What it Takes to FEED the MIAMI HURRICANES | AthlEATS

Way too much thrown at me. Write me a list and I’ll pick it up on the way home. That’s the only way to grocery shop.

Our commitment to the nutrition program has taken on a whole other level BUT the timing of it relates more to when construction starts getting done. Well have 14 private chefs in the new facilities. We didn't have nothing but some **** catering when I was here. Kyle is a joke though. Fine we get what we NEED however look at what powerhouse programs get years ago compared to where we are even now. Look at bamas nutrition program if you really wanna feel like Fred Flintstone.

@Brooklyndee ....Lol at S*it catering...that's putting it mildly. Thank God for Sarge's wife's Lasagna....Lol
 
Get Moss with Nathan Diaz. He knows how to pack it on by the looks of things.

When I was wandering the Hecht last summer (before the big luncheon with Dan and Alonzo and Jenn), I wandered back to the first floor "Schwartz" area (forgive me if I'm naming the wrong building, they built **** at different times, and it all runs together for me), they had a whole area set up outside of the locker room area on the first floor.

I was happy for the football-specific setup...but I was unimpressed by the food that was coming out. Very...basic...

if you remember the dining hall food, it was very basic too.

the food in the video didnt look great. the acai bowls were probably the best thing lol

Surprised Kyle is still here; honestly haven’t been very impressed w/ his work.

Also, I hope when the new facilities are built, the nutritional dept takes a huge step fwd. We’re grossly behind in this dept compared to the big boys.





One of the commonalities I saw, whether it was UTenn, UGA, Bama, OSU was not only were the players provided w/ plenty of options, but they had several nutritionist designated for particular sports that was hands on to give education as to diet habits, & ensuring regimens are followed for gains or cuts.

I see why kids go to SEC schools, our s h i t looks like rabbit food compared to those 2 schools.
 
When I worked w the football team during the 2018 season, I was shocked by what the players were eating. Fruit cups, muscle milk, and Gatorade. They also only had like two or three ice baths that were outside and dudes had to take turns. They’d cater the most random **** after games as well. I think it was the Duke loss at home I saw them eating five guys lol. **** was run like a summer camp so it’s easy to see how far off we truly are

The nutrition thing has been a long time issue. I remember running into a group of players back in 2010 after that USF loss that ended Randy (Jacory Harris was one of the people in the group). Was pretty surprised when I saw them all carrying bags of fast food after the game.

Pepsi is the sponsor at Hardrock Stadium so every home game, Coke hangs banners in the stadium covering the Pepsi ads. The University and the athletic department have deals with Coca Cola though.

Well whoever is in charge of nutrition needs to order some tests on Moss and see if he’s got some nutritional/enzyme deficiencies or explain Calories in gotta be >> calories out to actually gain weight. This kids gotta be put on The Rocks 15 protein pancakes every morning diet or something…

When you have budgets in the HUNDREDS of millions of dollars, of course you are going to have a lot more to work with. That said, past a certain point, it’s waste. Miami would like to have a larger nutrition staff, but if there are other more pressing, immediate needs then those will be attacked first. Honestly, it’s amazing that colleges have so many make work jobs in their athletic departments(Pro franchises don’t have huge teams of nutritionists on staff), but they have to burn through the money somehow as nonprofits.

I’ve always believed that if these schools had to pay the athletes a market based salary, these extravagant facilities and staffs would be significantly reduced. Amazing what you can build when you don’t have to pay the talent.
