He complains but the rules don’t apply to him he chooses who to go after but if you pull receipts he disappears. Someone must of said his name three times today and he popped out like candy man.

I know Mensah was a late addition from a portal perspective. He was running or pressured for his life vs Notre Dame and in a few other games as well and when you have a QB like Mensah, we would all like to see him operating behind a solid O-line.

It’s better what we have here va what he had at Duke and he’s talented enough to overcome a lot of it but IMO, I don’t think he will be able to overcome this line vs better competition in the playoffs. Not with a defense that isn’t capable of helping out the offense much by creating havoc and turning opponents over.

I've said for at least weeks now if we don't address what's going on with this defense and the personnel packages were using (second half was allot better looks) then this team is definitely not ready for the playoffs. Offensive line just simply adds to that fact. I also don't believe Mensah is exactly who you guys think he is. He's good but he gets frazzled pretty easily. Against Real defenses we can't have that occurring. Dawson definitely did him no favors with the first half he called last week but he didn't do his part either.

That first half was bad on both Dawson and Mensah.

I just have to reset expectations
I was so hurt after losing to Indiana I was hoping we could win the title this year
But at best we are like ole miss last year
And we’ll get bodied in the playoffs against a team with a dline
So that’s why just win the acc win the first round game
And next year
Hopefully we’ll have
Samson congdon sj jatorri cantwell/irvin
And that should be a pretty solid oline that takes us over the top esp with Mali as a junior

Even the dline should be better
after seeing this team play
I doubt Blount Scott or lightfoot go pro
Unless they have a cfp run like Bain and mesi last year

dont count us out we can still win in all, unlikely but not impossible
 
@DMoney, this result is no surprise. I would love a pod with you and Ahmmon why the staff continued to pursue here.

To me, it was obvious a mile away he wasn’t a Cane. I’m sure Amir told Mario the same if asked. Was there a failure in communication, or was the kid faking interest to troll? Either way, amazing class and we freaking stacked. I hate giving this fairy the opportunity to twist the knife after a tough road loss. Wish we publicly were out on him like Kaden Henderson with his games.

Good Qb but very skittish

Are you saying this notre dame team is one of the two most talented teams we've faced in three years? I'd hope that's not what you were saying. This year's team isn't even close to as talented as last year's was.

On paper, it is. If you expand it to 2023, Notre Dame had the third highest composite.

1) .9208 (2023) Texas A&M
2) .9153 (2025) Ohio State
3) .9129 (2026) Notre Dame
4) .9102 (2025) Notre Dame
5) .9000 (2025) Texas A&M
6) .8972 (2025) Florida
7) .8942 (2024) Florida State

Idk if this has been posted yet…but one of the rumors is that MM didn’t like our fan base after the Texas A$M comments.

So if true….thank god. Because, there’s no way he would make it here if he’s that emotionally soft.

Ive been pretty vocal about the homophobic stuff being directed at him being lame af.

With that said, that played ZERO part in his decision and if he says it did, its just a convenient excuse.

He was never committing here.

And if he thinks the Miami fans were bad just wait til he gets a load of some of that good ol fashioned Southern racism hes about to experience. The boosters wont even let Kirby start a full time Black Qb.

Some of y'all don't comprehend what's actually going on. **** the recruitment it is what it is. But when you keep saying how desperately we need an influx of talent on the offensive line, it really screams some of y'all clueless. Do you know how any lines work 9.9 out of 10 times. It takes time to come together and develop. That's not saying the people we have on here are the answer or anything else. It's just saying the obvious. Told you last year the offensive line was going to take some time to come together because we're going to have four new starters and five new positions. If you think you replace that in one season and get them back to peak form y'all really are ****** clueless. Some of y'all saying Jackson is a bust because he didn't come in like cici ready to play day 1 on a national championship caliber team. News flash, if cici would've signed with us and we were a national championship caliber team him or annez wouldn't have played year 1 either. Just calm down a little bit. Would it be great to get more talent? Yeah absolutely, you always want the most talent possible. But if all of a sudden you're questioning if Mario and Mirabel can recruit and develop offensive line talent, then just go shoot yourselves. Jump off a ****** building. Cuz life ain't meant for you... None of us want to see us struggle. But this is the reality of having all these new starters and replacing the talent that we replaced. When you didn't give the people that would be replacing them snaps previously, then you're going to have to go through the pains that come with developing them in the present. This is exactly the problem we are having now and will have next year at other positions. Just deal with it. Portal or not you're still going to have problems it's just a matter of how much and how quickly you can get through them. Tighten the **** up and quit all this crying. Whether or not this fruit signs with us or goes anywhere else just is what it is. We have the number two recruiting class in the country and y'all are complaining like ******* because one kid that's shown over and over he doesn't want to be here is debating if he can force himself to or not. Sad bunch of grown *** men acting like hoes...

I get it. But same issue applies. The talented upper classmen that we had are already gone. The line is extremely young. Never received meaningful snaps, let alone played as a unit. Some playing brand new roles and we're seeing the struggles as a result. All this panic and desperation won't change that. Mccoy, only returning starter & an entirely new position. New starters in New positions all around him. Samson only other one with experience & again new position (at this level) and New starters around him. A good line becomes that because they know the strengths and weaknesses of the people around them. Familiarity. That doesn't exist at all right now. Sj from one side to the next. Buchanon,congdon,etc. sure Rodriguez has some familiarity but that dude's played guard and had never been healthy let alone with this group... Anyone in a position to play has next to no experience.

This is the youngest team that Mario has fielded; the average football experience entering this season was just 1.60. The only teams that we faced with less experience this season were Central Michigan, Florida State, and UNC.

Average Football Experience - Miami
2026: 1.60 years
2025: 1.77 years
2024: 1.81 years
2023: 1.80 years
2022: 1.93 years
