Live: Blake James Press Conference (UPDATED w/video)

“but will be reminded about success of defense in place here. James believes UM had the best defense in the country last year.”

He is a ******* idiot if he really believes this.
 
Live from the James press conference, here were some notes on his comments.

**Was surprised at Richt’s decision to retire, no push to remove Richt.

**Said it was no secret that offense had struggled and they agreed changes to that side of the ball needed to be made.

**Declined to comment on specific candidates.

**New coach will have full reign of staff, but will be reminded about success of defense in place here. James believes UM had the best defense in the country last year.

**Search won’t focus on Miami ties, it will be about the best fit and best coach possible.

**James didn’t realize Travis Homer declared for the NFL due to hectic day. James feels he was an outstanding representative of the university and will have success.

**Feels like the bottom hasn’t fallen out after 10-0 and No. 2 ranking in 2017. Feels the talent is in place to make a run at the ACC Championship and National Title right now.

**Former players always have input. Everyone has different opinions on who to hire but it will be his decision to bring in who he feels is the best guy possible to lead the team.

Is there any way to watch the presser? YouTube? Miami athletics site? Thanks

What are you saying here? Keep the same Co-DCs?

No whoever the new coach is that comes in (unless we stupidly hire Diaz) is going to either reassign our CO-DC’s or fire them. They will not be DC’s next year, nor should they be.
 
Best defense? I believe ours was above average, but by no means were they world beaters.

What the Fuc!!!! you yapping about! Serious dude. It's obvious you had some type of ANIMOSITY towards Coach Diaz. Do you realize the PIZZ POOR field position Miami's defense was put in, time after time after time after time. And what about the ATROCIOUS special teams which put an IMMENSE burden on Coach Diaz's defense. Again, time after time after time after time.

It's also a post modern day MIRACLE that Miami's defense NEVER gave up and threw in the proverbial Orange and Green towel. Otherwise, YOU and your horde of Cane minions would be staring at a LOSING RECORD right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now get the FUNK outta' my visage!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol, I never said our defense was bad. I loved Diaz actually, he was a breath of fresh air from Dorito. Just my opinion of When I think of elite CFB defenses I didn’t think of us, I understand the offense and feagles did no favors for them, but we also didn’t really play any elite offenses all year. We were good but not great, just my opinion.
