The U is for University, forming goal posts. The colors are orange and green. Nickname: Hurricanes. His question was, where is the 'M'? Oh, I get it, the wind blew it away???

Thanks Jim. Everything you ever wanted to know about the U of "U" but U were afraid to ask. Miami has 5-10 players better than Crouch. I don't doubt that. Is Crouch another Andre Ware, Ty Detmer, Gino Toretta, or Danny Wuerffel? Tony

Even more about the Miami "U" In 1973, UM’s Athletic Federation, the fund raising arm of the athletic department at the the time, commissioned a local public relations expert to develop a distinctive logo. The University had gone several years with a variety of helmet and uniform changes and the Federaton noted that a number of major colleges have the initials UM. Miami designer Bill Bodenheimer suggested the "U" idea, which lent itself to slogans like "U gotta believe" and "U is great". hurricanesports.fansonly.com I like your explanation better, Jim. The official explanation sounds down right stupid.
