"The Bear" speaks up today

No_Fly_Zone said:
I really appreciate that the Bear called out more than just football, which evidences the problem goes beyond just the team and coach, but to the AD (and the BoT who hired him and continues to keep him around).

The last three seasons of UM baseball have been abysmal. Two of those seasons we finished unranked and didn't qualify for the NCAA Tournament.

Basketball has also been abysmal the last 3 seasons, with three consecutive losing seasons. The team is 67-80 in conference play with only 3 tournament appearances (and 2 of them were first round exits) in the 8 seasons since Blake took over.

And, of course, the football team is 65-41 since Blake got the job (about a 63% win percentage), with 1 sorry bowl victory, and all of 3 seasons finishing in the top 25 (in 8 completed seasons).

It's an embarrassing resume for an AD.

Sheesh.. I’d hate to be manny. Cause no he's not the root of this evil but he’ll be forever affected by his decision not to stick it out with temple. I’m not caping for him but it’s a cold feeling when you know exactly where you went wrong and I know manny knows UM was ****ed up. But in his shoes what would you do? Say no to your dream?

He did exactly what most of us would do. He took the job. Not his fault in terms of that.
 
Cant wait to see the team get beat down by UVA...

Holding on to the "we can still win the Coastal" is a slap in the face seeing as how Miami has won it one time in 16 years...

Manny is quickly becoming more full of **** than Golden...

Insecure loser with no clue about winning football games, cant beat FIU but alludes to winning the ACC...

You sir, are a genius.

*Manny slip and sliding is covering up some of the words, might have to make him smaller (think lifesize, that should fix the issue)

This might also be appropriate for Frenk:

"Since you took over at school president, Miami has plummeted in academic rankings and sports are even worse than before.... what would you say you do here?"

I don't even care about Manny. I don't want him fired because that will just extend our misery when another mediocre corch comes in to "rebuild" and we have to give him another X years to be fair. Fvck that. Fire James and let's get going. He had every chance to bring someone in to address his weaknesses and chose not to.

This is pretty much the reasonable consensus. Get a football guy in the building to evaluate everything. We'll find out fast if Manny will be the guy or not

Actually, I want to expand on this. Most every bad manager I've ever seen has a benefactor watching over them. It's usually someone higher up and it's common that they'll take some task the upper manager dislikes or perhaps run interference from other department's criticism or something similar. It's rarely just simple *** kissing. Blake is doing something that makes Frenk's and/or the BOT's life easier. When the value of whatever he's doing is less than the value of bad publicity or public pressure, that's when we'll see a change. Until then, he can replace just about any coach or make some minor change and deflect any criticism.

I’ve worked for/with a few bozo’s in my time. One common denominator of them all is that because of their ineptitude, they can’t recognize talent if it hits them right between the eyes because of their own lack thereof.

Eventually it all comes out in the wash. Just never seems soon enough for those of us of that have higher IQ’s than a cat.
 
These losers in the AD actually hate the fans and spy on them on a message board to protect their own incompetence instead of working to make a viable product the fans will support...

That is how far gone they are and how far they are willing to go to stifle descent to protect their phoney baloney underachieving..

The hatred of the football team has now become hatred of the fans and for some reason people still give money to the absolute losers who are a national embarrassment...

Manny could have bama's roster and still get beat. Coaching gets you over the hump because talent is going to do it alone. He's so over his head here. How about developing the guys Manny? And maybe not showing your three man blitz from the weak side 20 seconds before the ball is snapped.....anywho what do i know.

If the Canes played Michigan State again this weekend with Manny and his staff coaching Michigan State and the MSU staff coaching the Canes....THe Canes would win.
