Miami (FL) Hurricanes (1926-2003)

Butch doesn't have the greatest track record for leaving things better than he found them

Maybe not always, but he left Miami in position to win a national championship. They absolutely would not have done so without him there. Coker took his project and coasted until he got canned. I don't know if Davis can re-create that magic, but he did a fine job the first time around.

Please don't run weather smack. In the last half of autumn, winter and first half of spring it is great. The rest of the year it's an oppressive, humid, mosquito factory that should be turned into a penal colony.

Yep. May-September in Florida sucks, unless you like Apocalypse Now tropical heat and Biblical thunderstorms.

Um, not really. That is more inland areas around the glades than the coastal areas. Orlando was built on a swamp, and that gets damn hot, humid and nasty no doubt, but near the coasts you get a nice constant breeze and that does make a huge difference.

In fact, we have actually been cooler and less humid than GA and SC the past couple of years. My parents who live near Beaufort, SC, (about 40 miles from Savannah) have had much worse summers in regards to heat and humidity than I have experienced down here near Boca Raton.

Just sayin.

No doubt. Coastal Florida is a breeze.

Lived near Cocoa Beach for 15 months, and it sucked for about eight of those months. My mom lives in Ocala and was born and raised in Gainesville, and hates it there...her and my steps father plan on moving out of Florida as soon as the VA restores his pension.

I nominate Dan Sileo to be Da U's next head coach:



These guys can be his core assistants:

Ocala and Gainesville are inland like Orlando, so yes, those areas get unpleasantly moist and very still in the summer. I can see why she wants out of there. Plus, the jorts. She has to be sick of seeing the jorts.

Ocala is a different world than South Beach, St Pete or anywhere coastal.

This....a thousand times this........My family and I are hoping to move out of Gainesville within the next year as long as we can sell our house. I hate Gainesville with a passion.

It pretty much is a penal colony, a lot of them just don't know it yet.

They're all too busy filming documentaries about how good they were while they were cheating.

I had forgotten how much I loathe that program until I watched those 30 for 30's. Their alumni are an embarrassment in those interviews. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when I see how proud they are of themselves for acting like criminals, not to mention they're still crying over their loss to us. Maybe the next time the NCAA won't completely botch their investigation so I can see that program burn to the ground.

The best thing about this is that you KNOW there will be a next time. They're going to keep giving the NCAA chances to crater that place.

Uh, no. My mother is from Jacksonville, very much on the coast. Summers there gave new meaning to the word "oppressive". If that's your (or anyone's) cup of tea, fine. I hate it.

Not meaning buxfan4life, but those from there that run weather smack usuallly run from their air-conditioned house to the their air-conditioned car to their air-conditioned destination. It's just unpleasant a climate to be in, IMHO.

Rivals Mike Farrell getting lit up and down twitter for saying "Da U" got hosed in 2002...

As the responses show, there were actually 2 fouls committed by Taylor, and the ref called both if you watch the slow-mo replay. He starts by calling the defensive holding off the line, and then calls the correct PI when the Taylor tried to face-raped Gamble while the ball was in the air. Either one result in 1st and goal.

In other words, Mike Farrell can go fuck himself with incidental contact.

Pardon me, but didn't this event happen 12 some years ago, Mr. Farrell? Who the fuck cares any longer?
