DON’T KID YOURSELF

Fellas think about this for a sec..... we can be like the Georgia of the ACC.

What get these recruits in going to UGA is the city, Hot Atlanta -the culture, football tradition, and of course the bags. We have all of that here in the city of Miami at the university of Miami in particular. Maybe except the bag game but with this rule that now plays in to affect . We will be known as the HOT... MAGIC CITY! Even our Dj Williams was BLOWN AWAY his experience going to the UGA vs ND game with his friend per Podcast OTH w/Brett R. Season 2 Ep 7(GO LISTEN ) He went on to state that the Marketing at UGA was unbelievable!

We will Change game people. Do you know how much tuition cost at the University of Miami? We can have leverage with that just alone when we recruit because we are a private university . Technically they will have to figure what is distributed because our tuition alone is higher than any normal state schools and universities. It may have larger payouts if this is indeed the case. The SEC good ole boys do not want this to happen because it levels out the playing fields. This is bigger than you can only imagine people. College football is a business and we may have gotten richer.
Go Canes!

Anyone thinking this will benefit us is likely to be very wrong. NCAA refuses to care about SEC cheating but now suddenly would let other markets in on the game? Nah. They protect their cash cows and last time I checked Alabama wasn't a big market for jack outside of incest
 
GET A CLUE, young school Cane. Miami, Florida Hurricane football USE TO HAVE A national following, but that's no longer the case!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dUh.

It is NOT about attendance, the past, nor our tradition, nor our paltry 15 year record since 2006.

It is about DMA, the brand of the City of Miami, Reach/Frequency, a relatively limited number of fanatics who are scions and sons of billionaires.......

We have enough people that will pay, as long as it is legal. We will receive better players, win more and gain more attention. This will translate into even more money.

UM's illicit recruiting budget is basically $0 at present. Alabama and Georgia are at $5M and Arkansas and LSU are close to that as well.

All things being equal, do you chose South Beach or Tuscaloosa.

Think of the marketing shoot. They photograph you on the beach next to a model with the Ocean behind you, or they can photograph you in Alabama next to a tractor, with some dude in a white hood looking through a gap in the trees.

Look, I spoke to a Georgetown Trustee today. They are planning to "break the bank" on Atlanta, DC, NYC, Philadelphia recruits. My brother's wife said "same strategy as 'Nova".

This is about marketing not tradition.

Lol this dude doesn’t see the bigger picture. How many people are in Miami? How many people with business that could benefit from an endorsement are in Miami? It’s simple, big market schools and big booster schools win. It’s no different than NBA players choosing not to resign with their small market team and leaving millions on the table to sign with a big market team for the opportunities they bring off the court.

But a kid from Miami can start making money on his likeness as soon as he signs on the dotted line because he is known locally from his pop warner and high school days. At those schools he has to get on the field and make plays before he has that opportunity. Might take 2 years before he sees the field there. Advantage Miami with local stars.
To play devils advocate.... can’t he do the same thing at UGA, LSU or Bama? He is a legend so the locals buy at number 7 Georgia jersey? I may be missing a point or two but just curious. I can happily be educated.
 
Lol.

Id play the part of an agent and sell the glitz and glam of a city like Miami over Happy Valley, Tuscaloosa, Gainesville, Athens, Lansing , or any other podunk small town any day.

If you do it right, the school can ‘use’ the city of Miami as a HUGE selling point to the recruit. What recruit wouldn’t want to start selling his brand from the city of Miami?? It’s not a tough sell...just gotta see the big picture and sell the kids.
 
I see a lot of posts claiming that the new NCAA rule allowing players to profit from the use of their likeness will help Miami. Not so fast my friend. To the contrary, it will serve to benefit Bama, Ohio State, Michigan, Florida, LSU, Notre Dame, Texas, etc, etc., in other words the “big name” schools and the “big campus” schools. If a top notch high school QB can go to Ohio State with 45,000 potential customers on campus, and 100,000 potential customers going to every game, and literally millions of alumni, OR, he can go to Miami with 15,000 potential customers on campus, and maybe 40,000 at a game on a good day, and not even 10% of Ohio State’s alumni, where will that QB sell the most T-shirts and make the most money? And believe me, money will always win out over sandy beaches, nightlife, and warm weather. It just became much more likely that the chances of Miami winning another national championship have dramatically decreased. Naturally I hope I’m wrong. Time will tell.
Whatever type of lawyer you are I hope nobody I know has hired you.
 
