Without delving too much into this mostly unreadable thread, I agree with Hegemon on his position that Shalala has relied too much on her Madison, Wisconsin background in her oversight of the UM football program. Miami and Madison are worlds apart, and the fact that she consults Alvarez on everything, and hires worthless midwestern people (who have no ties to South Florida, understanding of South Florida, or allegiance to UM) is a huge part of the reason that the program is how it is. She's been great for UM in general, but has failed the storied football program. That will be her legacy.
