How "The U" has been foolin boyz with Smoke & Mirrors for more than 30 years! "The CRIB"

"All day errday bruh! Or did we just fake the heck out of it?" 
John C. Maxwell, the famous author and speaker, once said, "Ideas have a short shelf life. You must act on them before the expiration date." Myles Munroe,  the Bahamian Christian evangelist, broke it down like this,"We live in a disposable, 'cast-off and throw-away' society that has largely lost any real sense of permanence. Ours is a world of expiration dates, limited shelf life, and planned obsolescence. Nothing is absolute." Then Alan Alda, the famous actor, spit it like a real G when he shouted, "It's really clear to me that you can't hang onto something longer than its time. Ideas lose certain freshness, ideas have a shelf life, and sometimes they have to be replaced by other ideas."

Well playas...the shelf life for the idea that the University of Miami was a legitimate powerhouse football program has run its course. Boyz have been holdin' on to some expired fruit long enough. Not twenty-four hours after Clemson beat the brakes off of the "The U" by puttin' up 58 points 'em and shuttin' 'em out they fired Al Golden! The dun that just happened to be a victim of circumstance. 

Everybody and their baby's momma's momma is hollerin' about how Miami NEEDS to bring back "The U!" The duns with all of the swag and attitude! The duns that beat the brakes off of everybody in their path. The duns that talked more trash than Muhammad Ali in his prime! That U! 

Now let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! In order for a boy to bring that "U" back they've got to reconstruct the freakin' terrible Big East or become an independent again where they could pick and chose their freakin' schedule! The U was The U because they didn't play anybody until they got to the freakin' Orange Bowl every year and then they were playin' at the CRIB!!! They won 5 national championships in a span of 18 years which is incredible on paper! However, they won three of those joints in their HOME FREAKIN' stadium!!! The 1983, '87 and '91 titles were played in the Orange Bowl! WHERE DO THEY PLAY ALL OF THEIR HOME GAMES? THE ORANGE BOWL BRUH! 

Can you imagine Ohio State playin' for the national championship at Horse Shoe? Can you imagine Michigan playin' for the national title at the Big House? Florida playin' for all of the marbles at the Swamp? Texas playin' for the title at Darrell K. Royal- Memorial Stadium? NeBraska playin' for be the No.1 team in America at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln? USC playin' in the Colosseum? Alabama playin' in Tuscaloosa? Give me a freakin' break!!!

The U didn't play a single game outside of the Florida State and Florida joints 90 percent of the time until they played Virginia Tech at the end of the season from 1991 to to 2001 bruh! Keep in mind that Va. Tech was suspect most of the time.  And before that, they were an Independent! Therefore, they were just pickin' and chosen who they played to get to the Orange Bowl which was a HOME GAME for them!!

Yeah they won some big ball games in the 1980's beatin' Tom Osborne's Nebraska Cornhuskers for the title in '83 but again, they were at the CRIB when they won that joint! They beat Oklahoma for the title too in '87 but they were sittin' on their front porch again! playing  with their own ball. C'mon bruh! If you play three of your 5 national title games on your OWN field AFTER you've played a cup cake schedule you're supposed to be considered a powerhouse! 

Check out who was in the Big East at the time bruh! They were playin' Temple, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, West Virginia, Syracuse, Boston College and Va. Tech! You're SUPPOSED to be a powerhouse playin' that schedule! pimpin'. Now all you gotta do is play your rivalry game which is always up for grabs because of the emotions of it. Then you show up at the crib to play for the national championship, which duns where votin' on at the time! 

If The U were playin' that schedule today they would be gettin' treated like Baylor and TCU comin' out of the Big 12 with one loss and not gettin' into the Final Four. Why? BECAUSE OF STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE!

You know why I say Miami was a fraud? Not because they didn't have studs all over the field because they definitely had them. The number of 1st round draft picks they've produced that have become SUPERSTARS in the NFL  speaks for itself. OMG they had players!!! But would they have been as dominant if they were playin' a legitimate schedule week in and week out? Naw playboy, they were frauds because once they started playin' a legitimate schedule they fell off. 

Check this out playa, they won 34 consecutive games from 2000-02! They won 39 regular season games from 2000-03 etc. They won 9 conference titles and 2 national titles between 1991 and 2001 while they were in the Big East! They won 3 national titles in the 1980's ('83, '87, '89) while they were an Independent. 

However, I told boyz in 2003 when they decided to leave the Big East and go to the ACC that that would be the biggest mistake of the program's history. Why? Because they would have to play more than 1 or 2 ball games a year. They've always had trash facilities and they wouldn't be able to compete with cats in the ACC week in and week out! Since 2004, their first year in the ACC, they've yet to win a conference title let alone play for a national title. 

The U isn't even Penn State buh! Remember how dominant the Nittany Lions were when they were an independent? Everybody thought that they were gonna just come into the Big Ten and just run over boyz. They've only won 3 conference titles ('94, '05' and '08) in 24 years in the Big Ten but they at least won one within 2 years into the conference. The U is 11 years in and are still dry. I'm just sayin'! 

From a TEAM standpoint The U is overrated! They've got players but the Program ain't worth two dead flies smash outside of the Big East or as an Independent! And can we really put them in the conversation with programs that have been powerhouses for decades like Michigan, Ohio State, USC, Oklahoma, Alabama, Texas, Notre Dame, etc, etc, etc.? Because they ain't won jack squat since they had to put on some big boy pants and the ACC isn't even considered a tough conference. They needed to stop callin' them the Miami Hurricanes years ago and in 2004 they should have started callin' them the Miami Partly Cloudys. Stop me when I start lyin'!
