Queen of them; Fine af, body of a goddess, and personality of Satan. Lol. When I tell u when UT beat SC in the RB, the amount of dancing I did around her spoiled *** burned at least 1000 calories. We were never the same afterwards. Lol.

I really hope you end up right. But people who are not overly optimistic right now have every reason to think Miami will **** this up based on track record in the last 20 years.

Well, I can't argue with THAT! But we did just fire our AD for the first time in out history. So I am TRYING to stay... well, not optimistic... let's just say I am suppressing my better instincts and an willing to wait this out. Besides, I never get upset until I have a reason to get upset. Maybe's aren't worth your time.

Where does one start?

Much bigger school, they are the undisputed big dog in the most populous and wealthy state in America, longer tradition, more than 1-2 runs in their history, so many more alumni, beloved in LA, a massively, massively larger amount of financial support from alumni and donors than what we've had in the past... Miami is a great town but LA is the biggest CFB media market in the world... Hollywood (everyone wants to build a brand these days)....

Also many USC people stay in LA and continue to support them for their whole lives... Miami alumni, which again is a much, much smaller group, mostly scatters back to South America, the NY and the NE, Chicago, etc. Miami is also a very fickle sports town... LA people are more devoted, former players cal literally get away with murder... (helps with recruiting)...

Wow, that really sucked to write all that. Now I am depressed. But being intellectually honest is the first step on the road to recovery. Or is it flushing your stash? I can't remember.

Not to mention a giant, historic football stadium right there on campus. Plus, lets get real...LA women? Whole other level, if you're into the blonde white girl thing.

Changing gears though: If you're Mario, I can't imagine you're liking the idea of staying at Oregon for one more week, let alone 10 more years. Tons of their key recruits during his tenure have come from California, specifically SoCal, and have probably done so because USC has been such garbage and Oregon was the best game in town if you wanted to have a CFP shot. Heck, the California OU kid who just decommitted practically said as much. That's officially over starting this week. Chip Kelly too, come to think of it. Mario and Kelly are going to get the scraps from Riley's table for the foreseeable. But at least Kelly has LA to sell. Mario?

Miami on the other hand....soft, PAC-12 style schedule in the ACC. Fertile recruiting ground where you can actually win and have something to sell. Recruit even 50% better than Manny & co., apply some actual player development, you'd be competing with Clemson in no time. Especially with Clemson looking particularly vulnerable in this down year....can you remember the last time Georgia or Alabama had a "down" year under Saban or Smart where they looked as bad as Clemson has? We all thought Dabo had a perfectly reloadable, well oiled machine going there but maybe it was just that they had two generational talent quarterbacks in a row?

Dunno, I'm obviously biased but if I was Mario I'd absolutely be considering greener pastures here. At the very least, I'd be surveying the available openings and trying to figure out how I could get out ASAP.

Couple of correction:

1. USC doesn’t have an on campus stadium; both their basketball arena & football stadium are w/in walking distance, they are not on campus.

2. L.A have more than just blonde white girls, bruh. Lol L.A fa sho have bad chicks, but they come in all shapes & colors, Blacks, Asians, Whites, Latinas, Hawaiian, etc. etc. etc. And b/c we maybe #1 in plastic surgeries, they all look alike. Lol.

But ur overall premise is solid.

UM is a homeless man's USC.

1.Way ****tier academic ranking (way to go Frenk! At least Shalala did one thing well)
2. Fertile recruiting grounds but cherry picked by the SEC
3. Plenty of money but the billionaires won't donate
4. Utterly imcompetent program from the coach on up to the BOT

Tomato tomato kinda thing. I consider this "on campus" but I know it's technically not. Though having been there and walked around it really does feel close. Also a beautiful stadium, sunken into the ground so it just kind of sneaks up on you. **** of a lot more convenient for the students than what we're working with, though obviously current students are not UM's largest audience pool.

fully agree on the second part

One of my youngins played for Helton. He hated him b/c coming from a program like Serra, he was used to certain structures. Helton had every excuse as to y he wasn’t playing or in rotation, and everything that was asked of him, he did w/ limited playing time. Now, how he handled his exit from SC was totally on him, and how he didn’t pick himself back up is on him, but Helton had some locker room issues for sure. He was a good *** kisser from what I was told, and did just enough to cool down his seat.

Honestly I have no idea how Helton was as a coach, but every team in the history of the world has had players who don't play, who hated the coach.

I am referencing Miami players taking to twitter 'praising' the coach for building something special while being 19-15 with brutal loses.
