Dude talking about developing and taking transfers when Miami has 10 for 2024 and UCF has 19. Lol.
Didn’t Miami have 1! ONE guy drafted in the first 5 rounds… talk about development lmfao
Also serious question. Why does Miami constantly have top recruiting classes and still suck? This has been going on for the last 20 years…
No, it has not. You UCF fans know nothing about recruiting and less about college football.
6-7…3-7 vs the P5. Malzon going to his fourth year having three players drafted TOTAL in three drafts including a guy that did not play a snap for him.
Now keep getting suckered by his “booms”…where are the O-Line and WR transfers? Another DB about to commit? Lol.
Won't come until AFTER 11:59 a.m. Tuesday, April 30, 2024.
I hope so. All these knot heads talking about "stopping the run" in the spring, but pass defense will be a premium next fall.
I see Bozo Cane has infected another thread. Fact is, NO ONE underperforms quite like the U.
In 2023 Miami finished in 9th place in the ACC, behind Duke and Georgia Tech.
In 2022 Miami finished in 5th place in the ACC Coastal (the division that does not even have the ACC's top 2 teams...Clemson and FSU) again behind Duke and Georgia Tech.
Miami is 1-8 in bowl games since the 2013 season.
Since 2013, UCF has played in three times as many BCS/NY6 Bowls as Miamiand UCF has WON twice as many BCS/NY6 games as Miami has even PLAYED in (that they LOST).
In their last three bowl games, Miami has lost to G5 Louisiana Tech, Rutgers (one of the worst P5 teams over the last decade) and Oklahoma state of the B12.
During that same span, the u has 10 consecutive National Championships during the winter, spring, and summer seasons.
And don't forget one of the biggest all-time UM gems vs. Georgia Tech!

Predicting Miami Hurricanes 2024 season wins, losses after transfer portal surge
Recent commitments spark high-end expectations for the Hurricanes.
Brad Crawford
at USF, Sept. 21 (Loss, 3-1) USF is a team to watch here given the strides the Bulls should make in Year 2 under former Tennessee offensive mastermind Alex Golesh. He signed the Group of Five's top class and gets his play-making quarterback another year. It's hard to imagine Miami going the road and coming away with wins against Florida and USF in September, so project a split there. Two weeks prior to this game, USF travels to Alabama, so the Bulls will be a rare Group of Five team that's already battle-tested early with their proverbial backs against the wall.

Greg McElroy is a clown with an intense hatred of UCF. Harvey is better than half of that list.
Miami will be long gone from that Top 25 list by the end of September...just like they always are. 🤣
Beware The "Factor Back"
1. RB Peny Boone is an impact player for UCF
Farrell’s take: FACT
Boone bounces around, so that’s a criticism as he has gone from Maryland to Toledo to Louisville and now UCF, but we all know Gus Malzahn loves to run the ball, and he’s going to be a great complement to RJ Harvey. This kid had 1,400 yards last season and can be elite if he’s focused.
Fear is going to be a Factor for the Big 12.

Lol. Only one ball. Having an army of RBs does little good unless a guy gets injured. UCF should have spent Boone’s NIL on viable guys for the OL. Dumb, unnecessary move.
Something UCF fans need to UNDERSTAND: filling your roster with DBs, RBs and QBs when the team needs are OL and WR accomplishes NOTHING. The transfer class numbers and related rankings mean NOTHING when the needs are ignored and not addressed.
Keep falling for the Malzahn hype tho. Understand that the Orlando media is weak and they will never ask any though questions of or challenge Gus Malzahn in any way.

Between pizza deliveries.
Dude is comparing his team, who won Nattys over 2 decades ago - to a team that is still in the transition to P4. He posts more on a site of a team that he thinks is beneath him and doesn't even play just so he can feel better about himself. For all the talent that UM pulls in, they haven't won a conference title since 2003 - the Big East days - which is after freshman were born. That should tell you all you need to know about the U - and I grew up going to the Orange Bowl on Saturdays for UM and Sundays for the Dolphins. Then I actually went to school - wish I could say the same for most Canes fans lately.
You should be thankful that I am here providing knowledge and schooling you fans. None of you know ball. Zero of you.
Cristalball and Malzahn suck and will lose games they have no business losing. Super Mario has lost 2 games he could have won by taking a knee. And still getting paid millions. Hilarious.
You lost yo mind! Gus ain't done getting RBs in this portal cycle.
He plucking 'em straight out of middle school now.

I’d say that from an MSU standpoint, the only one that hurt us was Harmon. It was the DTs where we cared about losing players and Harmon was our best. Barrow was a decent player, but constantly injured. Everyone else MSU lost was not a real impact player. Since this article was written, MSU added two more dlinemen.
Great descriptors. Cancer (with full metastasis) and Massengill are also highly and perfectly applicable.Everything you say is
From The Athletic
"It’s become the go-to line of critics whenever Mario Cristobal and Miami have enjoyed an off-the-field victory since the season ended in December.
It’s usually some variation of the following:
Sure, the guy just signed another top-10 recruiting class, but who cares if he can’t even take a knee?
Or …
Yes, they landed one of the best quarterbacks in the transfer portal, but Cristobal lost six games in two seasons with Justin Herbert as his QB at Oregon."
...
"Still, we all can agree there are plenty of reasons not to believe in Miami. Let’s take a look at some history:
• Cristobal is 74-73 as a head coach and 12-13 at Miami. That’s the definition of mid.
• Miami has had one 10-win season since the late Sean Taylor led them to their last major bowl victory in 2003.
• Miami has recruited top-20 talent for the better part of the last 15 years and badly underperformed. The program signed on average the 17th-best recruiting class from 2009 to 2019 yet finished a season ranked in the final AP Top 25 poll only three times with those classes composing the core of the roster.
• Of the 25 players to leave the program via the portal since the end of the season, 18 were brought in by Cristobal in the last two years and not by predecessor Manny Diaz. So math tells us there will be more misses by Cristobal among the 13 transfers and 27 high school recruits he’s added to the roster.'

Navarro: Miami's roster is set up for success — it's time for the Canes, and their coach, to deliver
It's time to stop celebrating offseason championships. Miami needs to win on the field in 2024.

All of this just proves how hypocritical Bozo Knight is with his posts. 🤣
Weird that Dillion Gabriel is at the top of this list? Weird that UCF’s “SEC Trigger Man” is nowhere to be found? QBs that leave Gus Malzahn prosper.
Gus Malzon bringing in two transfer RBs so they can sit on the bench. Dude burning NIL on a squad of DBs, RBs and QBs. Not developing his own OL, TE or WR. So he doesn’t plan on playing the incoming freshmen RB? They’ll transfer in December if only the transfers get burn.
And, where’s the beef? Where are the VIABLE OL and TE 2024 transfers. Miami:
