I liked your article "The Opinion Piece" & you see it the way most of us see it. We know this staff just has not been able to close the top rated players at certain Positions and keep those who were committed for the most part which has been a huge problem for this staff.

And evaluating who we have & where they would best impact the team immediately has also been a huge problem. But this summer session with a lot of RS's to evaluate and get them in the right spots will IMO be the story of this team this year. There are a lot of guys here to work with & if Melvin proves to just be 1/2 ass then, our DL play should be the biggest improvement on the D side this year & this is where the evaluating you write about is crucial.

Had what? 12-13 RS's last year & most on the D side so-there is talent to work with . I just hope that Al gives Melvin a lot of say on that side of the ball over Waste of Space No D. The game planning week to week has to be improved 10 fold if we even stand a chance at winning our side & from what we've seen from Mark for the most part-the Defensive scheme & game plans have been Predictable-looking way too simular every week & not being able to make game time changes if his scheme is not working. It's been that-he's gonna stick to what he put together that week come hell or highwater no matter what is happening on the field. Sure there have been 1/2 time changes but, it takes a hell of a lot more than that as a D Coord to win certain FB games & show you have the ability to figure out what the other team is doing & make the right changes to combat what they are doing & so far? Mark just has not shown this and not even close. His Defense is about the same BS every week with maybe a week or 2 he decides to get aggressive. And when he has, we've had success and that's just what has killed me about this kat. He'll cut loose 1 week & we have a game keeping the opposing Off. to 200 yds or less and then turn right around and have a 500 yd game the next performance to an inferior team that no way should put those kinds of #'s up with the proper position evaluation, week to week game planning & over all being an aggressive Defense every week & more importantly, being able to make the changes as the game goes on when the other team has figured out what we're doing & for the most part? Just has not been that difficult to figure out what we've been doing & his vanilla ass ways of going about running a Defense.

If he would do this, what would he have to lose except not letting teams & avg QB's at best having personal best & school records against us so, I just hope Al does let Melvin have a lot more say so as he was 1 of Al's crew at Temple and turn these kids back into a force and becoming the Defense Miami was known for for so many years. If Melvin can finally get Jelani to play up to his potential-we have youngsters like Chad-AQM -DJ & others that can be real forces this year. But if Melvin rides with Fat ass every week & just goes by what he puts together well, we'll pretty much see & get what we have been. IMO- Melvin will b the 1 that takes this D to the next level and plays every game with consistency, a chip on their shoulders & if this happens? These kids will have that "CANE SWAG" on that side we have just been dying to see again for way too long. We'll be able to tell early if Melvin has done the proper evaluating of the players he has to work with & if the DL looks different in the way they get to the passer or the ball & if we do see this then, we'll know that Melvin has had his say & we could actually have a defense with real #'s that warrant a top 20 defense. The players are here it's just like you write-"The evaluating this summer has to be as crucial as anytime Al & his bunch have been here. Time will tell & we'll be able to tell too-EARLY.....
