My Post Game Recap

We having fun yet? Biggest game this program has had in years coming up. No we’re not favored. No we’re not supposed to win but man go out, play hard, play sound, leave it out there, don’t back down, and let’s see where the chips fall.
I don’t want to jinx it man but I’m really starting to believe we can contend for the playoffs and on any given day beat anybody. The scary part is, this is only the tip of the iceberg. With basically no off season, this team hasn’t even nearly reached its potential. If things keep going this way by the time The last game against UNC comes around will be looking at championship contending Canes. **** we might be there already but I don’t want to jinx it. Just so excited I can’t help it. Unlike 2017 regardless of how fun that run was, you could see it was smoke and mirrors as every good break fell our way. now there’s no doubt after games that were not only the better team, it’s not even close, we’re a lot better!

Since not even their fans are claiming FSU right now, I thought you’d go with something like this...

Just think - we’re still leaving Real Estate out there on offense, and haven’t come close to playing a great game on defense.

Also - imagine this team if Banda, Garvin, JT, and GR would have stayed. With KING as the leader.

Credit to Manny for his off season moves. Huge.

As I said last year and all off season, Bubba Bolden is an absolute difference maker at Safety and should be roaming free. Put 26 in the box and let Bubba roam. He and 15 are the two best players on defense and both are west coast transfers.

Great freaking win!
 
Keyshawn Smith would've had a TD on that Deep ball in the 4th quarter if Perry put more velocity on the ball, he had too much air under it & hung it out for too long, but Keyshawn had his man beat by a full step.


Of course, Keyshawn could have not been an idiot and used both hands to catch the ball. Then it would have at least been a huge gain. Some kind of modern affliction whereby players seem to totally forget that they have two hands. See UF´s Shawn Davis, he absolutely loves doing this.

PS: nice to see that the athleticism and explosiveness evident on Keyshawn´s HS highlights translates to the college level. I was low key worried about his comp, but he looked like a major talent out there last night.

PPS: we need to get the whole **** team on Redding´s strength and conditioning program. Freshman LMAO. He´s gonna be rocked up like Dre by the time he´s a junior.

Gonna ride this thread for some of my personal favorite moments:

1) Ryan Ragone with the sack to end the game.

2) DJ Ivey going toe to toe with T. Terry, getting in his head and taking his a$$ to the sideline.

3) Dontae Lucas meltdown. Like the dude who hangs out at the bar 30 minutes after close time being told to go home

4) King not smiling after the game or getting hype. The guy has his eyes on a bigger prize....reason we’ll be in it 2 weeks from now.

5) Lashlee and N’Kosi throwing for the final TD. Alpha move

6) Tyler Van Dyke, first play as a Cane? Hope he’s absorbing everything from King from off field preparation to on field demeanor
Love them all, but 4 and 5 are huge. Big props to coaches for knowing the importance of blowing them out. Going for it on the 4ths when we had the game sealed. So ******* huge!!!! Also King is the leader we've been needing. So ******* mature, and nothing phases him. Will go down in our history as an all time great. Agree with the guys on the board that say “MOAR TEXAS QBS”!!!!!!

@Liberty City El I thought we called a much better game on defense tonight. I could be wrong but it looked to me like we kept it relatively vanilla and sound UNTIL IT WAS THE RIGHT TIME to gamble. We weren't just out there rolling the dice every play. I saw tighter coverage most of the night. On Bolden's INT we were in Cover-1 with Bolden at the single-high Safety spot, which was nice for a change. I don't recall seeing the blitzes from 18 yards away either.

I gotta watch the condensed version of the game but it almost seemed like they re-evaluated **** after the first couple games and approached tonight with less gimmicks.
I felt the same way so that's actually the biggest takeaway for me this game. I was concerned we were not going to adjust and the d would.be a liability after finally solving the offense. The adjustments are making me feel way better.

If Rousseau & JT4 would've come back this year, I would have us beating Clemson & going undefeated.

Not even joking or exaggerating. Having Rousseau & Phillips on the field at the same time would've been the scariest & most unstoppable pass rush in all of college football hands down.

JT4 would've thrived in Lashlee's offense out of the Slot in place of Harley & people would say "well JT woulda been a problem", I don't think he would have. He was a malcontent because we didn't utilize him properly & didn't get him the ball enough, there is nothing stupider than having a dynamic weapon like Jeff Thomas & playing him in a Pro style bro! Offense. He's the quintessential Spread Slot WR Speed threat that can break a game open & force Defenses to roll safeties to his side, a true matchup nightmare when used correctly.

Under King's leadership & in Lashlee's offense where he would've been a focal point, JT4 would've fell in line & bought into everything we're doing.

