This should be Manny's attitude

Do we know why manny chose to not attend UM but rather FSU? His dad is alum and to the best of my knowledge not exactly poor. He is not being a fan. Fans do not get paid. He is a hire hand and we have no idea if his allegeince is to Miami. Lots of people attended games at the OB, that does not make them fans. Heck, I have sooners and Domers who traded with me. For all our great games. They sat with me in OB and I with them in thier cursed stadiums. None of us magically abandoned our shools for the others. Trust me, those two stadiums are real impressive and great atmospheres.

I ask what makes Manny a Cane? To me he is no different than every recruit from here who says Miami was his dream school a minute before they tapes off to another school. If he wins us a NC is will be happy for him to be a honorary Cane like JJ, Butch, Howard, Dennis and even Coker. But now he is no different than Golden.

So according to your logic if you attend a rival school that makes you for that school?

So Manny is a closet nole fan purposely destroying the canes so FSU can benefit while destroying his coaching career in the process?

Again not saying Manny is great coach but comparing him to Golden as far as understanding what Miami is about is way off base.

Golden didn’t grow up down here and had no ties to south Florida. Golden embraced pansy non aggressive defense and he didn’t really believe recruiting the area as much as Manny (not like he’s been successful).

There are so many things to criticize him about and here we are questioning whether he is truly wants UM to be successful just based on the fact he went to FSU.

Hey, Manny isn't intentionally sucking. He is a nole and it comes natural to him. That same choker gene got into Mark and cost him though out his career. But he was Cane family in the end and walked away with out the payout. The administration wasn't worthy suck an action but the family was. St Bobby was a slime in the same circumstance and milked every dime.

I got two kids who went to frigging UF and then both married gators. Now my family is crawling with them. Believe me they grew up Cane fans. They had prepaid college fund and did not want to work like I did to pay for Miami. They took the easy way out so the are gators. Maybe Manny's dad did what I did. Took care of a college ed but left if up to the kid if he REALLY wanted to be a Cane. My two asked me to pay, I told them get job, live at home, get whatever assistance you can and pay the rest out of paychecks. They chose uf. So, I am treating Manny no different than my own children.

Some of the greatest Cane fan I know were never alum. I was not an alum who became a fan, I was a fan, a young kid sitting in the rain drenched OB for the gator flop who later became a alum. All Cane fans are family: alum, players and people who have never stepped foot in Coral Gables. My problem is people grant him status because he grew up in Miami. I wonder how many gator and nole great did the exact same thing. There are, unfortunately, some alum who are not worthy of the name.
 
Great. And how long did it take Ed Orgeron to get to this point in his career?

Orgeron was 56 years old at this point; first head coaching gig in 2005 at Ole Miss (for three years), interim at USC for a year and was in his second season at LSU when he pulled the plug on Canada.

Diaz had a garbage first season—but it's also still his first season as a head coach and dude is 45 years old.

Rookie mistakes suck and they hurt this team in 2019—but you can't fast-track experience. Kid will have to learn on the job and will either get it, or he'll fail miserably.

Orgeron was super-transparent on ESPN College GameDay before the Alabama game; talking like an old veteran about personal growth, mistakes made, lessons learned.

Fans need to stop expecting someone as green as Diaz not to make mistakes at this point of his career.

That said, dude better get his **** together fast—let he find himself out of his dream job in the next couple of years.
I think if he showed any signs of making changes, he could get most of us to cool out until next season. Not that I'd be sold on him, but I'd chill if he fired his OC to at least show he understands the problem isn't all the kids.

But he's not going to do that is he? No, he's not. He's going to keep doubling down on the idea that there are a few bad apples among the players, but they'll be gone soon. Like everything would be great, but those few guys keep the whole team from being able to implement the awesome scheme his OC has.

So the problem is less that he's got little experience, it's that he's convinced he's the smartest guy and whatever he wants is what will happen. And if it doesn't, that's somebody else's fault, not his.
