The Optimist In Me

Like everyone on the Canespace blog I have my moods. I have been the greatest optimist and the most dire pessimist at different times. In fact, over the last 14 years, I have probably had enough angst to last a lifetime.

But today, for some unknown reason, I am feeling generously optimistic.

I believe in this team because, well, because I suddenly want to, and I do.

As you watch the game think of this blog as I am making a BOLD prediction:

1. The Miami Hurricanes offense will look like a well oiled, efficient machine versus Duke.
2. The running game will get un-tracked racking up over 200 yards.
3. The passing game will feature quick hitters and yards after catch and a few BIG plays.
4. UM will score 34 points in easy fashion while holding the opposition down to 13 points.
5. The "Turnover Chain" will be loud and proud during this game appearing three times.
6. Miami will return a kick for a TD as special teams look special.

I believe in Coach Mark Richt and I believe in this team.

So prove me right or prove me wrong.

The optimist in me wants to see what you got!

Nope, holding. Bring it back.

I dont understand the game, do I get 2 players from last 10 years?

Brad Kaaya & Matt Bosher.

[WWIN]

I'll take it

Posted by: Mark Richt | November 06, 2018 at 10:03 PM

I'm sure you will pastor... I'm sure you will!

[BigWindyCane]

If we want to go back 20 years, then we have Jeremy Shockey, Greg Olson and Bubba Franks and others to talk about. I am referring to the last ten years on offense. Defense has a bunch, including Willis, Jaquan Johnson, Shaq and many others, but offense doesn’t have many

[Herbieibis]

The way we punt, we might as well go for it on 4th down.

[Herbieibis]

Va,
U mean The Rat!!

[VA Cane]

Solar if I had to take 1 more it would be ST26...just showed my son that hit in the pro Bowl when he was a Skin.
That guy , with his running mate ER20...and the Man Rohan were the best guys....I met Rohan at VT one time...he signed my pass....he is my favorite of all time....RE college guys....
My favorite all time player...got to know him well when my Godfather was DC at Oakland was #32 The Assassin Jack Tatum.....Rohan was another Assassin!!!

Was supposed to be player from the last 10 years to make U THINK HARD. Going back to Glory Years players is too easy. Plus, BigWindy set the original parameters

I respect your opinion, but Shockey was different. He blocked to clear the entire side, and was such a threat, not to mention his attitude personified those Canes teams.

[raizecane]

Solar, my choice would also be Rohan. That dude had no fear in him.

[Herbieibis]

Kirby Freeman was the absolute worst QB. We've ever had. Hell he makes Rosey look like an all American.
Cameron Underwood for SBNation, really hammers home all the points we have made here on the blog.
Saying Richt needs to go find a spread QB.
Get a. O-Line coach.
Say so long to his son.
Blake James needs to help him make his mind up.
This needs to be done quick before the sun sets on our ass and this 2019 class, which sits at 22 drops to even lower depths and if this happens will be seeing the one thing I hate worse (under the radar)! We don't need no dam under the radar crewts.
It's obvious these linemen or should I say most are not pro style blockers, these QB's are not pro style QB's. To run a spread, we don't have anyone on staff who coaches it. We also don't have a college able punter.
It will be an absolute grind for us to win any of our remaining games, no matter how good our defense is.
We got Tech next and don't care how good we are on defense Tech will probably get at least 200 yds on the ground and that's a bad day for them.
We have no QB this cycle.
We have no RB this cycle.
One WR.
One TE, that is midget sized at 6'1.5.
2 O-Line, one of which will probably flip to Auburn.
What momentum we had and the excitement have all but faded. Unless some miracle happens we are in big trouble on the offensive side with this recruiting class and the worst of it is we still don't have but 2 players that are maybe true tackles and one of them Tarquin ain't here yet.

[raizecane]

Don't look now but we just shanked another punt.

[solarcane]

VA
I would take Rohan over any Cane ever for heart. I thought we had to pick guys from the last 10 years

My favorite two guys to watch,
Rohan
Morgan
Neither ever took a play off no matter how bad they were hurting.
Morgan was going to go back in the game and play barefoot one time.
Who does that now?

[TruCane81]

No, it's on the players they inherited that are still playing like trash four and five years into their football failures on campus. The game is still predominantly what did you recruit five, four and three recruiting classes ago and how are they deployed? Smart Mark isn't holding the bag for two thirds of that, yet . . .

We still have a lot more talent than those teams... so that's on the coaches!

