What is your favorite Cane thing that is personal recollection not common.

I was a Senior at BC in 95, I was at the walk through on Friday. They did this follow the leader thing at the end of practice and came over to me on the track to high five me with all my Cane gear on. Pretty cool. Talk about a loose group.

In the mid 1960's we had a fullback Doug McGee. He was a bull of a back and his forte was knocking himself silly long before there was concussion protocols.

From and article in 1967 "Miami's running attack will be sound with veterans John Acuff and Joe Mira at halfback, and Fullback Doug McGee, whose specialty is knocking himself out ramming into an opponent's end zone. "

He was a bull of a back rather like Csonka and fun to watch.
 
Some more recent stuff:

Denzel Perryman doing a perfectly timed flip over the line and sacking the QB from behind.

Artie Burns close-lining a gunner on punt return.
 
Getting to see Hester on special teams. He went from standing there with his hands on his hips to 10 yards down the field in an instant. Like he was shot out of cannon. But it was the way he could just.. Flip the laser focused switch that amazed me.
 
My favorite moment was sitting in the Orange Bowl after the last Orange Bowl game against the gator. They were favored and they had dropped us from their schedule so we did not know if or when we would play them again. We won 31-4 and scored their points for them. I worked with a bunch of gators and collected my bets plus had bragging rights for years, felt so good I didn't want to leave the Bowl. It was almost as good as ***.

I remember that one, gotta say the farthest ball I ever saw hit was buy this giant red-headed kid, from Univ. of New Orleans, I swear he hit it over the light tower in left center.
 
I remember a game, I think it was NC State. where we hit the punt returner as soon as he caught it, causing a fumble. Then did the exact same thing on the next punt.

I also remember seeing Ed Reed come out of nowhere to block a kick.
 
02 vs florida. After Sikes makes the pick and is 40 yards down the field, here comes ST out of no where and catches up to him, and then turns around to make a block that had no chance of catching dude. That's one of my all time favorite plays. I see that **** now with tyreek hill doing that to his teammates and it reminds me of Sean.
 
No one play, but I use to hold my breath when Kosar scrambled around in the back field. He appeared flat-footed and his feet turned out, & he was not a runner by any means, however, he always managed to allude a sack.

Colin mccarthys fumble recovery against FSU in 2007 to seal the game. In a terrible Miami season that went 5-7 and the embarrassing OB loss, this moment was a great memory from a great cane on a badly coached canes team.
 
1992 FSU game. Every fan getting a kazoo on the way into the game to drown out the FSU band.

Richie Anderson was the RB. They were gashing us with the same trap play over and over and then BOOM! Game Over.

Go Canes!

If I’m not mistaken PSU kicked a FG on 4th-and-7, but the Canes were offsides. Paterno took the points off the board and went for it on 4th-and-2.

Mistake.
