I go to high school football games and go where The U has committed players. I've been going for many years. I remember when St. Thomas played North East in a district playoff game in 1983. North East had 3 players that ended up in the NFL but Michael Irvin destroyed North East, it was a man amongst boys. I enjoyed every minute that Irvin played for the U. Lately things have changed drastically, players I watch and commit come to the U and I anticipate an outcome similar to Irvin's success, but alas the Portal exists and many end up never getting a chance to show what I saw when they played in High School. I have also followed recruiting and February used to be excitement in the off season, seeing who COMMITTED. Now I'm not blaming the players for leaving as I've been told many are asked to leave. I hope TVD wins the Heisman, Jacurri is runner up and Chaney rushes for 2000 yards IF they were asked to leave!

Also the destruction of the ACC is disturbing and seems that fsu being butt hurt has caused turmoil and confusion because no one knows who is going where. Honestly I've thought all along the ACC has become a valid football league with no real weak teams and all the sports that are not football related are super, I think that is why Notre Dame picked the ACC for all those other sports yet they schedule lots of ACC teams for football. They play 4 in 2024. But what matters is where will we end up or will the ACC stay intact? I hope fsu leaves and joins the frigid BIG! I was told that when fsu joined the Big East they were assured they would get a warm weather schedule. Hope they freeze!

Also again is the NIL which requires no added comments as it has made college ball a professional league. Since we seem to have immersed deeply into it will we get our monies worth? 13 million dollars for a freshman QB? by the gator? I wonder how much Arch Manning is getting? Mercenaries are not as much fun as dedicated orange and green bleeding Hurricanes

I've always been for change when it improves a situation, the league turmoil, the NIL and portal are destroying something beautiful!.

I agree with a lot of what you said. The reality though is that complaining about it won’t get Miami anywhere. They have to keep up with the times and adjust just like everyone else…
 
I'm disgusted myself - halftime is too short to whiz behind long lines, get another refreshment - again behind a long line and back to your seat - and it's just ruining the game of college football.

And recruiting - recruits should be required to select five teams of their choice, written on identical slips of paper, and must draw one out of a hat on one designated day - held above his head. And wherever he drew - he could never leave or transfer - this could save universities lots of money normally spent on recruiting, and be available for schools to fund high competition curling teams.

And I recall UM had some interesting games when independent - we get our **** together, start winning - we go independent - and keep ALL our revenues - and could afford a girls curling team.

Yeah everything UM football is turning to ****.

The GOAT strikes again! By GAWWWWd, the man never misses!! Well said, even though I stopped halfway through, could not have agreed more!
 
Feel your pain. Unfortunately, Canes have had to adjust or get left behind. Don’t like the mercenary players and game, but there’s no going back.
