Go ahead, make your points again about the lack of talent.

UM might be a top 5 NFL rich team in the country this past season, based on whats going on at these NFL evaluations/camps.

What's going on right now is officially slaying the one fallacious argument UM/Blake/Golden/Slurpers have been making: that the cloud prevented us from landing talent.

It is now officially INARGUABLE, not that those with common sense couldnt tell before. Every comment/email/sign should now be directed towards the death of their last straw argument.

So go ahead, come here and tell us all again how we don't have the talent to compete in the ACC, when we had the talent to compete for the ******* playoffs.

I love when people start talking about 'cloud' issues as if they could make the team bad in any other way besides recruiting. "Don't you get how HARD it is to recruit under those conditions?! Of course we're not winning!"

Why, yes. I get how hard it was, so I give Al credit for hauling in all these guys who are going to go pro, and likely during early rounds, with that over his head.

So, umm, where's my wins? How did the cloud keep him from doing something with all that talent? Is he not a walk-and-chew-gum-at-the-same-time kinda guy? The whole roster has to be stacked three deep before he can turn to the game-planning part of his job?
 
The guys are killing it so far this offseason. From former nfl safety Matt Bowen:

"I can’t figure out how Miami went 6-7 on the season…these former Hurricanes came to play this week in Mobile. A lot of speed. And a lot of talent."

i swear man, this hurts. Just because of the what ifs
 
Amateur coaching
Scheme that doesn't fit the talent
True Freshman quarterback
Defensive tackle play

That's some reasons how you go 6-7 with NFL talent players on the roster
 
This thread won't be that long. Most here claimed golden was an excellent recruiter. How can u say he was an excellent recruiter but say miami has no talent?

Because just like Golden supporters statements are only relevant if they support their current argument regardless if they contradict a statement from a different argument.

Ex. prior years yards don't matter, only points, wins and losses. This year we were top 15 in yards, but just didn't get the wins.

Also, they support the great recruiter argument with the players are young (even 4 years later, the players are still young). Apparently the players are always young so next year when they have more experience we will win (ignoring the fact that the best players will be gone next year).

Obviously we have talent . . . . we always have talent.

Let's not, with Mr. Bowen, confuse 4 or 5 guys killing it in all-star games with "we are loaded at every position with NFL talent". Kaaya might be an NFL talent - sometimes he played like it this year, some times he didn't. Duke has that talent, when he's not putting the ball on the ground in crucial situations. We certainly didn't get NFL play calling from Coley.

Either way, we had enough talent to be better than 6-7.

Enough talent to win the coastal going away.

What would Duke's W-L record would look like if David Cutclilffe had a roster like Miami's? Who knows? But it's reasonable to assume that he'd have done better than the 9-4 he got Duke to, with a roster that is obviously not as good. The same could be said for Paul Johnson's 11-3 GT team, and probably Frank Beamer's sad VT squad.

I don't have to make the claim that Al is the worst football coach ever (though it's certainly possible); it should suffice that he is AT BEST the fourth-best coach in his own division. (We'll have to see how Narduzzi does as a HC before we know exactly where things stand.) He had the best talent in the ACC Coastal, and the worst record.

Any time anybody talks about how Al is still rebuilding needs to address that reality, or they can't be taken seriously. Best talent. Worst record.
 
My argument with that idiot, niner, before the season was that we don't have enough talent to overcome the incompetent leadership.

6-7. I was right.

I am not ready to say that we wont have 5 guys selected in the first 80 picks. (Flowers, Dorsett, Walford, Perryman, Duke..and in this order) And 7 in the first 100. (adding in Gunter and Chick)

Would love to see where that stacks against the elite teams. Maybe FSU will beat us by not many more teams.

**** shame. Smh.
 
The season was over on the first drive of the L'ville game.

3rd and long, we rush 3 fatasses and drop everyone else 35 yards back into soft zone coverage.

Also running into 9 man fronts ALL GAME without making an adjustment.

**** you Al Golden. **** your entire family I hope they all get torn to pieces by wild dogs.
 
Al Golden is not a good football coach. We had/have talent and it's being wasted. Doesn't everyone already know that?

Why are people scrambling around for "more proof"? At this point it's like saying Adolf Hitler didn't recycle.
