Wait, what did Billy Corbin do to Miami to get put in the same bin as Luke?
He's had beef with UM for awhile. Some of it seems legit but a lot of it comes off as petty. When he's outside of a UM audience he doesn't care to rip the school.
His primary beef is with UM not cooperating/trying to impede the filming of The U parts 1 and 2.
Billy loves UM, but if any UM alum is ever honest and makes a legit criticism, somehow that becomes something more than it actually is.
To clarify: Luke and Billy are not in the same "bin".
I didn't say there was more, I said what's there simply comes off as petty. Which, when he's on Cowherd days after the Shapiro story broke saying UM leases its offices to pyramid schemers, rings pretty true.
Having an issue with UM is good. Necessary. Common. Football fans, of all people, have boatloads of complaints. But airing those grievances in the wake of a scandal that could bury the football program is petulant, and that's what I take issue with. No school in America would endorse a film that included and celebrated what The U did. Zero surprise they were anything but cold or hostile because even giving him freedom to use the logo can be seen as an endorsement. It's spineless and petty on their part, but not surprising.
Guy has done incredible work for the legacy and heritage of the program and the school has benefited mightily, even as they've shut him out. But if it's fair for Billy to criticize the school on occasion then it's fair for us to criticize him on occasion. There's nothing more than that.
