Mid-90s not so great

And were good up to 2003-04. Much of their "greatness" was shady at best.

Regardless, they didn't have fans filling the stadium then unless they were playing FSU or UF. That will never change unless they can get a smaller (45K-ish) stadium on or very near campus.

Like I said, if not for the fertile recruiting grounds of South Florida, Miami wouldn't be considered P5 material. Lucky for them, they'll always have that. Fans? Not so much.

EDIT: And I was talking fans where you're talking about winning. Correct me if you think UM will ever increase fan attendance in their current or past situations.
