Eddie Johnson off to nowheres ville after flunking out among other troubles and Gallo thinks he's the greatest player ever. Probably thought Willie Williams was too. They're both in the too dumb to play modern football mold. Why's nobody of note pick him up?
FORMER UM linebacker Eddie Johnson has signed to play at HInds Community College in Mississippi
UM linebacker Eddie Johnson was a talent waiting to break out in a big way. Actually, he had begun to break out already in his redshirt freshman season in 2012. Unfortunately, from what I'm told by insiders, he began hanging out with the wrong crowd, and got himself in trouble that UM didn't wan...
We offer so few sports that I think spending big bucks on an AD is a complete waste. Great though it would be, there is no on or near campus stadium in our future, so the notion the AD needs to be some super fund raiser is off base, IMHO.
Spend the money to attract and retain the best possible asst coaches.
We Hardly Knew U?
Dear University of Miami Alumni, The statement below has been sent out to the media—we held our statement as a professional courtesy to the University of Nebraska which sent out their announcement at 12 pm CST. CoralGables, FL – University of Miami President Donna Shalala announces the resignati...
For a program with relatively sports and no on campus football stadium to manage, I'm not sure why UM has more than a low level/low $ AD.
The only thing the AD does that really matters is hiring and managing the coaches. When that is needed a consultant is used for screening anyway. Let the Trustees step up since they need to approve the hire anyway.
Huge $ could be saved with this approach and plowed into the programs, esp the football asst coach salary category where we are well below market for big time programs.
UM Canes' (former ) AD Shawn Eichorst -- the invisible AD -- is officially gone and has taken the same job at Nebraska.
University of Miami President Donna Shalala just confirmed what we already knew: UM athletic director Shawn Eichorst has resigned, effective immediately. Eichorst has taken the same job at Nebraska, and will replace Nebraska athletic director Tom Osborne Jan. 1 -- though Eichorst wil...
There are so many dumb comments to choose from when selecting the bonehead comment of the day, it becomes difficult to sort through them all. Unfortunately for those of you wishing to win this award, the competition is locked up by Gallo and his various names.
The inability to grasp what a 2 deep roster is and then use that complicated math called counting and then doing a % in order to see undergrad % is a candidate. But, the winner is that "the NFL looks to bowl players first... always" Sure they do. That's why they spend millions on scouting and combines and draft lots of guys from DII and the 'directional" schools. And no one would have draft Barkley had he come out right? Not without that meaningless bowl game on his junior year resume.
The sequel to Dumb and Dumber was just announced as Dumb and Dumber To (kinda funny I think), but I'd have gone with Dumb, Dumber and Gallo.
Morris among three Canes honored by ACC; plus notes on Jermaine Johnson, Olsen Pierre, UNC kickoff time
Canes quarterback Stephen Morris, linebacker Gionni Paul, and linebacker Eddie Johnson were named Atlantic Coast Conference Football Players of the Week on Monday. Morris, named the Offensive Back of the Week, threw for a UM- and ACC-record 566 yards to lead the Hurricanes to a 44-37 win over NC...

Depth Chart just released for UM Canes vs. Notre Dame -- Denzel man in the middle
Good morning. The Hurricanes just released their depth chart for the Notre Dame game Saturday at Soldier Field, where Notre Dame will be the home team. Some quick changes: Denzel Perryman (high-ankle sprain) is back and starting at middle linebacker. With offensive tackle Ben Jones out, the co-...
Canefan'72 writes on and on but doesn't understand 1 of football's basic plays. Let me try to explain it like I do to my 6 year old daughter:
When you are on D and it is 3rd and long you have 3 basic choices:
1. Play your base defense
2. Bring 5 or more guys
3. Rush 3, drop 8, keep the play in front of you forcing a punt.
She got it on the ist try.
Confirmed: UM Canes DT Luther Robinson will not travel to Kansas State -- not good for a position that was already in need of help
Way up in the sky en route to Manhattan, Kansas for Saturday's noon game at No. 21 Kansas State. Ah, airplane Internet connection -- the marvels of modern technology. The not so uplifting news: CaneSport.com reported this morning that defensive tackle Luther Robinson will not be traveling to Kan...
