don't forget to add some of the newer terms, like "maude". Please and thank you.

As in Maude Lebowski?!
 
We had DL depth issues from the outset.
We have 13 DL and 8 of them are freshmens.
Blissett was not practicing last week when I eves-dropped on practice.
Holley hasn't been heard from and I suspect is not practicing either.
Q. Williams and Roberts played DT in the scrimmage.

As best I can tell, this is the current depth chart:

DE Roche, Phillips, Harvey, Chantz, Cam

DT Ford, Silvera, Miller, Hunte, Roberts, Q. Williams

How dare you leave out Samson Doyo...such disrespect
 
What IV heard

1. Offense moving at warp speed
2. Deriq is a special player
3. Rooster making a big push for RB1
4. WR just okay
5. DT nicked up causing some gash plays up the middle.

I know this post will be negged because you're not allowed to say anything on this site other than Miami has 85 kids who will all split the Heisman, but this is not a Miami caliber group of WRs right now.

Hopefully the freshmen can change that. I think Payton will show he is in that class. But overall, it's not a great group.

I went back and listened to the interview. Supposedly Roche, Ford, Nesta and Holley were all held out last scrimmage, but all were small nicks from what Diaz said
And, that's why the freshmen RB duo had a field day. Also, this yields to damper the excitement level on the OL.

We can also hope that a better playbook and quarterback will help.

No doubt. I'm not saying they all suck, I'm not saying they can't make plays, I'm not saying the offense won't be good.

None of that.

It's just not a collective group that scares anyone yet. Hopefully by the end of the year we can get some combination of better coaching, overall improvement and influx of some of the younger kids. But snap 1, were it to take place today, if we were to come out in 11 would most likely be Harley, Wiggins, and Pope. When you've churned out the WRs we have here over the history of this program, that just doesn't stack up.

So when someone posts thoughts from a scrimmage and they include, "WR just okay", I believe it. It's been a concern of mine. I mean, I love KJ, but we got a kid in here from Buffalo and he was the best WR on the roster the day he walked in the door. That shouldn't happen at Miami.

I hope you didn't think I took your comment as bashing them, because I didn't. Nobody will confuse them for any of our championship receiver groups, but It's still my hope that at least one of those three really flashes this year.
