    Honestly, the best course of action is to place him on ignore. Do not respond to it. Completely ignore it. It perplexes me to no end, but it derives inordinate satisfaction from: lambasting the team, inciting the masses and then running over to the Gator forum to "brag" about it...

    I do not think that UM players are paying those amounts, but I do think that we carry 4-5 less "star players" than the state schools. We definitely settle for "good students" and wealthy players. Di Mare is open about it. We are lucky with Federman, but also end up opting for Maury over other...

    An endowed scholarship is completely different than "giving money to someone". UM raised $4B billion over two campaigns and donors only allocated $35M from the $4B to athletics. Soffer and her son are on record saying that they had never watched a UM game. The IPF was divine intervention...

    No, that is brazenly illegal. You need to basically offer 75% of all students almost 100% aid. Preferably everyone, but that is not feasible. At that point, you can offer academic scholarships to everyone within top 25% of applicants to the 75th percentile. Anyone that falls outside of those...

    This gnome is connected. He claims "to speak to the Florida AD on the regular". [His call of Frost and Kelly to the Gators was a blip!] Now if you want factual information from the gnome, ask him about the best "tourist spots" in the Keys. The Concierge is a dynamo in regard to the Key's...

    Eskew is receiving a full scholarship and a large part of it was merit-based, academic aid. He is a great student. That helps keep him from MLB because they are giving him $250,000 in aid and players that opt for UM over MLB have earned more the second time they were drafted (Collins, Abreu...

    The typical Miami high school student cannot afford to be a walk-on at Miami. They are charging $2,100 a credit hour and most students take 30 credit hours a year. You need to basically double the amount of aid awarded to ALL students in a given year. From what I understand, Vanderbilt...

    Yes. They are either in denial or are stupid. Then again, when the #1 troll's occupation is "hotel guest services" at his uncle's motel, it is the latter not the former. [Gnome spoke to Florida's AD today....... They hired Scott Frost! Wait! Wait! The AD called the gnome back! Gnome...

    You do not understand the magnitude of the problem. Am not sure how many credit hours baseball players take per annum, but we took 30 credits a year. If we assume 24 credit hours, then that is tuition of $50,400 per annum for UM students (versus $6,507 for FSU and $6,381 for UF). You cannot...

    You literally need billions in new endowment capital. Our trustees view the football team as a nuisance. They are not focused on athletics. UM's website shows tuition of $2,100 per credit hour. Assuming 30 credit hours per annum equates to approximately $63,000 in tuition per year, which is...

    The SEC will never acquiesce. Tuition at SEC schools is ~85% less than at Private Schools. The SEC's Foundations are just able to fund football and basketball payouts (i.e. "bags"). They cannot add baseball to the payroll. As it is, public universities from Georgia, Tennessee, Florida and...

    Do you realize that the AVERAGE scholarship PER student at Vanderbilt is approximately $57,000. Each student is receiving almost a full ride. The only thing "in the toilet" is your reading comprehension. Vanderbilt has ZERO restrictions in baseball. They laugh at the NCAA..... The 11.7 limit...
