Don't remember other schools making SNL

let it sink in ... michael is such a huge fan of the miami hurricanes he made SNL ... not for his playing days, or being and HOFer, or even his time as an analyst ... he made SNL due to being a hurricane fan ... god bless him

I think the actor got famous for saying "I'm not retarded, but I like rocks" when he was asked to describe himself.

Was Duke a villain for "stealing" Mensah from Tulane.
I don't like this "villain" tag because our guys are/were talented and tough football players who happened to play for the UM. I've met and even known some of them since the late 1970s, and they were all approachable nice dudes.
The villain used in the context of college football carries a different connotation than how it is used in pro wrestling, Hollywood, etc.
They - the pip squeaks in the media - are calling our players uneducated classless thugs when they label them as villains.
I resent this as someone who have followed these young men over time.
As a fan, I would like for them to be known and respected as tough, hard-as-nails athletes who worked very hard on the field of play and often in life and in the classroom.
Anyways, my .02 and no shot intended at any of the fellow posters.

This may be the right sentiment but none of us have any control over it.

Newer fans may not realize that part of being back includes the national backlash. Everything Miami says or does will be framed in a negative light.

Indiana fans, who have been irrelevant since time, casually calling the players Thugs. Truth doesn't matter, it has been ingrained. It is also low hanging fruit to get under the skin of Miami fans.

**** them! The fans call them Stormtrooper uniforms, embrace being the Empire.

Oh no question there is not much we can do about it. The national backlash is not only against the Canes, but against all-things-miami, especially when it comes to our sports teams.
It is what it is, but I refuse to play along with the caricature they have against our guys, especially the embracement of our guys being thugs. Fk that nonsense.
