Also 1000% here for the DJ and Stroud slander. Can we do Bryce Young next?

What does “still high rated” even mean in this context? Nobody would be shocked if by the end of the year it was obvious that DJ and Bryce are better than JT. By all account Stroud has been balling too.

Looking at the college football landscape, one of the few conclusion I've drawn from the first couple of weeks is that there isn't a dominant team in CFB this season.

Back at the last three seasons, we've been treated to undefeated, very complete national champions with huge victory margins (2018 Clemson, 2019 LSU, 2020 Bama). From the looks of things this year there's no team on that level.

Alabama got a lot of love for blowing out Miami but now we've come to find out that Miami is an average/borderline bad ACC team. We got a lot of love for beating Clemson and they've shown themselves to be a deeply flawed team as well. The usual contenders like Ohio State, Oklahoma and Notre Dame also look very shaky so far.

I think this year's national champion will be a good, not great team with flaws that's good enough to get it done but not in all time great team (and that's ok)
 
Dumbest call of the day was MS State kicking an onside kick after getting the score to 28-23 with 3 minutes left. Defense only gives up 4 yards but memphis is already in fg range. Kick it and go up 31-23. State scores in 2 plays but fails in the 2 point conversion. Game over.
 
Is Miami just a bad job at this point?

Obviously the easiest route to success is access to players - which they should have in spades.

But is literally anything else actually in place down there for that program to be successful?

Stop. I dont talk about USC's program as being successful, BUT, if we really want to talk, the U is on another whole level than USC. Ya'll wish you had this type of turmoil. Be real.

Ya'll 1-10 in bowl games since 2007 with the 1 win in the Russell Athletic Bowl.

Come on man.

THE U IS DEAD. Even Nebraska won more bowls than the U in that span. You need to pipe down and look at Nebraska as your peer. The U ain't even on USC's level. And you know that.

The admin is the biggest issue. Look who the hires have been since Butch Davis left.
Larry Coker - only coached at UTSA afterwords
Randy Shannon - no HC jobs afterwards, coordinator jobs that he was fired from too
Al Golden - NFL position coaching gigs
Mark Richt - retirement
Manny Diaz - won’t be a HC again either

Outside of Richt, who Miami hired when he was at the end of his career and just didn’t have it in him anymore/ probably was going through the early stages of Parkinson’s, each hire was awful. The funny part is that they’ve had better options at every turn. They’ve turned down interest for Gary Patterson, Mario and Mullen alone over the last 15 years.

Miami and USC recruit at around the same level and both routinely underachieve every year. If you think Nebraska and Miami are “peers” then that’s cute. Of course USC, has been better than Miami. USC and Miami’s misfortunes are more closely aligned than any other programs for a lot of reasons. Small private schools, metropolitan cities, admins making baffling decisions, etc.