Offense:

D'Eriq King - 29/40 267yds 2TD's at 72.5%cmp & 8att 65yds
Cam'ron Harris - 12att 43yds 2TD's & 4rec 20yds
Brevin Jordan - 5rec 41yds & 1TD
Mike Harley - 7rec 53yds
Mark Pope - 5rec 60yds
Dee Wiggins - 3rec 54yds 1TD
Don Chaney Jr - 7att 35yds & 1rec 15yds
Jaylan Knighton - 5att 28yds & 3rec 35yds
Robert Burns - 4att 28yds
Michael Redding III - 2rec 13yds 1TD
Will Mallory - 1rec 10yds

Gained 517yds of total offense (317yds passing & 200yds rushing), ran a total of 85 plays, had 33 first downs, 11-18 on 3rd down & 3-4 on 4th down at 6.1 ypp with 31:55 time of possession.

First drive was surgical; King was patient in the pocket & routinely found the open man, did a great job with his eyes on the TD looked off the Safety to open up the middle of the field & hit Brevin in stride for a TD. Terrific play calling by Lashlee.

King is the best QB we've had since Torretta, yeah I said it!

2 4th down conversions in the 1st quarter & both lead to TD's on the following play.

Great job exploiting FSU's slow secondary, that Post route to the inside across the field to Wiggins was a perfectly executed play call, Mallory did a good job blocking his man allowing King enough time to lay it out for Wiggins to get under it in stride. Great X's & O's & well designed play call by Lashlee. Brownlee got beat bad on that play, he looked like he was jogging the entire route, reminded of the same Post route Wiggins beat Stanford Samuels Jr on last year lol.




Killa Cam had some tough runs gaining first downs & extending drives, did a good job catching the ball out of the backfield as well. Our best RB IMO.

Congrats to Don Chaney Jr on his first 2TD's as a Hurricane, he had a really nice tough run late in the 3rd quarter & had a very good 4th down conversion.



Knighton has such quick feet he hits the hole & goes, no wasted steps. But he's gotta protect the football, we had a 1st down on that 4th & 2 in the 3rd quarter, all he had to do was fall forward.

Brevin is monster, 1st round TE. Everybody's gonna slobber over Kyle Armpitts but UF TE's don't have a great track record in the NFL, I mean Jordan Reed has lost chromosomes with all the concussions he's had & then there's that whole *** Murderer thing, but never mind that...




Mike Harley played a much better game, his bread & butter is short routes, quick Outs, Screens, Hitches & Curls, get him the ball early in short area situations, he cannot make deep route catches & doesn't have the focus to make 2nd level catches consistently, another 3 drop game.

OL has done a really good job in the first 3 games, they've improved in every area from run block & are astronomically better in pass blocking. John Campbell, Jarrid Williams, Corey Gaynor have been great, Scaife is still struggling with procedural penalties, he's had one in every game, but looks solid in pass blocking.

Really love the drive in the 2nd quarter where we essentially just pounded the rock down their throat with King, Cam & Knighton, that kind of play calling is designed to break the will of the Defense, it's all about just letting them know that no matter how hard they try, they simply can't stop us.

FSU's Defense was playing dirty with multiple facemask penalties, that was also a dirty play by Renardo Green on that facemask in the end zone. You could tell that they were all frustration penalties where they simply ****ed at how we were embarrassing them.

Keyshawn Smith would've had a TD on that Deep ball in the 4th quarter if Perry put more velocity on the ball, he had too much air under it & hung it out for too long, but Keyshawn had his man beat by a full step. Get him & Redding more reps please.

We were also 5/6 on Red Zone efficiency, that's one of the huge differences from this year to last year, under Enox we were 121st in Red zone scoring, this season we're going full throttle & scoring like a Big XII team in the Red Zone, thank God for Lashlee!

Defense:

Bubba Bolden - 4tcks 2TFL's, 1INT, 1 sack & 1PBU
Amari Carter - 6tcks
Jaelan Phillips - 3tcks 1TFL & 1INT
Jared Harrison-Hunte - 1TFL & 1 sack
Quincy Roche - 3tcks 2TFL's & 1 sack
Nesta Silvera - 3tcks 2TFL's & 1 sack
Gilbert Frierson - 3tcks 2TFL's & 1PBU
Zach McCloud - 4tcks 1TFL & 1 sack
DJ Ivey - 4tcks
Al Blades Jr - 1tcks & 1INT
Bradley Jennings Jr - 1tck & 1TFL
Te'Cory Couch - 2tcks
Brian Balom - 3tcks
Jalen Harrell - 1tck
Tirek Austin-Cave - 1tck & 1TFl

Had a suffocating first half with 9TFL's 5 sacks 1 INT & 1 FF in the 1st half. Finished with 14TFL's, 6 sacks & 3INT's total for the game & held FSU to just 179yds passing.

