UM Student Health Center now open on Sundays

Mahoney College Council Interest Meeting Come together to discuss ideas to design and decorate your dormorrow. Meet in the Mahoney/Pearson classrooms at 8 p.m.

This year, University of Miami students who are sick on a Sunday will have one less problem to worry about. The UM Student Health Center will now be open from noon to 4 p.m. every Sunday.

Previously, the center was open on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m, and on Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Brandon Gross, now president of Student Government, pushed for the change last year when he was speaker of the Senate.

“I think it is beneficial to the students,”

sion of this program will require additional resources.

Currently, the Health Center is planning to have one physician available on Sundays to meet the urgent needs of students.

Students that require routine care are encouraged to visit the center during the week.

On Aug. 31, the first Sunday the Health Center was open, it was very busy despite the change not receiving large amounts of publicity, Anapol said.

Rosenstiel School awarded $1.4 million, will use for climate research The University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) now has $1.4 million more to work with. RSMAS plans to use the funds, an award from the National Science Foundation, to develop powerful supercomputers to analyze decades of detailed climate dynamics.

The university is also partnering with the National Center for Atmospheric Research, the Center for Ocean-Land-Atmospheric Studies and the University of California at Berkeley to build the foundation for the next generation of complex climate models.

Registration for intramural Table Tennis is due to the Wellness Center by 7:30 p.m. today!

Gross said. “Before, people had to get sick during the week. If something happened on the weekend you had to wait until Monday to use the Health Center.”

Howard Anapol, director of Student Health Services, said the change was primarily due to this year’s policy prohibiting freshmen from having cars. Now, freshmen living on campus can receive health services on Sunday without having to drive.

The additional hours for this first semester were funded by reallocating money the Health Center currently holds. Continuation or expan-

WEDNESDAY The Political Argument Today with George F. Will, part of the University of Miami’s Dialogue for Democracy, will be held at the BankUnited Center at 6:30 p.m. Doors open at 5:45 p.m. A valid Cane Card is required for entry.

“The project will bring together students in computer science and climate science to address problems in an interdisciplinary manner, thus creating a next generation of informed, computational scientists,” said Ben Kirtman, a professor of meteorology and physical oceanography.

Previously, scientists thought climate and weather were independent of each other. However, researchers are now finding evidence proving that weather actually has a great impact on climate, which is important for improving climate change projections and weather and climate predictions.

“Through our recently developed Center for Computational Science at the University of Miami, we are looking forward to creating an optimal environment where many of the theoretical aspects of the interactive ensembles can be tested,” Kirtman said.

Lack of locks in some dorms reduce security, privacy Fire code requires that each dorm in suites have two exits

BY BROOK FRAZIER AND CHELSEA KATE ISAACS CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER AND NEWS EDITOR

A female resident of Stanford Residential College awoke at approximately 4:15 a.m. on Aug. 31, to find a six-foot-tall white male intruder with curly brown hair exiting her room, reported a crime alert by the Coral Gables Police Department last Wednesday.

The alert noted that the student had not locked her door. Although the resident did not report any stolen items, the crime alert stated that there have been several recent thefts from unlocked dorm rooms, urging students to lock their doors at all times.

In Eaton, Mahoney and Pearson Residential Colleges, a bathroom separates many dorm rooms. Two pairs of suitemates live on either side of the bathroom, sharing a shower, two sinks and a toilet. While the front doors of each room have locks, the bathrooms do not.

Students have no control over whether their suitemates lock their front door – a situation that could potentially enable an intruder to enter one of the suite’s rooms and travel through the unlocked bathroom to the next room, many students say.

“If [my suitemates] leave their door unlocked, then someone can come into my room, too,” Aniruddha Krishna, a junior who has lived in Mahoney, said.

“When I first saw that there were no locks I was so shocked,” alumnus Violaine De L’Aulnoit said of her experience living in Pearson Residential College last year. “How was I supposed to feel comfortable without a lock?”

After several incidents of students locking themselves in the bathrooms, the fire department mandated that the university remove the locks to be in compliance with fire safety issues.

According to the Coral Gables Fire Department, there should be two exits per living unit in case of a fire. Each suite in the residence halls, deemed a fire hazard by the fire department during a routine building inspection, counts as one living unit. The removal of the locks from the bathroom doors in 2004 ensured that each room in the suites has two exits.

Gilbert Arias, assistant vice president for Student Affairs, said the university regularly meets with the fire department regarding all buildings on campus and has hired a private company to inspect and certify all of the university’s fire and safety equipment.

