I think yams are soaked in sugar goo

Yes, I find candied yams to be vile. Same with sweet potato casserole with marshmallow on top. Sweet Potato pie is another story. Oh, I'm going back and editing my original post for that.

But there is an actual difference between the two. Only one of them is really orange.
 
Pop quiz hot shot. There’s a bomb on the bus. Once the bus goes 50 MPH, the bomb is armed. If it drops under 50, it blows up. What do you do?

Must candy yams otherwise it’s like eating cardboard. I like a baked sweet potato with plenty of butter and cinnamon.

1. Barring injury, can Miami get Robert Burns more involved in the offense at strategic points? With his size he seems like someone that could be plugged in more than the occasional fourth quarter late series.

2. Blast From the Past Question: How much did the school's unwillingness under Shalala to spend set back Randy Shannon and Al Golden when it came to staff, player development, and recruiting? And how much push back did they give? I recall Shannon saying that the couches in the athletic center were the same ones that he had when he was a player.

3. Off Topic: The USS Texas, a 106 year old battleship is set to be moved soon from its berth in San Jacinto to be taken to a drydock facility many miles away to have its lower hull rebuilt. Given the increasingly fragile nature of the museum ship and that this voyage will include traveling in the open seas, how much of chance do you think that the Texas has of making it?

2. There is a difference between annual budgetary spending and capital spending projects. There was no "unwillingness" to spend for coaches under Shalala, though she was not going to pay Nick Saban prices for Randy Shannon. Shalala did believe in finding "up-and-comers", and that was not a concept that was only applied to the Athletic Department, though one can easily argue that the AD is a department where we should buck the "up-and-comer" preference. Shannon can complain about "couches", but I can absolutely tell you that Randy did not devote as much time and effort to fund-raising and wooing the UM boosters that other coaches at other schools did at their own schools. A more relevant issue was the retirement of Paul Dee, with his replacements wielding a fraction of his power and skill (and I'm not even a Paul Dee fan).
 
Pick one player from an old Miami team to put on this team. The rules are: they cannot have played on a team that won a division or conference title, or was in contention for the national championship game. Who ya got?
