Yep. Foote cost us Coach Ham as well.

How dare you say this, when WrongSaidFred just looks at the coincidental outcomes during Foote's 20 years, and Craptical Envelope yammers on about Foote's "11 second" effort to get rid of the football program? Why are you using facts and contemporaneous media reports of actual words that came...

We'll make this simple. I understand that you don't like my style. I don't really care what you think, but I understand it. I have asked you, and WrongSaidFred, to provide ANY evidence to support your false claims. Other posters, including a Maude, have asked the same. You have provided...

Look, you and WrongSaidFred can play your silly games, where you accuse people of things for which you are guilty. The funny bit is where both of you try to call other people "arrogant", when it is the two of you who are bragging about your jobs and your income level, and sneering at everyone...

Nothing, outside of Craptical's "11 second" claim. Foote started in March 1981. His first acts were to cut the size of the undergraduate student body, to reinstate the School of Architecture, and to form the School of Communication. Those were Foote's highest priorities. One year after Foote...

Hey, genius...there is no such thing as a 20-for-20 on ESPN. That's how dumb you are. I don't have "rumors". I cited multiple issues from the 1980s and 1990s earlier in this thread. Things that I know about, because I was actually at UM at the time. Again, not from "rumors", but from actual...

I'm sure you have the BoT minutes of this 11 second discussion. Yeah, you don't. It doesn't take much for a dipsh!te such as yourself to state something that you have no evidence of. There was no serious, organized effort to drop football at Miami from the 1980s onward. Sure, maybe Tad had...

Hilarious. So you pretend like you know the difference between causality and coincidence...AND THEN YOU IMMEDIATELY REFUSE TO PRESENT ANY EVIDENCE OF WHAT FOOTE DID TO "CAUSE" THE FOOTBALL TEAM TO SUCCEED AND YOU REST YOUR CASE ON THE COINCIDENCE THAT THE TEAM WON WHEN FOOTE WAS PRESIDENT...

So you're mad because I pointed out that the discussion of shutting down UM football took place in the 1970s, and Tad Foote was hired in 1981? Feel free to continue to spin your fact-free myths. While your unintelligent buddy WrongSaidFred upvotes your inaccurate porsts.

Yeah, you are a solid poster and one of the guys who doesn't oversimplify this issue. You understand that we need JUST ENOUGH vision/leadership from a President. In all honesty, I think the only time we've had a tight harmony between UM President and UM AD (since 1980) was when Paul Dee was...

Edward Thaddeus Foote II never got a single "RESULT" on the football field. It's statements like that that expose your ignorant buffoonery. You simply cannot distinguish between causality and coincidence. Neither Lou Saban nor Howard Schnellenberger were hired by Edward Thaddeus Foote II...

Instant loss of credibility. Billy did not spin some "bullsh!t tale". While the discussion of shutting down UM football PRECEDED Tad Foote, it is also true that Tad Foote both actively and passively demonstrated his dislike for the UM football team and coaches throughout his entire 20 year...

That's a big "no" on Frenk. I understand your points on the "hands-off" approach. But we also lose the advantages of vision and leadership. "Hands off" doesn't work when Gilligan is running the Athletic Department. We need a new President who can give the administrative side of the Athletic...

Nope. Wrong.
