Look at what Clemson did this year. They played a very young WR group. They actually played them, let them develop on the field. They struggled in the early games, but got better week over week. Sometimes, you just need to play the people you have recruited and see what you have. Can't always say we need to get some experience out of the portal.
Can you guys update everyone on the bowl game. Who's playing who's not playing. X. Jacoby. Arroyo.? How long will Cam play.? I want to win this game. Im sick of loosing bowl games. Everything iv heard is that Iowa State is taking this game seriously.
That experience argument is weak. Prior to the portal everyone had unproven players its college 😂 If you can coach and recruit you would believe in your teaching.
Waiting for the Spring to land players is not Championship Roster Management. Landing Hill, Baron, etc in the Spring is a major reason they never acclimated into the system.
We’re taking a step back next year, we need to face facts. We couldn’t win with a mercenary roster this year and we’re nowhere near that next year and we have a much tougher schedule
There are going to be more players in the portal shortly!! Once these bowl/ playoff games are over guys that watched and didn't get much playing time will bail.
Matt. CJ Daniels had a significant heel injury yet played the whole season. Satan....I mean Brian Kelly spoke about it and praised CJs toughness and praised his locker room presence. And Kelly doesn't usually heap praises on individual players so I'm hoping that means something. We'll see. I'm expecting him to have a really good year. He had multiple big time schools wanting him still. He chose Miami to play his last year of football. His last chance to get in the NFL. I'm hoping that also means something lol. Something about our offense he saw at practice. 🤞
Gary is 💯 correct on Emory playing.Who cares if we win the dogshit bowl game when the season was a total letdown from the expectations we all had.Mario would definitely have a better idea what Emory can do to help find out what needs at the position.
Gary, why do we need more portal acquisitions after 2 top 10 recruiting classes? Didn't you guys say we needed fewer portal players and that the championship teams don't take double-digit portal players? I'm already having a portal hangover. Getting a majority of your starters from the portal isn't the answer.
I think the reason they being (selective) is getting portals is the amount of 0s. Period. But this is time for Mario's kids to step up. And I'm good with Mendoza cuz Emory needs competition which I don't think Mendoza is scared of cuz I seen rumors of him and UGA
Gary, I'm with Matt. Miss me with the Mendoza embellishments. There must have been a memo sent to all the Hurricane podcasters because they're giving the same hype as if he's an elite QB. You quoted his career stats. In 2024, Mendoza had 16 passing TDs and 6 INTs along with a QBR of 64.2. On another Hurricanes channel. The Podcaster was praising Mendoza and downing CJ Bailey. Bailey, as a true freshman, had 14 passing TDs and 9 INTs with a QBR of 62.2. There's not much difference, which leads to Matt's take of a good, but not great, QB. Secondly, whose fault is it that we don't know much about Emory's development. A piss poor job of getting the backup QB meaningful game reps. Emory needs to play in the bowl game to know whether Maimi needs a transfer QB.
Fernando Mendoza is not a Miami caliber player!! If he wasn't from Miami nobody would be mentioning him coming to Miami.. All I know is next season is Mario's 4th season, "in my opinion" he must make the playoffs!! No excuses! If not he isn't the right guy.. 12 playoff teams, HE MUST GET ONE SPOT! Now I have a question..Has Mario really made us sufficiently better than Manny, Richt, Golden??
Personally, I don't feel too confident with Mario ! His play calling in key moments has hurt this team, so his part of the foundation structure of the team! Missing heart, cojones?? Anyway, Go Canes, best in 2025
The two best teams in the ACC got crushed in the bowl playoffs when will Miami be good enough to compete in the ACC don’t understand this we have the best recruiting classes in the ACC for years now
@ you missing the point we had possibly the best Qb in Miami history and we weren’t good enough in the ACC to win the conference or represent the ACC in the playoffs and both ACC teams were beat comfortably we have problems and I truly believe coaching is the issue. We have the best recruiting classes in the ACC but we are fourth best team in a very weak conference
It was the defense, not Cam. You could sée their problems from early in the season but never made the appropriate changes. And the d coordinator was also the worst position coach..... SAFETY!?!? 🙌🏾
@canesporttv I don't understand what that has to with playing sophmores and juniors. Cfb been around over 100 yrs now we get this portal and 1st yr starters aren't allowed. Play the best guy experience has never been a requirement before the portal.