“Safety is paramount in case of fire,” he said.

But are the fire safety regulations jeopardizing students’ security and right to privacy?

“It’s dangerous if someone sketchy takes advantage of the fact that the rooms are connected and come into my room or while I’m in the bathroom,” said Ratcha Erpaiboon, a junior who lived in Pearson.

In January 2007, former UM student Michael Anthony Anderson was arrested for entering an unlocked Pearson suite and sexually assaulting the sleeping female victim. He was also accused of stealing some of her belongings before leaving.

Junior Dayna Candela said she doesn’t feel safe without locks.

“If anything, UM should have locks on the outside of the bathroom doors for when we go to sleep,” Candela said. “I feel more secure being able to lock my side of the bathroom.”

Candela also recalls an incident in which the lack of bathroom locks compromised her boyfriend’s privacy. “[My suitemate] didn’t hear the shower turn off and had just walked in on my boyfriend [while he was using the shower],” Candela said.

Arias suggests that students set up “suite meetings” to discuss bathroom rules and guidelines or to set up a system so that everyone can use the bathroom comfortably, without the fear of being barged in on.

“Issues between roommates can be worked out,” he said.

Last year, Arias said there have been no cases of crime or theft due to unlocked doors on campus, but agrees it is a concern. “It’s never safe to leave doors open,” he said.

The bathrooms will remain without locks because there needs to be several ways to escape a fire, Arias said.

If the Coral Gables Fire Department agreed to it, Patricia A. Whitely, vice president for Student Affairs, said she is “willing to explore new ideas” if students presented them. One such idea is the installation of a lock on each side of the bathroom door that could be opened using a universal key that would be provided to each suitemate.

Fast food culture ‘slowed’ down by green movement Increased global awareness stimulates growth of idea

BY KARUNYA KRISHNAN CONTRIBUTING STAFF NEWS WRITER

Fast food conglomerates have swept the nation in popularity and presence, with food being produced and prepared en masse.

Some college students nationwide have joined a movement to break this trend and “slow” things down.

Slow Food International, a non-profit grassroots organization, was founded in 1989 to counteract fast food and spread awareness about how food affects the consumer as well as the environment. The organization aims to promote the consumption of fresh, highquality local foods that are produced using safe and fair practices.

Donna Reno, leader of Slow Food’s Miami chapter, says food consciousness is “coming of age in this country.”

“We believe in the pleasure of the table combined with the responsibility towards the environment,” Reno said.

The movement was sparked in 1986 when journalist and activist Carlo Petrini campaigned against the opening of a McDonald’s at the Spanish Steps, a monumental stairway in Rome. He protested the restaurant’s opening by serving fresh, “real” Italian food at piazzas throughout the country. Although Petrini’s protesting was unsuccessful, Slow Food took off three years later.

“When western food culture arrived in Italy it could barely survive, even though it was gaining popularity all over Europe,” Reno said. “Petrini’s movement had an effect all over the European community and now it is all over the world.”

Slow food boasts 85,000 members internationally and more than 16,000 members in the U.S. The organization is now attempting to work with college students to start Slow Food on-campus chapters.

Katy McNulty, 23, a student at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, is currently in the process of starting a Slow Food chapter on her campus.

“As students, we have a lot of energy,” McNulty said. “We also have access to a number of facilities, and with a huge student population it is easier to spread the word.”

“There is a great emphasis on preserv-

ing our connection with the people who grow and cook our food and coming together to eat the food.” McNulty said.

Reno said there are currently no campus chapters in South Florida, but people are quickly “waking up to it.” Slow Food Miami, established in 2003, was the first and only chapter in Florida. There are now 10 chapters around the state.

Science educator Scott Lewis is a member of Slow Food Miami and has attended several of the chapter’s monthly events.

“The [events] are a fun way to connect with food-conscious people,” Lewis said.

Lewis worked with University of Miami faculty to organize a food ethics conference at the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science.

“It is important that people enjoy food slowly in the company of others, rather than in a drive-through as fast as they can,” Lewis said.

Slow Food Miami will be hosting its next event at Fairchild Tropical Garden on September 21.

UM recognized at Best Buddies conference

The Rat lets students be at the game ‘in spirit’

BY FELIPE A. YANEZ

SENIOR STAFF WRITER

NEWS EDITOR

The University of Miami may be a good place to tan or play football, but it’s also a great place to meet your newest “best buddy.”

