Former Canes venting on Facebook…

I mentioned a few weeks back that it was my intent to no longer pile on in this blog or maliciously rip past players and coaches. I will do my best to stick to my word.

In the case of social networking and former players venting or sharing their opinions, that’s a different ballgame.

Saw the above screen capture on Facebook earlier and wanted to post here. File this one under “straight from the horse’s mouth” as former Miami offensive lineman Reggie Youngblood had some choice words about the Canes offense on Monday night.

“So Mark Whipple couldn’t be at UM while I was there… just my luck. :/”

Pretty much says it all, eh? Youngblood came to Miami a five-star prospect out of Texas and left undrafted. A similar fate to quarterback Kyle Wright – another can’t miss prospect whose career was much maligned due to working with three different offense coordinators, none of which could hold a candle to Whipple.

Wright’s post regarding Youngblood’s Whipple thoughts: “S**t, you’re telling me…”

Former Miami back up linebacker Eric Houston: “… Damn … :(“

Son of Randy and one-year offensive lineman Xavier Shannon: “I feel the same way.”

Proof is in the pudding, people. I don’t even need to trash Dan Werner, Rich Olson/Todd Berry or Patrick Nix… as former Canes are taking the Intraweb to do it for me.

Sorry you old schoolers missed out on the rising by a season. All of you deserved a better experience at The U and were done in by nothing more than bad timing.
