Schnellenberger Trophy

[BigDikDaddyFromCincinnati]

Why is Manny "No me gusta recruiting" Diaz in that photo for the press release? Is it photoshopped? Did I miss something? Apologies ahead of time if I'm missing something obvious, but Manny's face is giving me some serious PTSD and I don't like it.

 

[SayWhat]

I don't mind it. Great way to pay tribute to a monumental coach at both programs.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

You can still play for that trophy whilst not being in the same conference, you know...

Okay that would be ultra whack

Only if F$U joins us in the Big 10.

I stand corrected. Here's a quote from Dan Rad:

“Miami is excited to partner with our colleagues at Louisville to present The Schnellenberger Trophy on an annual basis,” said Miami Vice President/Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich. “Coach Schnellenberger made an incredible impact at both institutions, and this trophy will serve as a visual reminder of the legacy he created for the sport he loved.”

The Louisville Sports Commission will present The Schnellenberger Trophy when the Cardinals’ are the host team, and the Miami Touchdown Club will present the trophy when UM is the host team.

Love the tribute to Coach, but hate the idea of a made up football "rivalry" with a basketball school 1,000 miles away that we'll hopefully stop playing if/when we end up in separate conferences

Yes, but if we "fake" some "enthusiasm" for this trophy, then it will be harder to prove collusion on the intent to kill the ACC...

 

[L A M P]

I can't put into words how much I hate the ACC

 

[UMFarArcher]

Now bronzed, I can't tell which one Howard broke off in Nebraska's a**.

Left? Or Right?

 

[Hold My Beer]

Only if F$U joins us in the Big 10.

Yep

When FSU goes to the SEC and if/when we go to the B1G, the Noles are gonna dip outta the rivalry

 

[Home Slice]

SIAP

I don't hate it

 

[Dulles Cane]

Stop overthinking this, it's a nice little tribute to a great man. I'm glad a small part of his legacy can live on in this way.

 

[Brains]

I'd like a yearly trophy with Wasington State. If you know, you know.

 

[DTP]

All-time series is 11-3-1 to the good guys, although all 3 of Louisville's wins have been in the last 5 games. We're 2-3 in the last 5 (but 2-0 in the last 2).

Pretty sure their three wins were against Al Golden

 

[IndayArtHauz]

Stupid and nonsensical marketing gimmick.

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

Nah, they beat the everloving **** out of us in an early season game in Coker’s last year. I think we stomped on the logo like we were tough and they skull****ed us for 60 minutes.

The other 2 were Golden.

 

[Kempo Cane]

Clappy said not so fast my friend!

 

[CaneinBroward]

Don't FAU and Oklahoma need to get on the schedule to truly play for the Schnellenberger Cup?

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

If we’re being real we should be playing for a trophy of his pipe but the world is full of PC pussies so,

 

[CFLCane]

I can't wait for the Christobal Miami/FIU Trophy game

 

[Cribby]

I can’t wait for the Dennis Erickson “ Bronze Jack Daniels bottle” rivalry to be played with Arizona State .

That bottle was part of his right hand for decades.

It's a joke. We were recruiting a kid that Louisville was also recruiting & we brought him some ****** bowl trophy to hold so someone photoshopped this over it. I think Dean the kids last name was if I'm not mistaken.
