It is really mind blowing that The U is having so much trouble regrouping. Talk about waking the sleeping giant and that will happen at some point.

Its not that hard to figure out. No on-campus stadium. No real fan base except for when they're winning. Also they have two legitimate, big time competing programs within the state along with some quality secondary programs.

All true. However, the biggest factor is the administration is not committed to football. Have to remember, Miami is a relatively small private university with excellent academics and extremely expense. The Miami power brokers just are not all that interested in whether they have a power house football team. It isn't what Miami is as a university. I don't think the U is ever going to reawaken unless the administration has a change in heart. If they do the U will rise FAST with all the local talent.
