You Can't Always Get What You Want

But if you try sometimes, you get what you need...

Or so goes the Rolling Stones song about life and college football recruiting.

Your University of Miami Hurricanes did not get every player they wanted on the early signing date for the 2021 class but they got what they needed. And that is all we can ask after the negative finish to the 2020 season.

Manny Diaz and his merry men did better than expected on early NSD 2021 by landing several of their top priorities. This included QB Jake Garcia, Leonard Talyor and James Williams. And to that they added a bunch more 4* players.

Life is apparently very, very good in Coral Gables.

On a side note...today I am celebrating 30 years of marriage to Mrs. 86, Maria Vazquez Popadak. Not quite sure how she has put up with me and this blog for so long but somehow she has. God bless her!

Well I guess The King is playing.
Oak. St might run for half a grand because that is their forte and u know with Roche and Phillip's not playing they will try to abuse the green horns. Didn't matter of course who played against UNC they got abused.
Minus 3 starters & Baker coaching for his job, I like the Pokes 34-24. I watched them a couple times, their defense is pretty good. The QB is erratic sometimes but that only means, he'll be superstar against us, as we have a habit of bring out the best in QB'S who are average or green.

Huh, I have it going down as 34-13 Canes.

[Harry Miller]

I do not expect the Canes to win. They have a knack for for letting us down. 34-13 Oklahoma.

Yes. Over the years we have found a WAY to create Heisman candidates out of Freshmen or backup QBs.😭😭😖😤

Didn't OK State's best player, running back Chuba Hubbard, opt out of the game?

[roachcane77]

Yup... NO Chuba:

Hubbard has been battling an ankle injury for much of the season. He missed the last three games and only had 14 carries for the entire month of November.

“As I rebound from this injury, I have decided to begin my preparations for the 2021 NFL Draft,” Hubbard said in his statement. “Thank you Oklahoma State for helping turn my childhood dream into a reality. The journey continues!”

Dam Soup, 30 years of Marriage? U must of got married straight out of high school. Anyway congratulations.
I tried marriage once. Thought I did it the right way. Dated a year, lived together for a year, then the third year got married. It lasted 2.5 years and she had to go, her and those 2 rug rats I inherited.
Waited till I was 42 to try it out.

Congrats to 86 and Mrs. 86!

UNC going to the Orange Bowl and playing Texas A & M. I think Jimbo takes Mack to the woodshed

[The Toast Of The Coast]

CGNC,
Not so fast young lady.
A&M is no juggernaut offensively. Mond is not a great passer or should I say streaky.
UNC'S offense is for real, 770 yards of total Oh good, no but they will put points up. For A&M to win, they need to score in the upper 30's maybe low 40's to win. UNC scores less than 30 their toast.

[CaneWarrior]

Congrats Tom and especially Mrs. 86
Well done and may you both have many more to go!

[Harry Miller]

Congrats Tom & Mrs. 86. I was with my wife for 45 yrs. when she passed. Looks like you are well on your way. Loved every minute of those years.

Wishing All U Maniacs A Merry Christmas!
