And posted like 2 times lol.

Regardless, forgive me for not understanding the inner workings of college politics or knowing what the **** a search firm is

You realize we have search history, right?

You posted 7 times on January 2, 2021 alone...

Just do a search on "Board of Trustees" and you'll get caught up on all the info you need. There's a little magnifying glass in the upper right corner.

GF doesn’t know when to stop. Then people wonder why me and others were staying out of the stupid threads about his article. I’d be more interested to hear how many gerbils @CFLCane stuffed in his recital cavity last week than reading GF’s article other day. Which worked , he played everyone and won.

Let me see if I can understand this.

Gary motherfvckin' Ferman has been covering UM since the 1990s (1980s?). And he is JUST NOW researching how UM's Board of Trustees works and who has what roles?

This is unbelievable. This is like being a national news anchor in Washington DC and not knowing who any of the politicians are, whether they are elected or appointed, and how long they will be in office. Let alone knowing what they actually do...




"A Manny firing would be a statement that he also failed when Manny was hired. I think everyone on this board shares the opinion on that."

Uh, not Jose Mas, who has only been on the Board for 2 years...just another example of Ferman Overstatement...

It was on twitter, I'm not sure about the other stuff you were discussing. Just responding to the validity of the twitter account. It is for certain his account.

I mean I guess I don’t know, how would you know that. Has somebody screenshot it to check. I can change my Twitter handle right now to say whatever name I want it to say, I can say it’s Attila the Hun. Obviously there’s a way to know by looking at the screenshot to see what’s what. i’m not doubting what you’re saying, but I just haven’t seen the proof. Seems kind of dumb to go on a platform where can be id’d, but stranger things have happened.

All I’m saying is there are people saying it’s him, it could very well have been, it probably is, but I haven’t seen the actual confirmatory material.

if it was one of the guys it was on here, that I trust, that was on the Twitter space and confirmed it, I would be obviously much more likely to immediately take it at face value.

I’m sorry but the idea that we need a “search firm” is admitting how incompetent our school is. You really need someone else to google a dudes resume for you?

That’s not how they work. It’s a great idea to be using it. Maybe you’re not familiar with the usefulness of executive search firms, or specialized search firms.

Everything you say is true. But I think there was another poster who said that all of the (real or fake) Mirabal "contacts" were legit and known people, such as assistant coaches and whatnot.

If I changed my Twitter handle today, all of my contacts would be family members, not assistant football coaches. That's why people are 99.9% certain that it was Mirabal's account, there were just too many cross-references for it to be a fake.

No big deal, nothing to really battle over. I also think that when people commented about Mirabal being on Twitter Space while the conversation was going on, the "Mirabal" person bounced out of the conversation, which usually only happens when a real person has been spotted. Just my reading of what has been posted by others, I wasn't there.

We all know what search firms really do. Often times nothing more than an expensive buffer between the actual decision makers and complete exposure.

I thought it this too but most people have no clue what a search firm does

No I’m not trying to do battle over it, I’m just saying I haven’t seen anything that confirms it to me, and I can’t remember who posted it here but I know it wasn’t Cribby or one of the other trusted people, as far as I can recall.

I don’t really have a horse in the fight, it’s just that there’s a lot of information being thrown around, and before actually believing something I feel like I need to trust where it’s coming from.

So it’s just kind of a technical thing, but you can fudge around with your Twitter name.

The thing about Twitter as you actually have two names, there is the @*** which you can’t change, but then there’s the one that shows up front and center in larger bold print that you can change whenever you want, and it’s still the same account. That’s usually the name that most people look at, and it’s easily changeable to anything. I’m not even doubting that much that it was him, but before I totally believe it, I’d like to see confirmation. Because actually it’s kind of a big deal if he was doing that.

Miami does not have a AD…no power there. The board of trustees is toothless (the decision to part ways from Blake James was made without their input for a reason)…no power there either.

This is the part I'm skeptical about. The BOT is "toothless" and somehow Frenk, the non-sports guy has grabbed the reins of everything and is going to have his way no matter what they think? The same BOT that could fire him anytime they want?
