...when you're talking about Manny Diaz. Yeah Jimmy went 8-5 (in 1984, 🙄). Look at his schedule!!!

1. #10 Canes (N) #1 Auburn W 20-18
2. #10 Canes (N) #17 Florida W 32-20
3. #1 Canes @ #14 Michigan L 14-22
4. #5 Canes @ Purdue W 28-17
5. #4 Canes vs #15 FSU L 3-38
6. #16 Canes vs Rice W 38-3
7. #14 Canes @ #16 Irish W 31-13
8. #10 Canes @ Cincy W 49-25
9. #9 Canes vs Pitt W 27-7
10. #6 Canes @ Louisville W 38-23
Wheels come off the D a bit here
10. #6 Canes vs Terps L 40-42
11. #12 Canes vs #10 BC L 45-47
12. #13 Canes (N) #14 UCLA L 37-39

Newsflash guys. We're in the Corstal and some of you are saying well Jimmy went 8-5! Jimmy played 7 ranked teams and beat 3 of them including #1 Auburn, and Florida and Notre Dame.

I'm not even saying we gotta fire Manny today, even though I didnt want him in the first place and am still very disappointed in the hiring process. Just please stop the nonsense comparisons to Jimmy Johnson. Jimmy was playing a murderous schedule in his first season with a staff he didnt get to pick.

Yeah but jimmy had a top 10 team...got up to number 1 then got killed by FSU and faltered down the stretch..Manny had us ready for a top 10 UF Team.. jimmy was in the top 5 numerous times and went 8-5. I get the schedule part tho on face value Jimmy played a tough one..but still went 8-5 with a top 10 team that made it up the number 1 rankings..still apple to oranges as far as circumstances..but if manny goes 8-5 which means this team starts playing better and then u compare it to jimmys 8-5 season, I’d say mannys 8-5 is more acceptable (don’t twist my words into saying 8-5 is good).. who ever made this comp is tripping tho, different circumstances

Jimmy did rather well until the D fell off at the end though. Then he got his staff in place, the rest is history.

Yeah but I’m just saying if we come into the season ranked 10th, beat the number 1 team, then somehow lose 5 games in said season including blown out and embarrassed against FSU, I’d be much more disappointed then if manny goes 8-5 after the start we’ve had...but like I said it’s no comparison because we know jimmy made history

When Jimmy was at okst he was very conservative in his playcalling.jimmy's first year here think he had to learn how coach/game plan with the talent we had.

I’m not old enough to know the narrative that was going on during jimmys time..just know he’s a legend. But all coach go through adversity. If u fail you get remembered for all your shortcomings. If you succeed, nobody remembers the fact that you were “Clemsoning” for years

Some thought the same way about Jimmy when he was hired here as they did about the last several current/recent hires.

Dummies just wanna blindly say “it takes time, it’s okay to lose year 1” without any context or perspective
