I’m not big on Cristobal (I think he has a glass ceiling) but one thing that is clear to me is I think Lane Kiffin would be a big mistake at Miami.
The days of him being a big recruiter are gone; people don’t want to work with him (staff hires), and he’s never going to push your program forward. I can’t believe people are ignoring his time at USC where he turned that team into a group of chumps with some skill here and there but zero heart and no fundamentals (and his non skill players were trash).
Lane would maybe put a good season together, but what he’d do to Miamis depth chart and overall program during his stint would be a disaster.
Not a fan of him either, but I think he has progressed as a coach since USC. Learning under Satan did him well. Ole Miss looked really good except against UofA and auburn.
He is not the long term solution, but who are you all expecting to really entertain the idea to come here? He isn’t the same coach that he was 8+ years ago at USC. He aint perfect, but we go to Charlotte next year with TVD and our skill crew with him running the show. Howell, Pickett, Leary, Hartman all gone. We score 40+ a game and cruise to Charlotte next year and he brings a solid staff. We could so, so, so, so much worse.
With all the good HC openings and the late start by the yet to be hired AD, Miami will be lucky to score a good HC if they fire Diaz. Might be smarter to wait a year?
We can’t, this years recruiting class is already an abomination. Two of those back to back and it’s not even going to matter who we hire cause they’d be fucked in a couple of years.
ALL THE COACHES WE ARE TALKING ABOUT SUCK BUT WE MOST DEFINITELY HAVE TO GET RID OF THE FIRST GUY IN 30 YEARS TO RECRUIT NOT ONLY A GOOD QB (PROBABLY AT LEAST TWO) BUT THE BEST ONE POSSIBLY EVER…
What games are you watching? The defense fucking sucks…And has been going backwards for 3 years now. And Diaz, who struggles on gameday to begin with, decides to add DC back to his repsonsibilities? What an ego…
IF ANY OF YOU JUST LISTEN TO DIAZ INTERVIEWS HE HAS SAID MANY TIMES THE PROTAL HAS CHANGED CFB AND RECRUITING…
I don’t care what he says…It’s all bullshit, like I said he’s a used car salesman/politician talking. He double talks constantly
DO YOU KNOW FOR A FACT WHY WE HAVE THE NUMBER OF COMMITS WE HAVE?
Because he tried to get cute for this class…And he bet on this season. And he made some bad passes. Also…You don’t know anything either.
Let’s put it in your terms…Regardless of policy…Do you think Joe Biden makes a good leader? I don’t think Manny Diaz is a good leader. I think throughout the week during the season he does not do what strong coaches do…Whether it be running a practice, the fact he is way way too nice to players, whether it be fundamentals…Etc, etc. And I don’t believe he is a leader. I don’t want a head coach that is running up and down the sideline with 4 fingers over his head going into the 4th quarter vs. FSU…That’s for the players. He’s overly emotional and I don’t believe he is a good coach. He is a decent recruiter that was likely helped by more kids ALL OVER THE COUNTRY staying closer to home than any other year due to covid nonsense.
SO DO YOU HOLD SABAN, THE SEC, DABO TO THAT STANDARD?
THEY ARE ONLY GOOD RECRUITERS BECAUSE THEY CHEAT AND HAVE UNLIMITED RESOURCES?
SKEETER YOU ARE A SMART GUY THINK ABOUT THAT RECRUITING STATEMENT…
Why does it matter? We aren’t talking about them.
CAN YOU POST ACTUAL EVIDENCE THAT DIAZ’S HISTORY IS THIS?
WHEN DIAZ GOT THE JOB THE OFFENSE WAS COMPLETE GARBAGE…
HE BROUGHT IN TWO CLASSES HE BROUGHT IN A HIGHLY RANKED TRANSFER QB AND TWO STUD QBS…
ONE WHICH COULD BE THE BEST EVER HERE AFTER 30 YEARS OF NOT REALLY HAVE A GAME CHANGING QB…
What about his defense…All the holes …you asked for, I listed…You deflected, as usual. When is the defense going to turn around, we are on 3 (maybe even 4?? Can’t remember) of defensive regression. The defense is his baby.
