If there’s no Football

Also, love how people say if there’s no football season, that might be the end of football for Miami and a few other P5 schools.

In what universe does it make sense to discontinue, permanently, a source of revenue just because that revenue dried up for one year. Yes they may operate a deficit for a year or two afterwards, but they are guaranteed to start reaping that net revenue in the near future.

So now we see what's the underlying motivation ....
 
If there is no season, and Manny keeps winning the offseason, he will practically be undefeated for a year and a half by the time football season starts in 2021. Talk about a winning streak.

Problem is, we start with Alabama in 2021, and Manny will have 18 months to prepare for them.

Miami has operated at a deficit for years in the football program what are you talking about. I believe first time we didn't in close to 20 years was 2017.

To expand further. The Miami football program operates at about a little under 60 million a year. Take away one season with limited revenue and massive amount of expenses you are in trouble. If the Acc doesn't get paid for their TV deal every school in the ACC is swimming in MASSIVE financial problems.

How do you know this since UM is private? I find this statistic difficult to believe.

Obviously. But very, very few draft prospects would play. No Trevor Lawrence, no Justin Fields, no Rousseau, no Brevin Jordan, etc, etc, etc.

Sure, it's better than nothing. But it'd be really, really ****** to play in the spring.

I'd pump the breaks on Rousseau and Jordan being automatic entry guys if they don't play this year. Neither guy has any film, and Rouseau is still a developmental guy who was a Safety/WR two years ago. It's different leaving as a junior with 2 or 3 years of film than those two leaving after 1 year of film.

Even during a pandemic it’s always fake Insider season, with great fake insider insights like “there might not be a football season”

This entire thread....

No fake insider more abominable than the fake COVID insider.

Dear dolts, please accept the following, as it's gospel: NO ONE KNOWS **** ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW OR WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE WITH COLLEGE FOOTBALL OR COVID.

I’d bet a ton of cash both are gone. Especially Rousseau. He’s got enough to go plenty high enough. Maybe you could convince me on Jordan because imo he’s not a first round lock today, so he might be a little apprehensive. But if the draft is tomorrow, Rousseau goes Top 15 at absolute worst. That won’t change much if he doesn’t play.

Hopefully neither of us can prove our guesses and we just play the ******* games this fall. Nobody wants a college football season in March.

I wouldn’t read too much into that figure. The reason revenues magically happen to equal expenses is so Miami avoids taxes, nothing more. And I’m not sure all revenues derived from football are accounted for in that figure. Take apparel, for instance. I don’t think that factors into football program revenue, yet it certainly is driven by the football program.
