Cane Since 1982

86,

My question: 7-8 years ago you sold some CaneSpace stickers for cars of Sebastian with our football titles listed under/around him and a space for the next championship to go, any chance that these things still exist?

Pops just totaled his truck (not his fault) and the only thing he wanted back was that sticker.

86Cane

First off, sorry to hear about your Pop's accident. Glad he is OK. Those decals were made by Cat5 Cane and distributed on a one time only basis. I will see if he can replicate or reproduce a new batch for another distribution.

Oh not asking for special order. But I smell a NC coming this year so he may have a hot item to sell again.

Jon Feliciano #70.

You're are a great fan but no fun! Of course U knew, but others had no clue! LOL

BigWindyCane1

Forget Feliciano’s Hurricanes stats and NFL history, Had you mentioned Feliciano’s mom, then everyone on Canespace would know who you were talking about immediately.

I think we will have more than 2 on the All American list next year, AND before the end of the season THIS SEASON. This can be a special season. There is a lot of buzz surrounding the program and the players are excited about playing this upcoming season. That indoor practice facility and surrounding campus looks great. Recruits love it, and they want to come to Coral Gables and play here. The players are anxious to get inside and practice in the new facility. Their level of preparation, excitement and performance will rise.

No tailgating. Don't get too giddy just yet.

And the QB play? What will happen there?

Go Canes!!

After everything other possible factor is posted, argued about and disagreed with vehemenently, it will all come down to this.

Go Canes!!

Most #ESPN 4-star & 5-star commitments by Power 5 Conference June 30:

#SEC 89 (6.4 average per team)

#B1G 44 (3.1 per team)

#ACC 40 (2.9 per team)

#Big12 23 (2.3 per team)

#Pac12 23 (1.9 per team)

Note: The #SECWest teams have 57 alone, or 8.1 average per team.

This cycle, we aren't helping that average out much, at least not so far.

Hurricane time coming to Arlington

AeroCane

Good morning Canespace friends

There is a really nice free article on 'inside the U' regarding the weight gains/losses during this off season. I would of linked but have no idea how to

thirstybuzzardcane

AeroCane, I got you my man!

Gregory Rousseau is going to be beast! He will definitely be playing a lot!

SinisterCane

If Noiser starts......LSU 28 CANEZ 10

86Cane

For Go Canes' EYES ONLY:

"Sophomore Navaughn Donaldson is looking to make the transition from guard to offensive tackle in 2018 and he has dropped ten pounds from his listed weight last year. Look for Donaldson to try and weigh in at 330 pounds (or maybe lower if possible) by the start of the season."

Fat and slow is no way to go through life.

Posted by: thirstybuzzardcane | July 02, 2018 at 10:49 AM

AGREED! The coaches said Rousseau was a MAJOR disruptor during the Spring scrimmages! They had to re-adjust their offensive linemen to try to account for him!

BigWindyCane1

Gus Felder is doing serious work. The Canes team as a whole is looking the part.

I saw some of the players in shorts and t-shirts during CMR summer camps, and they look really good. They are big and athletic across the board. Even the DTs look like they carry their weight well. We will see if looks translate into playing well.

Donaldson is just a massive human being. you don't see people that massive on over ACC team.
Donaldson has always been just naturally huge, powerful and strong, since I first saw him in high school. As Soup would say though, "Fat and slow is no way to go through life."

When you see him standing next to the other Canes OLs, you can see that Donaldson stands out. If Donaldson gets his weight down to 330 or lower, he will definitely be first team All American this season and the Canes will have a dominant offensive line - vault that.

Rousseau is definitely tall, and carries his weight well. He can pack some more weight on more muscle on that tall, long frame for sure. Rousseau played several positions in high school, but it looks like he has settled in at DE, and there isn't much depth in front of him so he should see some playing time this season.

The Canes look like a top 5 team in shirts and shorts. We will see if they play like it.

SOUP

The SOUP is hot:

Five University of Miami men's basketball alums are on rosters for the 2018 NBA Summer League, which kicks off Monday and runs through July 17. Lonnie Walker IV and Trey McKinney Jones (San Antonio Spurs), Bruce Brown, Jr. (Detroit Pistons), Kamari Murphy (Brooklyn Nets) and Davon Reed (Phoenix Suns) each will be competing in the annual summer league. The action starts July 2-5 in Salt Lake City and Sacramento before shifting to Las Vegas from July 6-17. All games in the NBA Summer League will be televised by ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU or NBA TV.

Heck, even I look good in shirts and shorts.

Wait a minute, check that, no I don't.

Any idea when Vernon Carey Jr is due to make his pick? He’s currently projected #2 in the 2020 NBA Mock Draft. Hey

Go Canes!!

You called him slow, fat and lazy and a terrible tackle.

I said he was an All American, at guard, not tackle.

He didn't play a single snap at tackle last year.

How was i wrong again?

Go Canes!!

Not one for recruiting hyperbole but after watching some of the videos of these kids at The Opening, Evan Neal has to be the number one must get for CMR and company this cycle.

Kid looks to be a heavy Miami lean and was dominant at tackle against the best in the nation.

No, wrong again Gilligan!

I called him slow and fat last year AT GUARD.

Then came all of the talk about moving him to Tackle this year and I said "If he stays slow and fat with and lacking fitness/endurance that he will not fare well at Tackle and that Rosier will be TOAST."

He wants to move to tackle to get paid. The UM coaches have agreed to it because he may be the best (Gauthier?) OL player they have on the team and hope he can play Tackle.

Terrance Sullivan

I hope ND gets down to about 320 he could be flat out nasty at that weight.

Japan redefines "class act". Their fans pick up their litter after the game. And their team cleans up the locker room and leaves a thank you note.

The World Cup needs a golden pacifier (or maybe a couple of balls in sack for obvious reasons) award for the biggest wussy. Right now, Neymar is an easy winner for his screaming, ankle grabbing, ground rolling injury hysteria. The guy should have been given last rites, carried off the field and tossed in a dumpster for that display.

That's what SHE said!

86Cane

Soccer, even if you want to argue that it is the most watched or played sport in the world, is simply hard to watch. The faking, diving and carrying on by the players is beyond ridiculous.

Watching the announcers comment on the highlights at halftime of ANOTHER scoreless game is pathetic. "Look, he had a shot on goal" or "See there he almost made a goal" as the shot soars 20 feet over the goal. The accuracy of the passes even makes Rosier look good!

Then you have the commentators saying "1v1" as though they have invented and coined a new phrase. NEWS FLASH...it has been called "One on One" in every sport since the beginning of time. BUT NO, they want to say "1v1" as though it is cool or something?

Then the players literally attack the referees and soccer is OK with that. If a player even bumps or touches the ref they should get a RED card and be ejected. Watching them argue and yell and insult and make contact with the refs is disgraceful for ANY sport.

OK, I'm done.

3 Lions!

Go Canes!!

Soccer to me is like curling at the Olympics. I enjoy it because of how heightened the emotions are of everyone invovled.

But as a sport, to me it’s like watching a baseball game where every potential home run goes foul. Sit there forever, scream for a second, then sit down again disappointed.

Go Canes!!

Happy 4th everyone
