My mistake he was great. Sorry.
Would you care to qualify why or how he sounded like a clown?you're right he was fantastic. i just re-listened.
Especially when the report sounds like he travels back to SC on the weekend likely when he is not needed in Miami and then commutes back to work Monday to Friday from campus. As mentioned by others as long as he isn't missing fundraising events or similar things that require in person appearances by him who cares if he runs staff calls from an office in Coral Gables or his house in SC.Nothin too small for some here to sweat over. Welcome to 2023----people live and work all over the place. Judge him on the job he does not where he has homes.
I thought he came across as very genuine. I can't remember the player, but someone made a play. He commented about it, talked about the player, and talked about how great the kid was. It was awesome. I was thinking, Blake James probably wouldn't have had a clue who any of our guys were.Would you care to qualify why or how he sounded like a clown?
I barely paid attention to what he was saying and that usually happens when I hear canned responses to less than great questions. The only thing I remember is him giving an emphatic "NO" when asked the stupid question of whether Miami was going to build an on-campus stadium.

Thank you for clearing this up, Dan R.That is not accurate at all. He has a house on or right off of campus provided by the school. He still has a house outside of Clemson and I am sure he goes back there occasionally. To say he "commutes" is an over reach and not accurate.
I don't sit around thinking about Blake James. I'm simply stating that its interesting that our AD actually has bonded with the players. Most AD's don't.Yet there are some of us that simply never think of Blake James whatsoever …
The better than Blake, better than Manny standard needs to die….
Miami money stretches further in SC. Probably finessed the school into paying for his travel back and forth… lodging too.
If I recall, he wasn’t looking for a job… he was approached. So he probably threw out what would normally be absurd conditions to see how badly we wanted him.
If he did I wouldn’t blame him one bit.
Is it?He's stays at Saban's house on Jupiter Island on occasion. The fix is in that way for when Saban retires, him and Dabo will go to Bama. It also allows for them to get the best recruits we have locally.
I'm sure there's one wingnut here who will believe this. It's clearly a joke. Who cares where he is if he's performing his job? I sure as heck don't care where he lays his head at night. I will say that if his Wife didn't wish to join him down here, that's never a good sign for their marriage or his future here.
