Almost all of you are jumping the gun and are being unfair to Manny. He’s only a first year coach and he needs time. Dabo had a losing record in year two, LSU lost to Troy 2 years ago, and Alabama lost to Lousiana Monroe in Sabans first season
I see many positives:
1. The team believes in Manny and continues to bring energy. Example, even though we were down to FIU late in the 3rd and in the 4th, players were dancing on the sideline. Those guys still had hope and were into the game. They didn’t quit!
2. Turnover chain. It’s a Miami thing and you wouldn’t understand. Best prop in football. And we’ve got TD rings too!
3. Manny is from Miami and understands Miami. Did he play college ball? No. High school football or even JV football? No way! he went to games with his dad in the 80s, so he understands the Miami standard, he so often references.
4. He was fired for non performance but you cant point to that, because Belicheck and Pete Carrol were once fired.
5. Miami is the first team in 40 years to lose three games in a season which they were favored by 14 points or more, but gambling leads to addictions, so you shouldn’t be gambling or thinking about point spreads, anyway. So, in a way, Manny is performing a public service...a public good.
6. This Miami team is easily the best sideline dancing team in 35 years. You even got walk-ons getting in on the action. There is some talent on that sidelines...I see some guys that will give professional dancers a run for Miami.
7. Old heads: Stop being ignorant and be patient! 4 weeks ago, after the GT or VT loss Manny said this was a complete rebuild. This is the new Miami and the culture needs time to take hold.
We support you Manny!
