***Official Miami Hurricanes Thread***

So are we getting Seantrel Henderson to wrap up one of the best OL classes Miami has seen or what? Anybody knows how the visit went . . . I was hoping he woudl be able to chill with Bryant McKinnie but I think he is AWOL.

Henderson's visit went very well. He likes the campus and the program. Randy spent a little over an hour just talking with Seantrel's father while Seantrel was speaking with the hosts of his trip. I think Seantrel would like to come to Miami and could definitely see himself playing at Miami, but in the end I think he lands at Ohio State. For Shannon to pull Seantrel Henderson, it would be a major upset.

Got our second ACC win in hoops yesterday over Va Tech.

Going for #3 tomorrow at Wake.

Apparently, the Pittsburgh game is either going to be pushed back to later in the season, or moved to a Thursday nighter.

Arthur Brown left UM, per the Herald. I wonder where he'll transfer to?

Just another reason that you can't base recruiting success all on stars, though our staff really doesn't know dick about player development.

No way possible it could have anything to do with him just not being any good, and not accepting that reality. It of course has to be the coaching staff.

This may just be the ugliest start to a basketball game I have ever seen. 6 TO's on some ugly passes, two ugly travels two airballs, two almost airballs, 1-10 from the field, sloppy rebounding, couple bad fouls... Not even halfway into the first half...

Two words:

Arthur Brown

Surprisingly, he's off to Kansas State.

I can't say that it's the coaching staff 100%.

However, when you're Arthur Brown and you can't get on the field with virtually NO ONE in front of you....

I find that odd. Is it possible that Arthur Brown felt that no matter what he did on the field he wasn't going to see the field because there was a personal grudge against him? This is just another of many kids who have transferred under Randy Shannon. I'm not attacking Randy Shannon...I'm just saying.

How can we not look at this and say, "Ok, there's something more to these transfers."

How come is it when a player transfers that it's suddenly because they "aren't any good"?

People were lauding over this guy when we picked him up, and now that he decides to transfer, he's not worth anything? And if he's not really that great, then shouldn't it be on the coaching staff to not even pick the guy up in the first place?

Are all the 5* guys we've gotten that haven't panned out really not good, or could it be player development?

I'm not a big believer in the * rating system, but do you really mean to tell me that we have whiffed on every single one of them, could it be that we can't develop talent? Or could it be a mix of both?

 

[CedarPhin]

And while I'm on it, that Wake game blew farts.

Surprisingly, he's off to Kansas State.

I'd heard Louisville or K-State. At least he'll be close to home in Manhattan.

This must be why Shannon is now targeting two and three-star players from Buffalo.

You know, we really got a coup when we stole that guy from Eastern Illinois.

A real powerhouse that team is.

Miami now drops to 2-6 in ACC play. I can't wait for baseball season to start.
