On Emmanuel Karnley...

[DMoney]

When Xavier Lucas came into the picture, Miami knew it was oversigning at CB. The expectation was that the player(s) who finished on the losing end of the battle might jump in the Portal. That's what happened here.

Salute to @Memnon, @JayCane20 and others for actually watching Karnley's film and identifying some holes that showed themselves on Greentree. He showed flashes, particularly when carrying vertically, but he was more inconsistent than his peers. Damari Brown's strong showing upon returning mid-Spring was probably the nail in the coffin of Karnley's UM career.

Any idea what the NIL payout was for Karnley's 4 months at UM?

 

[CANESCANES]

Low hanging fruit , horrible eval

 

[hill33]

we gonna use this money on another secondary player?

 

[Dr. Citizen Cane]

Bummer. The PFF guys may have been on to something

 

[F-MarioCristobal]

Just lost the guy that outplayed Tacario Davis last year. ****

 

[Fart Keyhole]

Better to oversign and let the cream rise to the top. Last season's DB play probably took a few years off my life.

 

[TriStarCane]

Between Horton, Patterson, Karnley, and Carr we should be able to afford at least the 3rd best WR from a mountain west team and another “high upside traits guy” from the sunbelt

This **** is exhausting. Feels like yesterday, D-Money was hyping Karnley up as a guy with NFL traits and the guy real scouts thoughts was the best player in the Arizona secondary last year.

Some serious issues with the portal, this being one of them. You shouldn't be allowed to transfer with no penalty multiple times in a calendar year.

 

[CANESCANES]

With all these departures, does this finally free up enough cash to not settle on jags?

I was pretty open that I didn’t watch any Arizona film and had no basis to evaluate him either way.

I was going to judge him on Greentree, and he was clearly behind Lucas, Frederique, O’Connor and Brown on the outside.

Turns out, we didn't have the funds allocated to retain him..

There's honestly not that many non-jags in the portal. I'll share your sentiment if we don't at least make a play for some of the better guys in the portal. But honestly there is not that much out there (Haucey/Pena obviously 2 of them)…Maybe see some more enter in the next few days.

was just coming to ask if i can get my piece of Hecht Propaganda signed by Komrade Kristobal.

@DMoney does this mean Brantley is staying? Or we don’t know yet

More just venting that they need to tighten the portal rules. Karnely made a choice to come here, got paid, and now is leaving since he didn't win a starting job in spring ball. Instead of grinding or putting in work, he ran. Typical of a lot of athletes these days. I'm sure he would have played a lot for us.

I don’t think one has anything to do with the other. Brantley’s best chance to play is inside.

 

[Zbrod95]

If he had all this athletic ability then why not give him a shot at safety??

I think they’d rather just get someone who has played safety. That process is ongoing.

 

[TriStarCane]

Plenty of other people didn’t vouch for the take, including me. It was dismissive and almost insulting how quickly people were dismissed, being accused of only watching highlights on X. **** is comical. There are people on this board that know the game and watch a **** ton of football. I know we are the regime mouthpiece, but this was obvious from the jump. Rant over.

Go look at the original thread and form an opinion about it, but this is a bit of gaslighting on how this played out up front. I think it’s creating frustration

CB Emmanuel Karnley commits to Miami

Miami added length and speed to its secondary with the commitment of Arizona transfer CB Emmanuel “Manny” Karnley. The 6’2 185-pound redshirt freshman from Antioch, CA has been timed as fast as 21 MPH, and secured 16 tackles and 5 PBUs in 369 snaps. Karnley is one of the most coveted...
