Matriculating in Miami

Matriculating in Miami

When the Big 10 raided the Pac-12 for UCLA and USC, I was one of those people who was staunchly against the Miami Hurricanes leaving the ACC for greener pastures and joining a super conference. Some of Miami’s best years as an athletic force in football came when we were independent or in an itty-bitty conference like the Big East. There is some nostalgia in being the bosses of our own domain. I remember those days quite fondly. I tend to prefer to go against the grain and not want to conform to what everyone else is doing. Historically, the University of Miami Hurricanes have been in the business of setting trends, not following them. For all my anglers and fishers out there, I love to be the big fish in my own pond. We as the Canes family thrived in that harsh environment no matter how lonely it seemed. Even though Miami wears the black eye of never having won the ACC Football championship since joining it, the U’s brand carries some serious weight in the ACC. Plus, our basketball playing brothers have had our backs from an ACC title winning perspective.

Results of the Investigation

Stephen Ross is not the best owner of a sports franchise out there. I acknowledge that fact. Conversely, Ross is not the worst either. The guy has invested his own money in the team, stadium, and the community. Ross self-funded the stadium renovations, added a roof so that we did not have to sit in the hot sun or rain anymore, and he brought many world class events back to Miami Gardens. These events included but were not limited to the Super Bowl, the NCAA football championship, F1 Miami Grand Prix, Miami Open Tennis Tournament, soccer matches of European champions, Rolling Loud Music festival, a future World Cup, and he also built a new world class practice facility for the Dolphins on site as well. These are things that many other owners would not do. Those things count for something because they stimulate the local economy.

Flores Betrayed the Fins Family

Let me start by saying that I believe that there is merit to the cause of addressing the coaching inequality in the NFL that the lawsuit of Brian Flores brings to light. If the New York Football Giants setup a sham interview with Flores to fulfill some antiquated Rooney Rule diversity quota while knowing they were going to hire Brian Daboll, then that is something that should be fully investigated and challenged. It is hard to explain that almost 20 years after the ratification of the Rooney Rule there is only one African American coach in a league that is 70% African American. The only rational thought is that there is clearly a systematic issue when it comes to hiring minorities in the NFL. However, this charge has nothing to do with the Dolphins.
