He's a liar. Said the same **** about the changes coming to the offense last year. He's in over his head. He's fishing without bait. He's done. 86 this fn guy asap. He makes Golden look good. Unbelievable

Oh our QBs CAN make throws, no doubt. Their problem is they can't find the right guy to throw to. Arm talent is not the issue. Reading what the D is giving and being able to take it is an issue.

Yeah, the OL looked brutal at times, but even when they held up well, our QBs looked lost. We need a QB with football smarts, not just a good arm and the ability to run 20mph. Timing, decision making, and just a good football IQ. Is that too much to ask for in a UM QB?

Manny put his trust in his players obviously a huge mistake while behind the scenes they “ went through the motions “.

This is one of the lessons Manny learned, your dealing with kids who think there adults you can never trust children to make good decisions without adult supervision.

I tell my 4 year old granddaughter no and next minute does it anyway, high school enabled players worse they’re spoon fed headline reading children with no experience except the football field.

Try telling a child they did something wrong look in there eyes you see just eyes nothing else .

Never ever trust children to do the right thing, now Manny knows to some extent he’s running a daycare till they finally get it some never do like the JW type till a shovel and pick is in there future

Where I REALLY feel hoodwinked is that we were lead to believe Tate coming in would make the QB room so much better. Man, were we wrong.

Hard to tell without seeing him play more, but we clearly had 1 QB that practiced extremely well and the other may have been a lights go on type of guy.....

I used to think it was a combination of reads and receivers not getting open. Part of the problem is the cameras are focused on the QB so you rarely get to see the receivers. Turns out there were plenty of times a receiver was open and the QB just didn't see it. They just don't have that quick decision making that's needed. I don't know if that's something that can develop, but right now its lacking.
 
There are so many frustrating things about our offensive situation.

Manny said last offseason he wanted the type of offense he's talking about now, but we ended up with Dan Enos. So either he lied to us from the start, or he is so ignorant about offenses today he thought Enos would provide the type of aggressive, dynamic he spoke about previously.

Beyond that, we, once again, are late to the party. College football has made the transition to a majority of spread offenses for over a decade now. Oklahoma, Clemson, UF, Ohio State. Even traditional ground and pound powers like Bama and LSU have. USC finally went to an air raid this year, and they, like us, can't let go of the past pro-style, bro says. With our recruiting base we should've been at the forefront of this transition. Instead we're bringing up the rear, and that's more frustrating than anything.

Quick decision making ability is right. How many times did we see him think twice before throwing late and behind a receiver last week?

Is Doug Peterson available? Now that guy is a coach & motivator.

The U needs a coach that doesn't crumble under the pressure when Plan A & B don't work due to injuries, etc.

He hasn't fixed the culture like he states. I can't believe he said that. He doesn't know how to adapt himself or get his players to adapt to adversity. They played hard and didn't give up at times but it was never in unison.

The guy sucks and needs to be replaced. We are stuck with him one more year so it is what it is. He gets no benefit of the doubt until he proves it on the field.

Enos has really good offenses at Arkansas. He also had a better O-line and QB. We didn’t have the personnel to run his offense here and Enos couldn’t adapt. End of story.

Exactly. People acting as if Manny knowingly hired a completely unqualified, incapable person to be OC are using some serious revisionist history. At the time of the hire, it was widely considered a major win for UM per pundits, sports writers, and college football experts across the board. Multiple articles considered it to be one of the best CFB hires of that offseason. Yes, it turned out to be a complete dud, but Manny was far from the only person who was fooled.

Nothing Diaz says/claims can be believed. If all these things were important to him, he wouldn't have waited until after a disastrous season and even more disastrous bowl appearance to make it happen.

Or he would have, you know, hired an OC who runs an uptempo, spread offense the first time around like he implied he was going to do.

@WhatTheHell please bump your thread exposing Enos’s track record as a middling to poor OC prior to ever coaching a down here.

Believe it or not, it was a dud because of mainly because of Manny. Enos is a **** OC, but he could’ve adapted had there been a head coach that told him to adapt his offense. Mannys lack of respect by enos was a major problem and I bet he runs into it again if he hires an established name.

You can bump whatever thread you wish. Doesn't change the fact that the near consensus view of the CFB experts was that Enos' hiring was a major win for Miami, ranking it among the best hires of that year. So maybe "WhatTheHell" turned out to be right, but almost every CFB expert and sportswriter was then wrong.
 
If rich rodriguez is a candidate it would be pure comedy to see if coach diaz falls for that trap, flake james would sign off on it quickly because he'd just be the next headcoach in waiting. But furthermore, it would just be another big hypocritical indictment of the bogus administration running the program if rodriguez gets the nod, lol, but i wouldnt be surprised. But ok, if we going spread, that'll just make us an even weaker team, lol, coach diaz is all over the place. It was comical watching the offense this year, it was as if coach diaz took enos already in the film room and showed him old Miami Hurricane footage from the championship years, and ssid this is what i want us to look like, and the arrogant enos already was like, oh yeah, playaction, i got that in my ****nal, and he was just running it when it didnt make sense and coach diaz standing their getting hyped up thinking, ok ok, THERE IT IS, 2 clueless ****'s. So now, he's all about the spread, lol, the spread alone is not gone save em, again, he better make sure he brings in an oc that has common sense and knows how to think and make adjustments.

It was pure comedy watching that Clemson game and seeing trevor lawrence run all over them, ohigho fake had everybody covered except him. None of these teams play good defense to me, and that Isaiah simmons guy is good but seems overrated to me, the 2 teams i wanted in the championship game are there, and im sure for those trying to bash coach rumph and coach banda, i bet brent veneables is going to look at our game from last year to see how we held joe burrow to 140yrds passing, that's the joe burrows i know, and im sure Clemson is going to try and run the ball as much as possible to give Lsu the least amount of possesions as possible!

I agree. Manny should have put his foot down and demanded that Enos adapt the offense as the season progressed and it was clear it was not working. Don't know if him not doing so is a function of his being a first time head coach or what, but that absolutely was a ***** up on his part.