The Best Buddies chapter at the University of Miami received an Outstanding Chapter Award at the 19th Annual Student Leadership Conference, held this past summer in Bloomington, Ind. Best Buddies International is a global non-profit organization that enriches the lives of people with mental and intellectual disabilities by providing them with a oneon-one friendship, or a “best buddy.” UM’s chapter was one of 18 college chapters recognized nationwide out of a pool of over 400 participants.

“They really did an outstanding job this year,” said Megan Horner, a representative from Best Buddies International. “I was really impressed.” Horner also said that for a chapter to be recognized, the quality of the friendships must be strong and the interactions frequent.

UM’s chapter raised over $1,000 and

had outings with their buddies every month, which is more often than most chapters. They attended UM basketball games, visited the Metro Zoo in Miami, and also participated in the Walk for Autism.

The number of one-to-one friendships within the chapter also played a big role in their recognition. Under last year’s chapter president Ekta Nagar, UM’s Best Buddies chapter more than doubled their friendships, from 8 in 06-07, to 20 in 07-08.

“The biggest thing we noticed [in recognizing UM] was communication,” Horner said. UM’s chapter maintained a strong relationship with the Best Buddies global headquarters, which is located in Miami.

Like the UM chapter, Best Buddies International has grown considerably in the past 20 years, from one chapter at Georgetown University, to over 1,400 chapters internationally.

Students who can’t attend away football games can feel like they’re there “in spirit” at the campus Rathskeller, students say.

While Saturday’s UM football game took place in Gainesville, Fla., the Rat was jam-packed with a clamorous cluster of Canes who came to the on-campus restaurant to support their team from afar.

“The Rat is the next best place to watch the game because there are a lot of people here,” said Jacqueline Petro, a senior majoring in marine science. Petro added that for a rivalry game, she’d rather watch the game at the Rat than an off-campus house party.

Sophomore Matt Levin, who was described by friends as the “biggest Canes fan ever,” said that although he usually goes to the Rat to watch football games, he believes the main reason others go is convenience.

Levin, however, disagrees.

“Why do I come here? To see Miami kick ass,” Levin said.

HURRICANE IKE

Category 3 storm could impact campus Crisis Decision Team to discuss evening classes Monday afternoon

BY MATTHEW BUNCH OF THE STAFF

Hurricane Ike is a category three storm with sustained winds at 120 miles per hour located approximately 450 miles away from the University of Miami, according to the National Hurricane Center.

The current tracking from the NHC places most of mainland South Florida outside of the “cone of uncertainty,” which approximates the location of the center of the storm.

It is likely that Miami will feel some impact from Ike, but it depends on whether the center of the storm tracks northward into the Florida Straits, closer to the University of Miami, or south over Cuba and its mountains, which would likely weaken the storm and take it farther away.

As of Sunday night, the university will open as scheduled Monday, but its Crisis Decision Team will meet at 6:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. to discuss whether or not to hold evening activities, including classes.

opinion the canetoonist: by ahmed fahim

editorial

Hurricane Preparation In case you’ve been dwelling under a rock for the past few days, Hurricane Ike, a serious Category 4 storm, is spinning just a few hundred miles away from our sunny shores. It looks like it’s preparing to crush Cuba, but what does that mean for Miami?

If you can recall three years ago (seniors, time to feel old), the trifecta of Katrina, Wilma, and Rita hit our campus with tremendous force. After the fact, the arboretum was trashed, debris littered our walkways and gas stations were backed up for hours. Whether you believe the forecast or just hope for some free days off of school, proper precautions should be taken when a hurricane is looming.

During the aforementioned storms, the university took special precautions. Chartwells provided boxed meals and the dorms remained under lockdown. Whether you’re pissed off because you can’t leave your dorm room for that much-needed cigarette, or you just want to experience the storm first-hand, think about safety. Is it really worth it to get blown away?

Currently, Ike is not supposed to hit South Florida directly, but we will surely get a heavy breeze or two. Go to Publix and stock up on the essentials.

Bottled water, Ramen Noodles, extra towels for that leak in the ceiling, and gasoline should be the least of what you get. You might be spending a few days indoors, so buy a board game: Monopoly and Risk usually kill a few hours.

Plan for the worst, hope for the best; that should be your mantra. Plan for leaky ceilings, broken windows and class cancellations and hope for… well, class cancellations. The university and the people who run it have been through this before, so don’t panic. Buckle in for whatever may come.

Wherever you end up tomorrow night and whatever you end up doing, just be safe and smart. We’ll see you Thursday… hopefully.

