The nobody gives a crap update

Miami hasn't had a decent coach since 2002 OR a decent QB. No LB's,or game changing special teams players either. Swagger non-existent, horrible coaching (Manny never had a pedigree; why was he hired?) If UM can't hire Cristobal go after Hugh Freeze who can coach, recruit and has the ability to bring in a top notch staff. Say what you want about D'Eriq King but he turned the ball over FOUR times (most QB's would have been benched).

Howell had 4 vs vt and wasn’t benched

Lemonis went to high school (Columbus) with Mario and has mentioned him on several radio interviews of the years as a really intelligent guy. Carol Soffer already offered to buy our Mario's contract when Richt left so I would expect her to do the same this time around.

Mario may be entertaining USC, they also have money to burn.

We ran majority hitches and routes where the wr’s sat down. Mostly all short and intermediate stuff. Some of that was because Msu was giving huge cushions because they did respect the speed. But the biggest reason was King can’t put anything on the ball. Majority of all his misses the last two weeks are short hopping in the dirt. That’s never been an issue with him.

Knowing he’s hurt and still calling designed QB runs is criminal. Of course, King takes off on his own some, but why the **** add insult to injury.

After Manny's first year there was talks with Mario. He was on board, but hes not stupid. He required assurances ($$$ for staff, recruiting, etc.)

If we get Mario, it will at the very least show a financial commitment to the football team that we haven't seen before.

I agree but I don't see that happening. You are talking about a massive amount of money unlike we have ever seen before at Miami.

For all the alumni players who complain and demand excellence, they won't be the ones who will step up and help fork over cash neither will any of the key boosters.

Would love to see a real commitment made to the program but I don't see it happening. Sure, James may get fired but what's the likelihood the school and its leadership makes the right hire?

History has shown that the next AD will probably be a person like Strawley and she will more than likely hire a guy like Lashlee as HC. Or ****, she might go after Butch once he's been fired at FIU and signed his new contract over at Century Village (what a crazy buyout that would be).

As I posted last night I’d be surprised to see King play next week. The last couple games it’s been obvious he’s been short hopping throws , no matter how you feel about him he’s never had an issue with that. Well as some people here suspected he hurt his shoulder in the Alabama game and has been playing banged up. There’s things you can do to help subdue if but the kid is legit hurt. He’s a warrior and I respect the **** out of him for trying, but he needs to sit. He doesn’t have to prove anything to anyone .

When I said Msu could be the beginning of the wheels coming off I meant it, there’s a lot of unhappy people from Bot’s, former players and current players. It could definitely get worse.

As for the buyout , it’s chump change. It’s close or even less than what we gave Temple. That’s not even an issue.

TS was puking off and on during the game because he was sick as a dog. Too bad theres not more guys like him and King.

Mario will 100 % be the first call ( shocker) , he’ll probably get the second and third call too.

Next week expect the depth chart to have some changes, some different faces getting more burn. Both Elijah’s being a couple . It’s sad it takes to reaching an epic meltdown before the light goes on. If LT doesn’t play next week officially be concerned. He was supposed to play yesterday.


As of today Manny is on the hot seat imo his hail mary shot to save his job is making wholesale changes, putting in young guys , hoping and praying for a spark/miracle. Because at this point its more a when. not if.

Pull the trigger. Dead man walking at this point.

King fired a beauty to Smith at the end and Smith's effort was poor. And another to Brinson that was caught out of bounds. Our problem might be a lack of anyone fast enough to get behind the DBs.

You can’t get behind DBs when you’re down 20 points at the end of the 4th and the defense is essentially playing prevent lol we have plenty of guys that can get behind DBs.

I was a Manny supporter and believed he just need time. I wanted Manny to succeed because he was young, knew the city, knew the program, and could talk. Turns out he's just a guy. Not the guy to lead us anymore. I don't even care if we win the coastal (which we won't), we need a major upgrade. Same story different season for the Canes.

The majority of people wanted him to be the guy so we wouldn't have to suffer through another cycle of worsening performance, replacement and development.

Yet here we are. We enjoyed all the signs of positive improvement, but never got the results.

All this talk about seeing what Garcia can do with no mention of the actual QB2. Having watched both extensively through spring, who would you start @Cribby ?
Lashley has been absolutely subpar this year but it is hard to get creative when you don't have any time to throw the ball. This **** offense is on the offensive line which has been offensive.

It’s not popular for some but Highsmith is the guy i want , i want competitive , hungry people leading this program. Who knows what winning looks like.

Highsmith as AD!? This university man..

I respected the **** out of his football resume but what qualifies him to be AD?

This school really needs to reevaluate its athletic department structure. Highsmith could fill a role as Head of Football Ops, answering to the AD and working WITH our HC but to make him a full AD just could lead to alot the same.

Whoever it is, we need admin to see the benefit of their success

You know he's been a front office executive in the NFL for years, right? This isn’t a Lynn Swann type situation.
