That Goon shyt
Our starting LB core will all be NFL players.
Wait....so because I couldn't afford the $10K/semester tuition and decided to go elsewhere, I'm not allowed to donate money to have a plane flown to have a shytty head coach fired? Maybe I misunderstood your post...
its like saying I shouldn't have bought season tix cause I didn't go there
Pretty sure I read your post wrong. I didn't donate money to the university during the Golden Era. It was to a private company who flew the planes with the banners.

Miami to unveil plans for $30 million football facility on Friday
12:06 PM ET
Miami will unveil plans for a new $30 million indoor football facility and football operations center Friday in South Florida, a project that has gained support and momentum since Mark Richt was hired as coach last December.
ESPN obtained the first renderings of the project, which will feature an 80,000 square-foot indoor practice field and 20,000 square-foot football operations center that will house coaches' offices on a mezzanine level, team meeting rooms, position meeting rooms and a recruiting suite.
The facility will be built over the existing turf practice field Miami uses, just next to the grass practice fields, and will connect to the current weight room in the Hecht Athletic Center, along with the locker room in the Schwartz Center for Academic Excellence. The turf field only goes 80 yards because of space limitations, but there will also be a 40-yard spillover field included in the building.

Athletic director Blake James has discussed building an indoor football facility since he was hired in 2013. Not only is there a need in South Florida with the rain and lightning that is so prevalent in the area, Miami is among the only schools in the country without an indoor facility.
Richt, a Miami alum, was instrumental in making the project happen once he arrived. He and his wife, Katharyn, donated $1 million to help make the project a reality.
At the time his donation was revealed, Richt said, "I love my university, and I want people to understand I'm committed to making it great. We need to help raise the funds to get it done, and I'm hoping it will energize people to know that it needs to be done. I'm not just giving lip service to it, that I truly believe it and I'm willing to invest my life in a lot of ways and our resources, too."
Miami coach Mark Richt and his wife donated $1 million towards the new football facility. Richt also provided sketches with his vision for the complex's design. Rendering obtained by ESPN
While previous ideas centered on building the indoor football facility only, Richt wanted to include an operations center as well -- similar to a plan he pushed through while he was head coach at Georgia. He even sketched out drawings himself with his vision for how it would look.
Fundraising for the project began in May through a private campaign. Miami already has over 70 percent of the money pledged, but cannot begin to break ground until all the money is raised. School officials hope going public with their fundraising efforts will bring in the rest of the money needed to begin the project.
Once the money is raised, the university will begin going through the permitting process with the City of Coral Gables. The school already has an architect, but it must also bring in a construction company as well.
The project is expected to take 14 to 18 months to complete, with a target goal to open in summer 2018. It would be the largest project for the athletic department since the $48 million BankUnited Center opened in 2003.
