Has UF replaced Miami as "Thug U"? Jim Weber thinks so.

It was a hell of a run but after three decades, Miami (FL)’s dynasty as “Convict U” has finally come to an end thanks to its in-state rival 350 miles north. The mantel has officially been passed to the University of Florida with ex-Gator Aaron Hernandez facing first-degree murder charges in the most shocking athlete arrest since O.J. Simpson.

The most notorious program in college football history became “Convict U” during the “glory days” of the 1980s and early ’90s that were full of trash talk, Luther Campbell bounties and arrests. It spanned the Larry Coker Era, lowlighted by the 2006 FIU brawl. And it’s grand finale was the mind-boggling Nevin Shapiro scandal that broke in 2011 and proved even Hurricanes’ boosters are meant for a life behind bars.

dear god... 12 months ago everyone thought miami was getting the DP for widespread corruption in the football building... 24 months ago people wanted to hang the Auburn football program from the toomer's oaks...
such a flavor of the month attitude with college football... there will only be one "U"...

All the negative attention toward people associated with Florida must be getting to some people.

So an ex-Gator is accused of murder after he left UF.
Writer says UF is THUG-U.
Seems legit

did you easily forget about the other players at UF who have been caught?
*Look I'm not trashing the new staff that's at UF. It looks like they have tried their damndest to distances themselves from the Urban Era. But, you can't be surprised or are defensive about a sports blogger writing about it.

I also find it funny how the Pouncey brothers backed away from this situation...

They have lots of tattoos and are wearing hats?

But the one on the left is wearing a shirt with Our Lady of Guadalupe on it! That's as anti-thug as it gets.

Miami's run as "Thug U" came to an official and crashing end when they tried to start a fight with LSU in the tunnel before (or was it after?) the Peach Bowl a few years back and got their asses whipped.
