#18 Ducks remain undefeated and should move up the polls after an incredible last-minute 34-33 win over #15 Oklahoma.

THAT'S why Coker should go...not in-game management at which he is good, but player management and recruiting---he SUCKS at those two!! |

Miami is a product of it's own creation.
They should change their nickname to The Thugs.
They reap what they sow.
I'm glad they are going down the dumper. Maybe now they'll start recruiting players who have some integrity and class.

you believe in fairy tales if you think big time football is run any differently at other campuses...that's just petty envy at the dominance of the 'Canes since Jim Kelly--Howard Schnellenberger....

87% graduation rate. Productive citizens after football.
Oh yeah, 5 undefeated teams, 2 national championships(remember that one certain Fiesta Bowl...who'd we beat?), and hundreds of solid pro players.
Penn State may not have the best teams every year, like this year(last years team was pretty fucking good though.). But Joe Paterno runs his team with dignity, integrity, and class. We have quality football with real STUDENT-athletes. I'll take that over having a team full of thugs and gangbangers EVERY time. |

'2', is that all? pray tell the 'Canes championships while you were celebrating one (1) Fiesta Bowl win....
I also note most criticism in UM seems grounded in unacknowledged racism.....
'thugs and gangbangers'?
envy
OK now

Envious of thugs and gangbangers? That's so ridiculous that I'm not even sure if that was a serious comment or not. But I guess when you have no real ammunition with which to fight, that's what you end up resorting to.
Yeah, Michael "King Blow" Irvin, Vinny Testicleverde and that stupid "we're wearing camoflage & won't eat with the enemy" crew. They were bulletproof weren't they? Class beats crass.
And you are right. Only 2 championships. It SHOULD have been 6...but since titles were not decided on the field then(still aren't now either), we had to watch media darling inferior teams walk away with our hardware.
There is only one player from Miami U that I ever really liked...and that was only after he turned pro...Jerome Brown. I cried the day he was killed. He was headed to Canton for sure. Tragic. |

5 titles(really 6), top 25 every yer since 1983, some of the greatest games/players, etc..we are entitled to a couple of "off" years, if 9-3 or 8-4 is "off" years. Having said that, the blame is two-fold. 1)Shalala has made it verry clear football s no longer #1 at the "U" and has made it hard to sign players on the edge of academic compliance and 2) horrible coaching by Coker, who has now been shut out in the 2nd haf 5 consecutive quarters-that shows an inability to make changes at the 1/2.
As with all great teams, it is pay back time and many mediocre programs that are beating us now are seeking revenge for past humiliations at our hand...enjoy it while it lasts, as the Canes will be back, as always.....

Agreed. Miami will come back. Maybe even this year.
Chevy...everyone likes winning. Obviously, winning is more fun. But collegiate sports is about much much more than simply winning. In pro sports, I would agree, winning IS everything...that is what they are getting paid insane amounts of money to do. But not in college sports. Graduating players and integrity SHOULD play a huge part of it. That is what sets it apart from pro sports.
To each his own though. Please enjoy it however you like.

Miami was not ranked in 1997. I believe they were 5-6. |

Look how lo0ng NotrDame,USC, Texas, Oklahoma were down-years before theycame back to prominece..we are definitely in challenging times, but 8-4 is pretty decent most schools...we are about 3 yrs away as Coler must be fired and a new class recruited....you don't lose players like we have these past 5 years and still compete for #1... |

asking to bring back davis is a bit o'strange isn't it???after all he basically crapped on the program, players and fans by running off to the pros after assuring the players he would be there for them...i agrre these things go in cycles...we usc fans had to wait 20 years for good stuff to start happening again...hell we lost something like 14 out of 16 to notre dame at one point...