I agree Solar....I cannot take much more of the bombardment....Im sending my hit squad out of my foxhole everywhere...sic Rohan to deliver tatumizers on all politicians everywhere....wish they all would caporize and go away...hate them all all parties!!!!

Im a cheater.....cannot think of any offensive guy i would think could man up in the foxhole last 10...damn thats limited

As I said I cheat...pound for pound....give me Rohan....he would kill anybody!!!!!!

I am in NO WAY trying to give CMR a pass, but this offense sure does miss Berrios and a healthy AR82

I would go Bosher and Berrios

What would we give to have Bosher and Badgley on special teams about now?

[Go Canes!!]

Posted by: 86Cane | November 06, 2018 at 05:41 PM

Let me see:

I've said CMR needs to give up play calling and hire a new OC and his son needs to be replaced.

I've said Malik is the worst QB we may have ever had here and from the outside Perry looks like a total knucklehead.

I've said the O line play is terrible. It's short on talent and very poorly coached.

How does that differ from anyone else here?

Maybe you and some others should take a look in a mirror.

If you haven't noticed I've seen Solar post a ton of thought provoking stuff about us, the big 3 and college football in general.

At this point I usually avoid responding because anything said is turned by a select few into "Blaming the players", " You secretly love Richt" or the classic "Breaking out the excuse machine"

Go back to a blog form 7-8 years ago. There was a ton of great interaction about all different topics by dozens of posters.

Grow up WW. The made up Twitter accusations, twisting things beyond comprehension, flat out lying. Why?

You don't even know what you are arguing about anymore.

I know reality hasn't set in for most. Denial is the most common human response.

It's hoops season. We're a basketball school now. I'm ready to watch Coach L and Dewan do their thing. How about yall???

[DallasTX Cane]

Let me put it this way - If I had to go to war with one Canes offensive player over the last ten years, I would want Herndon in that foxhole with me.

Posted by: BigWindyCane1 | November 06, 2018 at 04:32 PM

So. Maybe here’s a way to distract from the infantile back-n-forth of who said what and who’s a better fan, yada yada, plus the endless regurgitation that we wanted Butch and the AWfense suks as do the coaches.... got the message! LOL.

BigWindyCane1 says Herndon in the foxhole.

I say I want Lamar The Truth in my foxhole. Grit. Determination. Team.

Which Cane player from the LAST TEN YEARS ONLY - from the Offense - Do U want in YOUR foxhole??

[BigWindyCane1]

No offense to all the great TEs that have come through Coral Gables, but in my view, Herndon is the one TE who I would keep a tape of and show every new freshman TE.

When you look at his blocking and route-running, Herndon played the TE position better than almost anyone I have seen play live. Njoku was good, but he couldn't block. Jordan is talented, but he is not a good blocker and I don't think he knows where to be on certain plays. Herndon knew the playbook and he knew his assignments. Herndon also knew other players assignments, and how to make adjustments during the play. Herndon made winning plays, whether catching, or blocking.

Let me put it this way - If I had to go to war with one Canes offensive player over the last ten years, I would want Herndon in that foxhole with me.

Dude I agree that these schools...and a lot of others are getting talent, some hidden talent like we used to get... but you still coach guys to be better.
I am talking about our sloppy techniques, apathy, bad stances..our lines suck, poor use of hands, cover technique...Fundamentals most kids do not have or are developed wrong ......on and on...you may have great talent coming from HS, but you also have bad habits that have to be curbed and relearned. Look at Saban and Urban....they get good talent but they have great staffs, agendas, and systems that mold good to great.....its a combination of both of these aspects.

[Go Canes!!]

Posted by: Gin & Tonic | November 06, 2018 at 02:15 PM

Defensively Willis has been the biggest 1st year impact player we’ve ever had.

Offensively think Jordan is more talented that Herndon but a lot more raw.

Can’t really think of any others. Defensively we’re so stacked it’s impossible for a young kid to get reps. Offensively, this play calling and horrid QB play stifles any breakout talent from shining through.

[Gin & Tonic]

Posted by: His Majesty The Dude on High | November 06, 2018 at 01:43 PM

Scroll all you like. Sometimes it's easier than reading comprehension.

Bloggers are claiming that this year's team is more talented than last year's team and I'm simply asking where this additional talent is?

[solarcane]

So this is where the Swag went

It’s the opposite of 2017’s results, where the Wolverines would play stellar defense, but find a way to lose with an offense that couldn’t sustain drives.

