Somebody invite Lamar Thomas. Please. :)
I was just going to say that someone should create a video of his finest moments in that Sugar Bowl. It should start out with a black screen and the words "Everybody knows me...", add in his fumbles, dropped passes, and being run down by Teague and stripped, and then end with him on the bench, peeking out from under the towel over his head.

And also replay his inane remarks after the game that our DBs weren't all that great. If they weren't then what does that make him?

A typical post-Bama trauma victim. I've noticed that a lot of the players on other teams talk about how we aren't all that great after enduring beatings that would make interrogators in Pyongyang cringe.

I read a story in the paper once re: Thomas and Teague.

http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2011/08/alabama_ultimate_moment_the_st.html

Teague believes The Strip made him an NFL first-round draft choice. Several years later, he signed as a free agent with the Miami Dolphins. Thomas was a teammate.

"Every time I was in the locker room, if Lamar was somewhere and I was heading that direction, all the guys said, 'Hey, Lamar, watch out! Teague's behind you!'"
Hahaha, classic.

In other words, Miami is looking for a high-profile national opponent to re-announce their arrival to the national scene.

Essentially, they are just doing a keg-stand on the Golden-colored Kool-Aid. Better chance is they show up and get shellacked and continue to be mediocre and nationally irrelevant.

Sure I'll take it!!! It's funny how whenever Miami get brought up on this board Lamar Thomas' name always seems to find itself on here as well.

Best Thomas/Teague quote ever IMHO:

Lamar Thomas was running for a TD. George Teague was running for his life.
-Coach Stallings when asked how the slower Teague ran Thomas down (It was Teague's blown coverage that allowed the catch)

Bama already has Colorado State scheduled for 2017. Adding Miami would help boost the SOS a bit.

I'd prefer a home and home myself.
These games in Atlanta and Dallas are great recruiting tools.

I'd really like to see that because we'll need a quality opponent OOC every year going forward. What would be great is if we could play it in the Superdome. That would generate some extra interest I'd imagine.

Miami's stadium is a dump, and it's not very big IIRC. I'd much rather see a neutral site.
