unbelievable

Each of the three playoff games before the Championship were all unbelievable experiences.
Sitting at Kyle Field with ~3, 000 Miami fans in the corner of the stadium and a few in the far end zone upper level was surreal. The way the game ended with the end zone interception was more relief than elation.... surrounded by Aggie fans behind the Miami sidelines.
The reaction from the he coaches and players is something that I will never forget....

He didn’t sneak lmao he was apart of the team and played ball. It’s not sour grapes, CFB is just different now.

Yes that's true and it's still weird. You were a few yards from a natty, were going to come back and litkely start for a team that will be in the hunt again, and you dip for a team that almost certainly will not. I'd understand if it was a significant NIL bump. Otherwise it is still just weird.

Not really a given for him to start with Mo and Smith coming back. Maybe he knows Wiley or another young guy is coming on strong and he would be in line for 3rd/4th LB snaps. Whereas he’s now at NC State? He ‘should’ be in line to start

This is one of the main reasons I am not mad about the title game (still a bit sore about it though). This is what we as Miami faithful especially those who grew up when this dynasty began, are accustomed to.

So, he's leaving to avoid competition. Let's just call it what it is.

He's a decent piece but he isn't irreplaceable especially if he's bailing to a "guaranteed" starting position. Call it sour grapes on behalf of fans who think he should have stuck around and competed, but the point remains the kid bailed hoping to avoid competition.

Figured Popo's dad would have a bit more trust in Mirabel (he played for Alex) and Cristobal regarding Popo's ever increasing role in the defense.
