So when anyone around here is talking about anything that's not University of Miami related, he has zero interest in doing his job, doing the show, paying attention.

What did you learn?

You learned that Indiana's right tackle is a problem, correct?

Not that small.

You've invested in all the ways that a business person and a fan can invest.

And lest we lose sight of perspective because we've never done what we've done this week where we do a week of pregame.

For 20 years we've prided ourselves on we don't preview shows.

And the reason that we're doing it is because of the size of this game.

And do not let it obscure that no matter what happens from here,

The University of Miami has already had a tremendously successful season that has fixed everything that was wrong.

That doesn't mean that the transfer portal will not hurt them next year, but all of the questions and critiques that have been formed around this show have been rebutted by the last three games, this coach and this team.

And the other thing that's in play here...

This was also in play in 2001 as Miami tried to distance itself from some parts of its past that were more polarizing.

It's fine if you don't think Miami is Cinderella.

It's fine if you don't believe in an underdog story.

But you simply cannot say that there's anything about this team other than maybe the polarization of Carson Beck that I don't totally understand that's unlikable about this Miami team.

There's nothing that this Miami team has done.

Nothing.

Like you don't have anything reputationally that you can stick this Miami team that would make it representative of some of the worst parts of Miami's program and city stereotypical past.

This is a likable football team.
