youngbloodz Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I'm ecstatic right now. Al Golden pulled a top 10 class with everything going on at Miami. Just speak volumes about the type of recruiter he is. The most National titles in the last 30 years. The most players in the NFL. Top institute in the state and top 50 in the country. The U will be back boys. And it will happen sooner than most think as long as Al Golden stays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Pilgrim Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Nice to see the Miami guys have something to be happy about. You guys have been down for way too long and while this doesn't insure that Miami is back, it's certainly a step in the right direction. Been awhile since the Big 3 have all been in the Top 10.

Mr Pickle1 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Miami was the only florida team I could stand rooting for. Hope to see that come back. A good Miami balances out UF and FSU, and is good for UGA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unconquered. Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Out of your 33 recruits 23 are 3 stars. Tracy Howard and Duke Johnson are both the bets players at their position in Florida and will no doubt be great players for the U.. But you're class is only top 10 (barely might I add) because you took 33 players. Sure stars aren't always a guaranteed thing but look at the offer list for most of your guys, very mediocre.I do believe with Golden Miami will be back to being a good team but thumping your chest this hard after a number based class is not the best thing. To put thing in perspective FSU took only 19 recruits and we're ranked above you in every single site. Plus this next season will most likely be the roughest year in a while for miami with all the talent they lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever FSU's issue with blowing the top off the program, it's not talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Ocean Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 We really just need to find a cure for ACC Football HIV so that Miami and FSU can return to what they once were before they develop Full Blown ACC AIDS, like Clemson and Georgia Tech.

itsjustafleshwound Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 How much I missed this debate. The Florida schools are truly special, either in their amazing talent and success or in their ability to maintain a pretence of relevance when they hold a .500 winning percentage. On another note, I look forward to these rivalries and the continued success of football in Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every 6 years isn't enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngbloodz Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Laugh if you want Cap. But you know it's true. When it comes to academics we are the very best in the state. UF isn't that far behind. Also Cody Ed Reed was a 2 star player and Kyle Wright was a 5 star player. FSU and its pathetic academic standards will pull more players than Miami right now. Jimbo is a great recruiter. But we still have 5 titles to your 2. So you are still our b*****s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anybody's recruiting future Rhodes scholars...oh wait. Sorry I couldn't resist. I think Golden is a good coach but I still have a hard time seeing him as a good fit in Coral Gables. What's your honest take on that? Edited February 3, 2012 by South FL Dawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngbloodz Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Al has a lot of Jimmy in him. Not the big ego part. But hard work. Take care of your business in the classroom. And he listens to the ex players. He invites them to come and talk to the team. You get: Micheal Irvin, Ray Lewis, Warren Sapp, Jonathan Vilma, Frank Gore, Willis McGahee, Kellen Winslow, Bryant McKinnie all those men talking to you you're going to listen. I left many more but you get what I'm saying. I didn't like the selection of him as the coach at first. But now he is exactly what we need. Butch came in and clean up our program. You saw what he did. He put together the greatest collection of talent in college football HISTORY with the 2001 National Champion Miami Hurricanes. I trust Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngbloodz Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Speaking of the Rock anyone remember when he joined the Nation of Domination and ended up beating up Farooq and kicking him out? Farooq aka Ron Simmons who played at FSU. See even in the WWF Miami was still beating up FSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Ocean Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Jimmy Johnson only man in the modern era to rule college then NFL. Jimmy's on my Coaching Mount Rushmore with Lombardi, Parcells and Ditka.Felt worse for Ed Reed and Ray than anybody after Championship Weekend. So many times in the playoffs Ravens offense lets those guys down who put everything they have into football.Rock gettin Fast 'n Furious big checks. Can't hate Ron Simmons thoThe Rock>>>all but Richttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryzQVUQQHDo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South FL Dawg Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Youngbloodz, I really respected Butch Davis for cleaning up the mess. I was shocked when the stuff with John Blake at UNC came out b/c he had to know Blake was dirty.I'll take your word for it with Golden. Embracing the history of whatever school yoiu're at should be a job requirement. Accept and be accepted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
