From the UM website: For the sixth year in a row the University of Miami was ranked in the top 50 in U.S. News & World Report’s annual Best Colleges issue. In the 2015 report, UM is ranked No. 48 in the National Universities category. Under President Shalala’s leadership the University...

Look, you are a liar. You don't know about the history of UM. You have no idea when we were Sun Tan U and when we were not. Even worse, your "links" do not "corroborate" anything. Miami was not a Top 50 school prior to Shalala. That's just a historical fact. All of your lies won't change...

You are clueless. Absolutely clueless. Did you ACTUALLY believe that I was talking about setting up "operating rooms" next to the snack bars? You're the one who is behaving as if you are 10 years old. Go to Doak Walker Stadium. Then you can see how you can build classrooms and meeting rooms...

You are full of ****e. I started at UM in the 1980s. We were ranked 81st when I applied, 79th when I started. We got as high as the mid-30s under Donna Shalala, and we have just recently slipped outside of the Top 50 (2019 ranking is #53). As for the history of our campus, I know it very...

I am a UM alum, have been for decades. I know exactly what is going on. And I am not saying that maintaining a football stadium is NOT a big job, I'm just pointing out that dozens of universities do so without it becoming "overwhelming" (your word, not mine).

Wow, it's so great when you know all the answers. If you think that either Ross or Beckham will agree to part-time schedules for Miami, you have another thing coming. We haven't even fully finalized our 2019 schedule, while the MLS schedule is already done. Who do you think will have...

Oh, sure, the University of Florida is nearly bankrupt because of their white-elephant stadium.

As an alum, I know **** well that we can raise the money, or cut a check, or anything else we want to do. The basketball arena was LONG-delayed, from back in the days when Ryder was the name-sponsor. It was built, and opened, when we were in the Big Least and had very little conference...

A bunch of worthless word-salad words. Do you get a nickel every time you use the word "impetus"? And could you make up any more misleading BS than the "vast majority of fans and key decision makers are more than satisfied by our current stadium"? This simply is not true. Though compared to...

This is ridiculous. You are, literally, comparing apples to oranges. The issue is not whether you have "literally never had an issue" parking. The issue is factual, the Stadium is reducing parking by building the Tennis Center and the Dolphins Practice facility. That is happening. And you...

Our new dorms are going to cost a billion dollars. For six months a year. Miami is made of money.

2025 is SIX YEARS AWAY. People act like we are locked into some sort of 99 year lease. And the Dolphins are going to want us to sign some sort of 25 year extension after that. So let's plan something now, while retail is crashing and burning, and let's get it done. I mentioned ONE location...

Casinos are legalized in Florida. And it is a very simple proposition, you find some other land that will make them happier. (As just an example), the old Miami Herald land was going to be used for a casino (a foreign-owned one that wanted to build a massive casino). There's land in Wynwood...

The Dolphins keep taking more and more of the parking lot away. First it was the Tennis Center. Next up is the new Dolphins practice facility. Where have you been? The parking lot is getting smaller and smaller.

You really don't know what in the **** you are talking about. And you are ridiculously overmatched when it comes to using logic. No, I did not compare the "city approval process". I compared the ongoing negativity and bad attitude among UM fans. As for what you know about UCF (which is all...

Ridiculous. It's basically the same neighborhood as 2 miles to the east (where the baseball stadium is). Miami has been ramming a soccer stadium into the area around Culver (until recently). Not sure why you think we need DOT funding, the 836 is already in place, and Douglas and LeJeune are...

Why aren't we getting it? Because we don't try? Or we cut off conversation about it? So we are supposed to wait for Miami-Dade to keep yapping about the MetroRail extension to the county line? And the years it will take? And the massive amount of money involved? Retail is getting crushed...

Never understand why people state their own personal thoughts as absolutes. If it's such a monumental waste of money, why did UCF do it and USF is trying to do it? There are lots of advantages, some monetary, and some control-oriented. Either build a "satellite campus" with UM fundraising...

For one game. For one game. It is still not very well suited for college football, far from campus, diminishing parking, etc. I don't hate it. But if we had a place of our own, it would be better. Look, we can sit around and claim that this "can never happen". But it could. There is...

Forget Tropical. Send Blake an e-mail and ask him to get moving on the Central Shopping Plaza.
