Who’s gonna step up and fly the banner rightfully calling for the firing of the two nincompoops leading this program into **** in Flake and Manure?

There needs to be billboards calling out Frenk himself, that start as close as possible to Frenk's house and the bots houses, and follow their route to UM. That way they are embarrassed every day and every time they drive towards campus.

They are the ones who let this happen. They are the ones who need to suffer the consequences. And they need to be reminded every day.

The BOT members don’t go to UM every day like people who work there.

Sure, but you can't just fly it on one home game day. Fly it at UM home games AND away games. And just to be safe, fly it at College Gameday every Saturday. That's how you'll get the eyeballs on this that you need to create real pressure and effect changes. It all needs to be more aggressive, like all of the other successful banner plane campaigns that have changed programs around.

Eyeballs on some clever banners is exactly what this program needs!

This needs to be simple and direct.

Every College GameDay this year. Two signs/banners, both with big U's. One says "Fire Beta Blake" and the other says "Trustees Must Resign". Maybe a third that says "Terminate Julio's Contract".

Make sure the anchors ask Bear about it.

AND fly the planes before home AND away games.

If Manny loses games, his losses will fire him, eventually. But we really need to do something about our AD, our BOT, and our limp-d!ck President.

Part of me wants to see this happen when we implode this season and part of me wants to see this turn into another billboard/panel van fiasco. We still sucked, but we were all entertained.

They'll pay for a banner, but they won't donate for facility upgrades and the like. They'll look the other way as people march into the Miami inner city and outright buy kids right in front of them, and not create a public outcry. They'll lambast the school for not spending like Alabama and Clemson, but forget that even during the Decade of Dominance, the OB was half full more often than not. The Miami fanbase: Where logic goes to die.

What's funny is that I'm all in favor of putting pressure on the BOT to get rid of Blake and Manny. If our fanbase actually could put financial pressure on the administration, it would be far more effective, a banner is one of those performative measures that does nothing but make everyone involved look like crap. Unfortunately, the administration knows our fanbase is cheap, and doesn't really care if you show up or not, because they don't depend on our fanbase spending money to stay afloat.

That banner worked so well last time.

Those were the wrong banners, at the place and wrong time. The right banner will get us where we want to be. Frankly, in that regard, we are all just as responsible for the program's failures as Blake and Manny. If, as a fanbase, we were smarter about our banner deployment, we'd be in the CFP at least once or twice by now.

We need winning banners, for winning ADs, who hire winning coaches.

No, it just makes everyone involved look like ****. People also look at Miami fans like idiots, because people also know that Miami fans don't show up or donate. Hard to give a **** about someone's plight, when they don't have skin in the game. When UF fans turned on Zook, you could understand why: Those people spend a ton of money, they deserve a better product. Same thing at Texas, same thing at schools where you have people that are truly invested in the product.

Facility upgrades and money don't matter! Look, we have a new IPF that's almost a full football field in length and we still aren't winning. Banners. Banners will change this around. But not just our usual sad and ineffective banners. It needs to be the right banners, strategically deployed. That's money well spent!

Yeah, the fact that the last banner named Jenn Strawley instead of Julio Frenk or the BOT is just proof that some of these folks don't know how to craft the right banner for the right place and time.

If you don’t think banners flying over an empty stadium forces a change, you’re delusional. Banners bring bad PR. Bad PR has been proven to wake the BOT up.

I will contribute yet again.

The banners didn't get Golden fired. The media just kept turning it on the people flying the banners and kept saying you were making fools of yourselves. Golden's 58-0 masterpiece got him fired. Until Manny does something like that, he's probably not going anywhere.

100%. We should consider forming a banner committee. Only serious fans need apply, though.

Serious, and well-informed.

We should also figure out where all the BOT's corporate HQs are, and then buy billboards near where they work. They might only visit the UM campus a few times a year, but they **** sure go into their offices to make money.

Richt quit, James and Strawley are still there.

That's not working. The only thing that got accomplished was that somebody pulled strings to intimidate a national advertising company not to take an ad critical to the BOT and Blake James.

Giving opposing coaches fodder to negatively recruit against us is all that really got accomplished.
