Miami Love Turned to Hate

=>Seeing a lot of media pushback now. 4 weeks ago we were the darling cute story.

I think that story got old. It was just time for a new narrative. Don’t sweat it.

At least they’re still talking about us. No such thing as bad publicity.

Pray for Luke!

Good, I’m glad he’s talking shit. Bruce Pearl has NCAA violations dating back to the 80s. One of the scummiest coaches in the profession. Not a guy we want on our side.

Love it-acting like Miami doesn’t play conference games, take roadtrips, or GRIND…. Thank you for the free press

Just keep winning.

Wake Up Barstool on FS1 this morning had a whole segment with the WMU DJ on to talk about the incident.

Talk about a surreal moment of a surreal season.

The DJ says as of this morning he has received no apology yet from Steele.

What a move by Travis!

Last thing I wanted to start my week with is being made aware that 2 of the worst people on the face of the earth are having this conversation at the same time our team and AD are courting Dez Bryant to sit courtside.

is this dramatic..yes.

Bruce should tell his son not to spend the month of February shitting his pants.

At this point (we’ve been here for awhile but still), if you are anti-Miami, you basically watch Cinderella and root for the wicked step-sisters.

Correct. It’s not Miami’s fault that failson of his took the job he was handed on a silver platter and lost fourteen games (and counting).

This is just the natural trajectory of social media discourse.

We were the darling of the college basketball sphere for the better part of 6 weeks. Eventually, positivity runs its course and someone needs to present the countervailing argument for the sake of getting clicks. The great things about Pearl being the poster child for the anti-Miami movement are (1) everyone knows he’s conflicted, and (2) the entirety - and I mean the entirety - of the college basketball landscape despises Bruce Pearl and will give no credence to this nonsense. I’m delighted that he’s the one who has chosen to take up this fight as opposed to someone who might lend some credibility to the movement.

Bruce Pearl always looks excessively greasy.

Any word on Luke’s wrist injury?

Mid majors (not counting Gonzaga and Houston) to enter the tournament with 30+ wins over the past 5 full seasons:

2025 Drake: beat #6 Mizzou

2025 UCSD: lost by 3 to #5 Michigan

2024 James Madison: beat #5 Wisconsin

2024 McNeese St: blown out by #5 Gonzaga

2023 FAU: beat #8 Memphis, beat #16 FDU, beat #4 Tennessee, beat #3 Kansas St

2023 Charleston: lost by 6 to #5 SDSU

2023 Oral Roberts: blown out by #5 Duke

2022 Murray St: beat #10 San Francisco

2022 South Dakota St: lost by 9 to #4 Providence

2019 Buffalo: beat #11 ASU

2019 UC Irvine: beat #4 Kansas St

2019 NMSU: lost by 1 to #5 Auburn

Overall: 6-6 record in first round games (despite 10/12 being the lower seed), just 2 were blown out (one by another mid major), 4-4 against power conference opponents (4 were forced to play against other mid majors).

It turns out that winning a lot of games is predictive of winning games.

Travis said he’s playing tomorrow and he is a better coach than both Pearl Boys combined so we should believe him.

Gonna be awkward for Bruce the next time he’s in studio with Wally and Wally has no other choice but to spank his bare bottom on live TV for being such a brain-dead moron.
