Since 2013, eleven years, we've also had five losing seasons. Any idea how many years we had to go through from 2012 to count five losing seasons? We have to go back to 1955, when Bob Woodruff was the head coach. Now THAT is history.
I’m to the point where I’m not even bothered by it. If they perform well this season, I’ll get interested again. I expect another lackluster season. What other coaches are out there is the question on my mind.
we’ve finished with two losing seasons in a row with this regime so I would say it’s worse than mediocre
Please. Etienne walked in to a rb room that had two returning players who are returning from injuries, a walk on and 3 freshmen. He is a starter by being healthy. He wasn't able to outplay Johnson to be qb1, and he qanted qb1 alone. Johnson would be #4 on the Doak if he had transferred instead. Princely could hurt our pass rush but strengthen our run defense, so may be a wash. Other than them. Hopper is the only good player who has left in the past 2 years. Even those who have had success elsewhere have done so at a lower level. The upgrade in talent has been huge.
I completely disagree with you about Etienne. He was a dynamic that when he touched the ball. His pass protection was ass though. I'd be willing to bet that it improves substantially at Georgia and I think it would have improved here.
With the Georgia offensive line half the time a running back can take a nap back there and no one gets close to their QB. Sadly its an impressive group for sure.
Which includes back to back losing seasons in 1978-79. Its really disheartening to see 30+ years straight of no losing seasons flushed down the commode with some of the pathetic coaching hires and other administrative mistakes that have been made. I guess after that long the UAA thought they were immune to having a losing season.
Well, he had an NFL rb brother to coach him up the past two years on blocking. I'm not so sure what would be so special in 2024 that would make him a great blocker here or there. I think he is a great runner. We have several of them on our roster.
I’m not sure that he can’t block or he doesn’t want to block. Maybe he just needs to flip a switch in his head and try it
There was a lot more to it than just the coaching hires and maybe those other reasons are why we couldn’t make a top quality coaching higher. Coach’s dont want to go somewhere he doesn’t have everything he needs to win.
Interesting side note since this thread is about Miami. On ESPN's College Football today the analysts were asked who was overrated and underrated. Sam Ocho instantly said Miami was overrated by their ranking on the preseason AP Top 25 poll. (Meanwhile, when asked about underrated, another person said TAMU is and will surprise).
What about not running out of bounds when the team is trying to run clock? Is there a switch for that?
I am surprised I am mostly in agreement with him. I'm glad we play aTm early in the year. It wouldn't surprise me much though if Miami were decent. It would be all about the assistant coaches if Crisobal can stay out of their way
