The board of trustees with the middle finger to us all.

We don't have good academics, we have academics that have been consistently falling. I guess it is an achievement to be tied with FSU.

Saying the same thing over and over doesn't make you right or intelligent. But you know that already.

Then pretty much every college degree is valuable under your logic lol so what is your definition of good academics that you claim UM has? The bottom line is Miami's academic reputation isn't great (maybe decent, but the first thing that comes to most people's minds is the football team), and the school continues to fall in the rankings.

So you're saying it is good when there are two public schools in Florida who are improving and we're falling in the rankings?

We're tied with FSU. That is a pretty sad joke.

Ah, you must not be in the circle of people who discuss college football. Or labor laws.

There has been A lot of discussion recently, on boards like this, and even in the courts, about whether scholarship athletes’ contributions to an institution constitute “nothing”

Why, even the beloved NCAA video game has been discontinued, because the courts have decided that the students are providing something of value. Which is the opposite of “nothing”.

Mr Epstein, you are not doing yourself any favors being on this board.

See, you're mixing up topics. No one was talking about athletes or video games. The context was academics, value, and a student who has a full package and is attending school for "nothing". If you slow down and read the posts, this all becomes much clearer.

Tied with FSU at considerably more cost and substantially less of an alumni network.

Of course you're angry, that's the entire point of the rant you were on. We don't even have good academics. Burn the place down.

Is our top 60 football program good? The point is that the bot likes to act like academics come ahead of sports. They are failing at even keeping the status quo so what is it that they are doing well? If they were improving or maintaining Miami’s standing, maybe theyd have an argument

Yes, I know you're wrong and unintelligent.

It's good that UM is tied with FSU for academics. Really good!

It is good that our academic ranking has consistently fallen. Really good!

Falling within the top 60 of all schools in the country doesn't equate to "we don't have good academics".

Nobody besides Epstein or some other BOT would brag about top 60 in academics.

Continue to lower the bar, why not top 100?

According to this this porster, it is good to be tied with FSU. They're public and improving, we're private and falling. Oh and UF is improving too.

You seem to be stuck on comparing us with everyone else.
