You sound oddly familiar. Were you attacked by a bear or were you infected by the swine flu? Can you say the word ārubbish?āAnd now 14-1 that's what
don't agree with Mallory can't block.Coming into this game I said ten wins is what I expected , leaving the game nothing has changed. We went up in weight class and got smacked back down to where we came from. Weāre a light heavy weight that skipped cruiser weight . heavy weight and jumped to super heavyweight , then received the realistic result, knocked out with ease.
We faced a machine that has far better talent , coaching and culture. Itās a professional ran college program thats playing on a different level than anyone else. From the amount of money they spend in their program on down. That being said hereās what I saw.
Miami once again came out overwhelmed in a big moment , the staff and players couldn't handle the pressure of all the bright lights.
The tackling continues to be atrocious, just like last year we look lost in space.
We were very aggressive and brought 5, 6 and even seven guys but the blitzes are slow developing , obvious to everyone in the building because of zero disguise. Their qb was eating the pressures alive. They knew all the answers in pre snap.
Even though we ran more man we still didnāt allow our cbās to use their hands like the talk had been, there was plenty of free release which will always put guys like Ivey at a disadvantage. Ts and Couch are easily the best cbās.
Our front seven looked like a pac 12 defense versus Bama. We wonāt be a big boy program until we get difference makers in the trenches.
Play calling on offense was atrocious early , another game where Lashlee came up small and coached scared. The slow developing runs leave me scratching my head, at this point heās pretty good. Nothing more.
Going into this season I said the ol and deās were my concern, well going forward I think the ol will be ok. Theyāre definitely better than last year. After Oluwaseun entered the game it was night and day difference, we had lanes and made pretty good pockets from the second quarter on. As for as Scaife goes , itās over. Heās a backup and nothing more. As a whole the ol held up better than it did against some acc schools last year. I take that as one of the few positives.
I posted in spring Don was special, heād ran away with the gig then he got hurt. He showed yesterday heās a difference maker , heās explosive and runs violent. Cam is what he is , a rotational guy, not a horse. I want to see more of Don ( we will), Rooster ( after suspension ) and eventually Brown. Cam has no lateral movement and goes down way too easy.
Wrās were another positive , when given a chance they made plays , they were constantly running free in the secondary and we just couldnāt make them pay. Either the pocket broke down or king left early.
I love king but heās limited as a passer. He still continues to cause some sacks scrambling , even if thereās a good pocket around him. He still has some of the same issues as last year.
Mallory still canāt block.
As for manny , weāre going into year three and thatās when I start coming to my full decision. What I know so far ? We show up flat most weeks, we donāt seem to be developing our recruits ,only the transfers seem to improve . We lack fundamentals and look like a badly coached team without discipline. At this point thereās no arguing this.
As I said earlier I still expect a positive season and this is a good team. Thereās nobody weāll face in the same stratosphere as Bama going forward , even Clemson. I saw enough of the o to think itāll score a lot of points most weeks but will have issues against teams with better talent. So minus Clemson weāll have the advantage on saturdays. If we canāt hit ten wins with this schedule there better be no extensions . Thatāll make next year do or die.
The next few weeks will shed a good light on where manny and the program is headed , if we show up flat and uninspired like previous years after a loss then itās safe to say weāre not improving , itās just more of the same. If itās the opposite then maybe things are going in the positive direction.
I try to be level headed and not too emotional on this stuff , thatās why Iām not taking too much from a game that nobody expected us to win, we were a 3 td dog. But Iām still not happy with things that continue to show up on Saturdays , issues we canāt seem to fix.
Now Iāll let everyone get back to losing their minds and talking Mannys replacement.
Yeah, this is the thing. Weāve known what we were up against and we showed up with a run run pass game plan on O and guys playing way off the line at CB. Everything is easily identifiable and potentially fixable with a willing leader but we donāt have that leader. No way around it. No one in their right mind could think that the game plan was sound or logical. We did the same bad shĆ®t weāve done with repeated failures. I didnāt expect to win but I expected to see a sound game plan. Without name calling, what we witnessed is the coaching equivalence of malpractice.Funny you say list these things, because this is the same exact list of things weāve been waiting for Manny to fix for the last 3 ******* years! So when you say itās all easily fixable, remember the DOLT we have coaching our team. Smh
Someone on social media posted a pic saying that for several minutes, no one coaches the players. Everyone was left on the bench. I dont get it. Games not over.Remember Dabo jumping off in the olās *** when we played them? We were down like 3-4 tdās. Manny tried to do that to Hill a couple years ago and dude straight ghosted him. Lol.

