If you are traveling to warm, sunny South Florida for a University of Miami football game this year then we highly recommend that you stay at the designated Canespace hotel for these events:
The Hampton Inn in the beautiful, upscale and centrally located city of Plantation, Florida.
This award-winning, luxury hotel is situated in an ideal location for college (and professional) football fans and can be found just West of University Drive and just a few blocks North of I-595.
The Hampton Inn is located near numerous restaurants and popular sports bars, is within walking distance of the Broward Mall (for those who like to shop) and is only 20 minutes from Sun Life Stadium via the Florida Turnpike.
Hurricane fans come from near and far and literally take over the hotel lobby and patio before and after UM home games. Rival fans can also be found there for some good-natured trash talking as well.
There are always opportunities for car pooling to the game with other Hurricane for tailgating parties, purchasing tickets and snatching up one of the prized Canespace T-shirts.
Canespace usually throws a "Party On The Patio" after every home game with food, beverages and prizes for UM trivia contests. With a lush, tropical setting and a large pool and jacuzzi, the Hampton Inn patio is THE place to celebrate each Hurricane victory in 2011!
The special "Canespace Rate" is $89 and is valid for all Hurricane fans and also available for any visiting team fans.
For reservations please contact the Hampton Inn - Plantation: 954-382-4500.

We look forward to meeting U at the Hampton Inn - Plantation this season!
Great photos Dee Liner.
If we play Alabama in a bowl, they deserve to be on T-shirts and fan signs. Of course, no one could sell them (copyright).
That is some amazingly stupid stuff when you're in the public eye and an amateur athlete. It's akin to Lance Armstrong posing with his blood bags.
Here's another worthwhile tidbit. Apparently he took the pics in a gas station bathroom in Panama City. Either he couldn't wait and use the beach and babes in bikinis for a background or he wanted to keep things private so no one would know he was carrying that much cash which, of course, is why he posted the pics on Instagram

Those are real benjamins and my guesstimate would be about 10k.

I saw one Benjamin, the rest look like dubs (20s)...a conservative estitmate,ehhhhhh... 5Gs.
And not saying that money didn't come from a booster, but those grant in aid checks can be pretty hefty, especially if you're on a full ride.
And if that was GIA money, he'll be broke again come fall LMAO!

My guess would be that the booster paid him that day, probably in Alabama, then he took the quick drive down to Panama City with his boys to celebrate, and was so excited and proud of himself, his lizard brain told him to run into the men's room and Instagram it.
Probably somebody had to tell him: "you idiot, delete those pictures." Probably not his friends, who are hanging with him to see how much they can sponge off of him.
Let's not pretend this is uncommon. It isn't. Advertising it is uncommon. But you have lame brains like this that crop up from time to time.

Riddle me this, batman. Why do these pics only show up after a recruit has either signed or committed?
GIA's aren't paid out that way
