Things getting Creepy
I'm not going to dig it up but even the Portland radio shows have been laughing at how Beck has blown his money on cars that have gotten jacked down there.
So, is Cristobol's offense just so hard on a QB that he absolutely needs a high level quarterback to succeed? Because if you look at his track record at Oregon, that seems to be the case.
Anyways I hope Miami succeeds this year. Became a fan after what they did to Cal last year.

I would say at Oregon, whatever success he has wasn’t due to high level QB play. Their best year with Cristi was when they had the running game going. When Verdel was healthy was when they were good. The passing game while Cristo was there wasn’t ever that great, even with Herbert. And the next guy was terrible.
At Miami he has been not good at anything. -
What a dummy if he burned through his NIL money. A Latina is always an upgrade in my experience!
-
I don't see Beck doing anything at Miami and will likely go undrafted. Another 5*, or whatever, bites the dust.
-
I am really interested to see how they do this year. Last year kind of felt like their shot to sneak into the playoff.
-
Yeah, they had a decent path in. The inexplicable losses are the thing. The back to backs against Georgia Tech lost it for me, especially the way they happened. They play Notre Dame and Florida at home. If they beat one of them, I'll be pleased. If both, I'll be happy. I don't care about the rest of the games. They are not going to win a natty with Beck and that defense can't stop anybody when it matters.

I just watched the Catholics vs convicts 30 for 30 the other week. Hilarious call on that Cleveland Gary fumble. As much as people complain about replay the sport is better because of it.
-
Lolz. I hate Notre Dame appreciably less now than before I took my walks on the beach. But that call is on the Mount Rushmore of "the fix is on" conspiracy theories. There wasn't an ND defender within a mile of Gary and the ball comes out like 5 fucking hours after he hit the ground.
I think I hated, and still hate, Lou Holtz more than Notre Dame. After he left, the hate came down a couple notches.
The story of that era is simple: some of ND's most storied teams squeaked by the Canes in South Bend and got Bendover in Miami. I'll take it. -

Looks like a great catch to me. Let me know if you have another angle that shows otherwise.
My guy either had the ground cause a fumble on the 1 or he scored. There is no other possibility.
Bad comparison Duck

They are BACK Florida edition
Noles beat Bama and Canes beat Notre Dame. Cristobal remains mystified by clock management

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. @Gladstone
On the positive side, Crisco continues to show the ability to bring in talent and build an O line, if one assumes the hype about ND's d line. Regardless, Miami's O line pushed the ND front around. Actually, the D line controlled as well. I'll take that for as long as it lasts.
And once again, Crisco's inimitable (except so many other coaches share this trait) gift for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory was on full display. There is just something in his coaching DNA that causes his teams to lift their foot from the throat. They should have won that game easily. You come out of the half and go up two scores after eating up more than half of the 3rd Q, D holds and you're at 3rd and 1 and don't convert and have to punt. And then a 3 and out. And another. And another.
Something about him does this again and again and again. Script says when you control both lines of scrimmage, as they clearly did, and your QB isn't a retard, which Toothy didn't appear to be, you win going away.
Anyway, ND isn't the test. Miami isn't afraid of ND (like some other programs I know, [cough cough]). Georgia Tech and, apparently, Syracuse are scary.

was really surprised that Miami dominated up front on both sides. OL less so, Mario is always gonna be great there. But the DL dominated, too.

Irvin has been clean for a good while and has been taking care of his wife, who has dementia. He's also always been a massive and consistent supporter of his alma mater, through thick and thin. Whatever else is wrong at Miami, Michael Irvin isn't an issue.
That clip, btw, is of him after back to back sacks to close out the game. Any program should be so lucky to have a HOF'mer give that much of a shit about its program but few do.
-
I was too. They had some good D linemen in the rotation last year, but once one or two got injured they were exposed. The key for them will be if he really did something to address the D backfield, which was historically atrocious last year. They looked better but we don't know anything about CJ Carr or their passing game yet. If they are even 75% as bad as they were last year, it's going to be another long season.

tf are you talking about? Why are you posting a screenshot from a different game?
-
The Andre Brown catch and the Cleveland Gary non-fumble fumble were both in the 1988 "Catholics vs. Convicts" game. Same game.
Irish fans frequently trot out the "what about the Andre Brown catch?" nonsense and have polluted youtube and social media with it even though there is no angle showing it to not be a catch and the ref was standing right in a position to make the call. They don't, however, trot out the Cleveland Gary clip because it was such a shitty call.

Sounds like Mario needs @TheChart

Anyone who knows, knows. Hell of a man
-
Yup. Lived through it with my FIL. It breaks you.
-
I wonder how cristoballz wife is doing…

The Throbber just likes yanking @creepycoug ’s Cane chain.

It was hard enough going through that with my grandma. I can’t imagine what it’s like going through that with your spouse, especially so young. Heartbreaking.