Good players are not willing to wait 3 years to play like the good old days, A better system is needed -maybe limit teams portal additions based on win lost
Kids have found out about Mario, he can’t coach… transfer portal is hurting him as a recruiter. Miami will be an average team under this leadership, sorry Gary…
Florida is all in on their Qb after one year how long Emory has been at Miami and Mario is still undecided about Emory develop the recruits you bring. This is the problem we won more games then Florida blew Florida out but it seem as if Florida program is in better place than our program coaching has to be better period
Gary??? The last 3 coaches, 3years record. Mark 26-13//manny 21-15// Mario 22-15. Do you believe this is critical year for Mario or do makes so much money we’re stuck with him
You are not stuck with Mario. He’s battling through a changing game and tirelessly working to get the program back has gone from 5 to 7 to maybe 11 wins the 2 losses weee frustrating, no argument but .. that said yes I have some concern about the roster for next season. A lot of work to do - Gary
I think that Gary is pretty hypocritical when it comes to saying let Emory play instead of cam in the bowl game... Because I remember years ago Gary complaining about top players opting out of bowl games... Lol how opinions change!
It went on the downward spiral back in the mid-2000s. It's been down the whole time except for little glimpses of hope here and there like 2017, 2023. I hope we're on upward trajectory. Definitely getting better players in the program since Mario's arrival
@ i believe Coker is a better coach than Mario Mario has had elite recruiting classes and you don’t see the team being much better this year will be huge for Mario just don’t see game planning and he lost his biggest game of the year to a first year coach who game plan against us
Look at what Clemson did this year. They played a very young WR group. They actually played them, let them develop on the field. They struggled in the early games, but got better week over week.
Sometimes, you just need to play the people you have recruited and see what you have. Can't always say we need to get some experience out of the portal.
Matt is always on point, Gary is completely lost. Mendoza would not be a good pick up.
Only for some depth
Let’s Roll with Emory✅
Get some WR’s and Fix the Defense 👌🏽
You know they got the highest rated portal class even with just 4 guys
Great to see y'all! GO CANES!!!
Can you guys update everyone on the bowl game. Who's playing who's not playing. X. Jacoby. Arroyo.?
How long will Cam play.?
I want to win this game. Im sick of loosing bowl games.
Everything iv heard is that Iowa State is taking this game seriously.
Think Restrepo and Brown won't play but no definite word yet on who else -Matt
@canesporttv . Thanks Matt.
That experience argument is weak. Prior to the portal everyone had unproven players its college 😂 If you can coach and recruit you would believe in your teaching.
No Mendoza.
Waiting for the Spring to land players is not Championship Roster Management. Landing Hill, Baron, etc in the Spring is a major reason they never acclimated into the system.
We’re taking a step back next year, we need to face facts. We couldn’t win with a mercenary roster this year and we’re nowhere near that next year and we have a much tougher schedule
You arguably don’t need a cam ward with a decent secondary. Decent.
There are going to be more players in the portal shortly!! Once these bowl/ playoff games are over guys that watched and didn't get much playing time will bail.
Coach L is fine. Assistants ? Next recruiting looks good.
Um fans could complain because they always get caught up in the hype. Now we have a recruiter as a head coach
Matt get your facts straight. Emory was recruited by Frank Ponce not Shannon Dawson.
My bad, should have clarified it more as from what I hear Dawson loves Emory and thinks he fits his system perfectly -Matt
Matt. CJ Daniels had a significant heel injury yet played the whole season. Satan....I mean Brian Kelly spoke about it and praised CJs toughness and praised his locker room presence. And Kelly doesn't usually heap praises on individual players so I'm hoping that means something. We'll see. I'm expecting him to have a really good year. He had multiple big time schools wanting him still. He chose Miami to play his last year of football. His last chance to get in the NFL. I'm hoping that also means something lol. Something about our offense he saw at practice. 🤞
We will see, still has to prove it. Has the potential for sure -Matt
Gary is 💯 correct on Emory playing.Who cares if we win the dogshit bowl game when the season was a total letdown from the expectations we all had.Mario would definitely have a better idea what Emory can do to help find out what needs at the position.
Go Canes 🙌 Good Morning Gary Ferman Matt Shodell
So when do you put the kids in so every year bring in a qb?
Right on time let’s go
development of your own players damn the portal…
Matt has been saying for 3 years !!!!!!
Thank you! I think the staff knows they missed on a lot of players
@@komandanteify young kids have to play you’ll never know what you got ..if you hit on 10-15 kids in class you’re good
Everyone uses the portal just like every nfl team uses free agency. Get used to it
@@jmiller9972 free agency is contract binding these jits free agents every offseason
Gary, why do we need more portal acquisitions after 2 top 10 recruiting classes? Didn't you guys say we needed fewer portal players and that the championship teams don't take double-digit portal players?
I'm already having a portal hangover. Getting a majority of your starters from the portal isn't the answer.
Go Canes
I think the reason they being (selective) is getting portals is the amount of 0s. Period. But this is time for Mario's kids to step up.
And I'm good with Mendoza cuz Emory needs competition which I don't think Mendoza is scared of cuz I seen rumors of him and UGA
We have enough short receivers
Matt Florida didn't get all top free agents lol
I meant talking about the portal auditions and this signing class both get NIL -Matt
Gary, I'm with Matt. Miss me with the Mendoza embellishments. There must have been a memo sent to all the Hurricane podcasters because they're giving the same hype as if he's an elite QB.

