Deal that Flake James made with Central Michigan

[MotoSniper]

OOC schedule continues to be a joke.

True, but can you imagine of our OOC schedule was the likes of Washington State, Michigan, Oregon, Bama....oh wait...

 

[Empirical Cane]

Fairly standard payment.

Sad thing is this though: how will Miami feel when the Fightn' Chippewahs pull an App St v Michigan?

The thing I've noticed about this place is when times are tough, people literally invent things to ***** about. With so many real issues, why complain about something that is standard operating procedure?

Bama is paying $6.71 million to have four teams to come in and take a pounding.

Please don't compare us to Bama in anything.

 

[paksat]

It's a fvckin waste of a game.

Give me Oregon in a neutral site like St. Louis

usually i'd say FCK YEH

with rich I'd say GO FCK YOURSELF

 

[Go Canes!!]

It's not just Bama, it's the price being paid all over. Actually less.

Agree, should actually be a lot less for a MAC team to come to SFL for a vacation and due some recruiting while they are here.
I wonder how Flake negotiated it.

So we get mad when we travel to play these schools and mad when we pay them to play at our place?

Cool. We like to be mad

 

[KevinCaneFace]

This is a dumb thing to b'tch about.

Any topic, any place, all the time.

Not really, we are incredibly prone to playing down to the competition, so it provides some excitement for some fans.

I love it when one of those teams get paid a ton to come lose and then win. Coaches can get fire for that. Think about it. Will we still be on a losing streak then?

We desperate

 

[jkdood]

Is this the same school that used to be called Central University of Michigan? Wonder why they changed their name?

 

[We the Boss]

Miami announced last month it would host Central Michigan, a MAC school, at Hard Rock Stadium on Sept. 21, 2019. The Hurricanes will pay the Chippewas $1.4 million for the game, according to CMU’s contract.

Miami will pay in two installments: $600,000 due to Central Michigan before June 15, 2019 and the remainder due before Feb. 15, 2020.

This is the least of our complaints.

Could you imagine the crowds chanting back and forth in a game between them and South Carolina?

My concern is that Miami will lose out 2018 regular season and then lose the bowl (as an eligibility waiver invitee).

Highly likely (at this point) Miami gets CRUSHED by UF in the opener.

MAYBE limps out a win against CMU, then loses out 2019.

I take no joy in saying above, it's f[]cking tragic, but my observations tell me Miami has solidly entered the Rice/Tulane/SMU tier.

I very much want to be wrong and proven otherwise. I'll be the first to say it and loudest.

Perfect time for another tRicht extension here.

This guy has us going 1-11 and on the same level as Rice. Pretty rational.

15 years worth of mad, and counting.

Ok. Let's see how the Ws-Ls play out.

I'll be first in line to say I was wrong. It happens.

Well actually, it doesn't ever.

My therapist says I have self-esteem issues.

Hahahaha.
