TCU, USC, U of Wash & Duke

Yeah. Sucks that the man in charge decided that he had to take this thing down to the studs. That’s always more costly and leads to some headaches. But that was his decision and we’ve gotta live with it.

Ultimately, if in December 2025 we’re 10-2/11-1 and playing in the conference title game, with a chance at a spot in the expanded playoff (as I’d hope everyone here is rooting for - rather than being able to say “I told you so” about Mario), this year is just a blip on the radar.
True, I lack patience admittedly. I was hoping when he came it wouldn't have to be blown completely up, here we are though. Just fix it, all I care about.

I mean, if you have an answer, lay it out for us. Why are we stuck in 20 years of 7-5 seasons with a hundred different position coaches but the same recruiting base?
If you hate our recruiting base and think that’s why we lose, how can you have hope for Mario when 75% of our recruits for next year are from the same Florida recruiting base…he’s following the same blueprint as all our past coaches.

Only interjecting to say in the past we were getting a bunch of low rated South Florida kids and now we are getting some TOP South Florida kids, so there is a bit of a difference
 
2021:
UF: 6-7
Oklahoma 11-2
UVA: 6-7
ND: 11-2
SMU: 8-4
VT: 6-7
Texas Tech: 7-6
WASU: 7-6

2022:
UF: 6-6
Oklahoma: 6-6
UVA: 3-7
ND: 8-4
SMU: 7-5
VT: 3-8
Texas Tech: 7-5
WASU: 7-5
The only 2 schools that fired their coaches were TTech and VT.
 
The most damning indicator was Duke. A terrible team with way worse talent than us turned it around year 1 & rubbed their nuts against our forehead at home

We have gotten tons of four and five stars, two 5 stars just a couple years ago that are still on the team…there is little to no difference that can be concluded so far. The only difference is we have seen past recruits already play in college. Current recruits have the luxury of giving fans eternal optimism. Either way, that’s not what I’m talking about because he has repeatedly said florida recruits are the problem

Oh, sweetie, I didn't say Florida. I said South Florida.

No facts in these responses, just vibes.

Cormani McClain is our 6th highest rated recruit EVER (according to 247), and highest since 2010.
Francis Maugioa is 7th.

Thats a difference.

I wont say SF recruits are the problem, we just werent getting the right ones.

this guys seriously trying To argue that 3-9 Stanford and 4-8 usc were somehow good teams in September in an effort to defend Mario…

In fairness Utah thoroughly beat UO, although I would argue rumors began circling of Mario being interested in Miami at that juncture; nevertheless, a true *** whipping.

Against Stanford, being that I watched that game, not only did CJ Verdell sustain a crazy injury that slowed momentum, but the refs legitimately stole that game from UO. Now it can be also argued that UO had enough talent to overcome that injury, but if anyone watched UO last season, the offense was CJ, which protected Brown from having to throw as much, & allow him to set up play action for easy completions.
