Not gone happen
Go Ducks!!!! I’m riding with a real Head Coach not one playing dress up.
Butch lost to ECU which is equivalent. It happens to teams that still win. **** we never had a 16 seed beat a one seed but it happened and then UVA won it all the next season. We got better with the two new hires.Normally I would say you are crazy. I have no belief anymore left in Manny, you just can't lose to FIU and LaTech with the talent on our team under any circumstances, and expect me to have any faith in your head coaching abilities. However, I hope you are right because I would like to see this team fixed as soon as possible.
Excellent reply and i agee! But I do think that AH should be given all authority to fire Manny if he's not getting it done even before the season is over. No more waiting until the end of the season to make the obvious moves. If Manny have to look over hi shoulder with Highsmith over football operations we will know early on if Manny can cut it. If he can't win out the gate we need to cut bate immediately. If the fear of losing your job can't put fire and urgency to win early and often, waiting for the season to end to do it doesn't make sense.I don't make it personal like a lot guys on this board. I'm all about results for my Canes. Despite what a mistake it was to handle Manny the way Flake has, the bottomline is scoreboard. I just want to win. On paper, with Lashlee's very recent and relevant success as an OC, and knowing the D we have coming back, plus punting and (fingers crossed) a transfer PK, we should go 11-1.
Of course, on paper, we "should have gone" 11-1 this year and didn't. We look back on it and realize that Enos was not coming off recent success as a play caller (One of the things that may come into play with Brady-LSU), plus there wasn't enough accountability or sense of urgency. It's amazing how an adrenal shot of the death of your career can be! Manny got that in the last month.
So, I don't expect Manny to win, but I hope he will and if he can get out of his own way, he should grab 10 wins. I don't know what the BOT's will do after next season, but IMO, anything less than 10 wins should be a fireable offense. He burned through his margin this season with 3 game losing streak against teams even Shannon wouldn't have lost to.
I don't want to wait another freaking year for a new coach and then we can start building toward success. Although Manny has given me no confidence at this point, I will be rooting that he learns how to be a leader and get out of the way this offseason and into the season. 10 wins and I'm with him.
He messed up the hire of Enos.....Corrected the mistake. Manny want it as bad as any of us and I know this spread will work with our athletes.....I guarantee we win the Coastal next year!!

Bro, this is f'd up but true. Anytime we fans get delusional, we should say we "lost to FIU, Duke, and LA Tech to finish the year" so that we can tamper our enthusiasm.Manny lost to FIU, Duke, and LA Tech to finish the year. Say that out loud a few times. You shouldn't believe in anything Manny related at this point.
In 99 all those teams were garbage.Are u talking about that 1999 ECU team that beat WVU, Duke, South Carolina, and us??! Lol
No, losing to ECU in 99 is not the same as becoming the 1st P5 team to lose to FIU.
Who ever wins the NC will have 15 wins this year. If that's LSU, they will have played and beaten the following teams:
UF
Auburn
Bama
Georgia
Clemson
That's the barometer.
LMAO at ANYONE thinking that a 10 win season, at MIAMI, (with our projected 2020 schedule), would amount to a "successful" season. That's a 66% score on a NC level. Trash.
We need to get this loser mentality away from our program. Fugg Manure. UNC. GT. FIU. DUKE. LT. Never forget.

There were only about a dozen P5 teams to reach 10 wins this year. By any measurable that’s a good season for us.
Your winning percentage is skewed because aren’t going to play 15 games.
Dude, The only reason we wouldn’t play 15 games is if we didn’t make it to the national championship. Without the playoffs we would be playing 13 games which would include the ACC championship. With our schedule, we should have one loss during the regular season at the most, and one loss against Clemson in the ACC championship.
NCs are the standard. Not P5 schools.

GTFOH. All you're doing is embarrassing yourself. Just stop. The issue is you keep watching those dusty *** 30 for 30's which is severely distorting your perception of reality. Just because the university caught lightning in a bottle back in the 80's doesn't mean one should expect that to happen again in the yr 2020. After surveying the current CFB landscape real/true fans would naturally temper their expectations. While conversely fake/fair weather fans would insist on clinging to unrealistic expectations by spreading negativity & toxicity.
