UM was a ‘mess’ and Diaz was partly to blame. His first recruiting class can help him fix it

There is no other way to say it but that, for Miami Hurricanes football coach Manny Diaz, the past five weeks have been a mad scramble to fix what he had such a large part in leaving broken.

From the moment he returned to UM on Dec. 30 through Wednesday’s National Signing Day and conclusion of 2019 recruiting -- this was one coach’s redemption tour.

“We didn’t have the best December at Miami,” Diaz understates it. “I contributed to that by leaving when I did.”

Include this program’s rally from the depths of December to this moment when you think about the greatest comebacks in Canes history.
