The upside I see about Miami is the fact that if I decide not to work for my dad...I'll make better connections at UM than Stetson.

Good luck with everything - I assume you know by now that Spring admissions is slightly easier at UF. Hands down, we are the best law school in the state, and one of the best in the southeast. If you get into UF, definitely accept it.
if you don't get into UF, I would consider FSU - generally viewed as the #2 Florida law school by both students and law firms. All the "prestigious" firms will schedule interviews at UF, and most of them will also go to FSU. All the in-state good firms will go to FSU too. Miami gets attention mainly from S. Florida firms.
Stetson is usually viewed as 4th place (after UF, FSU, UM). It's smaller and in a smaller city, so you're right, it's harder to network there.
hard to tell if I know the people you're listing from just 1st names, but I think I know some of them. I know Prissy's friend Dulcy pretty well, and I know several people in this new class because I helped out during their orientation. the law school is a pretty small community - weird change after the zoo of undergrad here.
good luck with everything, and glad you're not driving around drunk.
