One of the best posts I’ve ever read. Wish there was an argument to be made against it. The reality is that we are in the inexcusable disaster you described.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.
First game back off an injury, and we're playing CMU? I wouldn't have played him either, to give him 3 more weeks to rest up for V'tech.

Why does he need rest before playing another sorry coastal team? You don’t think Enos offense needed help against Central Michigan?

Now fight me on anything I just laid out.
The OL had so many jailbreaks in the CMU game. DJ could barely get the handoff secured befor he had to juke or break a tackle. Lingard is not the answer to our problems is really my only point.
You're picking a lot a statistical outliers to prove a generalized point.
My post was very simple and not emotional at all. My point is I never said anyone is a savior I said put him in the freaking game so we do t have our 5* RB transfer. It’s as simple as that, and every game he’s played he’s proven that he is gifted.
I replied to the wrong post my bad
Never saw that, but it’s been a theme here forever.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.
Why dress him and tell the world he’s ready to play if he isn’t? You guys are maxing out your lower cognitive functions by stretching for goofy **** to prop up the coaches.His father and the fans asking for him to play are the same ones that would be complaining that he was brought back too early if he's played and gets hurt again.
But where is our "positive outlier" 2006-? Where is our positive externality? We're just like the Dolphins, always mediocre but (according to the eternal optimists) just one player or one play away from a different season. People are tired of hearing the same coachspeak season after season with zero results to show.You're picking a lot a statistical outliers to prove a generalized point.
Yep they'll be saying exactly that as he being taken off the field in a stretcher.His father and the fans asking for him to play are the same ones that would be complaining that he was brought back too early if he's played and gets hurt again.
Bingo! We almost lost to CMU...and one of the reasons was a paltry 2 ypc average against them. Not playing Lingard almost led to an embarrassing loss to a directional school. Yikes.Why does he need rest before playing another sorry coastal team? You don’t think Enos offense needed help against Central Michigan?

Diaz: We are looking for the right time to play Lorenzo Lingard
Former five-star running back Lorenzo Lingard is working his way back from injury--and getting close to playing again.247sports.com
Correct. CMU was really the first game he was full go. Coach literally said he had his first inside run drills since being hurt just this last week. Yet it's some crime against humanity and indictment of Manny that we didn't bring him on that same week while we're in an unexpected dog fight against CMU with a very real chance of losing? And pops goes crying on social media threatening transfer? GTFO And yet it gets basically supported by 16 pages of the same sh-t here as well. smhI didn’t realize he had only been cleared for full contact just a couple of weeks ago.
So CMU was definitely the first game where he could have potentially seen any action.
Apparently he’s also still somewhat tentative on the leg.
Diaz from the article/radio:
“What we see is a guy who is getting more and more confident in his leg,” Diaz said of how Lingard looks in practice. “You are talking about a guy that has only been cleared for full contact two weeks ago.
“I think this week he might have done his first four plays of inside run drill. That is all part of it.”
First I’ve heard of any of this.
