and just didn't come to play. MTSU out coached us, out toughed us and out played us. No excuse for the performance we saw today. I remember back during Butch's first season at the the helm there were a lot folks questioning his coaching acumen. How'd that turn out?

In Butch's first year, Miami went 8-3. In his second season we lost at the OB to East Carolina 31-6. We went 5-6 that year. it was the first losing season since Schelly's first year in 1979. Granted, we were decimated by the scholarship cut but that year was a nightmare for us. That year included one of the program's most humiliating losses, a 47–0 to the semenhoes. I was at Doak that day and after the game the last thing on my mind was the run our program was about to make. And as much as we all love Jimmy, he stunk up the joint his first year at Miami. Coming off a national title winning team at that. And after watching the Canes blow a 31–0 halftime lead to Maryland with Frank Reich as its QB and the Hail Maru]y touchdown pass from Flutie, did anyone think Jimmy was setting us up for one of the greatest runs in college football history?

Today's loss was embarrassing, to say the least. But at the end of the day, Mario is a step up from any HC we've had since Butch. Let's revisit the madness in another year or two, and if we're still stinking it up then we can talk crazy. Til then, need all the fake fans and trolls to simmer down.

GO CANES!!!
Butch was down a bunch of scholarships, and had no depth at all to work with. Totally different scenarios.

Well, I’d like to think this board knows better. I’m mostly only subjected to what’s happening in here.

Manny would be 4-0

3-1. He probably squeaks out a W over MTSU and everyone calls him a corch for letting MTSU keep it close and not letting the backups get reps. Doubt UM would be suffering from the same offensive woes if Diaz had hired another power spread OC to follow Lashlee.

No longer or never has?
No longer for some, never have for others. The transition Mario is demanding is difficult. Players will buy into a new coach but shrink at the first sign of adversity. Others do enough to skate by.

This doesn’t absolve Mario of his failing today.
 
We ******* suck, but this is bull

Is it? You're overlooking how bad aTm is. Appalachian State just lost to James Madison. The rest of the schedule is BCC, Southern Miss and MTSU. He'd be a Fool's Gold 4-0 and completely bungle the ACC but still, better than average shot.
