They don’t give a rats *** about a UM that hasn’t won a single thing of importance in over 20 years. I think you’ll see the fan base grow (or regrow in a lot of cases) pretty quickly, especially locally. Which is why I said 2-3 years of this new program investment paying dividends is what I see...

I think it’ll take UM 2-3 years to support publicly, which should make it an easier sell esp with a program resurgence in that time. That also gets all designs lined up, concerns like infrastructure addressed, for a vote. I think it does have to be before that vote though, to actually give it a...

Lmfao. The infrastructure for getting people into and out of the park is for sure the biggest issue, but it’s addressable. And I’m sure HKS has that in mind, and is already working on various potential proposals to package along with the stadium itself.

This is the only reasonable take tbh

Yes, he’s making shockingly wacky claims and I’m glad we can agree on that. As for the suggestion that Ruiz is pushing this idea on his own with no University buy in, I think that’s very unlikely. There’s no reason they would not be onboard with showing interest, listening, and evaluating...

Corben is not close to right here. Corben didn’t say “Miami doesn’t support this Ruiz stadium initiative”. Corben said “Miami doesn’t want a stadium” because they have HRS. Rad and other prominent university administrators have made public comments to the contrary. So Corben is wrong. The idea...

No the endowment doesn’t make sense because a stadium isn’t going to be built with cash in the bank, but financed. MAYBE Ruiz would donate some smaller amount if it didn’t happen. Maybe he doesn’t. We don’t know. It’s not the schools money so there’s not an opportunity cost.

This would be a viable argument if it was UM’s money building the stadium. It is not. It’s faaaaar from automatic that Ruiz just gives the school the equivalent cash in hand if the stadium doesn’t get made, and by far I mean 99% sure not happening. The options actually on the table right now...

No no Corben says that UM having options will ruin their leverage with HRS lmaoooo

Wait wut. This is literally the stupidest **** I’ve ever heard him say lol. That’s literally the opposite of how leverage works. You have leverage when you have *more* potential options, not when the counter party knows they’re the only option lmao. Corben is off the rails with baseless...

I was very skeptical about this even being important but the location and renderings look great. Can it happen? Idk. I think 5% chance is pretty pessimistic, with the private money and county rather than city being involved I’d very roughly guess closer to 15 or 20%. Will be a tough sell to the...

Almost spit out my kefir
