3 things about Miami

1, They are not AAU. So the B1G will likely not be interested. 2. The SEC already has the state of Florida. And I think the SEC also despises them in a cultural sense. 3. The B1G hesitating to add Washington to me speaks volumes about what the direction is. Now, take this into consideration. Seattle has a population of 741k to Miami's 461k. UW is one of the great venues in college football and has an avid fan base. UM doesn't have an on campus stadium, and has attendance problems in Joe Robbie Stadium. I'd be shocked if the P2 went after Miami in any way. Let the U be "back" for 5 years, then maybe I'll change my mind. ** Edited by Maroon Baboon at 7/6/2022, 12:28:02 AM ** Edited by Maroon Baboon at 7/6/2022, 2:45:43 AM

Anyone in South Florida will pump sunshine about the U all day and night

Amen. They’ve been living on reputation for 20 years. Nothing more.**
BNOMO 07/06/22 10:01 AM ET
Sec and Miami aren’t a match for sure. There’s no pro stadiums in SEC

Plus, the U being a small private school is not a fit**
