... how on planet earth does Chuck Martin have a job tomorrow? He’s 0-for-his-career against out-of-conference FBS competition, and he let Ohio State have the first 85 picks and the last 76 points at recess. He angered a lot of people, and everything he did this week made Miami look small.

So seriously, how does he still have a job tomorrow?

Isn't it pretty rare to fire head-coach after game 4?

Tis Ohio St

They'll be fine in the MAC.

You're telling me. All real Miami fans want him gone.

One small thing .... for this to happen Miami will have to reach into that endowment $$$ because, if I'm not mistaken, Martin was just given a raise and an extension. https://csnbbs.com/images/icons/rolleyes.gif

I dare you to say something nice about the team that you are supposedly a fan of. Seems like every post of yours is some "woe is us" crap.

And you really think Miami is gonna come in and wreck WMU in Waldo? They just lost by 70+ points to OSU and Chuck Martin's continuous idiotic ramblings have pissed off every person ever involved with Miami athletics.

Find your stones, man.

I’ve never forgiven Martin for blowing that UC game a couple years ago by not calling a time out in time. But what things was he saying this week that pissed people off?

The comments he made about OSU getting the "first 85 picks at recess". He was basically denigrating his own team and saying they had no chance at victory. This was all BEFORE the game.

8-5, still possible, as are 9 wins. Not gonna write it off yet.

TL & the team have got to prove it tho.

Miami will be tough. We barely squeaked by them last year. Should be an East contender.

I don't think so -- although anything's possible if WMU's O isn't running on All cylinders. Our D sucks balls.

However, Miami didn't improve -- they went backwards -- from last year's momentum. And this time they come to Kalamazoo.

I expect it to be a relatively close game, but I would expect WMU to win it as "par".

Miami is going to be fine once they get into MAC play. With the exception of Tennessee Tech, they had 3 brutal OOC games that would have resulted in a L for any other team in the MAC. My guess is the Redhawks will win 5-6 games in conference and find themselves with 6-7 wins at the end of the season-- this time they will go bowling.

Whether Chuck Martin will be back for a 7th year will be up to their AD.

Yeah, but it's not all about winning vs losing, though. It's how you executed, to evaluate, at that pace, where they're stand come conference play.

Miami vs Iowa:
245 yds VS 465 yds
17/27 Passing (6.9 ypp) VS 21/30 Passing (8.4 ypp)
2.4 yds/carry VS 5.2 yds/carry

Miami vs Cinci:
207 yds VS 420 yds
10/18 Passing (7.9 ypp) VS 14/30 Passing (6.2 ypp)
1.6 yds/carry VS 4.9 yds/carry

Miami vs Ohio State:
130 yds VS 601 yds
7/20 Passing (3.0 ypp) VS 22/30 Passing (12.1 ypp)
1.6 yds/carry VS 5.4 yds/carry

Miami vs Tenn Tech:
349 yds VS 282 yds
11/18 Passing (8.8 ypp) VS 23/34 Passing (6.1 ypp)
4.8 yds/carry VS 1.8 yds/carry

I can't Expect Miami to go 6-2 in the MAC this year, given how that all unfolded. Doesn't mean they couldn't Improve. And the MAC isn't having an awesome year, so that helps.

BUFFALO (very possible win; Buffalo may be riding too high off Temple win)
@WMU
NIU
@KENT (tougher than one may think)
@OHIO (tough game)
BGSU (sure win)
AKRON (sure win)
@BALL STATE (tougher than one may think)

Here's hoping -- while I cheer for my teams to win rather than trying to pick which teams will win, the game against my alma mater has got to be circled as one of the games to hope for one of the upsets needed to get the Golden Flashes bowling this year.
