    Oh yeah...I ended up in a Baton Rouge jail cell that night. Ask Brit about it.

    I was there the night that one of the RAB guys said that they were going to give out some "free ****e", and then we started the "Free ****e" chant. Do beer companies still do promo nights? Good times.

    Well, there goes all of its former charm.

    The Fancy Rat. That's what I'm going to call it now.

    Give my best to Brit, and let me know when you make another pilgrimmage to Miami. My seats are better than the last time.

    You living out in LA?

    Who actually graduated the U?

    Yeah, whatever you want to believe. We also have a US President who claims he won't be impeached "because he's doing a great job". Tad raised a lot of money and, separately, he was very well-liked. Donna raised a lot of money and, separately, she was very well-liked. UM President isn't some...

    Wait until the new dorms are built. The bathrooms are probably going to have Toto toilets.

    Who actually graduated the U?

    Look, I know Poptimus, and he is a great guy. At the same time, we all have to acknowledge that there were a ton of people who "became" Miami fans in the 80s and 90s and who break out their Miami gear when we win games. I don't think that anyone who invests the time on this board are quite...

    Sounds like we went to UM at the same exact time. Old IBM computer punch cards. You had to register for classes like you were collecting Pokemon cards or something. If you decided to drop a class, you had to turn in the old punch card, and then each college or school would have to reprint new...

    Not true. It was (stupidly) about money. The first offer was to the Admiral.

    Not going to get into a lot of specifics right now. A lot of it is arrogance and entitlement. They treat a lot of people poorly. Foote and Shalala had a lot of differences in their personalities, but both were largely beloved by the UM community. Frenk is not.

    I have a bunch of friends who are closely connected to UM. Employees. Alumni Association. Iron Arrow. Frenk's a piece of work. His wife too. Just remember this thread in a couple of years. We can talk more then. This isn't just gossip, it's a lot of people who wanted Frenk to be a great...

    Frenk is horrendous. His contract will not be renewed. Coral Gables was the first planned community in the USA. George Merrick set aside the land for UM, and the football stadium was supposed to be in the center of campus. However, after the Depression, we needed money, so we dug out all the...

    Who actually graduated the U?

    I acknowledge, I was very fortunate with my timing. And it explains my perspective. I fully expect us to win every year. We have the talent and capability. I am greedy for national championships. I don't really care about conference trophies or bowl trophies. I just care about crystal...

    Who actually graduated the U?

    Fair enough. It's hard being an older guy on this board, so many of the young ones just remember the more recent run. When I started at UM, we just had long benches for the student section, no "butt-hugger" seat covers. Didn't even have a magnetic strip on our Cane cards (didn't have a Cane...

    Who actually graduated the U?

    I call bull**** on both of you claiming that 2000-2003 was the best era to be a student at UM (as far as football is concerned): 1986 - (my first undergrad year) - UM v. Penn State, Miami finishes #2 1987 - UM wins national championship 1988 - UM robbed in the Notre Dame game, finishes #2 1989...
