why would you want stay in that dump if they build a stadium downtown? its only so much rebuilding you can do to the coliseum(and that goes for the Rose bowl also)
You can do more with Coliseum than Rose Bowl based on 1) current make-up of the stadium and 2) the neighborhood (low-income vs. high-income) in working with the city and all the bureaucratic levels.
There's nothing better than tailgating on campus all day and walking over to the stadium.  Screw taking a shuttle or tailgating in a parking lot in Downtown LA.

is the stoneface a joke? the same question goes for floyd...who on that list should each guy be replacing? maybe Juron Criner but thats it

I agree on Woods, I'm not ready to put him on that level quite yet.

But a healthy and motivated Floyd isn't better than Juron Criner? Is this serious?

For whatever reason, Floyd has been slept on in here for years. He has 28 career TD's and he hasn't even started his Sr. year yet.

[h1]NCAA News Release[/h1][h2]Eight Miami Football Student-Athletes Must Sit Out Games and Repay Benefits[/h2]
For Immediate Release

INDIANAPOLIS---Eight University of Miami football student-athletes must miss competition and repay benefits as a condition of becoming eligible to play again, according to a decision today by the NCAA student-athlete reinstatement staff. The student-athletes received varying levels of recruiting inducements and extra benefits from university booster Nevin Shapiro and athletics personnel, according to the facts of the case.

Reinstatement decisions are independent of the NCAA enforcement process and typically are made once the facts of the student-athlete’s involvement are determined. This is typically well in advance of infractions decisions. The enforcement investigation into the University of Miami is ongoing.

Of the eight football student-athletes, three received substantial benefits as prospective student-athletes from Shapiro and athletics personnel to entice them to enroll at the university, which are considered some of the most serious recruiting violations within the NCAA.

Olivier Vernon, who received more than $1,200 in benefits primarily from Shapiro, must miss six games and make repayment of the value of the benefits. These recruitment benefits included meals, transportation, access to Shapiro’s game suite, drinks, as well as cover charges at two different nightclubs, among others.

Two other student-athletes, Aravious Armstrong and Dyron Dye, will miss four games and must make repayment. Armstrong received approximately $788 in extra benefits from Shapiro and athletics personnel during his recruitment. Dye received approximately $738. These student-athletes’ benefits included five nights of impermissible lodging from institutional staff during their unofficial visits, transportation, multiple meals, and entertainment at a gentleman’s club.

Different than the first three student-athletes, five other student-athletes received impermissible benefits while currently enrolled at the university.

These five student-athletes – Marcus Forston, Sean Ryan Spence, Adewale Ojomo, Travis Benjamin and Jacory Harris – must miss one game and make repayment. Forston received more than $400 in extra benefits from Shapiro and athletic personnel, including athletic equipment, meals, nightclub cover charges and entertainment at a gentleman’s club. Spence received approximately $275 in benefits, including meals, transportation, as well as cover charges and entertainment at a gentleman’s club. Ojomo received $240 in extra benefits, including a meal and nightclub cover charges. Benjamin received more than $150 in extra benefits, including meals and entertainment. Harris received more than $140 in benefits from meals, entertainment, transportation and nightclub cover charges.

During the student-athlete reinstatement process, the staff considers a number of factors including guidelines established by the Division I NCAA Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement for the type of violations and value of benefits, if a significant competitive advantage was gained, the student-athlete’s responsibility for the violations and any mitigating circumstances presented by the school, among other factors.

“From regular reviews of our rules to the presidential retreat earlier this month, our members have continually stressed that involvement of third parties during recruitment will not be tolerated, and there must be accountability for inappropriate behavior,

its a damm near 90 year old stadium. its not much you can keep doing to it with out tearing it all down and building over

both UCLA and USC would be stupid not to look into the downtown stadium once they start bulding it


But a healthy and motivated Floyd isn't better than Juron Criner? Is this serious?

is that because of what you seen of both players or just floyd?

agian you can put floyd above Juron thats fine, but he ant going higher then 5 on that list.

I'll answer both your questions.

USC getting the master lease will finally kill all the "NFL @ the Coliseum" talk from a stubborn Coliseum Commission, mainly the delusional Bernard Parks.  USC finally gets to take over, probably demolish the Sports Arena and start making the south side of Expo Park look as nice as the south side.  The Coliseum became a dump because SC's hands were tied and the Coliseum Commission was hoping and NFL team would land there and provide the funds for renovation.  It was never going to happen and killed any deal in the past 15 years.

USC will actually put money into it and make it a great venue for college football and other SC sports that utilize the Coliseum.

Plus, AEG promised the City of Los Angeles that any team that decides to move to LA  will play at the Coliseum while Farmers Field gets built.  It's a done deal, USC is on board (w/revenue from the NFL's temporary stay going towards renovation of the Coliseum).  Pasadena/Rose Bowl tried to make a play with AEG but AEG knew it was best to make that deal with the city that is cutting the red tape at a rapid pace to make this vision a reality.

As far as Robert Woods, yeah I though he should replace Criner considering his "personal issues" this off season.

Saturday can't come soon enough!
