You are clueless about the statistics. Absolutely clueless. You have no idea what you are talking about, because you are simply quoting numbers that you googled.
First, the only students at UM who are required to pay the Athletic Fee (and thus get to go to football games) are the full-time undergraduates. The number of full-time undergrads at UM is just over 8,000. Of those, over half of the full-time undergraduate student body lives on campus.
For the most part, the only graduate/law/medical students who CHOOSE to pay the Athletic Fee are those who went to UM undergrad. Such as myself. Almost nobody at UM Law pays the Athletic Fee. Same with the Med School. Same with the graduate school.
And even the portion of the full-time undergrads who live off-campus...LIVE IN DADE COUNTY. That means that nearly 100% of the full-time undergraduate student body lives in DADE.
Finally, as should be obvious, Melreese isn't "on campus" It's 5 miles away from campus. It's actually very close to the old Orange Bowl site, about 2-3 miles away and slightly NORTH (and to the west) of the Orange Bowl site.
If someone is willing to build a 50,000 seat stadium within 5 miles of the campus, and will let UM play in it, we have to consider that.
But, hey, sure, some of you have the same foresight displayed when UM turned down Tropical Park because we were happy with the Orange Bowl.