Now that the offense is clicking, players are out there having fun, and it shows. Just like those Miami teams did, there’s a level of trolling, taunting, and overall dismissal of what the opposition does that’s good coming into games like the three the Wolverines just played.

[Go Canes!!]

Posted by: WWIN | November 06, 2018 at 01:34 PM

I don’t have a poll on Twitter.

And I’d love to know what “My narrative” is.

[mi@mic@ne]

If the offense would have been successful in moving the ball and scoring points then the entire team would get to the next level. But failure breeds a loss of desire and now it has spread thru the whole team. Rich needs to make the right choices ..not only bringing a spread guy but a guy who fits in with the coaching staff. We got to have a good qb...its like 70 percent of the success.

[His Majesty The Dude on High]

Posted by: Gin & Tonic | November 06, 2018 at 10:43 AM

LOL, okay then...

VA, BC & Duke are all bringing better quality talent then. Coaching em up has nothing to do with it then. You just have to find all the gems that VA, BC & Duke are finding. You are quickly reaching scroll over opinion status.

We can argue and discuss 24/7
Bottom line:
We are losing recruits
We can’t get elite recruits (far and few between)
We are losing Games to inferior foes
We are losing games to better teams (should win some of these)
We are NO fun to watch
We are losing the fan base

[CGNC]

I don't think Empanada Mark is WORSE than Golden, he is the offensive version unless he makes some changes, and soon.

He should have hired an OC or at least kept James Coley. Coley was fairly good at recruiting I think?

The worst part of this whole thing is the contract extension. 2023. Blake James should be fired.

[WWIN]

So someone on Twitter goes by the name 'gocanes'... talking points are... it's the players, talent, QB, and keeps talking about how good Kaaya and the offense did the end of the 2016 season... but we're not suppose to believe it's this Go Canes on here??? What are the odds?

1. No reason to bring it up then.

2. Virginia's QB is NOT better than our QB's... he just has a better OC!

3. Richard's didn't play last year, Herndon was rarely targeted when he was healthy, Walton didn't play last year, Berrios is the only player you can use.

[Go Canes!!]

It’s not one thing or another, it’s all of it.

[Herbieibis]

Say it again Dude, we have more talent, of the blue Chip variety than those 3 teams combined.
The Herb ain't going to sit here and sugar coat our problems.
When u have problems, then start trying to solve them thru recruiting and coaching them up.
Look at the defense, 7 or 8 that are starting are Golden's boys. At the start of the year we had 5 on offense that we're Golden boys.
The difference between Deno and Diaz is night and day as far as the Dee goes.
The offense was better with Coley calling plays.
Except for Richt there is nobody with alot of experience calling plays.
We are stuck.
Golden wouldn't fire anybody that was one of his biggest problems. The question still to be answered will Richt fire anyone on the offensive side of the ball. If he doesn't then somebody needs to tell him either u do it OR else.

[Gin & Tonic]

Posted by: His Majesty The Dude on High | November 06, 2018 at 10:14 AM

LOL, you looking at talent on paper? Based on high-school recruiting reports?

I'm looking for talent on the field.

[His Majesty The Dude on High]

QB: Perry was 3rd highest rated QB coming out of HS, Rosier is 5th year SR, theres your talent or experience right there, take your pick.
RB: Miami has many more top level recruits than UVA, BC or Duke.
WR: Same as RB except even more talented and highly touted.
TE: Brevin Jordan
OL: We have an absolute failure, but still have more blue chip talent than than all 3 teams. We havent recruited a starting caliber OT since Richt started.

Overall: We probably have more blue chip talent than all 3 of those rosters combined.

[His Majesty The Dude on High]

Posted by: WWIN | November 06, 2018 at 09:44 AM

If Mark Richt cant put a coherent O together because young players, then perhaps he should move on to the NFL because thats the name of the game in CF. We dont need seniors and 5*s to beat Duke, BC & VA, I believe so many people are still making excuses for this awefense.

[Gin & Tonic]

Posted by: WWIN | November 06, 2018 at 09:44 AM

1) Never said error free, just pointed out (only 2) of many examples of players hurting the offense.

2) Our qb's sucked more than UVA's.

3) More talent, but at which positions. QB = same, O-line lost experienced players, skill positions lost Herndon, Berrios, Walton. Lost Ahman Richards. Where is "TALENT" to replace these losses?

[WWIN]

Posted by: Gin & Tonic | November 06, 2018 at 06:28 AM

You should NOT have to play error free ball to beat DUKE!

