First off, The U Part 2 was great. If you didn't or couldn't watch it, definitely do so during the next couple of days as I'm sure ESPN will show it virtually any opportunity they get.

It was a great reminder of how many times Miami has been down, only to rise above it all and return to the top time and time again. This University has been through some of the most insane scandals, accusations, etc. One of the best quotes from the documentary was from Colin Cowherd when he said something along the lines of "Even when Miami has a scandal they go all out." in regards to the Nevin Shapiro stuff. Miami really does do everything better than any other programs. When we win, we do it better. When we celebrate, we do it better. Even when we have a scandal and get in trouble, we do it better.

Anyways, back to the reason I've posted this. Even after seeing all this, and seeing how many times Miami has bounced back, I can't help but feel like we're finally down for good. Through everything I've personally been through as a Miami fan, these past 8+ years mark the first time I've never really truly had faith that we would "be back". I just can't help but feel like The U is officially dead.

You just watched a two hour show about the U being resilient and you post this *****ass ****?

Ed Reed would kick you in the ****.

Times really suck, lots of blame to throw around, but holy **** some of your whining is embarrassing.
 
Get a good head coach and we return. It's a simple formula. We get the recruits even with a Golden. We just need a coach. The difference between a program like Miami and the other programs who are down(Michigan, Texas) is that with an elite staff, Miami probably goes 11-1 at the very worst this year. At those two schools they don't. They've fallen into deeper holes with the on field talent. They just have administrations that keep trying to get good coaches. Miami does not.

If a Butch Davis came back, we compete for the ACC championship in year one. We're down, we're not out.
 
It's all about the new hire at president. That will determine if we return or not.

Idk guys...we lost our home of 70 years, our admin doesn't care and HATES the bad boy image (aqm), and our admin doesn't invest in good facilities or coaches.
 
You are right. The U is officially dead - unless Butch Davis comes back. He's the only one that could revive the program.

Miami had extraordinary individuals that made it what it is. Schnellenberger, JJ, and Butch were exceptional. That's why Miami could be special.

Anything less than a special coach, and Miami is average at best.

Miami COULD be special at any given time because no other progr is surrounded by this many elite high school players.
 
The college football landscape has changed. More and more, it will be about the same 15-ish teams competing at the highest level, the same 40-ish teams keeping up appearances while collecting checks, and the same 50-ish lower tier, non power-5, teams sacrificing their student athletes at the alters of profit for the benefit of the rest of their athletic department while never competing for anything but minor bowl berth.



The good news? We're not in the last group. The bad news? Pretty much solidified at this point that we're not in the first.
 
TheU1988 we are releasing you from scholarship. FAU has a solid program and you will be given every chance to succeed there.

-American, Hialeah, Carol City, Southridge, and Pace <-- Everyone once in a while with these.
IN your own backyard, then you're not dead. Just need a coach ... who can, you know .... coach ...
 
Did the University pick up and move locations in the middle of the night?

Ok then... we'll be alright.
 
I'm curious to get everyone's opinion...

If Al was somehow terminated at the end of next year, how soon do you guys think it would take the new "competent"(ie Butch) staff to get us back given the current construction of the team?
