Should Manny replace Baker this offseason. What are some hypotheticals or hot names to be on the lookout for as far as new DC?
my man I’m a 40 year old spaghetti bender in Central New York....I live and die canes football by you and a few others news.
if you catch one single scent of Blake gone, please tell me? I’m tired of my wife threatening to leave me because of my coursing him out in front of my daughter.

When I saw Richt’s praise of King, I couldn’t help but think what might have been if Richt had just hired an offensive genius at OC instead of installing his son as QB coach/recruiter and running the offense himself.
Now Manny is making the EXACT SAME MISTAKE with the defense. Sure, Baker is not his son like John Richt was. So hopefully Manny can be more ruthless and fire him at the end of the season. But why hire a mini-me in the first place? He just couldn’t let go of the defense and be a HC. Had to have his “boy” manage his squad for him.
Manny needs to clean house and bring in a proven winner at DC who runs his own system and stands on his own two feet.

I wonder if the "respect" issues you identify on defense (which I totally agree with) are not lack of respect for Diaz but lack of respect for Baker and Diaz affording him a long leash. Regardless, these are the type of issues Ed is there to fix, but it won't happen over night.
I didn't like the Baker hire. I've been willing to give him a chance because it's early and we've generally put up good numbers on D. But I have to agree here -- he's an absolute disaster. I expected the D to take a big step back after last season but this is just downright awful at this point.
Baker won't be "fired." He'll probably take an HC job at some nothing school in the South and cite "being closer to family" as part of the reason. The problem is where do we go from there? I seriously don't see Diaz promoting Banda to DC but I wouldn't put it past him. I'm actually expecting him to take a DC job elsewhere too.

I see what you're getting at here, but comparing Jon Richt to Blake Baker, as bad as Baker has been, is still insane.
Lil' Richt was the most unqualified coach we have probably ever hired as a football program. He'll probably never have a comparably legitimate coaching job again in his life.
The Golden/Onofrio comparison is probably a bit more apt.

I like Mallory and don’t wanna knock him, but he’s 6’5” and what like 250? He needs to quit trying to juke DBs and just run through/over them