Take Virginia... their QB had 92yds 3ints and still beat us!

We are NOT the only team in the country playing young players. We have more talent this year than last year!

[AeroCane]

VA - great post but I feel it starts at the top and don’t feel richt has the energy or edge anymore (assuming hebever had it)

[86Cane]

Please God don't let us go three and out AGAIN!

[raizecane]

Jon Beason calling out current players.....says some look like they have given up.

[VA Cane]

I agree G&T there are young kids playing and making mistakes....I am coaching teens and college and my guys make errors as well. Wht do i do? My job...i coach hard as hell 110%!

Bringing back Butch or firing CMR may sound pc...but is not practical.
I DO expect CMR to make some changes...like getting a young dynamic OC who can run pro set and spread....for him to stop calling plays...he is not good..get rid of the nepotism using his son, upgrade some coaches....AND all of them need to coach instead of walking around like everything is ok ...it is not.
You have kids making mistakes you get off your butt and coach them up ...its your job....thats my take.

[Gin & Tonic]

# 55 on the o-line (sophomore) made multiple mistakes at critical times allowing sacks and tackles for loss

#13 half back (sophomore) fumbled twice, one immediately after Miami intercepted duke to set up good field position

Is pointing out the obvious, that these talented but inexperienced players played poorly and directly contributed to the offensive struggles, making excuses for cmr??

I understand that some on here don’t have the ability to do anything but type bring back butch or fire Richt immediately.

But come on, watch the games, our offense is young, with no qb play, trying to get up power 5 speed. The kids have to execute better.

The team can’t block, qb’s take forever to read defense, then accuracy is an issue when the receiver and tight ends run the correct route. And we have people wondering why we can only use one page of the playbook.

[TonyCane]

Decommitted

[TonyCane]

Half of those recruits would have recommitted anyway. We lost recruits after we started out 10-0. Losing makes it easier, but we could be undefeated and Ohio State still would have flipped that running back.

[Herbieibis]

WELDON OUT OF THE DOG HOUSE TO SAVE US. Oops I forgot our losing streaks come in 4's. Got one more week to go before this comes to an end, plus we suck to the ever loving high heavens on the road.

[Herbieibis]

Dam, say it ain't so, we've got another road. Nothing like being served up to the hecklers. Tech's Dee Coordinator gets the week off, saying he'll let his underlings take care of his lite work. Not much work needed to stop Da U. Just stack 8 men in the box on the first 2 plays they run and they will be running plays and on third and 8 will play 2 deep safties, when they try and throw a go route, which will be under thrown. On 4th down they will have to try and punt and that's about all u can call it because we should get the ball around midfield, after a 35 yd. Punt. That's the blue print he left his guys to follow.

So filtering out the highest scoring game in the first eight contests of each season (goodbye Savannah State results), we find that Miami's offense is the lowest scoring since 2012, and almost the worst since 2007.

This is worse than Golden... I cant believe Im saying that... Mark Richt is worse than Al Golden... Death rattle.

I was 16 when I became a Hurricanes fan... I flirted with USC during the Golden years... I can not tolerate Miami's administration sitting on its hands watching the football team burn to the ground. People should be losing their jobs but the fact is that the only people who care, are the fans. Death rattle.

Ivins says Eguakun likely already done and is going to Auburn.

P.S. Neal is going to Bama, Miami is out, but we knew that.

Miami has 3 awfense croots, 1 looking to decommit for Florida. This is worse than Golden... I cant believe Im saying that... Mark Richt is worse than Al Golden... Death rattle.

Miami awfensive recruits for 2019

**** WR Payton
*** TE Hodges
**** OL Tarquin (Could decomitt to FU)
*** OL Eguakun (Could decomitt to Aub)

Next week we'll have 2 croots for awfense. Cant wait to see how that plays out. Great job managing this situation Miami.

The sad thing is who else on this team is capable to call plays. Richt surrounded himself with a bunch of yes men who would dare question hi authority of posted no danger of taking his job.
We lost Nunn. That's sad, pried him away from the Cuse o only to have him dump us. No big deal. Just another 3 star, they come a dime a dozen!

[His Majesty The Dude on High]

We lost Nunn today. Who decommits tomorrow? Tarquin or perhaps the other OL?

Its a good thing our leadership has said nothing to address the issue, and are "letting things play out." That shows true leadership.

P.S. dont ever take any courses in crises management or public relations at Miami, they clearly dont know what the f*ck they are doing.

Better go check on your excuse machines
