Miami has never had an on-campus stadium en route to five national championships. Due to campus geographic limitations and traffic concerns echoed by the city of Coral Gables, Miami probably never will. However the benefit of having an NFL stadium which is set to host a Super Bowl in 2020 has it’s perks.

The Miami Hurricane program introduced a commitment geared towards the infrastructure of the program unlike any have witnessed in their lifetime. A gorgeous and well needed makeover that simultaneously energized a starving fan base occurred in a relatively a short amount of time. Sixteen short months prior the Miami program was called bankrupt. I’m not sure you can say that now.
