NCAA troubles didn't help. Add in a string of mediocre coaches and recruiting that has mostly disappointed (including numerous highly rated recruits who didn't live up to their ratings as well as several mediocre classes) and it becomes difficult for a smaller school like Miami to catch up / compete with bigger programs. I thought Richt would get us somewhere but clearly we have been on a tread mill, at best. I think it needs to start with keeping a bigger share of local talent. We'll never keep all of it, but virtually all top South Florida recruits now head to much bigger SEC schools, Clemson, Ohio State, etc. Someone needs to make Miami a place they want to go again so we can keep a share of these kids each year.

Well, at least I got to go to school there during a pretty great 4-year run ('86 - '90)...
