Which makes for an interesting question.

Manny’s primary downfall was accumulated failures in talent acquisition at linebacker and the secondary. His early use of the transfer portal helped in the latter, but ultimately he was still affected by high school recruiting misses. Had the portal coupled with NIL existed during his tenure at Miami throughout his tenure, might he still be here today? Offensive line was a huge problem his first year - Manny would have targeted that prior to the start of the 2019 season. Ditto with linebacker. He would have also pushed for a veteran transfer portal quarterback to come in as opposed to relying on a redshirt freshman.

What happens on that board nowadays? Endless threads on their battles for 3-Stars with FIU and North Texas? How Castellanos is gonna win the Heisman this year? 2025 revenge year?

I’m pretty sure every coach we fired over the last 20 years would have done a lot better if given the resources that Mario has. Including NIL and transfer portal. Would any of them been championship coaches? I don’t know about that but we consistently asked our coaches to win at a big boy level with a little boy budget.

The only one who I think would have ultimately succeeded was Al Golden. His problem, as always, was coach No D. I do think had Golden gotten rid on him in 2013, that he would have had a shot. And with NIL today Golden would've been a consistent 9-10 win coach a year, with the occasional hit.
 
I think Golden will still be that, in addition to would have been that already.

Golden is in an interesting position. I genuinely think he will get a solid P4 job in the next year or two. If Freeman bolts for the NFL, there's a decent change Golden gets the ND job, especially if they win the natty. Either way, it's interesting to see a guy work his way back up. Unfortunately, Golden won't get the PSU job as long as Franklin wants it, which is his ultimate goal.

Also, there is the NFL path. Lots of smoke there too.

They are talking about Miami and for their sports it's golf, baseball, softball, lacrosse, tennis, soccer.
