The buzz and excitement around the Manny Diaz era has been palpable ever since CMD announced he was flipping from Temple to Miami. In just a matter of months he’s rebuilt a roster using the oft-overlooked transfer portal, brought on an excellent offensive playcaller, and has injected the program with the youth and enthusiasm it has sorely needed. It seems as though #TheNewMiami is both new and old. Something we haven’t seen for nearly two decades and yet, it still hearkens back to the Miami swagger of old.
With all that excitement and hope for a future that looks brighter than it did several short months ago, it’s fair to ask just how high expectations should be set for this team.
