Miami players finally play to full potential

This about says it all for Miami. Without a winning team to hide behind, the true Miami player comes out.

Watching this video, none of it comes as a surprise. Except for maybe the commentator, former Miami player Lamar Thomas, who begins to justify the fight saying,

“Now that’s what I’m talkin’ about. You come into our house, you should get your behind kicked (min 147). You don’t come into OB playin’ that stuff. You across the ocean there. You across the city. You can’t come into our place talkin’ noise like that. You get your but beat. I was about to go down that elevator and get in that thing.”

As if that wasn’t enough, Thomas continues later saying,

“I say why don’t they just meet outside in the tunnel after the ball game and get it on some more. You don’t come into the OB baby. We’ve had it down a couple of years but you don’t come in talkin’ smack. Not in our house….You know what we’d be sayin’ right now, ‘We ready! We ready!”

At first, I though Thomas was doing his best satire of the situation, but I’m afraid he wasn’t.

Any other school, and you could count on the fact that Thomas called his last game Sat. night. At Miami, who knows?

After the fight, when Coker should have had every one of the Miami players on the bench, with their mouths shut, giving them the riot act, what did Miami do? Used it as a chance to rally the team. Helmets go into the air with players jumping up and down.

Coker has lost all control of the team and he should be gone before the week is over. So far, the penalties have been minor with 13 players receiving one game suspensions.

Maybe next game, they could plant a flag or something.

Update: Announcer Lamar Thomas is gone.
