A question for Drnkyourmlkshk

When Miami hired Dan Enos you said it was a bad hire, and you were proven correct, Enos was a disaster. I'm wondering what your thoughts are on Rhett Lashlee as OC, I know SMU had a potent offense last year, what's your assessment of the hire?

Enos was terrible.

I saw him berating quarterbacks throughout the season.

To be fair, all the blame for the anemic offense wasn't his fault, Miami's O-line was bad all year, and their QB's were very inconsistent, but Enos's play calling left a lot to be desired. Manny Diaz has said Miami will go to a more up tempo spread offense this year, I've heard some really good things about Lashlee, just hoping everything works out, this past season was embarrassing

Thanks for your hometown insight, KANE.

If Miami's offense was forced to play Miami's defense, the result would not be pretty.

The Hurricanes ended the season as an "impossible favorite" against Louisiana Tech in the Independence Bowl

Never in the history of sports betting has a team covered a 6.5-point spot when held scoreless.

Miami players looked "uncoached" and "unmotivated," according to one close observer of football at the U.

This past season Miami became the first team in the last 40 years to lose three games SU as a 14+ chalk, they lost to Ga tech, V Tech, and FIU, they were also favored by 30 against C Michigan and won the game by 5

It's a stupid hire. It doesnt matter who they have as OC until they establish who the QB is and Lashley is fast paced (which I like in the ACC) but he's 63/37 pass. They don't have any proven WRs and if they have 4 kids all preparing to start at QB and cant pick one for the entire season there is zero reason to believe anything will change. Also take a look at what happened to Xavier Jones in his offense at SMU. If you have a 1500 yard rusher as a freshman who is a 400 yard rusher in Lashlees 1st year offense its telling. Lashlee also has had the luxury of getting big paydays working under coaches who called most of the offense in Malzahn and Dykes.

Diaz is a fine hire but they need to establish the run before the pass, pick one QB let the others transfer if necessary and then focused on rebuilding the front 7 and WR corps. If they were really smart they'd gotten Canada or Richrod who will put up better numbers longterm using the run. Lashley is a band aid for the press not a longterm sample size solution.

Thanks for the response Drink, not the response I was hoping to read, but you always give your honest opinion. BTW, I think the QB with the most upside is Jarren Williams, we'll see how it plays out

I agree but they should name him or whoever starter June 1st and stick with him 13 games next year.

Former Houston QB D'Eriq King has transferred to Miami, talk to me Drink

Insanely odd choice by King. I imagine he will be picking the OC is my only guess. Heisman candidate two years ago with provably 20 top offenses vying for him and he goes to the U?
Better runner than passer but throws the deep ball well. Extremely dangerous, faster than 99% of dbs and can cut on a dime.
If rich rod gets in there or someone like him this could be huge. The wrong hire and you're gonna lose him quicker than Holgerson.
This better workout as you're gonna lose at least 2 if not 3 4 star qbs that you signed the last 3 years and also both Perry and William's will likely not further develope in a
System built for King.
He's a big band aid though and I think makes Miami at least 4th or 5th in the acc right away. Tougher conference in a big way in 2020 opposed to the past 2 years.

I remember very well Enos as a qb for Michigan St, and then I saw coach Perelis died last week, Bret Johnson transferred there from ucla and never played behind jim miller and I think enos.

Thanks for the response, two things. First, in case you forgot, Miami has already hired Rhett Lashlee as their OC, he and King have been talking the last couple weeks, and most people feel King would be a perfect fit for Lashlee's offense. Second, what was thought to have been a done deal apparently isn't, while Miami remains the front runner, there's now talk that King might choose another school.

Remember when this fag said he was staying at Houston?

What a dumb fuck.

Could have gone to OU or Alabama and had a chance to win a Heisman.

lol..........He picks a middle of the pack ACC team.

The Oklahoma offense seems to be perfect for King. It must have been a money issue that he didn't transfer there. Hard to believe that Miami is able to compete with that Sooner money. Well maybe the pyramid scheme game is strong again in the Miami area.
