JoeRedskin 04-16-2004, 03:36 PM Never my intent to bash U of Miami S&C. Just having a laugh at the whole college football experience - you know the NFL's minor league.
Now, if they were bashing that overated, snob school U of VA, that would be different story...
saden1 04-16-2004, 03:54 PM I am very impressed by Ben Watson. He is smart, strong, fast, and can play too. Mark my words, he will be a better player than Winslow.

SKINSnCANES 04-16-2004, 03:59 PM I wasnt talking about you anyways JoeRedskin, but its cool. I understand my schools academics are seperate from football, and yea you can bascially consider Miami the NFLs minor league. Its ridiculous when i watch them and a key players gets injured, and all that does is let a better player step in.
Players leave Miami after three years because they will lose their starting role if they stay. Now that the rule change I wouldnt be surprised to see players leaving after two years, all though I hope they all stay for three. Next year we are suposed to have a better TE that Winslow, another Saftey to step in for Taylor, and the number one linebacker prospect to step in for DJ Williams and Vilma. The talent seems to never run out.
SKINSnCANES 04-16-2004, 04:00 PM Watson wont put up the type of receiving number that Winslow will, or make better catches. Whether his a better all around blocker we'll just have to wait and see, but Winslows hands are second to none.
redwagonskins 04-16-2004, 07:08 PM OH RELAX! I went to a college that after winning the NCAA champonship had players admitting they were high on coke. Well, at least they beat G-Town. Just trying to have a laugh. By the way, Miami has a 70% grad rate for football players and Vilma is an academic all american. So relax and learn to laugh a little.
SKINSnCANES 04-17-2004, 01:43 AM its cool man, no worries. I mean, the school was on probation for what, four years becuase they were paying players. The football team does its own thing, they have little to do with the school. I think U of Miami is atleast in the top ten wealtiset schools in the country, not including the football program. Im not sure why they change us 30k a year with all the money they have, damn them!!
SKINSnCANES 04-17-2004, 01:44 AM I might be going to Georgetown in the fall for gradschool, looks like we're destined to be sharing our differences :)
the government might pay for me to go to school there while paying me a full salary, so might as well ya know
redwagonskins 04-17-2004, 11:35 AM My entire family went to G-town. The only reason I didn't go there was I wanted to get away from home for a bit. G-town is the best example of the dichotomy between athletes and normal students. G-town is top 20 in everything and yet Alan Iverson is an alum? I love AI and his wicked crossover but what the heck kind of classes did he take? And having the government pay is the best way to go to school.
SKINSnCANES 04-17-2004, 12:08 PM yea we'll see what happens, thats what id like to do. So what, your saying Allen Iverson didnt score in the 90th percentile on his sats and have like a 3.8 highschool GPA??? Im shocked at a statement like that, he has to have some brains to figure out how to fit all those tattoos in such a neat arrangement. heh
redwagonskins 04-17-2004, 01:55 PM True dat!
