    Construction on New Football Facility

    Then try not to behave like someone has to put a gun to your head for you to say something positive. We all know that Frenk sucks. He would have been gone after 5 years if not for COVID. Dan is known as a fund-raising/building AD, not a great hirer of coaches and/or public spokesman. In the...

    What a load of horse****. Men's and women's basketball have been **** good teams recently. Yes, baseball had a late coaching change, and if we don't see significant improvement next year, then it's time for Dan to tell JD's supporters that we gave it a shot, but now it's time to turn outside...

    Construction on New Football Facility

    Maybe. What you "want" and what you "get" are not always the same. Did we not "play to win big" with the men's basketball team? And then we got **** effort from a couple of guys and went from Final Four to "missing the post-season entirely". So we were just "REALLY bad at it". It happens...

    Stop playing into the Mopers' game. It is not an "either/or". There has been no shift of focus. Miami has the donors, the money, and the ability to walk and chew gum at the same time.

    Construction on New Football Facility

    "People asking questions". Yeah, that's what it is. Has nothing to do with people making baseless speculation and/or false statements, but whatever. How about we just have the nitwits "ask questions" every couple of days? I'm sure the construction timetable will be changing exactly that...

    Construction on New Football Facility

    That may well be true, but UM needs to build new facilities just because they need new facilities. The Hecht was too small and outdated in the 1980s, we need more square footage. We just do. Having said that, the ONLY thing that could possibly impact the budget is NOT NIL, but the NCAA...

    Construction on New Football Facility

    Here we go again. "So-and-so said such-and-such, yada yada yada". For the millionth time....this is NOT "one or the other". "The priority list" is based on a lot of other issues, including other construction projects going on in close proximity. Why do people have to be such...

    Construction on New Football Facility

    You know we have some real simple-minded fans who can't process more than one thought at a time and/or believe everything that they read on social media. But you are correct, those funding NIL are not really the same people who will be funding the on-campus buildings. A bit of overlap, but...

    It's also about timing. It isn't necessary to put a couple-hundred million in the bank if it is currently impossible to build MULTIPLE 7-story buildings within a few hundred yards of each other. People try to turn this "NIL vs. Buildings" thing into some sort of "guns vs. butter" academic...

    Construction on New Football Facility

    You are one of the biggest deflecting BS'ers around right now. For the millionth time...it's not the "target" of your criticism...it's your unrelenting and monotonous negativity. That's what makes you a mope. Not because you are on some misguided mission to "keep it real". You don't...

    He is trying to build a brand out of being a cranky mope who likes to "keep it real" by making non-stop negative jokes.

    Construction on New Football Facility

    So...just as I told people... The part of the plan that is physically the farthest away from the Towers will be done first (IPF expansion). The parking garage will likely be done next, as the Towers replacement dorms are completed. Finally, the football facility will be built to connect the...

    Uhhh...to get Coral Gables approval?

    Construction on New Football Facility

    Nah, "money" is not the issue. When we build, it will be as palatial as anything else that Miami builds these days. The issues are twofold. The FAR bigger issue is the decades-old battle to get modern high-rise construction done in Coral Gables on a timely basis. YES, it has been approved...

    Construction on New Football Facility

    We spoke about an issue related to law school alums, but not the law school itself. The new role she has been given involves alumni involvement. I did not realize that UM has only ever had 2 VPs of Student Affairs, Dr. Butler and Pat Whitely. ****.

    Construction on New Football Facility

    But where will they hold Quidditch matches? Yeah, UM has done some interesting stuff over the years. Not sure if you remember the modulars that they built for all the weights and workout equipment during the construction of the newer Wellness Center (when they replaced the old CSR). The...
