SIAP, but some really enlightening stuff.

Some tidbits:

1) Alluded to Searles being brutal with the offensive line during his tenure. It sounds like he would tell individual players that they sucked *** pretty frequently.

2) Thinks Donaldson doesn’t give a fvck about the team and is lazy as ****. He sees it during practice and on film. If he had to take a guess, he thinks him and JT were two of the players that were called out during the players-only meeting.

3) Speaking of JT, he heard that he’s a major cancer in the lockeroom.

4) Speaks highly of Gaynor. He makes it seem like he’s the heart and soul of the line with the way he talks about him.

Besides that, he just spent the rest of the time getting you amped for F$U week.

Nothing new.
  • Seales being a hard-*** was discussed before. He's the type you hate, not the type you hate but respect and run through a wall for.
  • Donaldson is lazy. He has the natural ability to play better, even with poor coaching. Seales probably hurt his feelings.
  • JT being a lockerroom distraction is no surprise. Multiple suspensions and attempted transfer.
  • Gaynor does seem like tough guy, blue-collar player, but sadly isn't receiving quality coaching to overcome his limitations.
 
Question... So JT is a cancer so they say and has been suspended multiple times but yet still is on the team and Hightower WHO has been solid and showed flashes but yet barely got any burn and let him walk freely by the staff .... Who fault is it? and who is in charge again?

Boom! Y'all better start looking deeper into stuff man.
 
At this point, you’re a horseshyt 4-4 team playing for nothing with JT and Donaldson. If those guys are really that divisive and lazy and tearing up the locker room, then what does Manure have to gain by continuing to play them? Why keep them around if they’re so toxic?

Romberg is big on hyperbole and shredding players and acting like the teams he played on were perfect. I don’t necessarily trust his commentary, but if it’s true, then Manure is a Manuron for keeping those guys around.

i think manny allows the team to decide if the kid should stay on the team or not (it was up to a team vote to allow JT to come back this year) and reportedly the same with allowing williams to return after he went AWOL

also, BH has been solid? really? he hasnt done much since the first game of his freshman year. hes a talented kid, but in no way shape or form has he been solid here lol
 
There will be several players who either leave or are pushed out the door. Richt isn't an idiot, contrary to what some believe. He got rid of JT for a reason. Manny thought he could salvage the situation. He was wrong. I'm sure he knows that now.

As for Donaldson, he has the talent to be a trench bully but lacks the commitment to get in top physical shape. And he's not draftable right now. Giving Campbell PT at OG was a good move. I like Campbell there because he's better on reach blocks.

Romberg is quick to trash current payers (sometimes rightly so). However, for all the snowflake millennials who are too young to know, I remember him getting his *** kicked in the Fiesta Bowl repeatedly. We were 14 point favorites in the game and had a huge talent advantage. He loves to wax poetically about the glory days but conveniently leaves that part out.

Exactly. That’s why I don’t have much respect for him. His OL that he’s constantly aggrandizing and glorifying is the single reason we lost the Fiasco Bowl. They got their pvssies absolutely stomped out that night. They underachieved for much of that season then **** the sheets in a fecal disaster of epic proportions in the NC game.
 
I gotta take a listen but I don't like what I am hearing if even half of what he is saying is true. And I do believe everything he says about Donaldson. That guy just looks like he wants this whole thing to be over so he can retire from football and move on with his life as a bouncer at a local hood strip club. Just looks to have no passion for football anymore.

Please to don't reply back to me or at me bro if you don't understand what i'm saying that is all. You missed it and it must of went over your head a little. Carry on and Go Canes!

You know how it works Chise', that walk home from school gets a mile longer every year we tell the story. Romberg and everyone from that era have that same aura and maybe they earned it. There shadow will always loom large over this program. Manny knew what he signed up for.
 
Manny should have never brought JT back. Cancer and has done nothing on the field. Think about this: If JT was not brought back that means Osborne would have been fielding punts against Florida. Do we win that game without a fumbled punt inside the 10? Likely so.
Why do people keep saying this not defending JT but if he didn’t play against UF do we pick up the plays he made in that game somewhere else which included a critical 3rd down catch on the scoring drive before halftime to keep that drive alive so that we could get the TD before half and get back into that game. Also you don’t know if any of the other plays would have been open because UF was focusing on him. It’s great you take away the bad play without him but you take away the good ones as well
