I hate Kayaa more each game

[gfer1988]

Kaaya had a great O line and a great running game last year and still managed to find a way to under perform in the big games when the chips are on the line.

That is really how QB's should be judged. Not on how well you played against Bethune Cookman or Po Diddly St. But how do you perform in the second half against the top teams on your schedule and in that regard the kid has been horrible.

I don't blame him specifically but he just doesn't have the tools necessary to be one of the GREATS.

I know it rustles some of your panties but the truth is the truth. The kid has never passed the eye test when the chips are down.

His utter lack of mobility and lack of composure when plays break down are my biggest concerns. For every nice play he makes he manages to bonehead just as many wide open receivers.

our oline was not great last year. kaaya got murdered his first game of the season and the play calling didn't help. not to mention he was a true frosh who didn't come as an EE. onece again, kaaya is the least of our problems. and how our fans our being sour pusses acting like the team was gonna make a miraculous turn around following golden being fired is beyond crazy. last time i checked this was still golden's staff with two of the worst coaches on staff being the OC and DC.

 

[Southcane]

Our QB isn't the problem though. I like Kayaa and I think he could be much better with better coaching and game planning. He has the tools but those tools need to be polished. Pocket awareness, evading pass rushers and throwing on the run are areas that need to be improved.

 

[ncncanes]

Thought he had a tough game yesterday however you need to look at about 20 other areas/players before you get to this guy

 

[brock]

So we can lock the Duke Johnson thread but not this one? Lol.... Smfh. Kaaya is still a good qb behind the worst coaching the university of Miami has experienced in the last 33 years, worst defensive coordinator, worst offensive line, worst rushing attack amongst other things....

 

[alwaysacane]

anyone taking shots out our players with the coordinators they have as coaches should be questioned!!! no way these posters should be on a hurricane web site!!

kaaya will be a pre-season Heisman candidate next year but you clowns write this garbage.

shameful!!

That "attempted" fumble recovery was the final straw, get this ****** and his mom off this team.


****ing soft punk

Did you see the way his head whipped with the ball pinned to his helmet? That is classic head injury material. If we had a average OL he would look much tougher and confident. I'd love to see the message board tough guys take a hit like that and then call Kayya soft.

worst OL in over 20 years and yet these fans act like we should rolling people over. this team isn't good and thats not on Kaaya. coaching has been terrible and just bc golden is gone doesnt mean his staff is.

 

[dallascane]

Kaaya absolutely has no mobility. I mean even Brady and Peyton will take off and run from time to time

This is Kaaya's biggest issue. When the new coach comes in, he's going to look at Kaaya and Rosier and I bet Rosier gets named starter and Kaaya leaves Miami. He isn't a bad QB but because he has no mobility, it's like we are playing 10 on 11.

Kaaya is lucky to be throwing to the talent he has. A lot of his sacks are because he holds on to the ball way to long. I say a play during the game yesterday where the ball was snapped and Kaaya looked left for 5 seconds before being hit from his right side. That sack is completely on Kaaya. Miami has never had a great OL and probably never will. I don't hate Kaaya like some in this thread do and I think he can be a great QB. I also think he had a great freshman season and yes he had a lot of help. I just don't think he has made the jump this year to suggest he can be a first round pick like some suggest. Heck I have even seen porsters that say Kaaya leaves after his Junior year and goes in the first round. My prediction is 6th round after his senior season. A lot can change between now and then but he really needs to make a jump to be a first round talent. His short passes to the edge are good but he seems to struggle over the middle and deep. He also struggles in the red zone which I think is due to not being to spread the field.

what talent does he have? u mean the receivers that CANNOT get separation which has been STATED by every analyst that covers UM games. only one player on this team can get open and thats Coley. on top of that, this is a **** show of an OL. stick to IT and computers because football isn't your forte. on top of your stupid statements, saying Miami has never had a good OL is completely false. that 00-02 OL was one of the best, if not the best, in college football.

