My Post Game Recap - UNC

What do you call the defensive formation that allows RBs to gain 10yds before getting touched?

at this point, I am just hoping we hang onto the studs we have coming in..
that said...I've never been more ashamed of a performance than what we just saw....you could SEE guys not even trying all night long.
record setting bad performance mind you...let that just sink in.

At the end of the day even if we hold on to those studs...we will only line them up incorrectly in a not sound defense.

If he doesn’t pull a dabo and can the dead weight he will be gone by year 5. Dabo got to a NY6 and got blown out after a really good season. So he canned Steele and got venebals. Changed the trajectory of the program.

Disclaimer: I don’t think manure is dabo. I think he ultimately gets canned somewhere between years 4&6

Hopefully in year 4. I don't know how I'd do with 4 more years of Manny.

New DC, new defensive staff. There isn’t one defensive position coach I’d retain.

Manny pulled the plug on Enos, Stubblefield, and the OL coach last season. He’d better show the same concern for his defense, starting an hour or so ago.

I can confidently say that the staph and players were all watching the dook highlights, stroking their ****s, looking up draft projections and practicing proper water sliding techniques instead of preparing. Zero ******* pride.

I don’t think this is the case. I’ll post later in the week when the board meltdown calms down a little, but I predicted we would get gashed on the ground. (No, I didn’t think we’d get gashed for 550)

The defense gave up after it was maybe 21-3. But this game was over before it started. UNC had the No 1 explosive rush offense in the national coming into this game. We were middle of the pack defensively.

The issue is the scheme. So many of us wanted an attacking, downhill scheme when D’No was here. Myself included. But the Diaz scheme just completely abandons gap integrity. That is the number 1 problem IMO. Yeah, GR can get 15 sacks and JHH and G Willis get upfield and disrupt from the DT position and make splash plays. But down to down, there are huge holes and cutback lanes that equally talented teams can, and do, expose.

The talent at the LB position is another thing I’ve been complaining about since the summer. If you are gonna have these cutback lanes and OL getting to your LBs untouched, you need talented LBs that can clean up the mess you made up front. We don’t have those and it showed today.

I have plenty more to say on the topic and I’ll weigh in later when I’m not typing on a cell. But I’m not sure baker is even the issue. It’s the scheme and the lack of talent.

@Liberty City El how do you balance the necessary firings with the early signing day? I can’t imagine many guys will want to sign if they don’t know who is going to be coaching them.

Offense:

Gaynor & the entire OL got completely overwhelmed, UNC's front 7 had them on skates all game. Zion, Scaife, Gaynor, Clark & Jarrid were pedestrian.

Wiggins got bullied by an 18 year old True Freshman who was supposed to be still in High School right. Tony Grimes was the #1 ranked 2021 CB in this year's class, but he reclassified & enrolled at UNC in August while he was still 17 years old & he absolutely just snatched the ball from Wiggs who has no strength whatsoever. Wiggins is a total waste of size, he's 6'3 but plays like he's 5'8, has no physicality at all & has no explosion or athleticism, he never plays the ball in the air & every time he makes a catch (on the rare occasions when he does) he's fighting the ball & it takes a miracle from Heaven just for him to hang onto it. Completely useless WR.

D'Eriq King, Brevin Jordan & Mike Harley were the only players on this team who had any cajones, who played with any heart & actually cared, everybody else just quit.

Defense:

Defense gave up a staggering 778 yards of total offense & 554 yards of rushing. We allowed a 300 yard rusher & gave up the most yards by 2 RB's on the same time in FBS HISTORY. Smfh. I also think that was the most yards allowed by a Miami Defense in school history.

DJ Ivey is a not a Miami caliber CB, he wouldn't start at FIU, **** he wouldn't start at Bethune Cookman, in fact there are CB's at Keiser & St. Thomas University that would play better than him. He's slow AF, stiff hipped, colossally bad eye discipline, plays with no physicality, doesn't know how to leverage to the sideline, gives up inside leverage more than any corner I've seen, opens the gate (meaning opens his hips too early) & can't cover down field at all. He's the WORST CB in coverage I've ever seen in my life. If he arbitrarily starts next year, whoever is in charge of that decision is a ****** idiot, put him on the bench & leave him there.

Amari Carter took an awful angle on the 65yd TD run by Michael Carter. And took terrible angles on just about every TD that was scored by UNC, he was just as bad as he's ever been in his career. Regardless of my personal feelings about off the field, on the field he's just not a good player & never needs to take another snap at this program again.