Pleased to meet you! (Not really) Whether you’re a freshman experiencing the first taste of college life or a sixth-year senior doing your best Van Wilder impression, the start of the school year is always an exciting time for all UM undergrads. That’s because a new semester generally means new friends.

But before you find any potential college BFFs, first you have to meet people and actually have conversations with them, and that doesn’t always turn out as planned.

Some people are terrible with names. My short-term memory is so bad, I will forget your name within seconds of meeting you.

“Hey, I’m Jennifer. Nice to meet you.”

“I’m Felipe. Nice meeting you, Pedro.”

That brings up another interesting point. Is it ever truly “nice to meet you”? Typically within the first 27 seconds of meeting someone, I can determine if you’re someone I actually want to hang

out with, or if I’ll deny your Facebook friend request the moment I receive it. Perhaps we should be more upfront and when meeting new people.

“Pleased to meet you.” “Nice to meet you too. Wait. No I’m not.

The only reason I’m shaking your hand is because you’re my roommate’s cousin, and I heard you liked hip-hop. But after noticing that Vanilla Ice haircut, I’m retracting my ‘nice to meet you.’ Truth is, it actually sucks to meet you.”

When a guy meets another guy, a simple handshake will do just fine. The “soul shake” (two alternate grip handshakes followed by a man hug) should only be performed by professionals (i.e., black guys). Watching two white dudes try this is like watching Jewish people dance. It’s a little awkward.

Under no circumstances, should the “fist pound” be used. This isn’t Deal or No Deal.

Lastly, when meeting someone new, most people wait to talk rather than listen to what the other has to say. This is perfectly normal, and is actually desired in most conver-

sations. This gives you the opportunity to make mental judgments about the other’s appearance. Let’s face it, the other person is probably boring, and you can draw a better conclusion based on their clothes and appearance than the sounds coming from their mouth. “’Sup bro! I’m Craig, what do you think blahblahblah…”

“Hey, he has Greek letters on his shirt. He must drink lots of beer, throw awesome parties, and have lots of female friends. Oh wait, that says Kappa Sigma, never mind.”

If you make a great first impression, you can go from being the kid who played Magic the Gathering in high school to Big Man on Campus. Or, you can be lame, awkward, have no friends, and spend your Friday nights playing Werewolves vs. Vampires on Facebook.

The choice is yours!

“Maybe a quick chat can save you thousands over the next (very important) few years of your life.”

– Joshua W. Newman, Opinion Editor

Revolution, anyone?

After the spectacle that was the Democratic National Convention in Denver, the country now turned its attention to St. Paul, Minn., where the Republicans coronated their own nominee, John McCain, in a four-day celebration that was a tense affair as the party attempted to shed its affiliation with President Bush and prepared itself to accept the candidacy of a senator whose voting record and moderate views have disenfranchised the conservative base for years.

Across the river in Minneapolis, a whole different party took center stage. The crowd was not composed of delegates but of anti-government and anti-war libertarians who gathered for the Rally for the Republic, a massive grassroots effort organized by Ron Paul’s incredibly successful Campaign for Liberty, an Internet outreach movement that has raised millions of dollars in just three months of existence.

The Texas representative who dazzled

crowds while campaigning for president on the Republican Party ticket this past primary season has, much like Barack Obama, inspired a new generation of youth voters and reinvigorated not only the libertarian contingent, but also many Republican and independent voters angry over the failed policies of both the Bush administration and Democrat-controlled Congress.

Paul’s tough rhetoric towards government interference and his extreme opposition to the war in Iraq have earned him a cult-like following that has started the calls for a revolution. But it is the congressman’s conservative ideologies in his views of the economy and foreign policy amidst a recession and uncertainty abroad that has drawn attention from the mainstream media and undecided voters alike.

In July, I had the opportunity to attend the Ron Paul March on the mall in Washington D.C., where thousands gathered to hear the man they call Dr. Paul. The former OBGYN turned acclaimed statesmen spoke on the lagging economy, government inter-

vention and the housing crisis, displaying the certain zeal that has defined his nearly 20 years in public office.

For me, it was refreshing to see a politician so in-line with the core issues that most affect the American public and one with an impeccably consistent voting record. As I looked around the crowd, I saw men, women, college students, blacks, whites, and Hispanics all captivated by a man who they feel is their only voice left in Washington.

Reminiscent of Barry Goldwater’s youth movement in 1964, this was not just your typical conventional protest campaign but also one that represented a larger ideal: a renewed fight against the establishment.

