Exactly. Like they wasn’t just complaining about Sam brown all season. Brown had 500 yards on 36 catches. If he would’ve been at Syracuse he would’ve been a all american

Special folks here.

Are the 2025 Miami Hurricanes better with Trebor Pena on the roster? Yes. The ******* answer is yes. It’s not “well, he got a lot of volume” or “yeah but Syracuse threw the ball a lot”.

It’s ******* yes. Why do yall have to make everything so complicated? How much better? I don’t know. But better. Are yall not interested in being a better football team? I genuinely don’t get it.

Fans act like it’s their money being spent. It’s ridiculous.

Just out of curiosity, how much do you consider WR1 money? That’s extremely vague lol

I don’t know what they are getting paid but my thing is I wouldn’t give that to pena and obviously the staff agrees

No different than acting like if a fan say they would take a guy or not means some. It’s all opinion that’s what the board is for. Money is a factor so it needs to be part of the discussion

Exactly, you have no clue lol. Just because he may come in and be our top WR, doesn’t mean he’s getting anywhere close to the money of other WR1s like singleton, Noah Thomas, or even what X got for that matter

Ray Ray and Brashard aren’t natural wrs that’s why they struggled. Ray Ray was a rb in hs. They just put the ball in Brashard hands. Toney is a real wr that actually played it at a elite level in hs unlike those guys. If these dudes are as good as you think and you truly think they are ready then you ride with them.

That’s what the big programs do. Clemson depended on 2 true freshmen last year and they produced. Osu plays their young guys. Those teams play their young guys if they show it.

Just like pena came out of no where why can’t our guys do the same? At some point these evals gone have to start to be questioned

They’ve been questioned homie. We consistently bring in as many transfers as anyone in addition to our “elite” classes. That’s where we differ. You want to “let the you guys develop”. I don’t give a **** if they rot on the bench for 6 years. I just want to field the best team every August and idgaf where they come from or who gets their feelings hurt. Is Pena better than Toney and would you trust him more against ND? The answer is yes for me. But all moot, we will see soon enough. It’s their bed so they will live with the results and sleep in it either way.

Dude what are you talking about? I clearly said I didn’t know what they got just like you don’t but I wouldnt give him that money tf
 
I’m not too familiar with the new settlement that is being negotiated but is there something in there that says if you bring in a portal player and the younger guy outplays him that you are still required to play the portal player over them? Are coaches still allowed to give more run to those who earn it on the field?

I don’t think you quite understand the Pena has all the leverage in this scenario. At the moment, he’s the number one option in the portal, and he wouldn’t instantly be our WR1. We’re desperate for a proven WR. Whether you like it or not, we’ll probably have to pay him more than the staff would like. That obviously changes if someone big enters within the next two days, which the odds of that are shrinking by the second

who is desperate? The fan base on this board or the actual coaches?

Okay then what’s the problem with adding him?

HE’S A VOLUME RECEIVER WHO WILL NOT GET THE SAME VOLUME HERE! If he has a season similar to EVERY other season he’s had in his career (minus last yr) then what? What will you say then?? Cause I believe we can get 30-40 catches and 400yrds from a player that’s already on roster. &that’s the type of player he’s shown to be. Cool.

I am not against bringing in another WR, I’m just stating the facts with buddy vs how I see our offense playing this season. Hint: it ain’t dropping back 50/60 times a game either.

Why couldn't he get the same volume here? Beck is better than McCord, Dawson is better than Nixon, and our Oline is significantly better than theirs.

He's the number one WR in the portal at the moment, and would instantly be one of the best on our roster. Also, have you took a look at our roster? We only have only 7 scholarships (edit: 8 now with Carr coming back) Wrs lol. If we have 1-2 injuries, we're screwed

Maybe desperate is a strong word, but just from a numbers standpoint we have to add guys to that room. I was just saying that Pena value is higher than he would've been if he entered in the winter, which is due to the limited options in the portal at the moment

Buddy dropped back for nearly 150 more passing attempts than in Becks 23’ season. And they played less games! Cmon dawg! (in my Boosie voice). That is NOT happening here with the current staff nor would I want those type of splits as the roster is currently constructed.

Also, I gave buddy (Pena) more credit than deserved..2/300 yards and a few catches is more than possible with current WRs. That was comparable to his best season before last yr. And that’s the player we will be getting. We always need more bodies till they perform..like..chalk outlines.

How about you look at our passing attempts with Cam Ward, and even 2023 lol. It wasn’t as much as Syracuse, I will give you that. However, Beck is going to air it out way more in this offense than at Georgia. Mike Bobo Schemes is significantly different than Dawsons and Nixons. Nice try though 😂😂😂

So is this kid committing today? I'm in the business of getting better. Putting him on the roster does that. Let's get it done.

@DMoney has me shook with all his budget talk. Pena would be a great add. But I want a big & (especially) fast WR first and foremost. If we can get both, plus the safeties plus the playoff caliber DT and (M)LB, it would be glorious. If we're capping budget, then something's gotta give, and I want that WR1, S1, DT1, (M)LB1 and S3 ahead of Pena.

McCord had more than 100 attempts than cam. McCord threw the ball 592 times. Dude had almost 600 attempts. He was 1st in cfb by far. Cam had 454 attempts which was 11th. Beck was 12th with 448 attempts