Now I have a question..Has Mario really made us sufficiently better than Manny, Richt, Golden??
Personally, I don't feel too confident with Mario !
His play calling in key moments has hurt this team, so his part of the foundation structure of the team!
Missing heart, cojones??
Anyway, Go Canes, best in 2025
The two best teams in the ACC got crushed in the bowl playoffs when will Miami be good enough to compete in the ACC don’t understand this we have the best recruiting classes in the ACC for years now
Clemson was not crushed the refs was pro Texas and Clemson still gave them a game
@ you missing the point we had possibly the best Qb in Miami history and we weren’t good enough in the ACC to win the conference or represent the ACC in the playoffs and both ACC teams were beat comfortably we have problems and I truly believe coaching is the issue. We have the best recruiting classes in the ACC but we are fourth best team in a very weak conference
Being in ACC going to be a problem
@ why should it be a problem we have the best recruiting classes in the ACC the problem is coaching
It was the defense, not Cam. You could sée their problems from early in the season but never made the appropriate changes.
And the d coordinator was also the worst position coach..... SAFETY!?!? 🙌🏾
Use recruits. QB is fine unless U Texas QB leaves
Plus they have the kids that could enter after teams lose in playoffs. Those kids have 5 days after their season is over.
I watch podcast from ole miss, uga, osu....Bama they never mention proven players. They trust their coach to play the best guys fr so jr or sr
We don’t do a Homer podcast. We just report what we know and believe -Matt
@canesporttv I don't understand what that has to with playing sophmores and juniors. Cfb been around over 100 yrs now we get this portal and 1st yr starters aren't allowed. Play the best guy experience has never been a requirement before the portal.
Good players are not willing to wait 3 years to play like the good old days,
A better system is needed
-maybe limit teams portal additions based on win lost
Gary- no top wr coming and putting their money year in the hands of Emory period.
Please give me the example of Miami having a great coach and a bad player.
Kids have found out about Mario, he can’t coach… transfer portal is hurting him as a recruiter. Miami will be an average team under this leadership, sorry Gary…
We haven’t had a good offense and defense at the same time in a looong time. Pathetic
Florida is all in on their Qb after one year how long Emory has been at Miami and Mario is still undecided about Emory develop the recruits you bring. This is the problem we won more games then Florida blew Florida out but it seem as if Florida program is in better place than our program coaching has to be better period
You can’t compare the qbs. Lagway is on a completely different level.
@ lagway is a true freshman when will our Qb will be ready
Gary??? The last 3 coaches, 3years record. Mark 26-13//manny 21-15// Mario 22-15. Do you believe this is critical year for Mario or do makes so much money we’re stuck with him
You are not stuck with Mario. He’s battling through a changing game and tirelessly working to get the program back has gone from 5 to 7 to maybe 11 wins the 2 losses weee frustrating, no argument but .. that said yes I have some concern about the roster for next season. A lot of work to do - Gary
I think that Gary is pretty hypocritical when it comes to saying let Emory play instead of cam in the bowl game... Because I remember years ago Gary complaining about top players opting out of bowl games... Lol how opinions change!
You are confusing a top NFL draft pick with a top returning player - Gary
Matt with his made up “free agency” term 🙄
Gary smh you don’t know much about football Jesus Christ man
Good God Matt is the Grinch year around. Your first sentence is enough to turn this show off 🤦🏾♂️
So Miami is never to use unproven players @Gary? That take is so full of BS. Mendoza is not that good, he okay. Emoy could be bettet than okay.
Basketball players are not playing D, lazy
The football program has been on a downward spiral for over 20 years
It went on the downward spiral back in the mid-2000s. It's been down the whole time except for little glimpses of hope here and there like 2017, 2023. I hope we're on upward trajectory. Definitely getting better players in the program since Mario's arrival
I went to games at Orange bowl and they were electric and over the top and great players love that atmosphere
Have you guys heard anything on Lightfoot and JScott leaving
They staying
@ praise JESUS
I hope not
Have you guys heard about lightfoot and JScott leaving? Is this true
Luke Nickel is your guy
That kid's a stud
Who is better as a coach Larry Coker or Mario
Coker not a good coach and team went down hill with him. Mario good recruiter but just average coach as lost to inferior teams at Oregon too.
@ i believe Coker is a better coach than Mario Mario has had elite recruiting classes and you don’t see the team being much better this year will be huge for Mario just don’t see game planning and he lost his biggest game of the year to a first year coach who game plan against us
Mario for sure Coker couldn’t recruit
@ I said coach not recruit game planning and developing
Coker was not a "bad" coach. Mario is like the smoke coming out the tunnel. It's glitz and glamours unless it dissolves away. S24