As the Beatles said it, perhaps it is time for a revolution against what we have become all too accustomed. Maybe then, we might just discover true, lasting change.

UP!

Keep watch on your wallet

“I’d buy a missile for my protection against Wal-Mart.”

Oh Miami. For people in our age group, fresh off the boat, out in the wild, left to fend for themselves, the main stressors are those infamous dolla dolla billz.

Money. It’s the root of all evil and something we always wish we could have more of, but have no way of getting any. It seems as though no matter how much you’re making, that savings account is always dwindling a little bit faster than it accumulates.

It really is damn tough to manage your own money. Dealing with roommates, cable, electric, water, RENT. What about food, you need to eat! Mommy’s not packing your lunch anymore.

But there are a few ways to calm your nerves after checking out that pathetic bank

account. For one, write things down. It’ll help you organize your life. If you have a handle on your money, you’ll feel more confident and you won’t have that dark rain cloud floating over your head.

In a place where people are so financially varied, from Shaquille O’Neal to the crackheads downtown, there is a way to live and live well, without swiping daddy’s credit card for use on South Beach four nights a week.

For one, go to the supermarket. It’s cheaper to spend $60 or $70 every other week than to spend $15 two or three times a day. Also, think about all the beauty that surrounds Miami. A lot of that beauty can be enjoyed for free. The BEACH, anyone?

If you don’t want to be smart with your money, be my guest. It would actually be an interesting experiment to watch from the

blogs.TheMiamiHurricane.com:

outside. Throw a prime 18-year-old college student into the cocaine capital of the world with a few hundred bucks in their bank account and see what happens. See how long it takes for the vices to pull them in.

But that’s the cynic in me speaking. I do want every single one of you to succeed and be financially intelligent. Not everyone has a trust fund waiting for them post-graduation.

If you need any assistance, I wouldn’t hesitate to contact one of the many outstanding economics or finance professors that scatter the business school. They might know more than you think. Who knows, maybe a quick chat can save you thousands over the next (very important) few years of your life.

These under-the-radar clubs and lounges are amazing destinations for a night out with friends or a date you’re trying to impress with your nightlife know-how. One of these places is White Room, in the design district in downtown Miami.

White Room is located downtown between random old buildings and factories a few blocks off of US-1, but don’t be fooled by its surroundings. As soon as you enter White Room, you know you’re in for something you haven’t yet experienced in Miami – a relaxed outdoor/indoor venue with good music and genuinely fun people.

The first time this club was made relevant to a lot of people was when they hosted nightly events during 2007’s Winter Music Conference, and with guests like DJ A-Trak, Moby and Calvin Harris, music nerds from all corners of Miami gathered to their new favorite venue.

White Room consists of three sections: the White Room (fittingly), the main room, where there is a main stage either reserved for either performers or drunken females showing off sexy moves; the Red Room, a small section equipped with a bar, a DJ booth and a dance floor so intimate it may be hard to leave the room alone; and the outdoor section, a tropical escape for tired dancers, outfitted with cabanas and yet another bar.

Being only twenty minutes from campus, White Room is conveniently located just a $20 cab ride away. Though the drinks there may be a bit expensive, they’re roughly the same as any other Miami nightclub, but there is never a cover charge for parties.

In the off chance you don’t fall in love with White Room, it is one of three clubs on one street – the other two being hip-hop haven PS 14 and hipster locale the Vagabond.

A promotions company called PopLife manages and plans parties at all three venues, and by bringing in different crowds, DJs and performers, there’s no end to the diversity you can experience on North Miami Avenue.

One unspoken requirement for a PopLife party, however, is to dress not only to impress but to damn near shock and awe. During any given night out at White Room, you might see anything from a suit cut into a short-sleeve shirt and shorts and accented with hi-tops, to a open-backed dress cut so low that one slight bend just might cause an unsuspecting man to fall out of his chair. So, be prepared to pull out that pastel tank-top and skinny jeans you’ve been too embarrassed to wear, because White Room is all about looking fresh and forward, but being comfortable while you do it.

If you’re stuck this weekend between the typical Grove, the expensive South Beach or an overcrowded house party, try out something new with White Room. Just make sure you don’t tell too many people you’re going, because the essence of White Room is that it’s a diamond in the rough of Miami.

White Room is located at 1306 North Miami Avenue, Miami, FL. For more information, visit whiteroommiami.com or White Room’s MySpace.

