Yahoo Sports Does a Hit Job on Manny Diaz!

[Will Gee]

Miami coach Manny Diaz, who bailed on Temple after 17 days, demands recruits not visit other schools - Yahoo Sports

If only Temple had insisted on a similar pledge from Manny Diaz.

You should see the one they did on your Mom....Brutal....

I mean the article didn't tell any lies.

Manny needs to be allowed to do whatever he feels needs to be done to turn Miami around.

 

[KrazyCane]

the article is a bad look bc it does show hypocrisy but that’s the nature of the business.

Good god the comment section on that is focking aids

Miami has a decommitment problem so whatever we have been doing isn’t working so you got to do something. Miami by far has the most decommitments in the last decade. Don’t care for this article.

Stops kids from playing the bag game. That’s what Yahoo doesn’t want to report.

 

[TriStarCane]

We lead the league in decommitments every year. We have to try something different.

 

[MainLineCane]

He would have been better off saying don't commit until you're sure .....AFTER you take your visits

You cannot coerce someone into staying committed.

Coaches pull offers too. Should players ask for wloyalty oaths. Gtfoh

There are NO shortcuts in recruiting...even Saban recruits and has to guard against decommits..

You knew how the game was played b4 you took the job

Manny is showing a lack of sophistication and/ situational awareness, here.

Huge mistake, imo. He doesn’t have enough cache or experience to tell recruits that, and he’s hasn’t won anything. I like manny, but this is a bad look

 

[GladeCane]

Bailing after 17 days is not the same as 6 months or a year.

 

[nycane]

in fairness to manny, by all accounts he told them if um ever opened, he was leaving

 

[King Slayer]

Only 4 years of Manny unfortunately

 

[gruntking]

Depends if it’s before or after Manny drops bags.

 

[the storm]

This is recruiting 101....he isn't saying anything different here than any other head coach. Want to shop around you might miss the boat.

Agreed Manny made a commitment to temple and backed out. Everybody understands why he did it. Now he wants recruits to make a commitment and tells them to shut it down. Maybe if Miami actually started winning consistently recruits might not be backing out so often.

Not hit job at all. VERY accurate actually.

It isn't anti-Manolo as much as a commentary on coach vs student-athlete mobility.

Coaches have benefit of full and unrestricted movement, student-athletes (unlike regular students) do not.

Incredibly discriminatory.
