Y'all must have been some bad boys. However, it really does make a interesting read before bed. I thought I was coming on here tonight and was expecting to see ww3 because of a few comments from the previous post. Should went to bed earlier. Cane On

[86Cane]

If U want WW3 go to the Miami Herald.

And stay there.

That is all.

[WWIN]

Ohio_Cane, it wasn't me that deleted it, I was just messin witcha! Lol

How are the girls doing? Doing anything special for Christmas?

[Ohio_Cane]

I honestly wasn't mad and didn't care lol

[Ohio_Cane]

Girls are awesome man. 3.5 and 1.5 now. Time has stolen them from me it seems lol. Nothing special, just family stuff 24th and 25th, as usual. Short travel. How about U and yours?

[1mg of Epi]

MI.. A HUGE Golden supporter... Until it comes time to send his own son to college. Can't blame him, I wouldn't want a son of mine playing for AG either.

[Ohio_Cane]

Tim Irvin hasn't chosen anyone yet, and we've been and continue to be the silent leader. Other schools are a threat, but I expect him in this class. Take that however U will.

[Ohio_Cane]

And Tim isn't Mikes son. It's his nephew. His son is 2016

[WWIN]

Posted by: Ohio_Cane | December 14, 2014 at 11:14 PM

Thats Great! Time flies doesn't it lol?

Mine are 3 and 2. We took them to stay at Gaylord hotel this weekend, they have Disney characters there during Christmas time to take pictures with and eat breakfast with, they love it!

[The Dude]

^^^ bad name for a hotel, but one of my favorite places.

I have a feeling if I hung out with TSully like once a week I wouldn't be so mad about the Canes.

[Terrance Sullivan]

Right on the Dude.

[WWIN]

TDIM, you said that right lol! Every time I think about the name Gaylord I think about "Meet the Fockers" Lol

[Old Skool]

The next time we need players to run through smoke, just stand Golden nearby and ask why his defense plays so far off the ball. By the time he finishes, the place will look the air in Beijing

[1mg of Epi]

And Tim isn't Mikes son. It's his nephew. His son is 2016

Posted by: Ohio_Cane | December 14, 2014 at 11:59 PM

Thought it was his kid! Still...

[1mg of Epi]

If that is indeed what your ambition is, to make it a world class university, the football team is not taking you where you want to go

http://www.si.com/college-football/2014/12/12/si-vault-qa-alexander-wolff-why-miami-should-drop-football

[Go Canes]

So Golden is so bad, a better option is to just drop football.

Even if Tim were Mike's son, I don't think I'd be in favor of Mike MAKING the kid go to UM. It's not the poor kid's fault somebody's running the program into the ground. And making your kids' life-altering decisions for them isn't a good idea, generally speaking.

[Ohio_Cane]

Thought it was his kid! Still...

Posted by: 1mg of Epi | December 15, 2014 at 07:21 AM
---------------------------------------------

I know what you're saying.

(His kid is Mike Jr, btw)

[AeroCane]

This is where the admin is wrong - the football team helps with bringing in the students - heck no one would go to fsu if it wasn't for there football team- lol

[1mg of Epi]

Got it!! As I've said before, I know very little about recruiting lol

[dj moonbat]

So Golden is so bad, a better option is to just drop football.

Posted by: Go Canes | December 15, 2014 at 08:55 AM

Wow, you have REALLY come around! I'm proud of you, Go. Changing your mind takes a lot of courage.

[Ohio_Cane]

RE: Irvin - I think JJ pulls him in, regardless of the doubts he may have about the program/staff.

[SinisterCane]

I'm started to believe that the Phins and CANEZ misery fest are kinetically link

[CaneRock]

Is TI Sedrick's Son? Sed gave the staff high praises for their in home visit...

[Ohio_Cane]

Sedrick is his HS coach and uncle.

[Old Skool]

The Phins are suffering the curse of the Gators. Ever since they honored Tebow's team at halftime.

[Ohio_Cane]

Recruiting dead period starts today. Glad we got some big names on campus right before hand.

[dj moonbat]

Man, I can't believe my bad luck -- 'The U Part 2' coming out the same *&8% week all the torrent sites get raided...

[dj moonbat]

The Phins are suffering the curse of the Gators. Ever since they honored Tebow's team at halftime.

Posted by: Old Skool | December 15, 2014 at 09:58 AM

Maybe every team that plays in that stadium is paying for the Dolphins' sins. That would explain a lot.

[Go Canes]

@PeterAriz: There's a report that UM is "making a run" at South Alabama commit Jalen Thompson. Inaccurate. Canes haven't spoken to him since April

[The Dude]

Celebrating the Gators was a disgraceful move by the Dolphins.

#FSU commit up in the air for Johnny Frasier, 247Sports' top RB. #NCState and #Duke challenging http://247sports.com/Bolt/Frasiers-FSU-commitment-still-up-in-the-air-33880525 …

^^^ If Frasier decommits from FSU, they'll probably be going hard after Scarlett. Enjoy the roller coaster that is recruiting lol

[CaneRock]

Frasier de-committing was part of the Scarlett to FSU theory on CIS.

Charles Perry plans on EEing.
