Miami Potentially Going Independent?

[CJ Vogel]

That is a pretty big statement from the university president.

[Assistant Regional Manager]

Considering their football schedule this year, they already have some good practice with being independent.

Without conference title games being a thing with a 24 team playoff this doesn't surprise me.

Guess they were tired of playing powerhouses like Florida state and Clemson

I get why they want to leave the ACC but I feel like this will just create more independents when instead we could all just bully Notre Dame into joining a conference!

Hasn’t ND been independent for decades. I don’t think we are ever bullying them to join. Instead we keep giving them breaks or special rules to join the cfp

Maybe now the ACC refs can stop gift wrapping them wins

They have, and that's what I meant. Require teams to be in a conference or you're ineligible for the CFP. It's ridiculous they have special rules for seeding/getting in

Miami used to be independent - their first 3 natties were all as an independent.
