Miami failed bad in the portal. No Qb, No DT's or DE's

When Hernan Cortez embarked upon the conquest of the Aztec empire, he burned the boats they came on so his soldiers wouldn't have any way back unless they completed the conquest, this made them fight harder. That is what Mario has done here, he has set the team up for mediocrity next year (i.e. burned the boats) so the team knows that next Monday will be the best chance they will ever have and will be more motivated.

Not saying I agree with the strategy or think it is necessary but I could see that being his mindset

Though I understand the frustration, I think this is kind of part of the double edged sword of having success.
Do you bring in all kinds of visitors, and have commits and it shreds the culture of your current locker room? I’m sure it’s much more of a delicate balance than you’d think.
I’m sure Leavitt will do well under Kiffin.

Hindsight being 20/20 we probably should’ve pursued Raiola harder. But with him being younger, it could cost you in the long run with Nickel and/or Coleman.

This is the portal world we live in. Live by it, possibly die by it. We will be ok. I have faith we will figure it out.

I still remember when I beat the Pikes at the Keg Toss during Greek Week. They brought out some goon wearing lifing gloves (I knew he was cooked at that moment), who lifted it above his head and hurled it a ways. I had practiced a different technique where I used my legs for force to hurl it backwards over my head from a squatting position and put major spin and torque on the keg. I just about doubled up his throw.

Suck it OP. I think I banged your girlfirend that night too.

**** it OP, you're right, we should throw in the towel and forfeit next Monday.

On a serious note, I've learned my lesson on addressing the concerns of our roster under Mario via transfers. He's done pretty **** well there and who are we to complain to this point.

Overall yes, but with a major weakness at the most important position on the field that significantly impacts our chances of winning the ACC and/or making the playoffs. Again, we’re talking a qb in Emory who ECU fans think is an option for them. If any of our rivals put themselves in this position we would be CLOWNING them mercilessly.

We’ve put ourselves in position to have 4 five stars on the d line with more potential and just as much production as anyone in the portal besides 1 or 2 guys we will be fine
