Then why am I the only one who knew that the mayor of Coral Gables is an ex UM trustee?
Why am I the only one who knew the population of the Gables, as well as the employee and student count of UM?
Why am I the only one who knew how many acres a typical college football stadium sits on, or the acreage of UM’s lake Osceola?
All I do is bring facts, evidence, and reasoned, independent thinking to the discussion.
Some of you saw a 30-for-30 made by a film student a few years ago and now you think you’re experts.
In addition, "Lake" Osceola is not a lake, we originally just had a canal running through the campus, and UM dug out the dirt and sold it to one of the causeways over Biscayne Bay to pay for the Merrick and Memorial Buildings.
The ON-CAMPUS FOOTBALL STADIUM was originally planned for the center of campus.
Fill in "Lake" Osceola (probably never going to happen) and you have the space for a stadium.
