"Tough Team Meeting"

You're a certain kind of dumb too aren't you?

Yep. A certain kind of dumb that has been a coach. If you see mistakes happening in practice, you stop and fix them. You show them what you want them to do and how you want them to do it. You can't expect the mistakes to magically go away once you get into the game.

Finally someone is holding the players accountable for the stupid penalties and absolute horrid situational understanding. I don't see this as Manny putting all the blame on the players. He knows it is his job to break the bone headed habits that, lets face it, most of the S. Fl kids have when it comes to knowing what to do, when to do it and simply knowing what the down and distance is. For years these kids take a P.I. on 3rd and 12 on a 8 yard route when they just have to make a tackle or take a selfish Personal Foul after a 3 and out to give the other team the ball back. It 125% negates any talent advantage we have over these ACC scrub teams that simply know what to do and when to do it. THAT IS THE CANCER & it will take Manny or anyone else time to root it out. Not saying he is not experiencing growing pains and has made his own crucial errors that cost us 2 games, but if many of the players simply knew the situation at all times we wouldn't have been in any position to lose to UF or UNC.

It really is amazing how often that happens.........the defense actually stops a team 3 and out but then after stopping the team on 3rd down, oh yeah, there's a personal foul and first down for the other team. The other ACC teams, with the possible exception of FSU, a team that tends to be about as undisciplined and idiotic as we are, don't carry on with this idiocy.
 
The disease is in the youth football in S. Florida where if you "can ball" it doesn't matter you don't know the down and distance. People said "look what Mack Brown is doing in his first year at UNC". I guarantee he wouldn't have a team of S. Florida kids turned around and playing smart that fast.

Not saying that Manny might not turn out to be that, but i doubt you can't smell the coffee under your nose based off the emotional comment you made

There’s nothing emotional about my comment. The purpose of practice is to implement the game plan, answer questions the players might have and correct the mistakes you see the players making. Am I wrong??? So if the coach doesn’t correct those mistakes in practice what does that say about that coach? Oh and btw I don’t drink coffee

So as a previous coach, you really don't think that is what the coaching staff does? I mean you said competition doesn't fix it, but competition does fix mistatakes. Someone steps up and makes plays.

But let me guess you think they just see the mistakes being made and don't do anything about it right. Nope just go out there and have fun guys. Is that what you think the staff is doing?

I tend to think a big part of saturdays performance was complacency and attitude. The team did not play the game with intensity and drive. Perhaps they thought it would be easy?

Lets see what happens in 10 days.

Just bench a couple of these fools and we will see immediate results...
..too much celebration around chains and rings and stupid plaques

WOW there a whole lot of dumb here. LIke i just said to the previous poster....do you think they didn't answer their questions, tell what they're doing wrong, correct them?

When it is time to start blaming a player for not stepping up? I always hear the CIS crew talk about the coaching, it's never about the coaching it's always about the players. What's been missing from Miami for the last 18 years are players who step up and make plays, not even the amazing plays, just the plays that are there to be made. Before you mouth breath that we are not being put into position to make plays, we are. Kids just have to make them

Mack Brown lost to App state last week and wake forest the week before that.

He beat a bad SC team and a poorly coached Miami team.

UNC could legitimately go 3-9 this season

Agree on all points. I was talking to the people blowing him after the first 2 weeks. It takes time and attrition to weed out the guys who will never get it, no matter how talented they are.

Sounds to me like you’re the one getting emotional. 😂

Palyers with bad habits is a problem. Coaches seeing those problems at practice and not immediately frigging doing something dramatic to fix it -- whatever is necessary to fix it -- is a real serious problem that requires people be fired.

Bad penalties have plagued this program for 40 years. Even the greatest teams we’ve ever had would have them constantly. They just out talented the other teams to overcome it.
