Yeah! They left out Maryland! How dare they!
No, that's accounted for by Louisville.... they left out Ga Tech!

I can 100% guarantee that Jurich will never leave Louisville. So we're good on that bullet point.

Three reasons why:
1) the Miami Marlins - The ole' girl aka the Orange Bowl and its 6-7 Miami home football games was traded for a retractable roof, 82 home games for the Marlins and a fat bill for the residents of Miami.
2) the city officials of Miami do not have a clue - Miami, under Donna Shalala's leadership, raised money for the Orange Bowl to get upgrades. They basically asked the city to fund half of the bill, but the city officials evidently do not like the Hurricanes for what ever reason and decided to pass. This ultimately forced Miami's hand to make a deal to play in the Dolphins stadium - which is what I believe the city officials wanted all along.
3) location, location, location - there is really no place to put an on-campus stadium. I know there has been some talk that Miami could build a football stadium in Miami's Tropical Park, but this talk have been going on for years.
Truthfully speaking, the Hurricanes best bet is for 1) the Marlins to stink up the place, 2) the Marlins move somewhere else, and finally 3) restructure the Marlins field to host football.
After selling the city of Miami that bill of goods, can Selig ever allow the Marlins to move?
