Wow we really are back

We knew the "Where the **** is UM getting all this money from all of a sudden??" investigative reporters would be on this like flies on ****. All the way to looking into John Ruiz and the Mas brothers and if there is any shady business going on with their wealth. The narrative has been we are so broke for decades and now we are spending all this money was going to put up the red flags. Let them do their due diligence and this will all blow over within a few weeks.

The University appointed multiple high-level business leaders, business experts, & billionaire alumni to right the ship of UHealth and it began profiting. Sure some of it was due to COVID - but they expect it to still produce massive revenues aside from that. It's run by Financial experts now and not medical experts - as it should be.

Not good, IMO. Let’s hope the university doesn’t get cold feet and pull these funds.

We decided to spend big due to negative press, let’s hope they don’t decide to pull back on that commitment due to other negative press.

They probably won’t, but who can blame me for being shell shocked after the past 20 years. We finally have nice things and I’m paranoid they’re gonna take them away lol

Love how the media is spinning it like we're taking directly from UHealth - even if we were... it's owned by the University, who cares?

UHealth lost money for several years and was subsidized by the general University fund. Now that they're making $300M in profit.. the general fund can be allocated elsewhere - Football being one of those options.

How writers can just put stuff out there that is completely inaccurate is ridiculous. They took one statement, spun it to make sense for their tiny brain, did no research, and wrote an entire article shaming a University for something that they aren't doing.

Yes. 1,000 times over, YES.

We need EVERY UM FAN to get educated on this quickly, because all of your "so-called friends" are going to try to roast you on this bullcrap. ****, look at the dipsh!tes who are pontificating about how UM needs to give back all of the profits to people (some of which is already done, but I digress).

Nobody EXTERNAL complained when Shalala overpaid and spent years trying to turn the UHealth Titanic around. When UM's collective tuition money and other earnings were being shipped OUT to support UHealth's losses, not a **** person (outside of the UM community) said anything.

Now that UHealth is FINALLY making money (which, hey, not to be a stickler, but the profit started BEFORE COVID), people are lining up to put demands on how we use that money, trying to cash-shame us into fixing all the US healthcare problems without even allowing us to restore the money that was pumped into UHealth over the preceding decade.

NO. It is time to tell people NO, that UHealth is not stuffing money into medical waste bags that are then shipped over to the (currently empty) Athletic Director's office. That is NOT how this works. Never has been, never will be.

The money is UM's. Not "UHealth's". Not "Athletics's's's's". That's UM's money. Money is fungible. The bills are not marked. If people don't like the healthcare system in America, where even "not-for-profit" entities rake in a lot of money, then they are free to change it. Miami is NOT the only university in America that has a significant investment in a local healthcare system. We are just the most recent to purchase a nag and turn it into a thoroughbred.

Some of y'all need to break out your "Miami vs. Everyone" t-shirts, put your AirPods in, and extend your middle fingers to anyone who tries to slander Miami for doing what the entirety of the rest of the world does (and what Athletic Departments have been doing since the beginning of time). Using profitable divisions to subsidize less-profitable divisions.

It's just cash. Business entities spread it around like manure.

Was it Manny or Barry that first reported this? Such irresponsible journalism. Do your actual homework if you’re going to write stuff like this.

I know this is one of the rare times I say it, but in all fairness to the SoFla sportswriters, UM has been fairly candid that the RECENT success of UHealth has allowed us to rethink the way that we utilize the resources of UM within UM.

Can you believe that women's soccer took money from the UM football program? They need to shut that down for stealing money that isn't theirs! (said no one ever)

Now... can people complain about LSU pulling $150k from a children's hospital (not owned by the university) by way of a booster and giving it directly to a recruit and his family?

I understand that. But I think they can also report it in a more responsible way. This makes it seem like we’re funneling money from UHealth to Miami Football directly. Which from my understanding is not the case.

Agreed. We are on the same page here. Sadly, we have "sports writers" writing articles that "business writers" are better equipped to report and analyze.
 
Now people see why I always said “ who needs enemies “ when describing Miami. From Hs coaches , donors , former players , media and now with the Bot. Somebody always gets disgruntled and leaks ****. Look at one of the biggest media members we’ve seen from Miami , he built his name on destroying his alma mater. This is what’s separates Miami from small hick college towns. We will always have these issues. This story obviously came from somebody all in their feels in UM, regardless if it’s true.

Like I said “ who needs enemies “?