peep the last play of the video great block by Mallory on this play..

excellent points on Diaz, I would also add that we need a complete overhaul of S&C program. went to game with a buddy Alabama grad his comment you guys "Miami" aren't very physical. we lack explosive strength and it shows if we play a top notch outfit...... have not had explosive strength since Butch Davis... group leftI saw that Miami loves to work a lot out of 10 personnel. Even with Mallory in the game, he looked more like a receiver. If you want to play spread out of formations that really aren't going to let your offense play physically at the LOS, it's going to be hard to run the ball and show a balance that the defense will respect. When speed and space aren't working that's really all she wrote.
We've run a lot of 10 with Tua and it almost got our QB killed numerous times. It destroyed our downhill running and physicality. I just hate it as a base formation for the offense. It also messes with the defense, in that in practice that is what they line up against every day and that is what develops their muscle memory. Tight ends that can block and catch are getting more valuable in these spreads than gold. They are wonderful mismatches.
DJ always reminded me of Big Ben in his stature. Play style, not sure.Yes, agreed, but the UGA QB is a statue. And to be accurate DJ at Clemson is not a dynamic mobile QB at 6-6 250 lbs. He can move around but heās not a running threat.
Young is a passer first, as was Tua, and no one said heās Mike Vick. Heās more mobile than UGAs QB, and I think gives an edge to Bama in that potential matchup.
need an overhaul that includes Blake James and some new faces on BOT as well as new president who understands the importance of college athletics to school....... we showed up flat and unprepared and played sloppy football that's on DiazThere is no difference between game 1 vs UF in 2019 and game 25 vs Bama in 2021. We look and do the exact same ****. Different offensive staff. Different defensive staff. Multiple prime transfers. Top 15 recruiting classes. Nothing. Has. Changed. Heās not the guy now or if we win against a ****** conference. I donāt care that Bama is a semi pro team. I though we would lose by 5 TDs. But we still look the same. And thatās the issue
retire the TO chain..... we looked like a bunch of -ss hats trailing by 27 and getting crushed and we bring out the chainWe are a laughingstock. We play with jewelry down 27-0 and look like a little kid whoās mommy told him no video games for a month when they take it away.
Iām going off the totality , our highly rated guys donāt make big jumps. Development as a whole has been meh at best.
Our S&C program is in the dark ages, we get bullied every time we play a top program. we lack explosive strength periodThis, I still don't get why. We have IMO the best position coaches we have had in a while. They have all for the most part produce talent elsewhere, and have done it in D1 schools, or pro level.
Can it be our S&C coach? I know you mentioned Huff can get his weight up for whatever reason. That makes no sense to me.
We lost the game but idk about lunch money taken etc. If it were 70-3 (which Bama does to SEC teams at times) then I'd have to agree with you. We drove down the field a couple times with inferior talent and just didn't punch it in....Saban didn't let off the gas, our kids just found their footing. Bama rushed for like 35 carries n 150 yards...HUGE win for us considering we gave up 500 rushing yards just a few months ago with the same players minus a 1st round and 5th round DE. And yes we got torched by Bamas passing game, however it can't be lost that Bolden goes out in the 1st Q and we have to insert our young guy Kinchens in there...Honestly, I can live with the fact we lost, Bama is just that **** good.
What bothers me is we got beaten up, lunch money stolen, and shorts yanked over our heads by the school bully on a big stage again.
And thatās why manny has officially lost the fan base because he is incapable of fixing the same mistakes this team has made over and over again for the past 3 years. Thatās coaching plain and simple and you either have it or you donāt. And he doesnāt! Heād be a good promotions man, a hype man for a company but not a football coach because off season championships mean about as much as the lint in my pocket in this game. Itās just a matter of time now with him and according to @Cribby blake James too thank god! With that cleansing and maybe the people in the BOT that care about building a winning program taking control away from the ones that think status quo is just fine, then their is hope. There is hope of Alonzo highsmith, theirs hope of a guy like bill clarke or Gary Patterson since TCU will be group of five again in the future.Yeah, this is the thing. Weāve known what we were up against and we showed up with a run run pass game plan on O and guys playing way off the line at CB. Everything is easily identifiable and potentially fixable with a willing leader but we donāt have that leader. No way around it.

Iāve been saying for a couple years the coach and the ad is just the symptom of the disease.
Fkn social media. Smdh. I give 2 fks about social media.Someone on social media posted a pic saying that for several minutes, no one coaches the players. Everyone was left on the bench. I dont get it. Games not over.
