Lingard and coach’s lack of communication

CFLCane said:
Lingard has the least amount of wiggle of the 3 and his game is better suited by a line that create space for him. The only reason we have running game right now is because DJ is a greased up bowling ball.

Maybe but I’ve watched Lo run and dude hits hole quick and in small spaces.

Look at Cams stats the last 6 games they have been straight trash, dude doesn’t hit the correct holes and isn’t doing much

There is no sense in redshirting him, unless you think somehow he will get that 6th year of eligibility. Who here thinks a 5 star RB will stick around for 6 years? I sure don't. We lost a title because Coker didn't want to lose a year with Frank Gore. A year he lost anyway because Gore went pro early. You play RBs, period. If you can get 5 games from them in a season, you do it. They simply don't stick around if they are good.

Fair enough.

A running backs shelf life is pretty short in the NFL. No running back worth a **** is going to stay in college for 4 years, let alone 5 years, which would be the case should they decide to redshirt Lingard. So what's the point of redshirting him?

Just get him on the **** field, now!

Fair enough.

Didn't Dj house one against Florida. As soon as you said that im pretty sure everyone stopped reading your bull ****. Cam has had 2-3 runs called back that were over 50 yards. Why does everyone want to rush back a guy off a serious injury. My guess is theres a bunch of short **** losers from other fans bases on this free site. Let that sink in. Start charging and make cash of real cane fans and not these limp **** scum bags.

Deejay is a good RB but breaking one long run (or even two) out of hundreds doesn't mean he has elite speed. Hall of Famer Bernie Kosar (and other highly knowledgeable people around the UM program) said publicly last year that we were lacking elite speed & production from the RB position. You telling me they don't know what they are talking about? That's obviously ridiculous. Just over 2 ypc against lowly CMU also says you are flat wrong & don't know what you are talking about. Lingard is a far more elite RB than the other RBs on our roster. I appreciate the other RBs & absolutely think they should be part of the rotation but Lingard should be the featured back. You will see that in time.

Also, there is no need for such childish & insulting rhetoric on your part. We should be allowed to express our opinions as to who the best players are without receiving a really pathetic stream of insults from people like you.

Deejay is a great Cane. So is Cam. I support them both. I think Lingard is better & needs to play.

All of this because his dad & uncle answered a question on facebook. LOL (They are obviously frustrated)

I know Lingard well enough to know that he can speak for himself.

He’s just as good as Cam Davis if not better. Plenty of room to play 3 RBs. It’s not a position we have been world beaters at. I understand playing the older guy Dallas because he’s had a solid year and leadership qualities. Cam hasn’t shown anything yet this year

Have you seen him at practice every day?

Guess what? It doesn't help the team. And if he thinks putting stuff on social media will help his case, he is getting bad advice

It's what a lot of parents do when they haven't been there themselves, meaning, played the game at the level or higher.

My son's HS team has 4 former NFL dads, two of which won a SB. Two of those kids start and two are younger backups. One of those is as good, if not better than the SR in front of him. Those dads don't say a word about any of it, at least not publicly. They don't need to live vicariously through their kids or feel so insecure that they feel the need to " stick up" for their "poor" child who isn't getting a fair shake.

Nope, but I’ve watched some of his HS games and seeing is Cam Harris hasn’t had a successful game running the ball in his last 6 games I think my assumption is correct. Including the games he did play for Miami and his stats are better than Harris’s

I also know that Lingard had a more successful off season work out.

Harris has been booty the in 80% of his games he’s played but everyone is blinded by 2 or 3 games he had a big run in

The Canes sucking has forced my hand to watch all of CFB. Ppl will soon realize that when I say chit on this board, I’m not just talking chit. After 2013, I became a CFB fan v. solely focusing on Miami. And all I’m left wondering is based upon the excuses this fan base use time and time again to justify incompetence, mediocrity, lack of player development, y don’t I see these perpetual habits elsewhere?

We’ve heard, ‘well the reason y we’re 0-2 to start the season is b/c we have a freshman QB.’
-Johnny Manziel took A&M to new heights as a RS Fr.
-Justin Fields is now 3-0
-The Crab Thief took FSU to new heights as a RS Fr.
-Tua came fresh off the bench down 20 at half to win a Nat’l Championship as a True Fr.
-Trevor Lawrence just methodically picked apart a defense some claimed as a top 10 all time for a National Title as a True Fr.
-Sam Howell just started his career 2-0 against two P5 opponents, including leading a 4th qtr come back against us, to start the season.
-****, USC's 3rd string QB who hadn't thrown a ball since his freshman yr of high school, just popped off the bench and beat a top 10 team!

We’ve heard, ‘well Manny is a 1st yr coach, that’s y we’re struggling.
-Chris Petersen’s first yr he went 13-0
-Fisher went 10-4 first yr
-Eli Drinkwitz has started 3-0 at App St including JUST beating a P5 school, the school we lost to.
-Rod Carey went 12-2 in his 1st yr, is now at Temple, and just beat a P5 team
-Ryan Day is now 7-0 to start his coaching career, and he’s 3-0 this season w a new QB

We’ve heard, ‘well the team is full of divas, that’s y we can’t win.’
-UGA
-Bama
-Clemson
-LSU
-OSU
-Oklahoma
-Texas
-PSU
All of them have way higher profiled recruits than us, and are winning w no issues

We’ve heard ‘it’s our lack of talent, that’s why we’re losing.
-We’ve out recruited EVERYONE in the Coastal and dang near everyone in the ACC w the exception of Clemson & FSU
-We’ve out recruited Wisconsin, yet we got smashed twice by them.
-We’re out recruiting UVA, yet we couldn’t score 17 points on them.
-We’ve out recruited Boise St
-We’ve out recruited Utah
-We’ve out recruited KSU
-We’ve out recruited Iowa
And all those teams are top 25

‘But we have a loaded back field bro; Lo can’t play.’
-See FSU during Dalvin years
-See Bama last yr
-See Clemson
-See UGA
-See ND

I swear I’m not trying to be on my hood down tip, but some of these mofos got excuses to explain excuses. Excuses are tools of the incompetence, and no, I didn’t expect Manny to be some world beater, but he decided to run his mouth to give us the feel he’ll be a world beater. Some things r excusable, but majority of this unexplainable, chit of a show that’s going on, is not.

Now fight me on anything I just laid out.

We have a long history of fcking with talented players. They’re never ready to play here for some reason. We did that **** with Arthur Brown. Then he went to KSU and had 120 tackles every year.

You remember the "he's not ready yet" meme on grassy back in the day? **** was infuriating and seemed to happen all the time around here.
 
Lo should be getting some snaps over Harris 100%. Sorry but Harris hasn't been good at all this year. He has like 2 good runs and they were both called back by holding. Deejay is playing great
