    They lost to Harvard in basketball, in case you were thinking football.

    You didnt tell me a damn thing that you knew as fact. So stop trying to say you knew.


    WE ALL HEAR THE SAME RUMORS AS YOU DO!

    This is OT, but fact: Les Miles will NEVER be the HC at UM, Lloyd Carr has blackballed him due to some extra curricular activities

    The media made up all those rumors about Miles to Michigan because Les Miles is a Michigan alum. Pretty much my point. It was all bs, just like this Al Golden to PSU stuff.

    Math has nothing to do with it. You do know that he could still leave right? All the extension does is insure a larger buyout.

    But go ahead man. Keep acting like you know it all.

    The media did not make up the Penn State rumors. Golden said a long time ago that it would be a dream job as would Miami.

    Cannot believe it has been over 3 yrs since Sean Taylor was murdered.

    Murdered right down the street from my house. My friend was his godfather so to speak.

    Streeter is leaning towards going pro. His dad wants him to stay, though. Btw, he is graduating in a few weeks.

    Hope he got a first round grade from somewhere. Next season, he would be a first rounder for sure if he avoids injury.

    Losing him will be hard on the Canes but after not playing for almost his entire time here, I dont blame him

    Lamar should leave as well, if he has a good draft grade he should take the $$$ as he has nothing left to gain and much to lose by coming back to play in 2012.

    We were what 6-6 with him, good luck to him, but no one on this squad is that important imo.

    Lamar will go no lower than the 2nd. He will tear up the combine.

    Yep, and for a Rb, it makes no difference when they come out, as a redshirt Sophomore or Senior, they are as good as they will be in college.

    So it makes no sense to stay, he will blow up the combine, his burst is amazing, Javhad Best like, maybe better

    Sucks that Tommy Streeter is leaving. Marcus Forston, good ****ing riddance.
     
  18. Ozzy

    Ozzy Premium Member Luxury Box

    Um, he and Lamar were the main reasons they got 6 wins. What do you want them to do? Go 1-10 next year?


    They were very important to the team but if they go i wish them well. Especially Streeter, who was in Shannons dog house because Shannon was too stubborn to help the kid.

    #Norland's Duke Johnson had 6 runs over 25 yards Friday: 49, 67 (TD), 32 (TD), 71 (TD), 25, 33. He had 98 yards on his other 21 touches

    And a 50 yard TD called back. And that 32 yard TD came on one shoe. 27 carries, 375 yards. Anyone who says Duke Johnson isn't the best recruit in Florida needs to have their head examined. Any recruiting website that doesn't have him as a 5 star needs to be shut down. I could give 2 ****s if Miller leaves for the NFL. Duke Johnson, 2012 Freshman of the Year. Take that **** to the bank.

    He needs 25 pounds added to his frame or he may not last a season. He damn sure is a special talent though.

    Lets hope keeping the strength coach was a good choice because I've been unimpressed for a few years.

    I've been unimpressed as well. But I do think it's a valid point that the head coach is the one that sets up how he wants the strength and conditioning to be run. As for Duke, if LaMichael James/Dexter McCluster can go without injury, so can he. It's hard to get injured when nobody can get close enough to tackle you :shifty:

    Being 212 doesn't really help Miller avoid injuries.
     
  25. Ozzy

    Ozzy Premium Member Luxury Box

    Being 212 helps him for sure. He is not a player that likes to get hit but yet he sticks his nose inbetween the tackles alot. Yes, the plays call for him to run up the middle a lot but If he was 180 pounds, he would be dead doing that.

    Johnson is more of an elusive back. Lamar is a cut an go runner.

    Dont you mean someone tell the offensive line to open some holes so he can cut and go? That big ol line gets pushed back more than I've ever seen a HUGE line get pushed.

    The last few games the o-line did look like crap, but Miller got more hesitant as well. Early in the year he was able to extend plays and make something out of nothing. It seems like injuries and fatigue got to him.


    And if we ever run a stretch play again, I'll kill something.

    OL wasn't that good, but Lamar was still a dancing queen out there. Absolutely soft the second half of the season. There were tons of times where he could of had good yardage had he just cut and go instead of trying to do too much.
     
  31. Ozzy

    Ozzy Premium Member Luxury Box

    I don't agree with tons but yes, he did dance too much at times. He does not like hard contact. You could see him take a whack then become hesitant the next time he touched the ball. He has good vision but when he knew he did not have a hole, he was looking for an out.

    I don't expect him back but had he, he may have had one hellava season with the correct conditioning.

    I dunno, I thought his vision was real good in the first half. Was physical even. Just didn't seem that way the second half of the season. Maybe the shoulder injury had something to do with it.

    His shoulder is probably why he will enter the draft.

    BREAKING: Miami RB Lamar Miller is leaving early for the NFL draft, per a source.

    I really hope the Pats don't pick him up somehow. But good for him.

    It's a good decision for him. For a guy who gets nicked up a lot, better get to the NFL and get that money quick. As for us, Duke Johnson, Freshman All American, calling it now.

    Miller seems like a guy who’ll go #32 overall to the Packers.

    Just saw Ray Ray is coming back. Count me as a Meh for that news. I had high hopes for him.

    Sebastian the Ibis has decided to forgo another season, and will now enter his name in the NFL draft.
