Miami fans are saying he has already been kicked off the team for missing meetings and workouts.

I didn't think it was true because he just signed with our NIL last week. Why would we be signing him and giving him money if he was in trouble.

I thought it was a rumor but then I saw on Facebook some of it is true he is already having the same problems at Florida that he had at Colorado.

Wasn't there a video of coach Sanders saying that McClain was lazy and never logged on to study the playbook?

Our coaches knew what they were getting and instead of waiting to make him prove he has changed we throw our precious NIL money at him.

It's getting old. Every couple of weeks something happens with us. It's like we are an accident waiting to happen.

From a personal standpoint, I like Cormani. He isn't a bad young man at all. Part of his problem is having people like this around him - not attempting to hold him accountable. If player A misses a workout or is late for a meeting, it isn't great, but it isn't the end of the world. With McClain's recent past history, he can't afford those types of missteps. He needs to be everywhere 15 minutes early, eager and ready to go.

When I was a 10 year old kid I got my first subscription to Sports Illustrated. Vince Lombardi was then the best coach in the NFL and he was interviewed and gave his 10 rules for success and #1 is the only one I remember but it basically said, " If you show up exactly on time for a meeting or anything in life, that means you are already 5 minutes late", in other words DONT BE LATE. I have used that for all of my 70+ years and I would advise anyone just starting out to apply that to their life. I hope this young man can learn from his mistakes at Colorado, and become a success for us in Gainesville and for anything else he attempts in life.

I thought it was fifteen minutes, not five.
The clocks in Lambeau are still set fifteen minutes ahead of time.
