I didn't realize that heckling a coach was cause for arrest. And claiming that he was arrested for public intoxication at a college football game is laughable. Half of the attendees were certainly intoxicated.
Mark Richt has lost control of the Miami fans

South Florida hasn't been "Southern" since the invention of air conditioning. First came the rich folks from colder states, then came the snow birds and finally, the Cubans. Heck, Jacksonville has the highest "transient" population of any city in America. I am not sure how much of the state can truly be said to be Southern anymore.
I think a good portion of the panhandle can still be considered "southern" but, it ends once you hit the I-10/I-75 interchange.
I'm not just saying this - as someone who grew up in FL, I can attest to the fact the Miami fans are among the absolute worst regarding sportsmanship. Generally speaking they couldn't care less if the teams cheats or if they take cheap shots in order to injure players - they just want to win. They're literally like 10 year-old children. None of what happened is remotely surprising - the Miami fans are truly horrible.
I was on Bourbon St this weekend and saw a group of FSU fans going down the street chanting "**** her right in the *****" because ???
Thanks Jameis, you gave FSU fans plenty of classless material to lean on for generations.

Their fans are like the raiders. Not so many, but with that "just win baby" with a little gangsta swag. I wish I could find the video of Lamar Thomas, as an analyst wanting to come down and get in a brawl. "You don't come into our house" stuff. Worse fan base in the league. Richt may help a little, but its the culture.
I hate to be considered as a apologist for Mark Richt, I'M NOT... ( I never accepted the apology for Richt that he was 'A GOOD MAN' Pardon me for mentioning it but universities don't hire Head Coaches to be a GOOD MAN... They hire Head Coaches to win football games, even if they have to be a mean and nasty so and so...)
BUT...
Over the years Miami has never been disciplined, and the coaches have only had a loose reign on the players.
Any coach who tries that hard to be liked by his players is missing the point. HE IS PAID TO WIN.

Thanks for clarifying. This is how I took it, but with all the opposite responses, I thought I must be wrong. I think in many cases it just was an opportunity to hop on CMR and Miami that couldn't be passed up.:BigA:
