My Overall observations:
The Negatives
OL The Offensive line, in my opinion, was the biggest issue of the entire game. We can talk about QB all we want, but when we tried to run early in the game our OL got absolutely rocked to the point we had no choice but to pass to try and create first downs. They got manhandled, missed assignments, and were overall highly inconsistent. They looked under-talented AND under-coached. The only time they started to look decent was towards the end of the game when LSU changed their entire defensive unit and played a softer tech. Concerning, Richt said he thought the unit played well overall, especially to start the game. I found the complete opposite. I'm really beginning to distrust what this staff reports OR highly question their willingness to address reality.
QB We've talked Rosier to death. His accuracy issues have been prevalent since he started two years ago, and like Shadow said, was only masked to some fans by a winning product. How given that knowledge we are here in 2018 is mind boggling. Regardless, he's got to be done. I don't care what anybody says, unless his backups are total garbage we simply have to move on. If Richt can't get something out of Perry/Weldon/Williams that is better than Rosier, then this fanbase has nobody else to look at but him and his son... And frankly, even if they ball out in the next couple games, that still wreaks of mismanagement that we went into LSU with Rosier.
Feagles Talked to death. I just caught Richt's Savannah State presser where he says Feagles looks great in practice again. So help me god if that kid shanks an important punt in the next few games I'm pulling my donor payments.
LB Unit Shockingly bad. I'm not advanced enough to completely figure this out, but I've seen some respected folks say they think its Diaz's system. Whatever it is, our LBs were almost (see DT #2 and Diaz's over substituting) the only major liability on our defense. They were out of position, got swallowed by the OL, and generally failed to play any major impact in the game. Total waste of talent and or really bad developmental coaching. If we don't have really solid safety's, we will get absolutely torched in the run game based on what I'm seeing.
Special Teams Coaching This one really bugs me. To me, it was pretty clear after last year our STs coaching needed a change. I've posted this one to death but I'll reiterate, Miami was 117th in the country in Special Team's efficiencies out of 130. We instead chose to use our extra coach to promote a GA coach to train ***ing strikers alongside Diaz. That was a Shannon-esk move by Richt. Hartley continued to coach STs, not recruiting (or making a winning argument to recruit) a punter to go alongside Feagles and we show up game 1 looking totally unprepared. 1 punt busted block, 1 kicker infringement, 1 wall jump infringement, 2 untouched shanks, 1 punt that went beyond our coverage with little hangtime, 1 onside kick that went immediately out of bounds. I grew up as a cane fan watching Soldinger's special teams, it's a slap in the face to a program with so much natural STs talent in its recruiting area to have a coach so out of their depth. As I always say, Miami should always have one of the best STs in the country given its recruiting grounds. Miami deserves better coaching here and we had the chance this offseason to address it WITHOUT firing a coach and we didn't address it. Hair pulling to me.
#2 DT Our lack of DT recruiting has caught up with us. Bethel is not a DT that ACC championship teams have as a starter. He consistently got pushed out of the hole, a lot of LSU's early running success when we weren't blitzing our minds out came from our inability at this position. Kool being an idiot or not, this one is on Richt and Diaz as there were literal years to correct this issue.
Dean Our only liability on a starting secondary. He was picked on a lot (LSU was clearly avoiding Jackson). Dean is going to be tested all season. Hopefully he improves as time goes on but I'm not seeing his issue being experience/coaching, which leads me to believe he'll likely be as he is for the season.
Homer I like the kid but he seriously lacks vision. DJ is clearly the better back.
Richards Frustrated or not, he did not look the part in the early part of the game. Hightower actually looked better...
Defensive Subs Already discussed but D Smith, Knowles, Ivey and Jackson all in on the same play against LSU who doesn't run that many offensive plays. LoL, Diaz you're an idiot. Cost us that long run. PS. Knowles is still Knowles - bizarre playing time.
Jackson I'm not sure if anyone else caught this but his mobility is REALLY bad. Total liability at DE. At one point LSUs RB changed direction - it took Jackson nearly 7 yards to get his body turned around. I feel for the guy but he shouldn't be on the field.
