On Friday, the Miami Hurricanes pulled away a close win against Virginia Tech 38-34. However, alumni and former NFL wide receiver Michael Irvin stole to show for his sideline antics during the game.
At one point, the cameras cut to a Miami huddle, and in the middle was Irvin losing his mind, presumably trying to hype the players up.
However, there are a lot of mixed reactions about it, with some praising him for his passion and others even throwing out the idea that he’s under the influence of one specific hard drug.

“You gotta love the Pride The U’s Alumni show about their program. They built it from nothing and they want it back so bad,” said one comment.
“I love Michael Irving and he’s funny as hell but in all seriousness this type of heart and Passion and leadership is a big reason why he’s a legendary HOF wideout,” said another.
Even at 58 years old, it looks as though the passion Irvin once had for his alma mater has not faded in the slightest.
Michael Irvin Attended Miami From 1985-1987
Irvin was one of the building blocks in the 1980s that brought the University of Miami to prominence in the college football scene.
When you see his numbers, you can tell why. Through his three years, he compiled 143 receptions, 2,423 yards, and 26 touchdowns.
In his last year with the team, he helped lead the charge that ended in a National Championship and would later be drafted eleventh overall by the Dallas Cowboys.
You cannot tell the history of Miami Hurricanes football without mentioning the great Irvin, who helped start it all.