CD REVIEW: SOLANGE KNOWLES

CD REVIEW: THE GAME

Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams LAX lacking in lyrical enlightenment

BY MONICA PAGE

BY SAM ROTENBERG

CONTRIBUTION EDGE WRITER

CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER

Using the past as a way to step out on her own, Solange Knowles’ new album Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams is built around the sounds and ideals of the ‘60s and ‘70s. The title song, “I Decided,” cowritten and co-produced by Solange and the production duo The Neptunes takes a step away from their normal futuristic sounds for a stripped down piano-handclap-tambourine beat that focuses more on lyrical content than production.

As the only guest artist on the album, Bilal contributes both his vocals and songwriting talent to the song “Cosmic Journey,” an electronica-based duet about love. Solange also gives a direct dedication to one of her influences through “Ode to Marvin,” a rewritten, personalized version of Gaye’s 1971 classic “What’s Going On.” Gracefully complementing the production, the subject matter of Sol-Angel ranges from falling in love, falling out of love, and the fragility of being in love, all in tracks co-written by Solange (except “T.O.N.Y.”). Unlike the majority of singers today, Solange relies more on balanc-

ing quality lyrical content and production than an album tainted with vocal gymnastics. Overall, Sol-Angel is a solid album that helps set Solange on a path unattached to B’s shadow.

In 2006, rapper The Game released his second LP, The Doctor’s Advocate. Two years, one four-month trip to prison and countless struggles with estranged supporters Dr. Dre and 50 Cent later, The Game has dropped LAX. Like so many others, The Game has said this album would be his last, because he supposedly has nothing left to prove.

However, the album – a 19-track featureheavy compilation – is definitely not a high note for The Game to leave off on.

The album starts with a prayer from rap’s new preacher, DMX, and just as you press next, The Game brings you the somber and boring “LAX Files.” A few skippable tracks later, Lil’ Wayne lends a T-Wayne singing feature to his West Coast cohort on “My Life.”

Ultimately, this album is marred by poor production and boring lyricism, save for a few tracks: ”Dope Boys,” “Cali Sunshine” and “Angel.” On “Angel”, Game scores Kanye production and a Common feature for a cliché-yet-catchy ode to their love – hip-hop.

In previous albums, listeners looked forward to an entire album of hearing The Game’s witty lyricism and knocking production picks – no matter how vulgar or hard it

1 out of 4 stars

got – because they knew what to expect. But on LAX, The Game enlists so many features (there are only three solo songs!) that any message he was trying to get across gets far too diluted and commercialized.

If this truly is his last album, he better not expect to be mentioned in the same breath as Pac, Biggie and Jay-Z... or even Weezy Baby.

COMMENTARY

Beyond the Loss Young Canes fall to Gators but grow up in the process One letter sums up the Hurricanes’ performance on Saturday night against the Florida Gators: L. When everything was all said and done, and when

BY PRAVIN people will look PATEL back at this game, SPORTS EDITOR all they will see and remember is that the Hurricanes lost.

What the record books won’t show is that this young Canes team battled for three quarters against a No. 5 Florida team that most expected to blow the Hurricanes away.

All that will be seen and remembered is a box score that reads 26-3.

Yes, it is true that a loss is a loss, no matter how you look at it. But, in my eyes, it is not that simple.

Though I understand and agree that there are no moral victories in football, I do believe that this statement is not that clear cut.

This game was much closer than the final score reflects, and you better believe that the UM coaches and players know it.

“It was an exciting game against Florida,” head coach Randy Shannon said.

“I’m proud of these guys. We didn’t quit.

We had a shot in the fourth quarter. That’s all we want on the road against a No. 5 team. It just got away from us.”

The Canes have a lot to be proud of on a number of fronts.

The offensive and defensive lines played hard. In terms of protecting redshirt freshman Robert Marve, the line did a solid job. Marve had time to look down field and make some plays with his legs. They did struggle when it came to opening up holes for the running game, but the loss of starting running back Javarris James in the first quarter, and offensive coordinator Patrick Nix’s play calling did not help.

The defensive line put a lot of pres-

Marve provided optimism about the future of the Canes’ quarterback situation.

He showed intelligence, made plays with his legs and he didn’t turn the ball over. He has a lot to learn, and we still haven’t seen

him air it out, but the future seems bright.

The biggest area of concern, for me, was with Nix. It makes sense that he wanted to keep the offense simple with Marve making his first collegiate start, but he called a way too conservative game.

