If for argument’s sake, Miami is “back” fo the foreseeable future
With all of the resources now available to college football teams, might the upper crust of South Florida, as well as the average football fan, turn to supporting the Canes instead of the usually abysmal Dolphins? The Canes could become the de facto pro team for Miami, while the Dolphins might consider moving to another city.

Not really, 2 different dynamics
Miami is a region of 6.8 milliion folks. Dolphins would like to have sell outs but not necessary. With NFL revenue sharing, and sky boxes and premium seatling and entertainment facilities they have the market and the disposable income to support a wonderful revenue stream. No NFL wil never leave a 6.8 million dollar market. THe U, market is very simiilar, if they are winners they will draw the people, but they are leveraging the big investors alot. So If they pay 20-30 k for premium box, and dont show up its ok. The only thing with the U is location of the stadium is so far and drops local tickets and students. and now the real estate value around Coral Gables is off the chart. THis is more major metropolitan areas versus more college towns. But I guarantee, if VT is 10-0 and Miami 10-0 you would find a ticket in miami

they could move to Gainesville who also needs a football team.
