Had some of my best times at the OB while in school at Miami.
Where will we be as a program when I am 60? Will it be another 20 years of the same? I sure hope not.
This game has changed so much, thanks mostly to money and social media. Kids didn’t know about Alabama and Georgia in the early 2000’s. Unfortunately, we can’t depend on the kids in our own backyard anymore. We have to spend the money, have the facilities, coaches, etc.
We need to utilize being in a major market to secure NIL deals that draw kids to Miami. No offense, but CaneSport.com NIL deals aren’t going to bring kids to Miami. We need 6 figure deals that draw kids to UM.
This is no longer college football, it’s business. We need an AD that understands that. A president that understands that. A coach that understands that. Without all these pieces, we will be a middle of the road program forever.
