This.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.
Miami toxicity is real. Everyone got an opinion, but you will never see a collective momentum to do something better like you see at other schools or towns. Miami is the definition of crabs in a bucket. Remember when Alonzo tried to fundraise for facilities? Poor guy has all the right intentions but no one else has good will.
This board is hilarious too. Banners? We just had banners last year for an OC and DC, and something stupid about the AD like they gonna fire him lol. They did change the coordinators, and so far this season it didn’t really work at all.
Actually, ima go in the record and say our defensive performance the first two weeks would be considered satisfactory if we could score a decent amount of points. So manny, in his game day duties has done well, I mean not elite but he’s done a job
The offense has not. Does this warrant banners? No. I think they are just as ****ed inside the building as we are outside. Manny though doesn’t pull a satan and berate his players on the radio as you all so desperately want.
Just show up. Tickets cost half of ****all, you guys spend more on blow on a Friday night then you do on a pack of 4 tickets for the upper deck. This board and their 24,000+ athletic directors lol…
