Oline blows

Not only could we not pass block. We couldn’t even run against the CMU front. Terrible game and real cause for concern. Manny better start pulling it together or we could lose all our ACC games. We’re that bad. Every game will be a dog fight.

He wasn't and isn't ready. It's more likely he'll never be a quality LT than it is he will become one. He was a 2 star nobody and his confidence has to be crushed after all this. It was beyond idiotic to play those guys against UF. Scaife and Donaldson at LT and RT...UM is 4-0 right now.

Donaldson can't even hold it down at G, he'd get crushed at T.

You sound retarded. Zion being a 2 star is not the reason why he's experiencing growing pains. Even 4 & 5 star O-linemen struggle in their true freshmen yrs. How is Donaldson going to be the RT when he got benched last yr for a true freshmen in Scaife? Not only that but he lacks the lateral quickness to even play G effectively. When you recruit O-linemen as poorly as MIA has for the past 15+ yrs this level of ineptitude is to be expected, and cannot be quickly addressed simply by hiring a new O-line coach. Also..stop sucking on Reed's dyck-he's trash. He's not even better than the true freshmen Clark

We will never get Wisconsin OL. It’s just not happening. What we should do is play to South Florida’s strengths: speed and athleticism. Spread defenses out, let our OL basically do the bare minimum, and we’ll score 40+ a game.

Blows my mind that we just....don't....get...this.

You don’t know anything about these players obviously. Donaldson played much better at RT as a true frosh than he’s playing right now. Donaldson what light years ahead of Nelson then. It’s the coaching and what they are being asked to do that’s wrong. And no Fing way Clark is a better prospect than Reed. Check out the offer list and try again. Actually don’t because you’ll just strike out again.

It’s the way they are being asked to play. He didn’t look like this as an overweight true frosh. None of them are playing well. I’m sorry but I refuse to believe that every scouting service and all these top schools were all wrong on all these highly rated OLs on our roster. It ain’t the guys.

LMAO..played much better at RT as a true freshmen. He started 10 games at G dummy!! What kind of moron blames Navaughn's fat, mushy *** on the coaches??? He would be trash regardless of where he plays..not just @ MIA. You're delusional if you think changing schemes is magically going to turn his fat, mushy *** into an all-conference level player. Wisconsin's & BC's 2 star linemen are light yrs ahead of him as a football player. LIGHT YRS AHEAD. Which is why comparing recruiting rankings, stars, and offer lists, is not the proper way to judge who's a better prospect. Doing so only makes you look like a dumbass

This. Knowing Florida was week 0 should have made this decision easier and MAYBE later in the season sneak the young kids in...

Completely reckless to throw those boys to the wolves to ultimately fail

Yup, just like Scaife last season. But the counter to that is Zion had been holding the LT position down since the start of fall camp. So why not throw him out there?

RG not RT. That was my mistake. Regardless...You proved my point. A guy that started 10 games as a true frosh looks worse now as junior.
Clark was a lowly recruited 3 star whom the previous staff offered as a center. He’s starting at OG over upperclassmen and more talented guys like Reed. It makes no sense. The OL coach wants smaller guys and it isn’t our game. Period. Don looks worse because he’s being asked to do things he shouldn’t be doing. Even Scaife looks mediocre. Wake up.
You believe BC has more talent and that’s the reason? Gimme a break.
 
Yeah the OL talent isn’t the greatest but at some point you have to look at the offensive scheme no? I have a hard time believing Gundy and Leach have better OL recruits than us yet their offense is humming year in and year out.

We all wanted the spread for a reason.
