Mario’s Replacement

They should. I am not sure he has posted a list recently. It may be in the coaching movement thread somewhere.


I would defer to wiser football minds on the hire, and lean more into eliminating excuses -- like it does not need to be a Miami guy, a winning program at Miami will bring in money to the overall school - so do not get caught up in nickel and diming it -- would also err on the side of rather than paying a huge buyout now - go the OK St/FSU route and having salary put into the NIL/player acquisition coffers for Mario.

I think all that’s fair and at least you’re referring to actual options, albeit those that someone else suggested (which is fine). I just can’t stand people who scream “it sucks! fix it!!!” But have no actual solutions to offer other than ****ing and moaning. Appreciate the legit response.

Not true Ryan Day is 67-10 and Ohio st fans want him gone. Maybe for a week the Tennessee game cools things down. How many years would it take a Miami football coach to win 67 games?

Not much longer if we had the same financial resources, infrastructure, fan support and tradition they’ve had over the last 20 years.

We seem to have a good sized contingent of fans who don’t think Mario is the guy.

Honest question for discussion, if you got your wish and he was fired who would you want to take his place and why? I’m asking for specific names and what they bring to table and why they’d be an upgrade. Some things to consider…

-Has to be realistic. Don’t list Kirby Smart or another coach at an established power we’d never get.

-What would UM be willing to pay?

-Risky up and comer or established coach?

-Can a coach navigate all the BS that comes with coaching at UM? Local handlers, small alumni base and fan support, the dynamics of S Florida recruiting, etc.

Appreciate the genuine discussion (although I know I likely won’t get it here lol)
I say we wait until the offspring of Manny Diaz and Al Golden combine and conceive a future head coach.

Not sure if that’s stupid or not but it’s not nearly as stupid a response as the question was.

There’s your answer

lol even if we wanted to fire him today, we couldn't afford it. hes here for a while regardless of win loss results. so better question is, who are the candidates that are primed to take over after Marios 10 years?
