tgr4lfe 220 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 That is all Holtz could say last night was how upset it gets him b/c it happened his last game at S. Carolina and he even said he didn't have control over the players, duh, no kidding that is why they are still paying for your lack of control. Bonehead. I hope the ACC and Sunbelt conference bring the hammer down on both programs. I imagine the schools will be left with the decision of what to do. How did FIU 'start' it?? I couldn't tell from any replays. Just looked like they bunched up after the kick and it started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BoStillKnows Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I heard Coker talking about the fight on XM radio and he said he had full control of the program. What a joke. I used to kinda like Coker but he's an idiot. Miami is a joke and should be demoted to Division II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleDrill 178 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 This is the beginning of the end for Miami. There should be some stiff penalties out of this. But right now, the Thug Nation (Miami fans) hate Larry Coker. Alumni have been purchasing signs that have been flown overhead on airplanes saying "Fire Larry Coker." These are the alumni of your school. Seeing how the alumni and boosters "support" the coach....seeing this trash on the field....seeing Miami thug news constantly in the papers....and anyone with any common sense.... who in their right mind would take that job if Coker is fired next year? This is the beginning of the end for them. Forget Miami. 5 years from now they won't be jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aumd03 2 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I only wish the police had come on the field a little earlier. Seeing a few of Miami's players in handcuffs would have been priceless. As for BamaGrad's post, I find it terribly ironic, he uses an expletive to describe Teague's slap and then in the same breath calls another team classless. No, I don't think Alabama and Miami are the same, I'm just saying those in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks. Choose your words carefully young grasshopper.

AFTiger 282 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 From CSTV Linky dinky Analyst's Comments During Telecast of Brawl To Be EditedTV analyst and former Miami player Lamar Thomas could lose his job Oct. 16, 2006 MIAMI (AP) - Comments made by TV analyst and former Miami player Lamar Thomas during a sideline-clearing brawl involving the Hurricanes and Florida International will be edited out before the game is replayed later this week. Thomas may also lose his job with Comcast Sports SouthEast, a regional cable network available in 5.5 million homes. "We will take appropriate disciplinary action," CSS general manager Mark Fuhrman said Monday. The network will replay the game Wednesday. Thomas made his comments as dozens of Miami and FIU players stormed the Orange Bowl field and fought during the third quarter of their teams' game Saturday night, an incident that led to the suspension of at least 31 players and forced officials from both schools to publicly apologize for the melee. "Now, that's what I'm talking about," Thomas said as the brawl raged out of control. "You come into our house, you should get your behind kicked. You don't come into the OB playing that stuff. You're across the ocean over there. You're across the city. You can't come over to our place talking noise like that. You'll get your butt beat. I was about to go down the elevator to get in that thing." Miami and Florida International have campuses 9 miles apart in Miami-Dade County. It was the first meeting between the two programs, and the Hurricanes went on to win 35-0. As the fight slowed, Thomas' comments continued. "I say, why don't they just meet outside in the tunnel after the ball game and get it on some more? You don't come into the OB, baby," Thomas said. "We've had a down couple years but you don't come in here talking smack. Not in our house." A tape of the fight, including Thomas' comments, was available on the Internet on Sunday and Monday. The game was available for viewing Saturday night on a pay-per-view basis. "We do not support or condone any of the comments that were made by Lamar," Fuhrman said. Thomas was a third-round draft pick of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1993 and spent six seasons in the NFL, three with the Bucs and three with the Miami Dolphins. He has a Gainesville address, but there was no listed telephone number for him in that area. He could not be reached Monday. Fuhrman said CSS will consult with Miami officials before determining what action should be taken. "The university recommends talent for the broadcast, but we ultimately will make the decision," Fuhrman said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what those kids were thinking while watching the Miami players huddle up and jump around on the sideline after the fight? At least they got to see how NOT to act.

CircleDrill 178 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Well, from some of the posts and YouTube comments I am seeing around the internet from Miami fans, they all thought it was totally awesome. Comments like "I was a fan before, but I am a fan for life now" and "I would die for those guys because I know they would die for me" are all over the place. It is not even just "talk" anymore. It is TRULY, ABSOLUTELY a thug, gang mentality. This is the beginning of the end for Miami. You just wait. 5 years from now, they will be nothing.

aucanucktiger 1,798 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 The BIG difference between the Candycanes and almost any other college...and the reason Miami wil NEVER change from the punkville it's been the last 25 years...is that the alumni CULTIVATE the rogue-program image, starting w/ inviting social misfits like Michael Irvin to talk w/ the team before every big game. It's always amazed me why Deon didn't go to U of M, he would have fit right in. Not that FSU, UF...or apparently FIU...are apparently that much better. I live in Tallahassee and can tell you most FSU fans I ran into today, young & old, are like "cool fight, huh?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
