Miami and financial support

JayCane20 said:
Hiring Mario was a last ditch effort to spend money to make money. Cheap coaches weren’t doing anything or moving the needle. I was told when he was hired that if it didn’t work they basically plan on folding it up and moving on as a Georgia Tech or Wake Forest level program. Basically 8 more years to right the ship or forget about it.

Wouldn’t be surprised if the early returns on Cristobal are making them 2nd guess it. No info on that but would not be surprised if it’s on hold until further notice

So status quo pretty much like it has been for 20 years now

Only Miami baby!! Where do I get in line to pour the kerosene? I've got about 20 years worth.

The sooner this thing dies the better.

Dude cannot spell “university” I don’t think there should be much journalistic credence given

True. But it said, I think, that the school is up to 70 mil in the red on football. They tied that loosely to Ruiz. Obviously, all boosters of all schools are in the red on all NILs. The schools are 100 percent not.

Totally true. I really don’t believe this writer has the inside track and knows whats going on. I think he is pushing an agenda for a rival.

Who posts this anti-Miami propaganda on its own website? Like, fools like you are part of the problem. Either, you're too stupid to realize it or too dumb to be on it. ******' retards regurgitating everything they hear.

Look, anyone gullible enough to believe that pile of horse****...deserves to be mocked.

Particularly the breathless "here's what another AD had to say" nonsense.

None of that **** is true. None of it.

First, anyone who understands UM and its building projects KNOWS that half of the facility being built in the surface parking lot of the Wellness Center...IS A PARKING GARAGE...and that side of campus desperately needs it, as the new dorms will NECESSITATE more parking. As well as the loss of the surface parking at the Wellness Center. Does anyone HONESTLY believe that we are building palatial new dorms, but then consigning those students to having to park a mile away to take a shuttle bus every day? Yeah, that's not happening.

Second, as to the "can't afford it" ridiculousness, we literally can't afford NOT to do it. Even if football sucks, we have a ranked basketball team. Our baseball team just signed the #6 recruiting class. The new football building allows ALL OTHER SPORTS to have better facilities. And if we have ANY shot of impressing the Big 10, it's not by cheaping out at the last minute. Regardless of how expensive it might be, we need those facilities. ****, we needed them 20 years ago. By the way, how much money does the new Student Center bring in? If anyone thinks that the Rathskeller revenue offsets what that building cost...pure insanity...

Third, where is this miraculous debt? Oh my gosh, Mario's been on the job for less than 2 years. We haven't even gotten our revenue share for 2023-24 yet. We certainly haven't built anything in the Wellness Center parking lot. But these liars would have you believe that we have ALREADY gone into some massive debt over this. It's the most asinine thing I've read within any of these realignment threads. HOW? How have we already gone into debt? Does anyone use even a TINY bit of skepticism when reading that OBVIOUSLY MOTIVATED anti-UM bull****?

I don't know how many times I've had to say this in the past, or into the future, but CAPITAL EXPENDITURES are fundamentally different from operating expenses. They just are. People give money FOR BUILDINGS because they want their names on buildings. They want legacy. It's not about "ROI" or whatever that dopey post would have you believe.

Now, if the NIL and Hurricane Club money streams are a bit smaller after a few losses, who knows. Actually, I know people who know, and I haven't heard that yet. COULD it happen? Sure, it "could". But if donors are quitting part of the way through Year 2...well, who knows, I guess someone could, but how is it that this ONLY happens to Miami? It's just nutty to invent 4 pages of a post that purports to give "inside information" that has no basis in fact, and that is only tailored to the worst fears of our most skittish *****-made fans.

So I'd simply say this. Where is the GaTech balance sheet? Where is the Clemson balance sheet? Where is the Miami balance sheet that shows all this debt? Dan wasn't pushed out of GaTech or Clemson. The two campuses are a few hours apart, you'd think that if his behavior was so problematic, we would have heard something by now. I live in Atlanta and I have NEVER heard that Dan put GaTech into massive debt. Was it expensive to renovate one of the oldest stadiums in the country? Yes it was. Was Dan responsible for that? No. Did it need to be done? Yes.

I hate Twatter and Instacrap and all those sites. I had to read about this stuff on my computer, because when someone sent me a Twatter preview, the screenshots were too small to read. But maybe some of you with courage and a command of the facts can inform Genetics that all of that stuff was highlyl motivated and designed to hurt Miami. Someone must fear us and our desirability, to make up FOUR PAGES of bull**** like that.

And let's be clear. I am NOT saying that everything is perfect. If you went back and figured out how long it took us to build the Ryder/BUC/Watsco, you would know that sometimes things in Miami take a while.

As one of my fellow friends and posters just texted me earlier today, the UM School of Business now provides MASSAGES. And as I responded, UM has come a long way since it claimed poverty when the Student Government tried to get them to pay for more lighting on campus and a pedestrian bridge over US 1.

Miami has money. Stop believing every "sky is falling" fake story, even if a guy like Genetics re-twats it.

And grow some balls and tell Genetics that none of that crap is true.

Jay, you’ve brought a lot of good info to the board over the years but something isn’t adding up. Didn’t Mario sign a 10 year deal? Are you saying MC only gets 8 years regardless of how things go and then they blow it up if it’s gone bad? Seems like a strange approach to me.

8 more years from now he meant. my guess is they'll support him throughout his entire deal and if were still this (ceiling of 7-9 wins yearly), they wont fire MC but they'll remove the larger support and just run the program as if they have to have a team but nothing more

If true, I can see why MC takes his time to make every decision. Not sure how well I would sleep if the future of the program was on my back.

I guess things could change if we get into the B1G and the money starts flowing more freely. My guess is that would open things up a lot more.

CiS gonna CiS.
I swear there are some folks on here that absolutely revel in negativity. The sorts of dolts you look at and immediately think the world would be a better place if they disappeared.
