I would expect the official annoincement by Miami tonight or tomorrow.
Sounds like they are giving him everything he has asked for. Stay tuned.
Please dear baby Jesus.
All this said….I do feel a little bad for Diaz. Guy is actively working as UM’s head coach while waiting to hear if Cristobal accepts and replaces him.
The business of college football can be really shitty.
Manny made his bed with his lackluster results.
The last straw was that pussy, rush 3, play soft zone on 4th and 14 call with the game on the line against FSU. The FSU QB literally never even looked off his primary. Notice how aggressively Bama and Georgia played in obvious passing situations last night. None of that stupid, passive Golden-Dono ball bullshyt.
GTFO, Manny.
Don’t disagree with any of this.
That and going conservative at the end against UVA. Unacceptable. Football is all about imposing your will - and we were doing that all the way down the field.
I can’t get this excited for Mario Cristobal. Sorry.
I actually give him somewhat of a pass on UVA. The kid should have made the chip shot FG to win the game. That’s on Borregales IMHO.
Can’t he worse than what we have now………can it?
Who would you have preferred?
Meyer
Dabo
Kelly
Leach
Jimbo
Mullen
Stoops
Ferentz

Mario doesn’t excite me whatsoever. But what the hell do I know? I’d give him a chance.
I’d be happy with anyone on that list.
If Cristobal is as good a recruiter at Miami (if he comes), and can keep the Dade Broward Palm Beach kids to stay home……can’t see us being any worse
Pair Mario with good coordinators and he will do fine.
Pull in Top 10 Classes year after year and pretty soon, you’re talking a good team.
Why should a 5-time champion Miami settle for a one dimensional coach that requires help actually coaching? This is the problem. We need a complete AD and a complete coach.
I think Mario can succeed but he’s just not a needle mover to me. He’s an older Manny Diaz to me. A Cuban Al Golden.
Someone please tell me these rumours of manny staying on as DC is horseshit.
I was wondering why his firing wasn’t announced yet. Please let this be bogus
Wouldn’t bother me. He proved under Richt he can coach the defense.
All of the names that you listed are either not needle movers or impossible to get.
Secondly, Mario has two pac 12 titles on his resume…so to compare him to diaz or golden, two coaches who have won nothing, is pretty silly.
Mario was not my first choice either (I wanted an nfl coach), but let’s not get ridiculous here.
I wouldn’t be bothered either. He would need better recruiting and go back to the more aggressive model under Richt and I’d be happy.
I’m much more interested in the OC. Lashlee should be the template and I don’t see us reverting so hopefully it works out.
You have your opinion- I have mine.
Anyone is gettable. You just need to commit to getting them. You think Alabama or ND or OSU sees anyone as “impossible to get?”
The PAC12 is ACC West. It’s not this juggxrnaught conference like the SEC or Big10 in my opinion. So I say- whatever. Cool- he won out there with a top 3 budget. He’s done nothing that screams big money.
So you agree with me but just want to argue. Got it. Lol.
That’s racist. 
No way this happens. Diaz was a good DC, but that’d be fucking weird. Some players may develop some loyalty to him vs the new HC. No way this happens.
Alfredo (Jose) Dorado 
(Every Cuban has a Jose in their name) 
nope, i disagree with you comparing cristobal, who won two conference titles, to diaz and golden who both won nothing. can you joke about the pac 12 all you want, but the same can be said about the ACC and you see what is possible by dominating it (clemson).
