Facilities are in place for one thing and one thing only. That's to attract talent to your school. Miami does not need to attract talent to their school as the talent is in their backyard. They do not need all the perks as the school is in freaking Miami not some poe dunk country town. Its about having the right guy for the job. If we get the right guy we will go back to competing for titles. So all this talk of facilities means little, anyone who uses that as the reason why the U will not be back does not understand THE U..

Not true. There are a lot of recruits, even local kids, who go to Auburn and see the **** waterfall in the their student union or whatever the **** they have or the 9 million sq foot weight room at Bama or the IPF at insert school name here, and fall in love. Sure, to some, it doesn't matter, but this isn't 1987, 1997 or even 2007. Times have changed, and we have to change, or at least change some, or we'll be left behind. The days have past when we can say, "We're the U" and expect kids to just come, even when we're winning.
 
Sure Bama is a good example. But.

Talented kids out of high school want...

Exposure, coaching, wins, and trim.

Remember UM is at the top or right near it with most players in the NFL. That alone is still solid. The campus is still a beautiful campus. Women are everywhere in the city of Miami. And all types.

Coaching is all we need. Everything else will take care of itself with coaching and then wins.

And we still lose talent too. If other schools have it, we need it. It's that simple. That's the reality of college football today, like it or not. It's an arms race, and we can't be stuck in the 1999. Keep thinking all we need is coaching, we'll see what happens.
 
people should want to come because of great fans like laz and dannyboycane
 
Bama and Auburn need to top notch facilities to attract recruits (outside of Bama's winning). There isn't crap to do there, that's the only way to get recruits out there. Miami's facilities are just fine. We just sent a number of players to the draft last season as getting talent isn't the problem (although Golden goofed up a couple that we could've got here). Miami needs coaching, that's the problem.

Facilities aren't everything but I don't see what's wrong with having a IPF and other updates.

That's all I've been trying to say

I never said we did not need things. The point is that I have never heard a kid commit based on the facility. Its part of the equation but its not what will keep the program from competing. IPF is needed no doubt, but not having one does not mean you can't compete. There are a bunch of schools that have everything you want and are still mediocre. It helps to have but its not what will get us back. Remember Alabama has Nick Saban.

Than why did Miami have more players drafted than every team in the SEC, Pac 12 and Big 10? Miami's facilities are more than excellent now!
