LMAO! This tells me the semenhole lawyers are clueless.

Great observation about Silvers. I recall hearing about her taking the Chair and at the time, didn’t seem like a bid deal. But with her background, she should definitely have great insight into the media implications in this mess.

No doubt other factors -academics, reputation, etc. - will factor in to any decision but the main impetus of expansion/realignment is football.

Being it’s MAINLY about football, that’s why I questioned how UNC is considered more attractive than us.

At the end of the day, this is all about college football and the revenue it generates. Sure, some of the tangibles like AAU factor in, but ultimately it’s about how does/can your FOOTBALL program elevate revenue. It’s interesting that UNC is considered above Miami. Their football program has...

Excellent comparison. I just can’t believe Rad doesn’t have a game plan. He’s been around a long time and should know the landscape as well as anyone. Doesn’t mean it won’t be easy but sometimes laying low and letting others stir the pot can result in beneficial results eventually.

Many hope this is the case. Just because Rad is currently being a good ACC soldier doesn’t mean he’s not paying attention to the big picture - at least we hope he is. Because of Miami’s place in the pecking order, taking a conservative approach may gain some good will due to not ****ing off the...

A 1 year winning season will not change the optics of the Miami football program. Recent history is not on our side. Is Rad defending the ACC a smokescreen or does he truly believe the ACC is a viable option? Remember, he was at Clemson for 10 years and knows what it looks like. It may very...

You’ve been all over this with the most reasonable takes. I agree with this “peaking order” and somewhat proves my point that Miami is lower on the totem pole than several others for any number of reasons that have been discussed here ad nauseum.

Comparatively speaking, Miami is low in the pecking order. Higher than the bottom feeders of the ACC, but lower than FSU, Clemson, UNC, and a couple of others. That’s that stark reality and unless the Miami powers that be are working miracles behind the scenes, Miami will be left with their...

Fact of the matter is Miami doesn’t have much leverage in this situation and being a private school is a distinct disadvantage. Not having much success on the football field for over 20 years decreases Miami’s appeal even further. The state schools have the political entities that will back...

If I had an X, I’d post this on his.

You’ve provided some of the most consistent, knowledgeable, and trust worthy info related to this topic. I don’t have an X account so I can’t, and obviously don’t, follow this fella as closely as others. In general, people like this guy get their “inside” info from sources not directly...

Unless this guy is Sankey or Pititti, or at least sitting in the same room during meetings with them, he’s getting all his info passed through any number of hands. It’s like what happens here on CIS countless times on any number of topics. Speculation and conjecture is thrown around as facts and...

Makes one wonder why ESPN wants the document/s sealed.

Insult to zucchini.

Seems things are moving more swiftly than originally expected. UDub and UO to the B1G really threw a wrench into a lot of “plans”.

Michigan will put 105K butts in the seats in a blizzard. Same with other schools in the B1G. How many will show up at HR in OCT?

Even beyond that, they have a long history to fall back on with a large alumni base that supports them come **** or high water. Them being able to remain independent in football and thrive speaks volumes to their brand recognition.
