    well my original post in this thread had the youtube link, but I guess that guy had his channel taken down. Buzzkill 1990 Cal was another game where our guys got buck wild and put on a show. Erickson took a TON of heat after that game lol

    The story is that they basically surrounded his cage and taunted him, lol. Now if Mike the Tiger gets loose, you would've seen our team speed all over

    OC have you ever gone back and watched this game again? Our guys are hilarious with all the dance routines they were doing, from the group 'bunny hop' in the endzone after Charles Pharms INT, to 'the Troop Dance' to some of their other choreographed stuff they did. Our guys were great that night...

    One of my favorite aspects of Miami football in that independent era was how they went on the road to play so many solid programs. Just off the top of my head: Michigan, Michigan St, LSU, FSU, Florida, Notre Dame, Auburn (neutral setting), South Carolina, Maryland, BYU, Arizona, Arizona State --...

    LOL, he had fumble issues with the Rams, too (as a resident of LA, I was a life long fan)....

    LOL, I meant 'can believe it', it was clear to the naked eye that Vinny was Nolan Ryan to Walsh's Greg Maddux as it related to arm strength and velocity. It's amazing that Walsh was basically one horrific call at South Bend from being 24-0 as the starter with back to back national titles...

    There's a story that as Miami fell behind to FSU 19-3, that Erickson was actually warming up in the bullpen. Well, glad JJ never made that call, lol. As for Craig, I give him credit, when there were reports that George was coming to Miami, he basically said, 'Well, if you come to a place like...

    It's interesting, Walsh told me during our conversation that the one issue he really had with Erickson's offense was he felt it left the QB's very vulnerable. But Walsh didn't have a great arm, but honestly, his football IQ was off the charts, Craig had better tools but I dont think UM wins the...

    Those Olines of the late 80's under the guidance of Tony Wise(one of our best assistant coaches, ever) were so underrated and good. They were usually on the smallish side, but they were always a cohesive unit that always played well in big games. And most of those guys were players who didn't...

    they played one of the toughest schedules in the 80's for any program (vs pre-season #1 in FSU, which lost 1 game, Big 10 champion in Michigan, SWC champion in Arkansas, co-SEC champion in LSU, Big 8 champion, Nebraska, and a bowl team in BYU. The one loss, the robbery at South Bend by one...

    I loved how he would flex out his backs(basically making it into a spread set) and he loved using them down the seams. I know a few guys that played for Stevens, said that he was basically a genius in terms of the passing game at the collegiate level/ Steve Walsh told me that if Stevens...

    Another blast from the past -- Miami vs LSU 1988...

    another personal favorite of mine. Miami comes into Death Valley and plays one of LSU's best teams in the 80's(IIRC, they were the co-SEC champs, and this roster was littered with future NFL guys) and just absolutely blows them out, 44-3. To me, this game is an example of why Steve Walsh and...
