Marve looking for a deep ball and throwing it poorly is just part of the growing process the Hurricanes are going to have to endure with a freshman quarterback.

Harris was in the zone, but remember, he threw two interceptions as well. Not all was honky-dory -- so to speak -- with him under center. Oh, and he was the only QB to get sacked in this game for Miami. He holds on to the ball too long sometimes.

The offensive line is terrible. They can't get a good jump off the ball to get the running game going. This has to stop. NOW.

The defense is terrible. It probably wouldn't even be able to stop St. Thomas Aquinas right now.

Travis Benjamin is the MAN on special teams.

AJ is the playmaking wide receiver that this school has missed since 2004 or so.

More when I really watch the game instead of going on major highlights.

2011 is the key year, WL.

You need to read the full recruit class of a coach to see how he does.

I will be that patient, I just think they'll turn it around in less than four years -- and I'm not even drinking the Kool-Aid.

I will have patience, so long as he stops putting Jacory Harris in and disrupting the offensive flow.

Is that fair? I think so.

I am sick and tired of having the offense sputter with Harris with Marve handling them so well.

Also (this may not be Shannon -- CHRIST I HOPE IT ISN'T), first-and-goal and all the offense can manage is a field goal?!?!

Something needs to change. Like, leave Harris out for an entire game and get some sort of 3- or 4- or 5-wide situation in goal-line offense -- just to shake things up.