He did have a couple of good play calls, but, in my opinion, he was the reason

the Canes’ offense couldn’t get things going. This looked like the Miami Dolphins offense of a few years ago, where the play calling was simple: “Run Ricky Run.” It is no shock that the running backs had a tough night; Florida was able to stack the line and plug holes, knowing the Hurricanes were not going to air it out.

The wide receivers dropping easy passes didn’t help the situation. The unit did make some good plays, but they were unable to get the needed separation to help out the freshman quarterback, and when they did get some separation, it seemed like it was a 50-50 toss-up as to whether or not the ball would be caught or dropped.

The linebackers were also an anomaly. At times, they looked sharp – especially true freshman Sean Spence. But at times, everyone was left wondering where the linebackers were, as there were huge gaps in the middle of the field.

Looking back, though, the most disconcerting factor of the game came down to a very controversial play – an overturned pass reception that has been ruled incomplete. The problem with the call: It changed the face of the game. The Gators ultimately went on to score a touchdown as a direct result. This was the defining moment of the game, a moment the young Canes were unable to overcome.

According to Shannon, “If that didn’t happen, then we were out of that situation and ready to move the ball down the field.”

So, yes, the team had some downs, but they also had many ups. This team is young and this game was a major step in the right direction: growth with each play.

What does this all mean?

The Canes were predicted to finish third in the ACC Coastal Division, but after this game, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Canes were playing in Tampa on December 6 for the ACC Championship.

COMMENTARY

No Such Thing as a Moral Victory Bright future doesn’t cover losing performance There is no such thing as a moral victory.

M i ami lost on Saturday night.

BY DAN T h e y STEIN fought SENIOR SPORTS hard, but WRITER that does not change the fact that this program still could not pull out the big win.

Miami is a young team.

Anybody who gives the depth chart a look can tell you that.

Against the Gators, they looked very young.

Bad penalties killed the Canes at key junctures.

A neutral zone infraction gave Florida new life on their first quarter scoring drive.

A personal foul penalty killed a first half Hurricane drive.

An end zone pass interference call on a third down set up the second Gator touchdown.

These are the mistakes of young, immature teams.

The thing about youth is that it frustrates while also bringing hope. “We’ll get ‘em next

year” is a lot easier to deal with than “we should have got them this year.”

Youth garners free passes from hopeful fans.

To be sure, Miami has a great future. The first half proved that this team can play with anybody. In fact, after this game, I fully expect Miami to appear in the ACC championship game this year.

However, the fact that this team is young does not get the Canes a “free pass” for this loss.

In this game, it was the 21.5 point underdog Hurricanes that choked.

The Miami defense was brilliant in the first half; it looked like it had been imported from five years ago. Tim Tebow looked uncomfortable. Several times, Miami had the ball and the chance to take the lead.

But they did not.

Quarterback Robert Marve showed a lot of moxie. But the offense just could not find a way to beat the Gators’ speed. It was the same story of the past three seasons.

And therein lies the problem.

It is time for this team to start winning. It is young, but there are plenty of guys who

have been around the block, too.

The excuses have to stop.

This loss was too typical of what this program was. For the team to get to where they are going, winning has to become the expectation, not the exception.

The change in culture is occurring.

Sean Spence has been the best player on the team. Marve and Jacory Harris have been an immediate upgrade over the past five years of quarterback play.

And there are plenty more who could be written about if I had more space.

It is the beginning of the end of an era. The guys who have been on the field for the past three disappointing seasons are being phased out.

However, with this culture change comes new expectations.

Randy Shannon will be the first to tell you: even a tough loss is still a loss.

This program is about winning. The UF loss was unacceptable and a massive choke job.

Simply put: there are no moral victories.

REPORT CARD: MIAMI V. FLORIDA

BY LELAN LEDOUX // SENIOR STAFF WRITER QUARTERBACKS:

C+

It wasn’t a bad debut for Robert Marve. The redshirt freshman didn’t turn the ball over and he surely didn’t look scared against the Gators. He even executed a few designed runs up the middle.

Marve looked really good on the run and with play action. Despite playing only two series, Jacory Harris came in poised against the Gators. The problem is they didn’t do anything to help lead a Canes touchdown. Not too bad, but just not enough

RUNNING BACKS:

C

It is tough to see your number one running back Javarris James get injured in the first quarter after just two carries. Graig Cooper had to carry the load for the most of the game and finished with only 36 yards. It was a difficult night for the Hurricanes to get anything against the Gators.

WIDE RECEIVERS/ TIGHT ENDS:

C-

The wide out core came out with two dropped passes on the first series for the Hurricanes. That cannot happen with a young quarterback group. But they did rebound and play well for the rest of game.

