Our Canes are 2-1. I am not complaining. Our Canes need to get ready for Ga. Tech and NC State.

[BEERicane]

^looks like someone has moved on from snorting it to smoking it

[Jack]

Cocane - Logan Thomas will look all world vs
Our D!

[Jack]

I agree with you on the other wins!! 7-5 at best 6-6 most likely as long as this team continues to grow!

[orange 'n green in the vein]

BEER, I can see his point though, it all depends on what kind of performance the staff can coach out of the team on any given week and the scheme deployed. Noticed a lot more press being played on the corners today but then again, that competition talent level wasn't top flight so that obviously helped.

ND is about to get put through a wood chipper tonight so they're about to get the blue print for winning that game for the outright upset. Just got to keep the three headed monster healthy at RB and churn out 150+ ground yards and all those can be wins with a positive turnover ratio.

[4-Real]

The tide is what we used 2 be. But look on the bright side, they cant touch us in the classroom :)

[solarcane]

Cane Football= Groundhog Day

[Jack]

Our D used to look like the Tides, our O was way better!!

[CoCane]

Queericane,

Smoke some with me

[CGNC]

Here is my take on that. They (Yahoo and ESPN) were ALL OVER the Shapiro crap when Yahoo broke it. NOW it looks like alot of it cannot be substantiated AND Penn State stole that thunder. Eff Them. :-D

[CoCane]

I'm still a fan & I still want to see my team ball

[CGNC]

Solar! What's up?

[CoCane]

CGNC,

I cosign ^^^

[MassivCane]

In my opinion, 6 wins looks to be acheiveable, hopefully there are no issues that prevent us from hitting that goal. We aren't going to beat FSU, but we could steal some wins away from other teams. The whole team is young and just not geling right now. Morris couldn't hit any open targets today, if he did the core would have probably been +21. Duke brings back memories of Edge, McGahee, Moss. He will be an AA before he leaves. The O-Line is only going to get better and the receivers are good. The whole scheme on O needs to be more aggressive. The D will get there, the kids just need to grow and get stronger. The problem is, we really don't have time for those excuses. We really need to start winning games. BC was a good first win, KS was a terrible loss, and BCC was expected. I didn't think we would only score 38 but Morris needs to get his head right or get replaced.

As for Lville, please remember if all the Miami scandal stuff about paying recruits is true, that would be true for all those kids in the ville(just speculation). Please also remember that we have had very poor coaching and recruiting the past 8 years. Golden is really the first tru HC we have had since Butch. Yeah we may see some coodinator changes (i doubt it) but as lon as Al stays he will be able to build that foundation. Until we have consistency with our coaches we aren't going to be good. Until we can continue to recruit solid players we aren't going to be good. Only time will tell.

[CGNC]

Co, I heard that tool Reece Davis today talking about "the artist formerly known as the U". He could not pass as a mediocre game show host. Between he and Mark May, I don't know, I see their mouths move, yet.....nothing

[solarcane]

hi CG,
Canes win, UNC prolly gonna lose, good day all around

[Tsully76]

BeeriCane nah I am just not the typical bandwagon Miami fan I put my money where my mouth is. Btw so what do miamians spend their money on other than the Heat all the other teams ain't winning jack. BTW so when our Canes was winning titles we still only average about
55,000 fans a game so u bandwagon Canes fans can hydrogen .

[Tsully76]

so u bandwagon fans can get kick rocks.

[BEERicane]

Spend their money on private school for the kids so they don't have to go to the garbage public schools down here.

[Jack]

UNC on an epic come back, maybe!!

[BEERicane]

Unless you win the MAST lottery or Pinecrest

[Felipe]

Wow UNC storming back. 34-39 in redzone

[Felipe]

Good grief what is it with teams today storming back then falling apart at the very very end? North Carolina turnover on downs.

[Felipe]

@Manny_Navarro

Duke Johnson has 638 all-purpose yards through 3 games.He's on pace to finish with 2,552 yards. #UM record is 2,102 by Willis McGahee

[Felipe]

I hope Rocky Top beats the living piss out of the Gators. EOM

[solarcane]

UNC lot of heart today no quit, GT bulldozers, tough sledding ahead

Al said something about some of the things not showing up in practice, just game day (false starts I think).

That's what scares me the most, that some of these guys are practice powerhouses that might be pissing themselves come game day. Exact opposite attitude we're looking for. If true, hope they grow out of it. See it as an opportunity to re-define the U, not as an on-your-heels-have-to-defend-the-U mentality. That'll get you clocked every time.

[TonyCane]

Sad thing is that even without sanctions, the earliest that we will get close to 9 wins is 2014. It will take that long to get quality depth reinserted back into the lineup.

Not liking the fact that we only have 11 kids committed at this point. Reminds me of Shannon's last year (although that number dwindled as the season went on).

[tjl3909]

Tony-I think they only have 15-16 schollys available for next year so 11 commits at this point is great

[tjl3909]

Amari Cooper, FL kid??

Posted by: Jack | September 15, 2012 at 05:41 PM

He's from Miami Northwestern

[CoCane]

How bad is Perryman's injury?

[Tsully76]

86 it was great seeing and hanging with ya. It was good tomeet you Ocala Cane as well see you fam in 2 weeks. Go Canes

[4-Real]

Reese said the the same thing last week. Ksu in a dogfight with North Texas so far....thats right, North Texas :(

[Panamacitycane]

It's only 7-7 kstate vs north Texas 5 left in the first half.. wowser!

[Jack]

Thought so thanks man, Amari is a good looking freshman.

[Q]

Mighty North Texas and the Olympians known as Kansas state 7-7 inthe middle of the second

[Jack]

Al Golden in presser "We will deliver". I believe in Al Golen!

[4-Real]

When Alabama fans walk up 2 me on a daily basis & tell me that Miami's school president wants or appears 2 want 2 DO AWAY WITH ATHLETICS......c'mon now!!?

[86Cane]

NEW BLOG IS UP!

[CoCane]

Maybe the KSU game was one of those games where 1 team plays the best they can, while the other plays their absolute worst. Shrugging

Also KSU could be full of themselves. It still means something to beat the U. Everyone still brings their A game against us... Ijs

[Daddeh]

What time do most people show up to tailgate @ our home games?
