Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
...have clearly dropped football. They don't pass the eye test anymore. So they've stopped buying local talent and building better players through chemistry. Guys aren't "doing what it takes" anymore.
Sad really. RIP The U
Funny how Free Shoes now looks like Miami used to

Different era I guess. There's no going home is there? I don't think the U can keep the critical mass of kids they used to. There are a dozen local kids who helped beat them tonight who would have been Hurricanes 20 years ago ... now they're going to fucking Louisville. Louisville! Back in the day there were no Louisvilles, the SEC wasn't the pumped up whore it is now so going to LSU and Georgia back then wasn't as compelling as it is now, nobody ever left Florida for USC or UCLA, blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda.
That said, it's not like they don't have good players. All their linemen were highly recruited, Erick Flowers for one will be a beast in the NFL, they sign a fucking running back every fucking year that everybody else wants, Stacy Coley is John Ross, they have a ton of real, not imagined, talent in the D backfield, Perryman is a beast and will continue the Linebacker U tradition in the NFL ... Kaaya looks like he has the goods. I don't fucking know what the issue is really. D line maybe still average ... I like Olsen Pierre but otherwise their D line doesn't really have any stars, though they played pretty well tonight. Their defense has been as easy as a french whore for a few years now, and they finally show up and play a game and their offense can't finish a fucking drive to save their lives.
You tell me man, I just don't fucking know. I think they're going find out that Golden is like a buttoned up, east coast version of Dude brah. Only he won a little at Temple, which is more than Dude brah has ever done on his own. But that little distinction notwithstanding, Golden doesn't appear to be the guy. Fuck.
Side note: has any coach anywhere ever amassed talent like Davis did from about 1998 through 2000? Go through those rosters some time. Not the best game day guy, but the fucker could spot and recruit talent like nobody.
They fucked up hiring Randy Shannon. He was the DC of the head coach (Coker) who got fired. Al Golden is only marginally better. A great coach would destroy down there, but it's basically a dead program at this point. If they were smart they would fire Golden, but they will let him win his 7-9 games every year and accept it.
RIP to the U
Obligatory in all threads about Miami:

He should have been on the Cane sideline.
We'll see when Louisville plays FSU how good they are. Miami just didn't look like Miami.
1) I actually like Miami's uniforms and wish our AD would force the pool boy to come up with stuff like that in purple and gold
2) Al Golden looks like he bought his clothes at the campus bookstore at the last minute while on his way to an alumni wine and cheese party as a member of the Oozma Kappas.