The Positives
Thomas STUD. Best Miami WR I've seen here since Butch left. Really came into his own this offeason. Shockingly willing to put himself out there despite him being a speed/finess player. Assuming he doesn't mentally check out as the season goes on, my god.
Whole Defense In general, the defense is legit. What's sad is it could be better. Our LBs are lost in the system and our #2 DT is a big liability against anybody who can run the ball (we'll lose to Clemson based on that position alone).
Dallas Best RB on the team. I'm concerned with Brown's love affair with Homer. Consistently Dallas looked the part against LSU, creating extra yards DESPITE our OL getting their *** pushed in. Wheras Homer ran straight into the pile/downhill safety, DJ created extra space on each run. You can't win against defenses of this caliber with an RB that simply lowers its head. Really impressed with Dallas.
Jackson and Johnson The real deal. Top level NFL caliber DBs. Not really tested (especially Jackson). Johnson made play after play tackling however, bailing out Dean and our LBs.
DE Unit Studs, we know what we have here. They lost contain a few times but otherwise I think they looked really good and did what you'd expect them to do.
Willis As advertised. I saw him get pushed back once or twice but overall total animal. If only we weren't so weak next to him we'd dominate in the run game.
Hightower No drop off from what we saw in spring. Oddly, looked like the second best WR on the team if you watched closely.
Overall
My impression is Miami was not mentally prepared for this game. Leaving the QB alone, execution, mostly on the offensive and STs side of the ball showed serious quality control issues. Oline mentally were not prepared, RBs consistently missed blitz pickups, most of STs looked bushleague. For the second year I'm getting the sense the offense does not have a guy who is REQUIRING consistency across the coaching staff and players at a level that some of the great OCs do (I'm looking at you Richt). Additionally, personnel choices for an LSU matchup were very suspect; you're wasting snaps when you put B.Jordan and Mallory on the field against a team like LSU - I saw this multiple times, CUTE. Too much substitution on the defensive side, really reducing quality, against a team that doesn't run that many offensive plays. I'd argue the defensive subs cost us at least 10 points.
Physically, I think we're doing well in the weight room but our starters looked unready to deal with the strength and skill of the LSU starters in front of them. I think this is Richt's fault. Miami generally practices 1s vs. 2s, repetition training our players into muscle memory and techniques that work versus inferior strength and skill. LSU on the other hand I know practices 1s vs 1s. When you get into a game like this as the 1st game of the season, I think Miami's 1s were not used to dealing with the MEN across from them. That's a coaching issue.
Defensive calling wise, I think Many Diaz called a great game - a few key blitz calls completely halted LSU drives. I think he did some stupid things with his subs which I think he'll correct in the future; not sure why a coach with his experience made that mistake in the first place though.
Offensive calling wise, in general I think Richt called a great game. Our issues were quality control and personnel inabilities. Later in the game I saw some suspect avoidance to take advantage of LSU's disinterest in our shorter routes but that very well could be Richt's fear in Rosier's accuracy - a high throw in that scenario is a pick. I continue to think Richt is a masterful play caller, I have long-term concerns about his offensive philosophy which doesn't put our players in any strategic advantage and more importantly he's proving my suspicion that he and Brown aren't doing a very good job demanding or training discipline and consistency across the offense.
I see upcoming talent on the offensive side of the ball (Hightower, Jordan, DJ Dallas, Thomas), I'm not seeing that same superior talent shining through the ranks on the defensive side of the ball. Concerning and aligns with what I'm seeing on the recruiting side.
Regarding the QB, I'm not mad we didn't throw in Weldon (or even Perry if he'd been around). There's no point in throwing a kid like that to the wolves when the game was already out of hand against a defense like that. You get to develop these kids once, no sense in Kyle Wrighting them (anybody remember that FSU game, kid was never the same...)
This post was meant to be micro. I'm going to do another that brings some bigger concerns of mine forward. My notes from the game are below, they were done on a cell phone so be kind regarding typos etc.
