MEGA Conference Realignment and lawsuits Megathread: Stories, Tales, Lies, and Exaggerations

[RVACane]

Fair enough.

You know my feelings on trolls.

KTDT.

Lol Cali’s not a troll, he’s just a NorCal chill MF’r who likes to argue points and die on hills like others on here.

Technically you're an alumnus after finishing 9 credit hours at UM. That's straight from the alumni relations office, and he didn't say he graduated. Now that's not the story he's going with, and we all know he's full of ****, but that would be the only feasible way an "alumnus" wouldn't know about Iron Arrow.

Fair enough. They may have changed the definitions, because when I was an undergrad, I was told that it was 60 hours.

By the 9 credit hours, UM can now proudly claim Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry as an alum. He was one of the guys that we always questioned, since he didn't get to 60 credits.

The article below is fun. I'd also point out, they omitted Steve-O from Jackass, who went to UM when I was there (and later dropped out). He used to do weird Jackass-style stunts at the ATO house.

The Ten Most Famous University of Miami Dropouts

Lots of successful people have degrees from the University of Miami. Everyone from Gloria Estefan to, like, 10 percent of the NFL. But some of the school's most famous former students never graduated -- either opting to transfer or quit college altogether. Current UM kids, don't take this as...

I don't know, he kind of seems like an ******* picking on the extreme left side of the Bell curve.

Have you SEEN High Plains Drifter? You may not like his schtick, but he's consistent and true to the movie.

No, I wasn't talking about Cali, was talking about Bigdaddy.

He said he has a UM degree. He reiterated it in his ban appeal.

 

[DTP]

LOL... I never attended a single class at the University of Miami and I know what the Iron Arrow Society is. In fact, anyone who claims to have been a season ticket holder would know since the inductees are always announced at football games.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

He said he has a UM degree. He reiterated it in his ban appeal.

Yeah, that would be stunning if true. I have no idea how a person with a UM degree does NOT know about Iron Arrow. It's mind-boggling.

Iron Arrow actually comes into classrooms and interrupts class to tap people. They pound the drum for 24 hours for two mid-week class days each year. They are at every Homecoming game. There are plaques around campus.

I don't buy his story.

Oh, and if I ever get banned at Swampass 247, I can also produce a UiF degree (as well as 3 UM degrees)...

 

[Brains]

I don't know who you are, stranger, but I absolutely love and approve of your schtick.

Very dark, complicated, problematic, and brilliant film.

One of the best filums ever made.

He said he DM’d us pics of his UM degree but you can’t send attachments in the appeal dm thing.

mickey arison prolly fits alum status.

i bet they changed it now bc they offer so many small profit building programs now compared to before. ****, summer sessions are like 2-5 weeks now compared to what it used to be and mostly online.

Tell him not to bother. I found the pics he was going to use already.

RVA there is a 0.0% that you could get a degree from UM and not know what Iron Arrow is. Also he's a new registrant of course. And exhibiting trollish behavior. Dude needs to stay banned.

He’s in purgatory for you guys to cross examine and do as you deem appropriate

Just Hear Me Out

RVACane and JeddTheFisch, I’m willing to have a civil, private or open discussion regarding my account. I sent photos of my degree in my last appeal. Why am I being treated this way? I did not troll anyone or anything (at least I don’t see how?). I did not use derogatory language or insult...

You can see my username, correct?

Lol I’m not asking for an official statement, just a solid rumor they’re actually interested. Look, I know we love our program and think the world of Miami, but I just don’t see why the BIG wants us bad enough. Several rumors confirm they’d love to have UNC in their conference. I haven’t heard the same about Miami.

This is from June 2022

The Seminoles and the Hurricanes are on the radar for the Big Ten

Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports is reporting that suddenly the Big Ten could be adding both Florida State and Miami.

sportstalkflorida.com

Living in the Midwest as long as I have, I’ve got a very reliable connection at University of Michigan (check my post history) and fairly reliable connections at Illinois and Michigan State

I know for an absolute fact BigTen is interested in Miami for a multitude of reasons and there has been ongoing dialogue basically since Rad was hired

Arison absolutely qualifies as an alum.

Yessir, you are right about the Exec MBA type classes and whatnot. The article I posted about "Top 10 UM Dropouts" lists Mickey Arison. The Sylvester Stallone one makes sense, he went to UM for 3 years.

Some fun names on that list. I am fairly certain that when Enrique Iglesias went to UM, he was not using his father's last name at the time.

All I know thank god we finally got our **** together by hiring Rad and starting to care about football, cause if we were being helmed by Manny and Blake, I’m not sure we would have gotten a BIG12 invite.