We did a good job adjusting after the first drive, we figured out how to indicate to our guys to read the keys on the jet sweep. Didn't like the style Defense we played to start the beginning of the 2nd half, needed to be more aggressive & get off the field, Defense got too comfortable in the 3rd quarter & let FSU get too many secondary level plays running the ball & off screens. But otherwise, had a strong performance & dominated the entire game & got the job done.

Bubba Bolden was flying all over the field, played another terrific game, has elevated himself to easily our best Safety, this kid is such a dynamic playmaker, he's a pure attack dog on the backend, constantly around the ball, high football IQ & is always a threat for opposing offenses.




Sucks that Phillips got kicked out of the game, the first unsportsmanlike was a bogus call, it seems the refs have a quota to just fck with our Defense as much as possible, if it's not Amari Carter, it's Phillips or someone else.

Very good coverage by Frierson on 3rd down & 3 in the 2nd quarter. He did a great job taking inside leverage & not allowing the WR to square his shoulders around to box him out. Also made a very good open field TFL on 3rd down, should've been a forced 4th down but Ivey & Terry got called for offsetting penalties. Had another good TFL on the TE screen on 2nd & goal with 6min left in the 3rd quarter. He really stepped up his play these last 2 weeks & is developing into a dynamic Hybrid that can both cover WR's down the field & come up in run support & impact the game.

Great awareness by Jade Silvera sniffing out the double reverse & immediately baring down on Travis. Did a great job in pursuit on the sack on Blackman. Quincy Roche got blatantly held again & they didn't call it. Jade, JHH, Roche & Phillips are our best DLineman, they impact the game at such a crazy rate. High pressures & are disruptive in the passing game.

Our CB's don't know how to fight off blocks at all lol.

Al Jr with the nice catch off the deflected ball by Bolden. His coverage also contributed to the INT Bolden got he essentially rerouted & slowed his man down enough for Bolden to read the QB's eyes & get over in time to get the pick.

LB's played well for the most part, McCloud was great on the Blitz, Jennings had a real nice TFL stuff in the 3rd quarter. Obviously it was just 3rd team Defense but really liked how TAC looked, would love to see him get some 2nd team reps at least.

Jalen Harrell can play as a TF, physically he's one of the bigger Safeties we have, really hope some of these guys get a shot down the line.

Special Teams, Borregales was a God-send, great pickup this offseason. Pope is not a dynamic return man, I'd like to see Restrepo or Keyshawn Smith at PR.


Overall, AMAZING TEAM WIN! I told yall scary *** we were gonna bury them at Hard Rock this year, Blackman is a horrendous QB & they have no weapons on offense aside from Jordan Travis. Mike Norvell literally went to a Trailerhasse hospice to find a bed ridden elderly person with Covid to cough directly in his face in order to avoid having to coach this game, he licked every doorknob & wiped his face with people's sneeze rags out of the garbage, he did NOT want to be on the sidelines for this desecration!

LMAO @ any South FL recruit that ever signs with FSU over Miami, there's something seriously wrong with them & their family if they willingly go play for Trailerhasse. We beat the Noles down by 42 ****** points! This was an asswhoopin of epic proportions! The largest margin of victory vs FSU in the rivalry history!

We are new team with Lashlee & King, we run a high powered offense that is unrelenting & will absolutely buzzsaw Defenses if they're not prepared for the pace & multi formations we use to create mismatches in the secondary. THIS IS WTF WE BEEN TALKING ABOUT FOR YEARS ABOUT WHY WE NEEDED TO GO SPREAD! Death to the Pro Style Bro!

Miami is among the top 3 best teams in the ACC, don't care who don't agree, aside from Clemson there's not a team in this conference that should strike fear in our hearts. We keep getting better every week & if our Defense can continue to cause havoc & create pressure, we're going to be a making a serious run this year, one game at time as the Coriolis Force of this Hurricane continues to build...

It's All About The U 🙌🏾!!!

Things are coming along nicely Gfather. Most of the players interviewed mentioned we still can improve. That **** blows my mind. Im happy as F' with the way they're playing. Now think that the team feels they can get better? I feel like im in the back of vip with four naked fine *** hoes all over me.
It's great to be a Miami Hurricane...

Would have LOVED to see JT4 getting coached by Lashlee. Lashlee would have looked at him and saw straight GOLD. And like you said, with Kings leadership over Williams immaturity would have been a career saver for JT4! ****.... what could of been