Offense:
D'Eriq King - 31/41 430yds 5TD's at 75%cmp & 15att 105yds rushing
Mike Harley - 8rec 153yds & 2TD's
Mark Pope - 6rec 97yds & 1TD
Will Mallory - 6rec 78yds & 1TD
Dee Wiggins - 7rec 77yds & 1TD
Cam'ron Harris - 15att 62yds & 2rec 12yds
Jaylan Knighton - 5att 13yds
Don Chaney Jr - 3att 14yds
Gained 620yds (431 passing & 189 rushing) of total offense, ran 83 plays at 7.9 yards per play with 30 first downs, went 7-16 on 3rd down with 33:00 in time of possession.
Astronomical performance by the offense tonight!
Great job by King on pulling it from the Mesh point on that 4th down run on the first drive. King WAS ON FIRE!!! This was his best game of his career, he put the team on his back willed us to victory, this was the greatest single game performance by a Miami QB in decades. THIS IS WHAT I/WE MEANT WHEN WE WERE HYPING WHAT THIS KID WOULD BRING TO THIS TEAM IN THE OFFSEASON! King went straight GODMODE! An made a colossal effort to drag this team to another win.
Great teardrop throw by King to Harley for the TD, Harley also did a great job getting depth on his Corner route, he got the DB to overstep expecting an in route & broke him off something proper getting to the corner end zone pylon, great play call on 3rd down.
Mike Harley following up his great UVA performance with a game winning TD! He played his best game of his career tonight, his route running was crisp & precise, he caught every thrown to him & on the game winning TF had great balance staying on his feet & taking the quick slant to the house for 54yds! I was hard on him for his early struggles in the season but he deserves a ton of credit for stepping up & becoming our best playmaker in this WR corps.
Congrats to Pope getting his first TD on the season, he had a bad drop in 2nd quarter, but he made up for it in the 3rd with 2 very good catches. Just keep at it & keep working.
Thank God Dee Wiggins actually caught the TD on the Go route lol. He also had a bounce back game after not performing well for a majority of the season since FSU.
Will Mallory has done a terrific job filling in for Brevin Jordan, he's really stepped up & blossomed as the go to TE in this offense.
Chaney has a nice run early, Cam had a bounce back game with a couple nice runs late in the 3rd & 4th quarter
Lashlee showed up & called a masterful game, he kept us in this game without any help from the Defense whatsoever.
NC St got away with an illegal hold in the end zone on the drive to start the 2nd half on that 3rd down play in the red zone. Wiggins got clearly grabbed & spun around by Dunlap in the end zone.
The biggest difference between this year & last year is QB & OC that's why we're winning games.
The refs completely ****ed us on those goaline plays, they literally took 2 TD's away with a bullshìt "review" & called an awful false start. They also allowed NC St to get away with another blatant hold on Hodges.
This is probably the best offensive performance Miami has had since the 90's (I don't k ow that for a fact just guessing based of the production). For everybody that was doubting Lashlee & thinking he wasn't good, pay attention; HE LITERALLY TOOK OVER THIS GAME & WAS THE DE FACTO HEAD COACH, HE BASICALLY WON THIS GAME IN SPITE OF MANUELITO & BLAKE FAKER!
Legitimately the worst officiating crew I've ever seen in my life since the Ron Cherry days, they tried their damnedest to ***** us over.
Defense:
Jaelan Phillips - 10tcks 1.5TFL's & 1 sack
Amari Carter - 7tcks & 1PBU
Gilbert Frierson - 6tcks & 1TFL
Quincy Roche - 6tcks & 0.5TFL's
Nesta Silvera - 5tcks & 1TFL
Jared Harrison-Hunte - 5tcks & 0.5TFL's
Bradley Jennings Jr - 4tcks & 0.5TFL's
Sam Brooks - 4tcks
Te'Cory Couch - 1tck 1TFL & 1 sack
Al Blades Jr - 5tcks & 1PBU
DJ Ivey - 1tck & 1INT
Defense gave up a despicable 410yds total offense, but forced 1 critical turnover.
First drive was horrendous by the Defense, NC St just completely marched down the field & scored without any resistance. That would be the theme of the night, they moved the ball at will, literally up until the last 5min of the 4th quarter. Completely embarrassing performance by this Defense, they ought to be ashamed of themselves.
I literally identified in my NC St preview that they run WR Pass play with Thayer once they pass midfield & get into the 30. I knew they were going to call that play, Baker is a dumbass.
No exaggeration this is literally what I said word for word verbatim: Thayer Thomas 6'0 195lbs is their Slot WR, they throw to him a majority of the time on 1st downs, he's a short area Slot with good speed, he gets in & out of his breaks with quickness & an explosive player. He also can throw the ball well... Why does it matter if he can throw? Because they used him on multiple trick plays last year where he threw the ball on 5 WR pass plays for 2TD's (the QB throws him the ball on what looks like a Bubble screen, but then he throws it to another WR either streaking from the same Bunch stacked formation or a WR on the other side of the field running free after the Defense has bitten down on defending against the Slot screen). This season he's already thrown it twice. The Defense better be on alert for this trick play with Thayer, especially given Hockman being such a terrible passer himself, they'll be pulling out all the stops & 30-40yd WR pass play would be an easy TD if we're not prepared for it. Coach Baker, if I noticed this then you better have too!
Here's the linkhttps://www.canesinsight.com/threads/nc-state-preview.165186/
