Canes Chatter Gone Wild: Message Board Post of the Day

Every morning Gary Ferman forces Matt Shodell to wake up extra early to identify the best recent fan CaneSport Message Board post. It could be a question, a statement, conjecture, even a food recipe (orange and green macaroni & cheese anyone)? Today’s winner (or loser, depending on your perspective):

Re football game vs. Virginia Tech moved from Friday night to Saturday … Posted by Det1_Stan_Switek: There is nothing softer than the annual complaints about our schedule. If it’s not perfectly customized to our benefit at the expense of the rest of CFB the fan base melts down. The Friday night game 1 vs Stanford is a GIFT. Friday night games hurt you because it gives you a short week entering into it and it’s tough on your fans. Except Stanford is game 1, so there is no short week. In fact, it creates an extra day for us before the next game which is fantastic with the long trip back home after the night game, and because the next scrimmage (I’m not calling it a game) is Thursday against FAMU where we will roll out the 3rd string. Say “thank you, ACC.” They did us a solid. And oh, the game isn’t in Miami, so there are no traffic or work issues. So basically all the tears are about ONE Friday night game, at Wake, which is sandwiched between our two powder puff games. And oh, we have 8 days off before it. TLDR: the only short week we have is before FAMU. Schedule is a gift.

CaneSport’s Response: Mario Cristobal has not made it a secret he is not a fan of Friday night games, so when the initial schedule came out and Miami had three it was a little ridiculous. So while we don’t disagree regarding Stanford, the difference between a Friday game that ends after midnight and a Saturday Noon game is not much. That’s sort of a wash. FAMU the Cane players will work for a half or into the third quarter maybe, it’s not like that one matters much. And your point about Wake is taken, we agree on that. But ideally we’d rather Miami plays every Saturday, not Thursdays and Fridays. A set weekly routine is important because that is how Cristobal builds this thing – there are set regimens for each day of game week, and turning a Monday into a Tuesday, a Tuesday into a Wednesday does disrupt routine. So no we’re not going to thank the ACC for anything. Other than moving Virginia Tech back to where it should have been in the first place, a Saturday game.
