“He identified most of the issues that plagued this program.”
I’m going to directly reply to you vs doing a QP. This quote; what does this mean, actually? So you’re basis for being compelled to make this post is b/c we went from a 3-4 to a 4-3 & went to a spread?
What if a plumber was given a wrench to fix a pipe, and used it as a hammer; should we give him credit for using the wrench?
Listen, feelings aside, let’s talk about Diaz’s tenure after 30 games:
-In 2 of 3 seasons, Miami has started 2-3 after 5 games. You know the last coach to do that? U have to go pre-Saban era back in the 70’s (I wasn’t alive then)
-Diaz is now 0-6 in his last 6 games against P5 teams. You know the last coach to do that? I haven’t seen one individual coach having that distinction. The last time Miami had a 6 game losing streak against P5 opponents, u have to go back to ‘76 - ‘77 (between Selmer & Saban).
-Diaz has the distinction of being the only P5 coach, in HISTORY, to lose to FIU
-Miami gave up the most rushing yards in FBS HISTORY to two players on the same team in a single game
-Miami gave up the most total yards in our HISTORY under Diaz
-Miami gave up the most rushing yards in our HISTORY under Diaz
-Miami was the 1st ACC team to give up two 200 yard rushers in the same game, and we’ve only been in the ACC since 2004 under Diaz
-We’ve given up the 3rd most points in a single game in our history under Diaz, & the first time giving up 60+ since 1998.
-Diaz is now 2-4 on the season after 6 games. The last coach to have at least 4 losses in the 1st 6 games? Davis in 1997 (and he was dealing w/ a near death penalty)
I mean, I can go on & on about how historically bad we’ve been under Diaz. Furthermore, last checked, Diaz college says FSU. So I’m not sure y u’re giving this assumption that he “loves this school.” Is it b/c he gave a hallmark story reminiscing of the time he attended the game at the OB to watch his hometown team play? Lol.
Look, dude is being paid millions. Don’t cry for him Argentina. This is the most $ he’s ever made, and hasn’t earned one cent of it.
