Haywarduck Moderator No. 1 Share Posted December 7, 2021 “Coral Gables Senior High School ... is a school with a great deal of history, located within a residential neighborhood,” he said during a news conference Monday at Booker T. Washington Senior High School in Overtown. “This has come on us in a very surprising way. We respect our schools, we respect the community and at this point we are not entertaining any such idea.” Maybe he is just negotiating, but sounds familiar to how this was all put together. https://www.yahoo.com/news/um-booster-pitch-build-stadium-220814525.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruiz is a few SEC approvals and investigations away from $20+billion at this point. He’s an ambulance chasing lawyer for now. Not sure he has put any real money into the school yet. But propose a big stadium on property you don’t own with money you don’t have and see how far that gets you when Mario comes to Christmas dinner. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
