Don't be so sure, nothing is certain except death. We were fortunate the last two seasons to get our guy and the drama with Cam was down to the wire. Mario needs to reevaluate the speed at which he moves for these portal QBs.

We're playing for the natty in a week doing things his way. With all due respect he doesn't need to reevaluate ****. Landing a good QB in the portal is ABSOLUTELY the way to go. You're not even arguing with me at this point, you're arguing with history, statistics, and results. All FOUR teams in the final 4 this year have portal QB's. The last THREE national champions all won their title with a portal QB.

If you can't handle it, stay off the boards for a week or two. I can assure you....we'll make a splash.

Hey dude, I'll post whenever I want, nobody said we won't get our guy, my point was don't be so certain, nothing is guaranteed as you alluded to.

Hey dude, you waking up tomorrow isn't guaranteed. If you're looking for absolutes and guarantees you're gonna spend your life disappointed. Signing a QB earlier in the portal window doesn't offer any sort of guarantee. Signing the #1 QB out of high school doesn't offer any sort of guarantee.

Let's play a game called what's more likely to happen... the same guy who's hit big on a portal QB in the last two cycles and now has us in a natty after 25 years of misery not having a plan with a backup seems like a bad bet.

It would be a waste to throw a 4+ million bag at Leavitt just to attempt to squeeze out 10 wins next year (especially with his added injury concerns). Take a chance on the young guys at QB, and make sure to keep Toney locked in for 2026 and 2027. It was worth risking it with Beck this year since we had a roster that could compete, but next year we return almost no production outside of RB/DB/Toney.

Starting Emory next season would be a waste though. You have to start Nickel/Coleman and see what you have there, and that will guide the portal decision for the 2027 season. Going 8-4/9-3 with Emory vs 6-6/7-5 with Nickel for example does nothing for you.

The most disappointing thing so far this portal cycle has been the failure to get Perich and Biles, we really should have went all in on those two (and maybe we did but whiffed, hard to tell). This is lining up very similar to when UM basketball made the Final 4 and then couldn't capitalize.

Couldn’t disagree more. Sam is a stud. No one had more of a concern than Beck. We have a shot at the playoff again you pay big.

I dont think 4 million is the number

cam Coleman just got 3-3.5 million as a WR according to Shannon terry

sorsby reportedly got 5 million

leavitt is the last one standing and he may be waiting out Dante Moore to increase the bag more

this may be 5-6 range (still worth it if it gets us to the playoffs imo)

Go for a walk and eat some protein. This post is so soft. Miami is reloading. Nobody is going back to winning 8 games
