    Agree completely. Drives me crazy when the know-nothings try to diminish Dorsey's work by pointing to his job titles, not to mention the "never give a job to a UM alum or legacy" crowd. Would have loved it if God had given Ken Dorsey an arm like Mahomes' arm. I know you're saying KD is on the...

    Honest question for you. Does/has Butch ever considered an AD position? Just curious, as the college game (particularly recruiting) is so much harder on older coaches. I was just watching a bit of the ESPN doc on Parcells/Belichick, and you could really see the toll that coaching took on...

    For the LSU-Miami game, my brother and I hit Franklins on Saturday morning. Got there about 5 am, we were third in line, and we brought tailgate chairs. WELL worth it, got to meet Aaron Franklin. Not only did we order (and eat SOME of) all the meats on the menu, we loaded up a cooler too (not...

    And? The difference is that Mario is a fiery mo-fo who wouldn't let the heat get to him. Unlike Manny.

    Obviously we need to get Alpha Lemonis, Official UM SpokesTweeter, involved...or so some experts on the board would have us believe.

    I don't disagree. But when, in the history of resumes, has a resume NOT been self-serving and overstated? Again, I could go through your post and highlight the word "administrator" instead of "football", and that would be an accurate reflection. She administers. There are other sports (not...

    That scenario is one of my biggest fears. Honestly.

    And some people decide to move back as their kids get older, they miss their family, and they make an adequate amount of money elsewhere. Particularly since the COVID era.

    She's just the AAD. And for all the He-Man-Woman-Haters Club members, it may come as a shock to find out that we have women's sports as well. So a female AAD is not the most outrageous thing in the world, plenty of schools have them. The vast majority of our porsters can't name a single other...

    All good, sir. When it comes to UM, Bruce is like a Page Six gossip columnist. He writes up what he hears, and he prints his best guesses, but he's not the one who is actually out in the clubs with the UM players and coaches. He's occasionally correct, and that's good enough for the job he does.

    You are analyzing this incorrectly. He was absolutely right about the recruits BUT there were intervening events. He was NOT WRONG about the fact that they were about to pick Miami, but the outcome was...tampered with... Sure, if you try to analyze ONLY the outcome, then his info and the...

    Absolute truth. Miami has pumped out some very well-known names in sports media (including Roy Firestone), but I was actually surprised that Feldman has become as big of a deal as he has. When LeBatard ruled the roost at UM, his lapdog was a guy named Todd Wright, for a while he had a...

    Even when he was at UM, he wasn't the King Of All Sports Info. That was LeBatard. Bruce has a lot of general knowledge, but when it comes to UM, I trust certain posters on this board more than I do Bruce. And I really like Bruce.

    Bruce is a good dude and very knowledgeable, but he also went to UM back in the 1980s/early 90s when we were flat-broke. He's just stuck in the old mind-set and doesn't have the awareness that the money situation has changed.

    All good with me, but please trust me, SWFL/CIO is unbelievably well-connected and knowledgeable. And he doesn't talk if he doesn't know. Look, there is ALWAYS the possibility that the BOT pvssies out and does a double-reverse on offering/hiring the Alonzo-Manny combo. BUT IT'S IN PLAY. If...

    And Mario would have to be willing to cash the check. Unless you think Phil is going to stuff the money down Mario's pants.
