    Miami could really be a sleeping giant, provided they get the right coach in there. I know it hasn't been that long since they were considered "elite", but I think they are in the same position as USC, OU, and UT before Carroll, Stoops and Brown showed up. Lots of history, talent-rich locations, etc. - just need someone to bring it all together and they could be consistent 10-game winners.

    Apparently Donald Trump thinks they should hire Mike Leach. Weird.

    History means nothing at this point. You can list all the former NFL players from Miami that you want, from 30 years ago. Today is a different day, and the other programs in the state are different now as well.
    You serious Clark? Today, I believe they are right up there with anyone in terms of NFL players. Your initial post was wrong. Talented players do want to play there and will go there.
    I'm on Twitter too: Tre4ISU

    Or so I have read.

    Name calling is pretty unnecessary. Never said its a worthless program.