Both groups need to get more separation against their defenders. Offensive coordinator Patrick Nix has to find a way to get his playmakers the ball in the open field.

OFFENSIVE LINE:

C

It was a rough night for the O-Line. They struggled blocking the front four and never seemed to make it to the next level. The good part about the line was they gave Marve time to get the ball off. It all starts up front.

DEFENSIVE LINE:

A-

Do not let the score deceive you: the defensive line were chasing down Tim Tebow. It seemed like Tebow got agitated getting hit every single play. The player rotation was great, and each player didn’t miss a beat. Florida couldn’t get the running game going at all except when Tebow would scramble down field on good coverage. If they can bring this every week then 12

the Canes will be in great shape, especially against lesser opponents.

LINEBACKERS:

B

Once again do not let the score deceive you. The linebacker crew was flying around and was laying the wood. They did leave the field open a couple times, but they were stopping everything that came in the field. They hardly missed a tackle, which is a great sign for the rest of the season.

Freshman Sean Spence looked impressive and seemed to be all over the field. Spence will be a freshman All-American.

SECONDARY:

C

The D-backs held their own for a while against the Gators.

Safety Anthony Reddick was playing with plenty of intensity out there. The Canes still haven’t had an interception this season.

SPECIAL TEAMS:

F

After getting an A+ last week, the Canes’ special teams unit couldn’t pull out the same grade.

They didn’t execute their game plan against Florida. Matt Bosher’s 14-yard shank punt on the Canes’ first series set up Florida’s first touchdown. Bosher’s blocked punt led to a safety. That’s nine points that were given to the Gators. Also, the Hurricanes have to find someone who will become a threat on kick returns.

COACHING:

D+

Randy Shannon did his part in preparing his team to face a difficult team at a hostile stadium.

The team was focused but had some early game jitters. This grade is mostly put on offensive coordinator Patrick Nix. Nix needs to unleash Marve more. Some shots down field need to be taken if they wanted to pull an upset. Young is the saving grace here, as he was very impressive with his play calls and his squad kept Tebow contained for three quarters. The defensive line and linebacker schemes had Tebow and the offensive line confused. Young is dedicated to making the Hurricanes a top defense in the nation.

Holding court at home Undefeated Canes win Hurricane Invitational

BY JUSTIN ANTWEIL STAFF SPORTS WRITER

The University of Miami volleyball team is off to its best start since 2002, when the Hurricanes opened up the season 15-0.

This weekend the Hurricanes improved to 7-0, defeating three teams in the eighth annual Hurricane Invitational at the Knights Sports Complex.

The Hurricanes opened up the tournament Thursday night against South Dakota State. The Hurricanes swept the Jackrabbits 3-0 as junior Genny Mayhew recorded her third double-double in kills and digs.

The Canes played a double header Saturday. On Saturday morning they faced Alabama, dropping the opening set but coming back to win the next three sets to take the match 3-1. Last year the Hurricanes won just three times after dropping the first set.

The Canes capped off the weekend by sweeping the Virginia Commonwealth University Rams 3-0 on Saturday evening.

“They had quality shots, quality opportunities,” Taliaferro said.

“But they weren’t as difficult because of good defense and pressure, so that they weren’t clean shots on goal.”

Friday night, the Canes cruised 3-0 against Arkansas-Little Rock (1-4-0).

Juniors Jessica Wyble and Ricks-Chambers both notched unassisted goals, their first of the season, within four minutes of each other to lead the Hurricanes to a 2-0 lead at the half.

“Paulelette is a special player,” said Taliaferro about her midfielder’s recovery from a knee injury.

In its first road trip of the season, the women’s soccer team continued where it left off at home, taking both road games in dominating fashion.

On Sunday afternoon, Miami (5-0-0) defeated Memphis (2-1-1), its toughest opponent thus far, 3-0 behind two goals from sophomore Lauren Singer and a team-leading sixth of the year from sophomore Brittney Steinbruch.

Freshman goalie Vikki Alonzo saved six shots as she and the defense recorded their fourth shutout in five games and second of the

“She’s better than she was before it and she feeds off energy and more game experience.”

The Hurricanes outshot the Trojans 25-1, a testament to the solid play of the Canes offense and defense.

“Defense usually doesn’t get the recognition it deserves, but it was the key to our success and determination,” Taliaferro said.

Miami faces tournamentparticipant Purdue (3-1-1) at 7 p.m. Wednesday night at Cobb Stadium.
