Thought this thread was about Tyson Campbell....... no?

It got sidetracked because we’ve got fools advocating dropping bags that need to get educated.
Come on now, how often do threads like this actually stay on topic? Sooner or later they always take a u-turn

Its the way of the board. We'll talk about Tyson Campbell and then somehow we end up talking about Donald Trump. Weird fan base sometimes.
 
This is all true.

I’m pretty sure FSU won the national title prior to Dalvin Cook and D Cook was instrumental in them not repeating when he fumbled against Oregon in the Rose Bowl. But every thing else was spot on.

Nope. Cook played a significant role in FSUs title year. I could argue that without him FSU doesn't win the natty.

Interesting.....b/c Dalvin Cook was apart of the....wait for it....CLASS OF 2014 and FSU won the national title during the....wait for it....2013 SEASON! So how in tf did Dalvin Cook play a significant role on that national championship team when he wasn’t even on the team??? Maybe ur confusing Dalvin Cook w Devonta Freeman.

his december commitment really pushed the morale of that noles team to a championship level, duh.

Totally forgot. LOL.
 
I’m still waiting to hear about how all our rich boosters are going to start a bag network. Some of you dullards make me laugh at your meatheaded ignorance.

When you think of the vast majority of our rabid fan and booster base think Laz. Or this board. Not the kind of socioeconomics that drives the SEC. Yes most of their fans are toothless sister molesters, but there’s some extremely wealthy rabid “plantation owners” behind the scenes that keep things rolling not affiliated directly with the school. We don’t have those.

What we have are disinterested people looking for tax breaks, for the most part, that 90% of the time can’t be bothered to go show up and sit in their extra wide seats with TVs in the living room boxes or luxury suites. Trust me on this. Our boosters are a completely different breed.

Again you thickheads, here’s, the proof, we have to fūcking beg for pennies. Look at what’s right under your fūcking noses.

University of Miami Indoor Practice Facility

Do you get it now?

$700,000 since August.

In the top SEC schools boosters would have paid that in one day.

Do I have to spell it out even more?

Ain’t happening.

Not only that, be glad it’s not happening.

Nobody can keep their mouths shut down here anyway. The most recent example? The luxury rental car guys were ready to roll on Grace and Muhammad and sing like canaries if compliance hadn’t snuffed that shlt early. Nobody can be trusted to keep their yaps shut in south Florida.

For crissakes, you dumb motherfūckers want to talk about dropping bags on an open forum. That ought tell you everything you need to know right there.

This ain’t the place for it.

Nobody is forcing Miami to play the bag game. But if they won't play, then they should level the playing field prophylactically by ratting out the programs that do drop bags.

Because recruiting is a zero-sum game. There is a limited amount of all-star talent and Miami needs to get its share while preventing other programs from getting theirs. Miami can either A.) Match or exceed the offers these kids are getting (which you say Miami won't do) or B.) Make sure these kids don't get illicit offers from other schools.

You seem to be saying that UM should just accept the fact that other schools' boosters are gonna buy players while Miami sits on its hands. I somehow doubt that's what's going on but I won't push it.

Because frankly, I don't really care what goes on behind the recruiting curtain... as long as Miami gets ours. This staff is clearly recruiting well. That's what matters.

Did you read and comprehend what I wrote? Until you can refute or counter, your response is just meaningless empty drivel. Reread my post. Go to the link. Wrap your brain around that. Seek to understand before you comment further.

You actually have to understand the school, the booster, the city, the demographics, what’s at play, who the players are. You don’t. You are way out of your depth.

To make it abundantly simple for you: no bag game for Miami. And Miami “ratting out” others is not possible and is such a stupid idea only a pre-teen would think of it. Just dumb.

The question is, did you read and understand what I wrote?

You took several paragraphs to basically say "Miami can't/won't play the bag game."

And my point was to say fine... but in that case we need a level playing field and there's more than one way to skin a cat. Now tell us why, as you so colorfully put it, ratting out others is "not possible and such a stupid idea only a pre-teen would think of it?"

I'm dying to hear this.
 
You’re as dumb as a bag of rocks. It’s like talking to a 3 year old.

Who are you? What is your profession? How do you earn your money?

What a great argument!

Good point. I'm convinced now that ratting out others is not possible, thanks to your excellent command of logic and fact-based argumentation.

LMAO. You got nothing. Go away.

Why are you wasting so many words explaining to someone who is incapable of understanding the big picture?

Seriously, meat. How old are you? Am I talking to 17 year old? Shame on me if I am for being so impatient with you, but you can’t learn the ways of the world on a message board.

This, and the IPF situation is also a great comparison. Those donations would be provide the donors with a tax break (at least a partial one). And our "boosters" will hem and haw before making that donation, as noted by the funding over the last few months. Bags, on the other hand, are meant to be discrete and are not tax deductible. Anyone who thinks our fans, who avoid paying the former (IPF), will be willing to fund the latter (bags for athletes) is sadly mistaken.

Our guys will stroke huge checks for the business, law and med schools. They're not the type to get involved in dropping bags to high school recruits.

That might be because a proportionally larger number of UM alums oinly attended graduate or professional school at UM, and did not attend the undergraduate school. When I looked at the numbers some years ago, I was mildly surprised to see that a larger proportion of the UM student body was graduate and professional than undergraduate. It was more in numbers, but it was a higher percentage. I'm sure it's a different picture at most of the larger state universities with whom we compete in sports.

That also probably means that there is a relatively smaller base of students actively supporting athletics. I suspect most support comes from undergraduates (although I have known people who only attended a grad or professional school at UM but who are also avid supporters of athletics.)

Yes. The primary individual I'm talking about attended grad school at UM. He has written checks for a variety of areas, including athletics, but far more on the academic, grad school side.
