You would know.

Our first year without a bowl in 10 years and winning season in 18 years. NCAA tournament in basketball. One of the best baseball programs in the conference. So no, not really. Noob.

Ha! Noob. I've been following FIU athletics since the late 80's. Noob maybe to your conference; not to anything else. I can imagine the type of person you are; get your entire self worth from your association with this message board....nice.

Yes we are a directional school. And your university's name is Florida International. That's much better. I guess UWF, UCF, USF, and UNF took all the directions so you added an "International." You could have gone with Southeastern, maybe?

Well, the first USM/FIU game is shaping up to be a doozie.

Are you kidding me? All the directions were taken so you went with "International".

I know this has turned into smack but, I cannot believe they fired him. I'd love to have him as our coach.

Yep. pretty lame.

Ah whatever. International is still better than Atlantic.

We SHOULD be USF, however than name was taken by a school that should be called "University of Midwest Florida" or "Midwest Florida Tech"

I just found it funny, or ironic that a guy who roots for a school with a direction in its name to make fun of others for the same thing. I wasn't bashing USM as I think that they are a good football program (except for this year)

Pot meet Kettle...

I'll admit that my comment was in poor taste. I'm proud of what USM has done... it's more than just about any other directional has accomplished.

Some of my own naming ideas:

Georgia Pacific University : It's not just a diploma mill... it's a paper mill. Really helps hold down costs.

Atlantic and Pacific University : It admits 17-year-olds and convicted felons, but they have to bag groceries. Their rival is ODU.
