DrJacksPlaidPants Moderator No. 18 Share Posted September 25, 2022 That 98 yard TD pass was reminiscent of the ASU game in 2019. I’m sure there will be a thread about the Canes forum members and their defense of MC. The Ducks have had some bad losses, but they were typically within the Pac12. The BSU losses were bad, but those were BCS Bowl teams that beat Oregon. I think this shows how the transfer portal is helping the G5 teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damages expected to be over $80,000,000. Nah, I give him two years at most, similar to Slick Willie at FSU. It ends with a buyout. The fans will be calling for his head by the end of this season, demanding change. He won't have it nearly as easy as he did in the Pac-12, getting to a 10 win season or winning a ACC title. They are delusional, thinking that he can lead them to the playoffs or even a Natty. They only need to watch the last four seasons of the Ducks to know what kind of coach they bought themselves. A lot of the fans are trying to justify that MariØ just needs time to recruit his players. That will help solve some of their issues, but it won't fix their team. They can have the best players, and MariØ will still have them underperforming and playing down to the competition. Many of them were saying that MariØ plus the bags of money is the right fit for Miami, long-term. Although, when questioned if they would take MariØ without the money, "No," was the common response. I'm still waiting for the day when his ability to recruit matches his ability to coach. Money will always ensure that Miami will be able to recruit though.

I've said it before, but as a reminder again, Mario's first play called as head coach at Oregon was a timeout BEFORE the opening kickoff of the game. I've watched a lot of football over the decades, and I have never ever once seen that happen before. I'm more thankful by the minute that Miami came calling. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
