Composure. Confidence. Commitment. Clarity of purpose.
Add in a big scoop of resiliency, then throw in some true grit and determination. When combined together, what does that recipe make?
A Miami Hurricane victory over the North Carolina Tar Heels of course!
On Thursday night your Miami Hurricanes refused to quit.
They simply refused to lose.
They said out loud and in a clear and forceful tone of voice to everyone at Kenan Stadium in Chapel Hill North Carolina that "Failure is NOT an option."
In spite of what UM QB Stephen Morris called "the worst game of my career" the Hurricanes dug deep, stepped up late and found the will to win. Even four interceptions, several significant injuries, a defiant UNC team and a rambunctious Tar Heel crowd could not derail this team of destiny.
That's right, I said it.
This team that Miami head coach Al Golden has assembled and coached has something special. They have a can't lose attitude that leads them to the simple conclusion that they will not be denied.
And against the Tar Heels, they finally proved it.
In recent years, the Hurricanes would have quit, or folded and probably lost.
This year, this team, in this game, showed some true grit.
We like that. Yeah, we like that a lot.
Soup, ps - how can I get this years shirts? Can PayPal U some $ if need be. Let me know. Would like the UF game shirt too

UM 6 sounds good....I do not put a lot in that lofty perch. We still have things to improve on, we still have to build some depth, get faster bigger stronger and more athletic.
When we are on, we are pretty good....but when we are bad....whew very bad. Nice position to be in...like AG says it means nothing now. It never means anything to me...it never did as a player...or as a coach....until the final game. Now 4 of the last 5 years we have won the last game....that means something to me on our level.
Nice season full of surprises so far. Keep it rolling guys you are doing a good job. Focus on the task at hand, the rock is named WF. Go Canes!!!!!
