Defense doesn't look nearly as bad as these queens like Navarro and Barry Jackson are saying. Dortch wasn't beat twice at all, but great placement and velocity on backshoulder TDs was why Orange scored. Olsen Pierre and Grimble getting some disruption there. Gunter making some great plays. Howard "beat" for a td? Right. Guy had less than a step on him, just great offensive execution. Honestly think the defense is clearly better than last year.

Last!

Also, please relegate Gaines to special teams only. Thx in advance.

Good fans showing. Put together a strong atmosphere for a couple of recruits. Love it.

I think we can at least all agree that Jedd Fisch's offense has potential to be lights out at some point but is regressing right now, right? As compared to Nix et al who showed no such potential that I can ever recall believing in.

Is our team really that bad that we have to resort to talking about these idiots? Posted by: LB | October 17, 2012 at 03:45 PM Hahah well said. And I testify in front of the state leg tomorrow. (Don't ask) Back to the truly entertaining stuff: I'd say Offense: Morris Defense: EJ44 (True) Freshman: Duke Johnson Coach: Art

Love your posts TonyCane. Love that stuff.

God, some of PC's comments are really infuriating. "Miami fans need to come to the realization that we are no longer in the 80’s. The years of being a perennial powerhouse are far and away in the rear-view mirror." NO WAY. WE DID NOT. KNOW. THAT. What we want to see is progress at the individual level, and guys getting confused / lost 24/7 just ain't it. Though 2nd half of last week gave glimmers of hope.

Golden said Jimmy Gaines looked good in practice today, might be ahead in race for starting MLB job Uhhh, what? Posted by: Ohio_Cane | October 16, 2012 at 12:47 PM Said it every time he was on the field last year, and I'll say it again: I have no idea why this guy looks good to them. I guess it's a relative thing; even still, Cornelius showed a bit more upside in that GaTech game imo. (Still has his own problems) And Paul, even if he still gets lost like a freshman sporadically and doesn't wrap up at times. I saw every Carolina Panthers LB (including Beason) do that 2 weeks ago so that's forgivable. If it gets fixed.

Take for example the article I wrote above about the UNC game. The game was thoroughly depressing because it was a game we all drove HOURS to get to, thought we would win and should have won. You should be in the parking lot AFTER these losses and hear REAL lifetime UM fans who spend all their spare cash and drive hours to go to the game and hear what they say. Most of it I can't even print it here. The article I wrote is as FAIR and BALANCED as humanly possible without being pure nonsense and utter trash. To PapaCane it probably reads as pure blasphemy. That's on HIM not ME. Posted by: 86Cane | October 16, 2012 at 12:32 PM +10000000000 Love this comment.

if we're alternating between 15 yard runs and 3 yard runs, just run it Fisch. Thanks in advance.

"Ohio State late" pass intereference Manny says. I'd be humored but whatever.

Give it a rest with the circular fan firing squad LaQuinton. We're all frustrated. That's all.

I remember someone talking smack to Carroll about signing Eddie Johnson on twitter ("slow Georgian 3*" or whatever). Hilarious in retrospect.

ISU has been a decent team relative to recruiting is what I'm interested in.

Who coaches ISU? almost knocked off KSU in the Farmageddon.

Embarrassing defense. I feel dirty. 19 first downs first half.

Ouch. That's going to leave a mark. 63-15 Oklahoma over rival Texas.

I prefer the raw emotion. Signed, Someone who reconciles reactions to reality.

lost***

That Manny dropped that bomb today is just sickening. Likely planned if we won or lost. I.e. If we won, it would knock the wind straight the eff out of us. Now that we've won, it's just piling on. Also: nothing new.

Papa Cane ‏@ByPapaCane Youth and inexperience aside, there is no acceptable reason for the defense to give up so many yards every single game. Papa Cane ‏@ByPapaCane Coach Mark D'Onofrio should be on the hot seat and will have a hard time coming back unless Golden sticks his neck out for him. Enough. Papa Cane ‏@ByPapaCane Keep in mind that I am not discrediting Notre Dame's effort but I am incriminating D'Onofrio. Zero progress on defense. Reverse. Enough. ^He's defended him all year more or less, publicly.

So fisch's scheme works in first season D'no scheme works in 3+ yrs?????? Posted by: Willie Will in Nashville | October 07, 2012 at 12:21 AM Hahah well said.
