Wanted to let you guys know something we heard from two independent sources tonight -- that Jim Mastro, the RBs coach/RG coordinator at Oregon under Cristobal, might very well be joining him in Miami. It’s not a done deal according to them but it's close, and if it comes to pass, you guys will be getting a great recruiter and one helluva coach. We covered Mastro when he was at Washington State for six seasons (2012-17). His running backs would have run through a wall for him at WSU. I’ll link one of the stories we did below regarding his recruiting under Mike Leach. Don't think it's in the story below but Mastro was also the co-creator of the Pistol with Chris Ault at Nevada.
A lot of coaches have one or the other -- great recruiter or teacher/tactician supreme, but Mastro’s one of those guys who is the full package. He’d be switching coasts if he comes to Miami, true, but his recruiting rolodex is impressive. And also don’t think it would take him long to start winning battles and unearthing hidden gems regardless of which recruiting territory Cristobal plugged him into. And if we hear anything further, will let you know but thought you guys might want to know what we’re hearing tonight.
