    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    Did the on campus life for two years, and I was ready to move off campus. Lived right off of Granada, loved it. And yes, ACS got on my nerves as an undergrad.

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    Yep, the commuter life is a unique one. I lived right off campus, so I was always plugged into what was going on, even when I was in grad/law school.

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    I grew up in Dallas, moved to Miami to attend The U, and I knew by the end of my freshman year that I had no interest in staying to raise a family there. South Florida, despite the glitz and glamour is very backwards in regards to a lot of things. After Law School, I made tracks to Arizona...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    You are pointing to two different games, and also failing to grasp the point I'm trying to make. It's easy for this fanbase to come out and get hype for a big game. They did that when times were great in the OB as well. The problem is that in that SAME SEASON(2017), you had a half full...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    Keep making up excuses for this fanbase. The reason why Miami's administration has that reputation as being cheap is that Miami's fanbase is cheap, and expects the school to pick up the slack for a fanbase that has shown, even when times are good that they won't spend. Again, look at our...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    You are spot on about grad students. When I was working on my JD, **** near everyone was from So. Florida. Few people moved down just to attend law school. I remember my 1L group, maybe a couple of people didn't have existing ties to the area, and one of those moved down because her spouse...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    Tell me you haven't been to the University of Miami, without telling me. There won't be an enrollment increase because we are a landlocked University that can't really expand. Yes, a winning football program helps with drawing in applications, but the benefits our fanbase love to tout are also...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    When I said that USC was urban Alabama, I was referring to the fact that they have a ton of resources and have a very localized, passionate alumni base. People forget that the typical USC alum stays in LA after graduation, giving them a link to the campus. It's a lot easier to fundraise when...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    Where is this money coming from? The reason why USC can pay what they are going to pay is that they have donors that are willing to step up. If a donor at Miami is willing to step up, the school will pay it. Mark Richt got paid more than Golden, because someone stepped up and made the...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    USC has a significantly larger donor pool, they can dedicate resources, BECAUSE THEY HAVE A DEEP, DIVERSE DONOR POOL. USC is a private school, that has the demographics and resources of a state school. That's something Miami doesn't, nor will ever have. USC alumni DOMINATE SoCal, they run...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    That's about right, although Oregon thanks to Nike money is a better job. Miami is the kind of job that the right person does well, but it isn't a job for the typical coach.

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    Miami has NEVER been a top 5 job. EVER. Why? Because the top jobs are ones in which you don't have any obstacles. Miami is and will always be a small private school with a shallow donor pool and a fanbase that is cheap as **** and will turn on you in a heartbeat. This is also a school in...

    Where we Fall in the HC Pecking Order

    SC and LSU are superior jobs because they offer unlimited resources. Miami is behind those two jobs. Miami is a job that is unique because you have some of the things that can make for a great job(Availability to a local recruiting hotbed), nice campus, tradition), but you also have to work...