Bolden is really a subpar tackler, that's back to back weeks he's went in for a soft shoulder tackle & literally bounced off a WR. Plus the bad angle & missed tackle on the run by Person.
On the long run by Person in the 2nd quarter, that was just a flat out terrible play call, that side of the field was wide open because Blades was sent on an unnecessary Blitz & was ran completely out of the play leaving a **** near 20 yard chasm wide open for him to run through.
Secondary was awful tonight;
Blades on the pass to Emeka got worked on a post route on the first drive, then had an awful PI penalty & then in the 2nd half got worked again by Emezie on another Deep ball. This was his absolute worse game of the season.
DJ Ivey had no idea where the ball was on the TD to Devin Carter, he's a Boundary Corner that has no clue how to use the Boundary, the sideline is supposed to be an extra Defender for the Boundary Corner, but for Ivey WR's actually uses it against him somehow smh. Yes he got the INT late, but that doesn't excuse Blades & Ivey's play for the rest of the entire game.
Te'Cory Couch was the only DB that played good football tonight, he was the only one that had any fire in his belly & actually played like he got some **** sense. For the 21 class absolutely need a Portal CB.
Baker, Patke & Rumph gotta go! They weigh this team down both in their inability to coach their units consistently & their inability to recruit, they are net negative not a net positive & have done nothing but underperform their entire tenures at Miami. **** poor job by these coaches this season with their units.
What a completely idiotic penalty by Roche, that weak *** OL was clearly flopping like James Harden & he sold it to these overly litigious ACC refs that would throw a flag on every play if they could, but Roche has to be smarter than that & not fall for the obvious trolling by a soft OL, he goaded him to push him & it worked.
Defense looked lethargic & tired all game, they were completely sleepwalking & playing like they were uninterested. This was their worst performance since the Clemson game. Miami got cracked open & was pure Swiss cheese all game.
This team is still incredibly undisciplined, we had 8 God damned penalties in the first half & 12 penalties for 101yds on the game, that's as unacceptable as it gets. These players don't look at Manny as a disciplinarian figure that they have to respect, they just play recklessly & are plagued with constant mental errors, when they make a huge mistake he just brings them over to the sideline & coddles them. This team specifically on Defense are an overly chirpy bunch that plays unfocused & spends all game long talking shìt while getting slid up & down the field against teams that aren't phased by their trash talk at all. They think they're better than they actually are & don't realize they're not intimidating anybody with the constant yapping they do after every play. It's a sign of a team that has no authority figure at the top that can reinforce a standard & correct their immature behavior on the field.
Now let me get to the Baker man...
Baker called an absolute garbage game, again another player I identified in the my preview was their TE Angeline, they throw to him frequently in the Red Zone, so when NC St drives into the Red Zone, what does Baker do??? Sit back in soft Cover 3 Zone & leaves the TE unaccounted for, just like he does for every TE we play, Baker for some odd reason does not believe that the TE needs to be covered ever. He is a ****** horrendous Coordinator.
Baker has a wooden & laconic personality, he has no fire at all & he doesn't demand excellence from this Defense, his philosophy is just to barely survive while hanging onto a thread, this is worse than Bend but don't Break, it's give up as many yards & as many TD's as possible, aimlessly Blitz on every play & just hope something goes wrong.
He's a lazy *** nightshift security guard asleep in the surveillance room while the burglars are breaking in the building & stealing all the merchandise. He's a big ****** ZERO, a nothing, a poor excuse of a Corch & has entered into D'Noforio territory, he coaches Defense like he's an assistant manager at an Office Max, just Bland with no courageousness or tenacity at all. FIRE HIM.
On special teams, what are the odds that we would actually give up a ****** Kick Return for a TD, we usually literally boot the ball to the back of the end zone, but it was just pure dumb luck & ill-preparedness for us to give up a TD on Special Teams too. This team just figures out ways to shoot ourselves in the foot in those moments.
Overall, this was a spectacular offensive game, but we looked like a Big XII team out there, we looked like Texas Tech on Defense, that was a **** travesty. Thank God for D'Eriq King, Rhett Lashlee, Mike Harley, Will Mallory & the offense, they won this game for us despite having no Defense to assist them at all.
A win is a win & I'll take it, but it shouldn't have to require a Herculean record breaking effort by King in order to beat a team like NC St. This team needs to seriously pull their heads out of their own *** if they wanna survive on the road vs a good Va Tech offense, if the Defense doesn't fix the issues these last 4 games against teams that really have nothing to play for (except for UNC) are gonna be an arduous task to overcome.
Keep winning, but this shìt better be addressed ASAP!

