Michael Irvin Talks Miami Hurricanes Season Opener

that's what we need somebody that makes the work work hey guys I just got in was watching the game over at playmaker you saw that you saw that that's all I got to say I'm not you know I just let me just say congratulations to coach crystal ball and his staff in the University of Miami football team for playing in the opener like that going in the swamp playing in the opener like they did lot of noise lot of people will be asking the question is Miami back back to what we used to be it's hard to ever get back to that one of the greatest that was Pro no I would consider it to be the greatest time ever uh in college football we may never we may never see those days like that again in Miami but we can get in we can get into hunt we can get in the fight we can get right on in the middle of this thing and this year with this team we're going to be in the middle of it I'm telling you what I saw and and let me tell you how I watched the game all right I remember couple years ago when Miami open up my Miami open up against the Alabama we were all excited when I got to that game Bryce young was about to get his first start I remember the first throw of the game I was sitting on the sideline I flipped the coin I had on the jacket had glh on it given to me by some people at the University of Miami GH on the side of right on my jacket it means greatest living hurricane Ray L head Reed you know they all bark wor sa to my boys they all bark at that but but somebody gave it to me so I I'll just leave that out there like that like that but let me tell you I watched that game BR Sean came out first play he rolled right through all the way left missed the guy horribly and I thought oh we we we may have a chance here beating Alabama of course that didn't happen Alabama ran us off the field score 44 the 13 and I it was 21 September 21 4413 I was so embarrassed leaving they like wow everybody was talking about his Miami close to being back Alabama just shut that noise down but now here we are a few years later and and the difference is the difference is this when I was in that game and I watched Alabama and Miami I promise you guys I've never seen it and I've been watching a lot of football when I saw Alabama lineman and our lineman I said oh my God oh my God I mean this it didn't even look like they belong not on the same field not even in the same game nowhere near each other it was such a drastic difference now when I went to Legends camp this year in Miami and I was talking to all the guys and and I went over and spent some time with the offensive line I said okay I went back talked with Coach chrst ball I said yeah coach we got something this year cuz that line dude that offensive line every one of them they were like 67 68 69 all three I said now that's what Alabama look like over us in in in 21 now we got us some of those we yeah yeah we got us some of those those kind of people those that real line it's a real old line and I'm telling you the difference was that old line and the day Miami scored to 41 and we be and Bo only got the 177 you see so it flipped all I told those big boys I said we go as you go as long as you go and as long as you go oh my God that means you're going to give y'all saw him cam Ward time cam Ward is the truth he's the truth I love it I I when I went to Miami of course we all had dinner with Cam me CAM Bane all us we all had dinner man and oh my God the young dude I told him I said man this here now stepping into you is different now he's different but but he is kind of a throwback he's a throwback kind of dude he could have played with us I mean with us I mean them real hurricanes that you know when we were doing what we did you know when we Ruled the Land see cam fits right in with that mentality with that real I I I I can give you a quick story about it you know I one time I heard heard one of the receivers from the U was was was throwing in Fort lale running rout with Lamar Jackson cam Ward and the guys were going on the field to throw in Miami and cam called the receiver he said man where are you we we're going out to throw he said oh I'm up here working out with Lamar Jackson two time NFL MVP Lamar Jackson you know go get him some Instagram shots working out with littlear Jackson going post it everybody gonna be talking about it Cam said to him dog you ain't going to be catching no Pastors in Baltimore from Lamar Jackson this year and if you don't get your ass back to Miami and get on the field with us you ain't going to be catching no pass in Miami either and hung the phone up that's what we need that's what we need somebody that makes the work work somebody that knows how to pull it get your butts up here let's get this work in we got to make the practice feel the hardest thing that we do if we make this hard the games will be easy that's how you put up 41 points today against Florida that's how you open up a season we got us a quarterback peeps we got us a quarterback 26 for 35 385 yards three TDS one interception okay one interception but that's okay I'm telling you we got us some quarterback and his more and he bu his time I love it man he every time he went moving and running around he never took his eyes off up the field so so so he's a runner that's not looking to just run he's in the mindset of a Patrick momes I will move by time do what I have to do but I'm all I will always be looking up the field that's what we got right now budy we got something on offense with that dude I'm going need my guys outside make some some more plays we'll need a few more plays but right now that was a great start that was a great start and all I know as I had little things dancing and my head things Dancing in my Head because of Cam things Dancing in my Head the time the time has been so long I just don't know it's been so long it's been so long but I had some things that Dancing in my Head things some things Dancing in my Head Dancing in my Head
