Miami QB transfer Tate Martell granted "hardship" waiver from NCAA, immediately eligible
Former Ohio State QB Tate Martell receives waiver from NCAA and has been cleared to play in 2019 at Miami

The NCAA continues to work in mysterious ways today granting Ohio State QB transfer Tate Martell immediately eligibility for his new team, the Miami Hurricanes, for a "hardship" waiver. What exactly is the Martell hardship no one really knows except the NCAA. Martell was afraid to compete with incoming transfer Justin Fields who too got the hardship waiver to transfer from UGA. At this point the only "hardships" I see for silver spoon fed Martell are either a bruised labia and/or a bruised ego. I'll go both at this point.

This of course is great news for the Miami Hurricanes football program and their fans. As you may know new head coach Manny Diaz has his work cut out for him. With redshirt sophomore QB N'Kosi Perry back as the only returning Miami QB with any game experience his results were average at best. Martell should be able to compete if not win the starting spot this spring or summer. Martell is a former 4-star recruit out of the famed Bishop Gorman HS program in Las Vegas where he never lost a game. Martell sat behind JT Barrett and Dwayne Haskins his first two seasons at Ohio State but did enjoy some success in mop up duty.

Da U's Manny Diaz just took a major dump on FSU's Willie Taggart, announces Miami is back with the swagger at Nike Coaches Clinic

For the past 15 something years the University of Miami has tried to back away from their swagger and "Convicts" days when Da U was dominating college football in the 80's and 90's. Yesterday new head coach Manny Diaz (the creator of the Turnover Chain) announced it loud and clear he isn't gonna back down from the swagger for the Convicts. In fact he's returning it ten fold if this story at a Nike Coaches Clinic is true...

Listen I'm a self admitted Miami hater. I hated the Convicts with a passion back in the "Catholics vs Convicts" days when Jimmy Johnson and his punk ass team would showboat and strut all over the field. But as much as I hated them I gotta admit I missed them these past 15 something years. Much like college football is better when Notre Dame is kicking the shit out of Michigan every year the sport is a hell of a lot better when Miami is strutting all over the field, starting fights outside the locker room while getting off the plane in army fatigues. That's the fucking Miami Hurricanes I remember and loathed. This is why I absolutely fucking love Diaz dropping his nuts on Taggart at a Nike camp in Orlando. He's doing his best to change the culture back to the Convicts. Granted if this story is true Diaz committed multiple NCAA rule infractions not to mention real life laws but that is neither here or there.
Diaz is a Miami boy who has seen Da U's powerful Hurricane like attitude decline to not even a brisk fart in the wind. Diaz has already turned Miami into Transfer Portal U this off season by convincing 5-star recruits to come to Coral Gables such as UCLA's Jaelan Phillips and his teammate defensive tackle Chigozie Nnoruka, as well as Ohio State quarterback Tate Martell and USC safety Bubba Bolden. It remains to be seen if any of the former 5-stars will pan out or even be eligible this season but if Diaz can attack their development like he has their recruitment we could very well see the return of the swagger and most importantly the W's to Da U.