The coaches that you mentioned on defense will be gone after this season. Manny knows to take the next step he needs a Lashlee type of badass coordinator on defense likes he has for offense. Competition at every position is a must. We are thin at corner and we need at a minimum two corners in this class ***** getting a qb unless he's **** near a King clone(dual qb) . Smarter players is what we're lacking. Some of this stuff I see them do I've seen Miami teams do the same things for the past 15 years so a part of me says it's not coaching. Winning will get us the ability to recruit better players so I'm thankful for the W.
Small steps keep in mind Liberty City El we weren't great last year and we're 6-1 right now. Last year we won only 6 games. We still have plenty more W's coming our way and I think Manny needs to go ahead and take over the defense. I'm not happy with the team overall but I'm seeing the progress from last year to this year and I know it's small steps but we will get there.

Idk man, I can't think of a Miami defensive end that would sit there and let an offensive lineman sit their nuts on top of them on a dead play without getting very aggressive, very fast. Toolbox trent, and Demetrius Jackson are the most disciplined dudes I can think of recently and I could see them having a similar reaction.

100%.
The first name needs to be Marcus Freeman from Cincinnati, Chad Staggs from Coastal Carolina, Dale Jones from App St & Pat Toney from Louisiana.
Unrealistically, a guy like Dan Lanning from UGA would be a hot name but I don't think we could afford him.
Kevin Steele from Auburn is another unrealistic hot name, although he has some old FSU Bobby Bowden ties to Manny & Coach Stroud.
Another unconventional route I would personally go, is Mike MacDonald, the LB's coach for The Ravens, he's a Georgia boy that played & coached HS ball down in Georgia & got his first professional coaching gig ever being hired by Coach Richt at UGA as a Grad Assistant & then got elevated to an Analyst.
He's been coaching in the NFL for the last 6 years though, so I highly doubt he would even be interested in coming back to college.

Add Stroud to the list.
He is ok coach but compared to the rest of the bums on Defensive staff he looks like the second coming of Parcells.
Imagine having Charlie Partridge or Jess Simpson as the DL coach. They could probably teach the DL how to use their ******* hands.

Bruh...
Somebody might wanna slap me for saying this, but I honestly believe if Richt was our HC with Lashlee as OC & Manny as DC this team would win the ACC...
Crazy I know, I just think he's kinda lowkey exactly what we're missing a, true CEO style HC that is fair but also a hard disciplinarian. Say what you want about Richt & believe me I was very critical of his 2018 season here, but he's brought the Canes the most success we've had in 15 years.
The 2016 & 2017 Canes played the best ball we've played since 03 as crazy as that sounds.
Richt had his faults, but if he had an OC like Lashlee, he would've had even greater succes here (obviously barring any major health issues).

I get what you mean, but in that situation you just wait until the ref comes to pull him off of you.
That kid literally sat there & expected for that to happen, he set him up knowing as soon as Roche touched him the refs were gonna throw the flag.
He goaded him.

I hear ya. But we are undisciplined up front and rarely set the edge even when we aren’t blitzing or doing dumb stunts. Plus our DEs get way too far up field all too often when they rush. I just don’t like any of our defensive coaches. Our fundamentals are trash....
We need recruiters and great coaching/development. We need to produce 1st round talent. Miami has always been able to sign Safeties, and we’ve had Frosh play better than our Safeties now. I’m not impressed with Banda.

Lib, the whole first half, NCSt would give a hard count -- while the play clock was at like 18 seconds -- and are guys kept jumping into where they planned to blitz from, or offsides. I mean, isn't anyone telling them to just hold still and not do anything till the clock is below 10. It was amazing how easy our guys were baited over and over again
Again, poor coaching and low football IQ

Freeman is gonna be a HC soon.
why not swing for the fences and go after Muschamp? He will fired soon enough and his $17 million buyout will make it easier to afford him. He can bring TRob to coach DBs and Mike Peterson to coach LBs.
Derek Mason is another guy who should be free.