I think he's talking about the snap over his head, he acted like he wanted no part of the recovery

 

[Bennubird]

We're reach a new low on here each week.

 

[Rellyrell]

Being that I spend my Sunday's as a Bears fan, I can tell you that Kaaya's problem is he's pocket shy. He doesn't possess a lot of athleticism, which hurts him, but he's smart w a good arm.

I watched Jay Cutler get his brain beat in for 3 years in Chicago and to be honest, I wanted him gone. He threw way too many picks, and at times, he would rush throws or flinch before he was touched. But as I replayed game after game, I realized dude was reacting instead of playing b/c every time he snapped the ball, good ole revolving door, J Webb, was letting him get smoked. Now this year, w a better staff, he's looking like a pro-bowler again. That's what coaching does.

Point is, Kaaya can't feel comfortable in a pocket b/c our Oline is literally putrid. It makes u realize how great D Johnson was b/c not only do I feel bad for Kaaya, I feel bad for our RBs. This can all be fixed w a better coaching staff, all around...and a REAL QB coach. Kaaya is going to be fine, once that Oline sures up. But it's truly unfair to blame the kid now. Does he need to get tougher? Yes...but that will come w a better staff.

RT Joaquin Gonzalez was that OL and two of em were best in their position in the country.

He can throw the ball to his receiver where his receiver can either make a play at bat it away. He didn't do that last year when he had Dorset, Walford and Duke and he isn't doing that this year with Coley , Njoku and Yearby. Bryant McKinnie was a 1st round pick and Martin Bibla was a 4th round pick so not sure the best in the country.

One thing to note is Joaquin was the only one from the state of Florida on that OL. Goes to show south Florida doesn't produce very good OL talent and why we should change our offense but that is for another thread.

Ok so you believe that Kaaya is better than Dorsey?

Last we are tired with Ohio State for sacks allowed 33rd. We are ranked higher than Alabama, Ole Miss, Auburn, LSU. We are 5th in the ACC behind Duke, Clemson, Georgia Tech and North Carolina. Our OL isn't great but Kaaya has more time than most other QB's to get rid of the ball.

The worse coRching staff in Miami football history, one of the worse OLs in Miami football history and you guys are killing another player....lmao at all of you.

Aren't the OL players too? You rip those players, but Prince Kaaya is off limits for criticism? Makes no sense.

Kaaya is a good QB who has never stepped up big against a good team, has yet to carry us to wins, and doesn't inspire his teammates to spill their guts and play hard for him like a real General should.

For guys to build him up the way they have on here is putrid. I warned against this before the season when D$ was overhyping Kaaya as a guy who was going to save Folden's job or carry us to a good season.

Based on his weak showing against our own putrescent D I wanted to know what he so dramatically improved on since the spring, and all I heard was quit hating and simplistic conclusions that basically amounted to "he's better because he's better and because I say so".

Unfortunately, as has been the case with every QB since Berlin, Kaaya hasn't improved since last year. Good player, but he's very limited athletically, doesn't really have the plus arm guys keep telling me he does, isn't a great leader, who inspires his team to play hard around him, and hasn't been clutch yet.

have you seen the qb play at bama, ole miss, auburn and lsu? better be thankful for kaaya.

This is another problem trying to play football in 2015 with a cement footed QB. It's infinitely easier for defenses to defend a team when the QB is a sitting duck who can't move at all.

That's why so many teams are putting an emphasis on finding QBs who can move. It puts way more pressure on defenses because mobile QBs can buy that extra second to get receivers open or they can hurt you with their legs making you alter the way you defend.

Look at a guy like Baker Mayfield and how he helps a weak pass blocking OL. If ou had Kaaya they would have 3 losses at least. I've watched them, and his movement skills constantly save OU's ***. They pretty much didn't block anyone in that Tennessee game.

And all of those schools are criticizing their QB and none are trying to sale the point their QB is a 1st round draft pick.
