Our field never being prepared specifically for a Dolphins Game? Yes this isn't top priority but other teams fields look crisp, Painted end zones etc. Just adds to the atmosphere, feels good. For some reason most of our most memorable moments of recent memory have happened later in the year when the throwback games occur and the field looks good once the Canes are done. Right now I just checked and the field is a soccer field. Come Saturday a College football field. Then last but not least a destroyed, ugly field for our biggest game. Just annoying.

The Canes are parasites. They need to get their own stadium. The highest tuition in the state and they're dirt cheap. Supposedly they are considering their own. Hope it happens.

Their QB Van Dyke said earlier this week he prefers to play on the road due to the better college atmosphere.

They do need their own college stadium.

Doesn't U.M. pay the Dolphins (Stephen Ross) handsomely to play at Hard Rock? It's about the money.

Ross owns the stadium and after putting up several hundred million dollars to upgrade it, he wants to rent it out for as many events as he can.
In cities where the stadium is owned by the tax payers, those stadiums don’t have to be used for other events during football season.

So as long as the stadium is privately owned, Ross can rent it out all he wants to and if that means the field isn’t as great a shape as the publicly owned stadiums, so be it.

While it might not look as perfect as the fields at some of the other stadiums. I really haven’t read or heard any complains from the Dolphin players or the opposing team players about the field being in poor condition.