Zach McCloud is horrendous, BJ Jennings is horrible. The entire LB corps is slow & undisciplined, they play with no gap integrity & they look like a bunch of JV FCS players. The LB group is Baker's unit & this group along with the CB group plays like pure garbage against any offenses with any team speed.

Gurvan Hall looked completely silly on the 2nd TD run by Michael Carter.

FIRE BLAKE BAKER & MIKE RUMPH! There's no justifiable reason to keep either one of them on staff. They are the two biggest liabilities both on the field & on the recruiting trail, they have no redeemable qualities & they've both made themselves expendable for horrible Defensive performances this season in games like Louisville, Clemson, NC St & UNC. If Diaz doesn't wanna go out like Al Folden, he better pull his head out of his *** & get rid of the bums on his Corching staff. Blake Baker is worse than Mark D'Onfrio, he has the charisma of a broken statue, he's gonna go down as the worst DC in Miami history & that's really saying something because we've had some really bad ones over the years.

This Defense was completely EMBARRASSED, Run Defense was ATROCIOUS, they were lifeless, they played like a bunch of kids who have never even played the game of football before. Every single player on the Defense took God awful angles & they just quit. The entire Defense played as if they forgot their was a game today, they looked slow, sluggish & completely lethargic, they had no fight whatsoever, they got hit in the mouth & folded up like a lawn chair. This was worse than the 2015 UNC beat down.

Every time this team makes any progress they get too big headed & get smacked back to reality, it's 1 step forward & 2 steps back. This was as bad as a performance as Diaz had when he was DC at Texas & BYU gashed them for over 600yds & Mack Brown fired him.

I don't care who doesn't comeback, I actually hope they all leave early, this team needs an infusion of talent & continuing to hide behind slow upperclassmen will only leave us exactly where we are, which is a team that can't compete with any other team that has legitimate talent. We can beat up on the lesser teams, but get our *** whooped every time we play a good team. We're a paper Tiger.

Any & all leeway that Diaz had bought himself up until this point is completely lost, obviously the administration won't fire him up after this year, but he's gonna end up like Al Folden & eventually get shîtcanned because he's too stubborn to make changes to the Defense.

The refusal to recruit Corners has caught up to this team & it will only get worse come next year, change this ****** Defense around & or the 2021 season will be just like the 2018 season following the 10 win 2017 season. What a horrible ****** way to end the season, extremely disappointing & more of the same nonsense that has plagued this program for the last 17 years, Diaz you're on the clock, either fix this shît ASAP on you're going down in flames just like all your predecessors.

Oh & I'm almost certain whoever we get in whichever Bowl game we get is going to beat our asses too, because it's beyond obvious this Defense just wants to go home. We just killed whatever recruiting momentum we had with this shît show performance, same old Canes on that same old bullshît Smfh.

What a ****** disgrace smh.

Well said LCE. I was at this game and I am sick over it. Beyond a disgrace.

I agree 100% with you. I have lost total faith in Baker and D. I am starting to believe Diaz is not a Miami caliber HC. If he doesn't change up the D staff immediately, he will he gone after next year.

Why no halftime adjustments on D?

Miami has to eventually figure out if they are truly serious about winning big. Otherwise, just keep going with the status quo.

In my opinion, I think Cristobal or someone like that would win big here. It doesn't take a Nick Saban to win at Miami. The problem is we keep hiring the bottom of the barrel everytime at HC.
 
Besides that one long pass, Ivey balled out today.

Off the top of my head, He had an INT called back for too many men on the field...ran across the field to save a TD...came off His man to stop a long pass...saved another long run that could've been a TD.

Not His fault that the front 7 is so badly coached.
 
Sometimes u need to get your *** whupped to make changes. Happened and we got rid of Da Al-i G. Happened and we got rid of Penos and Clover-field. Happened and we’ll probably get rid of Faker and Rumph’d and maybe others. But why does it even get to this point... gotta look higher up. If LCE iz right... and he 99.9% iz (only missed out on calling this game... but that’s not on him cause we should have won today)... then having a coach who doesn’t believe in getting CBs that cover (let alone getting enough to have quality depth). We ain’t winnin’ **** for a loooooong *** time.

Today was a pathetic performance and LCE, u summed it up perfectly.
