Unconquered

This is the least talented Miami team that I have seen in my 11 years of watching college football. You can spin it anyway you want, that's a fact. Youth doesn't equate to talent. None of those names that you mentioned, save a few, stand out as players. The ones that do, save a few, are known from their recruitment, not their production. You are severely overestimating your talent level and recruiting prowess.

I did too in the 2005-2009 stretch.

Well FSUKum, We shall see I will hold you accountable and you vice versa, We shall see,remember I never said Our Defense was Great or good, I just need improvement from 117/120 anything is better than last year for US.

NoleFan1, Dude I agree in all my years this was the Worst Defense I have ever seen but I also will say Miami has always been known for our Defense rather than our Offense but 2013 has a Chance to be a Very good Offense but we need a lot of help from our Defense and I do see the ACC being slightly down again due to QB play in our League.

When People were saying about FSU prior too this year the main thing I said to all Nole fans is that this Defense is not the Defense of the past but I thought the DE were on a High level but I did not feel the LB's were that good and I felt that the DT's were good but not great like in the past.

The Problem with the Noles is not Talent its at QB and Jimbo he plays too close to the vest the same as Coach Richt at Georgia, Good man but he doesn't have that killer instinct.

The defense you describe as having decent DT play, good end play and marginal LB play still gets you at least 70 or 80th in D based on nothing else, having some kind of D-Line.

The problems is your D, as a whole, is terrible across the board. Chickillo has regressed, your DTs constantly get manhandled by quality OL. Your LBs are the strength but are out of position alot. The DBs? FSU circa 2009 is a compliment to how bad they are. Dnofrio is a horrible DC who does not adjust.

Is the problem youth? It doesn't help, but cane fans have been saying that for how long? The truth is the talent is not as great as you think it is. Just because they start for your team does not actually make them good. The ability to name them will not convince people otherwise.you also lack significant depth and questionable recruiting will continue that trend.

Bottom line. Bad coaching and lack of talent equates to a 120 defense rank. That hasn't really been rectified, so why do you think it will magically improve?

Just remember those names!

Coach, You are looking at the Records, What my statement was to Ocala was the talent of the Playmakers that you can't compare at all, Everybody knows the last 10 years we haven't been coached well, that is a given but you cannot debate the talent, Look at the NFL you will see a lot of players who are contributing that played at Miami.

Heck here in Atlanta the starting punter is Matt Bosher and we have a linebacker Atkins on the team. So while you may say we are comparable we really aren't.

Look... don't be surprised if they beat us next year.

Remember...they were within 1 score of us going into the 4th quarter. Now look at what we lost... Then look at what they lost...

Lets not forget, anything is possible if Jimbo is going to remain @ offensive coordinator...

If we can forget how to play vs. NC State, we certainly can vs. Miami next year.

Hey coach, remind me again the last time you guys won the national championship. And as for the talent level over the last 10 years, can you give me a list of the FSU players that are dominant in the NFL. As I recall, even with the mediocre records, we were still putting some pretty talented guys in the league (I think our 1st round streak ended around 2006 or 2007). We also had some highly ranked recruiting classes under Coker and a #1 class under Shannon. Unfortunately, the development of the players under these coaches (Shannon in particular) was poor and game day coaching was questionable at best.

And if we beat you guys next year, it WON'T be because you guys give it away (like NCSt). It will be because we are a better team than you.

Are u the same guy that said we'll be 4-8 or 5-7 this past season? I personally can see 9-3 or 8-4. Losses will be to uf, uva, a let down, and if fsu 's qb turns out to be a stud then we'll lose (they're offense is pretty loaded with a game managing qb) no Stud QB and we win!

When was the last time the Hurrishames were even thought about when talking about NC's? Why don't you tell me who is dominating in the NFL from the Hurrishames in the last 5 years? Go ahead ill wait. Beat us, and then you can run your yapper.

Congratulations on wasting the type of talent your program will never get again.

"Golden Era of the U" 13-11

Sorry guess your not so good at reading. I went back to 2004 in the records to show the last time you guys mattered. Now like i said in the last 5 years name your dominating players. If i recall you should come back with two, one being a tight end who played one year with the hurrishames.

Coach,

When was the last time u guys won a national title, shall I say Prince remember him1999, also you name me some dominate players from FSU in the league, don't come down on people just debate. I have been around so if you want to direct your questions to me I will be glad to answer them.

Don,

Really know your place, I mean we haven't been the dominate team we thought entering the ACC but let's be real can you really say you are happy with your production over the last 10 years, I mean if we are not playing for the National Title we are angry, are you just satisfied with beating us and winning 9 or 10 games a year.
