Re: I'm Speechless
Pretty ugly stuff. All this comes from a shady source...but then again, it's shady business so you wouldn't expect any different. Covering multiple programs, this is probably going to get very ugly for Miami. Maybe it will be good for the holes..."Yeah, well we were bad...but not THAT bad, I mean look at those guys!".

The investigation includes Butch's time there. We knew he was bad news, right?
Or should I say good news?

Butchy was at The U from 1995-2000, so an overwhelming majority of that criminal activity does not include him.captmojo wrote:The investigation includes Butch's time there. We knew he was bad news, right?

Sometimes, the truth hurts! But with your defense of Butchy, you demonstrated to all your perspective lies on an even keel.devildeac wrote:Butchy was at The U from 1995-2000, so an overwhelming majority of that criminal activity does not include him.

I just hope I don't get keelhauled after these posts.

Re: I'm Speechless
I always like to look in and see what the local press is saying. In unc's case, the press ran away and hid. Miami is a bit different, probably because they are much more national. Either way, here's an opinion piece from the the Miami Herald.
The smoke that you see at the University of Miami is a five-alarm blaze

I could fix this guy up with a Will and a Health Care POA. It looks like he needs one of each.

He would be a good candidate for the EXTREME MAKEOVER edition, and loose 100/150 pounds. Obestity in the United States is no laughing matter. And with unemployment and underemployment at a high rate, fresh fruit and vegetables are very expensive. And Carb and Starchy foods are cheaper.CameronBornAndBred wrote:What happens when Nevin Shapiro pays your buffet bill for a year.
Isnt Shapiro Doing 20 years for the Ponzi scheme?
Re: I'm Speechless
16 years ago there was an article in Sports Illustrated about why Miami should drop its football program, now I am beginning to think it would be wise after all this again except worse then the Luther Campbell days of Pay for Play! Randy Shannon warned his players to stay away from this guy that he was bad news, but you just can't tell young people things sometimes they just don't listen!

Do you suppose that another factor involved, might be that this is a basic character trait of the type of kids that Miami has recruited?RSharpe54 wrote: Randy Shannon warned his players to stay away from this guy that he was bad news, but you just can't tell young people things sometimes they just don't listen!