No one knows yet what the rules or regulations or if their will even be a cap. But one thing is 💯 sure. Bama and the rest of the usual suspects will find a way to break them to their advantage.
I’m sure the if t Boone Pickens were around he would be buying a fck ton of jerseys right now.
However, there are a lot of you on here that don’t understand how much this city resonates nationally and internationally.
No one in south America or Europe is gonna wear a **** Alabama jersey. But they sure as **** will wear a Miami one. Alabama has not resonated well with the rest of America the way Miami did and likely will if we win. Maybe there are some marketing gurus on here that have access to merchandise sales. I can guarantee that their sales are concentrated heavily to the south. If Miami makes the playoffs we’re selling gear everywhere.
This administration if it’s worth a **** better be getting the sharpest minds in the business to start marketing the sht of this school. Adidas better have a tent pitched outside every sofla high right now.
I agree with what you’re saying. Add the fact that UM has current billionaire BOTs that could’ve bought out ol Boone Pickens 2-3 times over. There’s no reason we should be down for long. The change will benefit Miami.
 
I can see how this can work for Miami, once the money gets flowing, we wont be able to pay up front like the big schools, but we'll have more money flowing with the big size market
 
You my dude and all but you tripping on this one homie. Big markets have a lot more business.

Bama, uga and the schools of that ilk will always get theirs. But schools like UM and Usc with their markets will have a lot of options. Gives us a fighters chance, just keeping 5-6 extra studs home a class is enormous.
I hope u right cribby I hope u are man and this works it for us because we need this to work in our favor if not we will be who we are forever.
 
Big market teams boosting a players profile is just a fact jack. That's why Ryan Tannenhill was swimming in money after being QB for the dolphins for so many years. Or why you couldn't go anywhere in town without seeing actual proven players like Cameron Wake's face plastered everywhere.

Yep. Playing in a big market team automatically means $$$$$$ for players
So Rutgers about to rise from this with this rule.

If you want to actually be good at your job you need to extract your personal opinion out of the matter. I'm sure they have their own marketing pitches that say similar stuff.
i.e. Do you want to be photographed in a stadium that is far away from campus where only 20,000 fans show up every week, or do you want to be photographed in a stadium with 110,000 people on campus with amazing pageantry, where you will be competing for national championships and where every toddler will know your name and wear your jersey?

This will not benefit Miami. At least not for a while; bigger markets may actually eventually win through though. I'd be interested to see how different markets view sport celebrities of differing sports, such as how a tennis star is viewed in the northeast vs the south, etc. I think that would be critical, no? Because we are truly a football school, which means we would mainly be concerned with how college football athletes are viewed in the market. Why would the company you're working for as a marketing person now pay more than a place in Tuscaloosa? I'm pretty sure it means much more to them.

You are definitively a Bama fan.

You also possess zero knowledge about marketing in the modern era. I mean zero. A football stadium in Tuscaloosa will NEVER resonate with the TRP that you are targeting. Do you know what TRP stands for?

Anyone that thinks this helps the big dollar schools does not understand marketing.

The big schools already possess colossal budgets. We are at $0. UM can literally outsource Spend (i.e. advertising dollars) to third parties. A top player in a coastal city like Miami will make commensurately more than a player in KKK land. Much more...

You trash everything UM and adore Bama. Go to the KKK site..............

It honestly hadn't occurred to me that anyone would think this benefits Miami.

Except Miami media market is way bigger. If schools in big media markets become powerhouses then it becomes nfl lite and if I am making money I’m spending it in la, miami, nyc....not in East bumfk ohio or Alabama etc
