He inherited a team with a good amount of young and promising talent that was able to win eight games with essentially no head coach (outplayed a top 20 team in the bowl game too). He also inherited a top 10 recruiting class.

Add in the mediocre conference/disastrous division and the shambolic state of Florida/FSU and you have a Miami program that was set up for short and long term success. At worst you thought this was a 9 or 10 win program moving forward. Yet the quality of play on the field has essentially been that of a .500 ACC team since last year.

A halfway competent HC with a modicum of competitive desire would have Miami comfortably top 10 right now simply based on inheritance + surrounding mediocrity. It is incredible to me that a man with decades of coaching experience at the highest levels of collegiate football can turn such an ideal situation into a complete mess in three short years.

Literally wouldn't expect a W against a single P5 team that's how well of a coRched team we are right now

However, the talent you speak of, is on the defensive side of the LOS and the running back corps and wide out corp and the TE corps. Because it surely isn't on the most IMPORTANT offensive line and what not. Also, the QB talent is raw, immature and inexperienced and all that. Albeit a relatively COMPETENT offensive coordinator, and his assistants, would be able to MANIPULATE the latter pieces into a successful system and what not. Akin to what Manuel has done recently. hUh.
