CORAL GABLES — As former University of Miami football coach Mark Richt walked around UM’s Carol Soffer Indoor Practice Facility on Monday, he reflected on what the facility that he played significant part in making sure was built meant to him.
“Obviously had a lot to do with this as far as the planning,” Richt said to reporters about the facility he donated $1 million of his own money toward. “[Athletic director] Blake James, [deputy athletics director Jennifer] Strawley, our administration were great about wanting to know what I wanted it to look like and what needed to be done.
