What would you deem to be a successful season for Manny and Miami?

[Hurricane23]

I would say anything more than 2 loses would be disappointing. With the talent that we have, I just don’t think we loose (or should loose more than 2), with the energy Manny is bringing, it seems like this has to be it. Thoughts?

 

[JD08]

Just don't let us get humiliated like we did at LSU.

Beating UF and FSU in the same year

 

[Martycane]

11-3, including a Coastal title (and a loss in the championship game) is something I could live with. Especially if we could become a top 50 offense.

Icing on the cake would be getting the W vs the turds, but to me a successful season this year is simply getting to Charlotte and at least being competitive vs clemson. The strange thing for that standard though is if we DONT get to charlotte the season will be an absolute disaster in my book.

Beating UF and FSU in the same year

And at least make Clemson work in the ACCCG

 

[brcane1]

We need to recapture forward momentum. 10-4 / 10-3 would be a success in my mind.

 

[uprising]

Nothing less than the coastal and W's over ufag & fsux

 

[g8rh8rMD]

Win the Coastal, no blowout losses, including ACCCG and bowl game.

 

[ALLoverCANE]

Most of you guys are pretty delusional, haha. A successful season in a coach's first year would be topping any season we've had in the last 15 years?

I think an 8-4 regular season with a nice bowl win, and end-of-year momentum would be a good year. Hopefully that includes 1-2 of the following: beating UF, beating FSU, winning the coastal.

And if that happens, all of you will be pounding your chests come next January, and talking about being national contenders in 2020!

 

[PGrady24]

9-3 regular season should be the floor. Easy schedule with 3 bye weeks. QB play, play calling, and special teams will all improve (cannot get worse than last year). Defense will keep us in every game.

 

[twes.305]

Worst 11-2. The only teams that we should or might lose to is UF and Clemson. Clemson we will lose for sure in the ACC title game, but I want Um to at least compete and not get blown out by them like they have been.

 

[RedPill Stepdad]

Wins are important but I will be looking to see if this team plays with passion and emotion like a Hurricane team should.

If we win 9 games and Manny ran up the score on those 9 teams, and our team played with passion, I will be satisfied.

 

[CanesFan93]

9-3
-Defense is top 35
-Offense improves at least 10 spots

Like RevLee said, I want to see a totally different demeanor from the team. Better strength and conditioning; would like for Shaq and Pinck to not look so chubby. A good majority of the team playing like Bandy--100% all the time.

 

[SWFLSWAGG17]

We have to beat all the teams we are supposed to beat. If we lose close to UF, beat FSU keep it respectable with Clemson in the AAACG and a bowl performance not mailed in like last year it will not be a disappointment.

I however think we beat those trailer trash Tebow loving Uncle ****ers and build momentum through the season.

 

[SonsofSoul]

Beating UF and FSU in the same year

That would be a nice start, because the rest of the schedule this season is underwhelming. Winning all those games but losing to UF and FSU would NOT be the definition of a "successful" season. We will be favored to win most, if not all, of the regular season games except UF.

 

[Canedog]

If Manny beat Florida and FSU, Canedog will crown his *** even if he lose every other game.

 

[Hurricane23]

So seeing we are starting the season not ranked, would consider it a upset if we beat Florida?

 

[swampcougar1]

Have an offense with a heartbeat. Win the coastal. Have an offense with a heartbeat. At least be competitive in the ACC championship game. Have an offense with a heartbeat. One last thing. Have an offense with a heartbeat.

 

[streetja]

Get us to the ACCCG and for the first time in over a decade have us play entertaining football on both sides of the ball
