If Mack Brown can do it so can Butch. Just admit you want things the way they are. Can't believe the excuses you people are reaching MILES up your a$$es and pulling out as reasons not to bring him back

1. Actually it's true, and the faster Cane fans stop overrating this roster the better. Other than Brevin (who's not a first day pick) And 15, the talent level is very comparable to FIU FAU, **** even GT on defense. GT had as much talent on defense as we did.
The rest of the roster is low round free agent type pick ups that don't end up on NFL rosters. Not even practice sqauds. Look at last years sr class, and the year before that. This years is worse. We have practice squad level talent on majority of roster. Why do you think we were Portal U this summer, because we were stacked? I think not.


Cornerback Mike Jackson, by Dallas, which was surprising because it’s somewhat uncommon to see a team cut a fifth-rounder four months after drafting him. Rookie defensive end Joe Jackson made the Cowboys 53-man roster.
▪ Cornerback Jhavonte Dean, by Pittsburgh.
▪ Offensive lineman KC McDermott, by Jacksonville.
▪ Rookie defensive tackle Tito Odenigbo, by Minnesota.
▪ Cornerback Corn Elder, by Carolina.
▪ Former UM and Texas safety Adrian Colbert, by San Francisco. Colbert just got released from Seattle practice squad.
St louis got released from practice squad. Gerald Willis can't even get on roster.

Dean sucked at Miami, and couldn't start over Bandy (our current starter) when he was a true freshman, despite Manny and/or Rumph's fetish with taller cornerbacks. Tito was a backup, who rotated. Our young DTs have more talent.

That same FIU that we were up 31-0 in the 4th qtr? Man, Butch Davis must suck as a coach to let a Mark Richt offense move the ball at ease with near equal talent. We had 488 yards to their 187, with most of theirs coming in the 4th when the game was already over. Watch our Oline look good when we have to play against a Dline whose best player is Fermin Silva.

No, it's not true that we have equal talent to those schools. Variation between talent isn't graded by them making an NFL roster or not. You can have two players who don't make the NFL and one being much more talented than other. You can have two players with talent to go to the NFL, and may not stick around due to injuries, disinterest in the game, on field IQ, behavioral issues, etc...

Stacey Coley and Malcolm Lewis were both WRs at Miami who spent 2 years on an NFL practice squad. One was a freshman all-american, who made countless big plays throughout his career against future NFL players, including first round picks. The other was a guy that was sparingly used, and couldn't separate against any notable defender. Coley's impact and potential impact while in college was far and away better than Malcolm's. You can find a Malcolm Lewis level WR on FIUs roster, but you can't find anything close to Coley. You won't find a Jeff Thomas, who smoked LSU and FSU defenders, because FIUs WRs can't do that. You don't say a player had the same potential in college based off talent, using their time spent in the NFL as a binary indicator.

If you cant see it after these past performances against CM, GT, NC, VT(all down programs coming off terrible previous years) it will probably take an FIU loss to convince you we have limited talent all over roster on par with FIU and FAU.

FIU had about 40 yards of offense at the beginning of the 4th quarter. The defense gave them a free touchdown when the whole secondary blitzed and a guy ran down the sideline by himself. (kinda like the fake punt). We should have scored more, but that game wasn't close.

Preach. Don’t expect the dopey heel diggers of cis to understand the intelligence and subtlety of your comments.

Let these mongoloids think UM and FIU have the same talent just because some blowhard podcasting to 11 slack-jawed nincompoops told them that’s the case.

Aside from that...….they probably show up for a few days but they have every ******* answer. Its the same thing as when they come on twitter saying they want to be the coaches. When everyone with a brain knows none of them would commit to the hours it takes nor do have they coached anywhere before. Its all really counter productive and ridiculous.

WELL SAID...

Here's the part where guys that have never been coaches know everything.

And I do respect those guys to a certain extent, but they are so far overboard right now and I believe counterproductive. It doesn't take them to point out UM has problems on the O-line.

Now we have a bunch of people attacking Hillary on twitter.

Butch supporters are off our rockers because we want the architect of the greatest college team ever assembled, teams you WISH we played like now, because we want him to have another crack it?

bc if you think **** recreate magic again in todays era of recruiting and resource driven CFB, then yes, theyre off their rockers. he built the greatest team of all time a LONG ago (i watched them my entire life as i grew up going to the OB), but CFB has changed. recruiting has changed and its very much big money to win now.
 
Romberg and MAC are placing blame on players. Lack of communication, not knowing plays, absorbing rather than firing off, no unity (cliques), not wanting to learn (#75 Hillary), not using hands, soft mentality, and not asked back for more help are just a few things mentioned. This sounds more than just coaching, and they would know more than most of us.

So if it’s not coaching then why do Rombozo and McKinnie think the OL needs their help coaching? If the coaching is top shelf, why does McKinnie feel they need his help with all those technical issues?

According to the podcast OL asked MAC for help and he couldn’t believe what he saw after initial session so he asked Romberg to join in for their next session. Both came away afterwards with the strong impression that players are to blame. MAC did mention Barry asking OL to use a particular OL technique on every play that he disagreed with but he said it wasn’t the reason OL play is abysmal.

When you truly want to help, you just show up & help. You don’t make a social media post every single time you help a kid at practice or if you just speak to them on the phone. That’s clout chasing, not helping.

Former players can’t show up unannounced it‘s a NCAA violation. They have to be asked by current players.
