How bout neitherYou can win big in college being an average coach and great recruiter
How bout neitherYou can win big in college being an average coach and great recruiter
Cristobal doesn't have he magic potion to make kids turn down hundreds of k. It won't happen here, then all you're left with is the management skills of a dude who has already been fired as a HC before, and brings nothing schematically to the table. Give me ONE side of the ball our head coach is great at. Just one. Dabo made it because he has the DC of a lifetime that just won't leave.That's why u get the right coordinators in place. He has no problem with any of that HERE
Everyone on the defensive staff was his hire besides simpson who left and rumph it would look really shady and sketchy to fire people who you brought in and to that point had been a top defense in the nation 2 years in a row. No one would have thought our defense would have been an issue from watching manny run it amazingly for 3 years our offense was a **** hole and that was everyone's primary concern and rightfully so. The only thing I dont like and which people have been asking for a while is that we didn't go to a spread system. Who would have thought that Blake baker would struggle like thisThe first red flag to me was retaining everyone on the defensive side of the ball given that on the recruiting side, no one on that side held up their end of the bargain. Patke and Banda should not be coaching at this level, and neither have held up their end on recruiting. For as much flack as Rumph gets, he seems to at least have some idea of what he's doing and although he has a litany of misses at the CB position, he's recruited better than Banda. But still, Manny had the opportunity to improve the staff, but failed to do so for the (likely) reasons you just listed. ****'s frustrating that we make the same mistakes over and over. I swear we're the only program that does this.

When i saw them hire him im like holy **** we got Rumphs clone at wr coach. I knew he would have a problem on the trail especially with his old social media posts someone posted here. Im like fuq amatuer hour in this bytchI can’t envision Stubblefield even remotely relating with these Florida kids
People knew it would be an issue cause of the misses on the recruiting front. They did horrible recruiting mostly finding gems especially at defensive tackleEveryone on the defensive staff was his hire besides simpson who left and rumph it would look really shady and sketchy to fire people who you brought in and to that point had been a top defense in the nation 2 years in a row.

When u recruit a roster and nasty savages they had everyone looks good even Randy. Butch was a monsterEveryone of Butchs Assistants more than belonged there...
Johnson was as good of a WR coach as anyone in America...
Shannon was a Very Good LBer coach..
Pagano was/is UMs best DB & ST coach ever
Soldinger had No peers as a RB coach...etc...
How we hire Manny over this guy lol **** amazes mei wasnt a big mario guy but say what you want, he has flaws but that guy would have a top 5 recruiting class here EVERY year. once the jeuddys, dalvin cooks, and Calvin Ridley dont leave town, x's and o's aint the end all be all
Thisbis what scares me....i like Mario but can he make kids turn down 100k houses and jobs. Tall task for anyone that get this job I just cant see it happening in this era. Kids just cant turn that type of money downCristobal doesn't have he magic potion to make kids turn down hundreds of k.

Better recruiters still won't land us the elite, but at least we wouldn't have Beyonce running around at safety, linebacker depth, and oline that can move their **** feet with staffs that know what they're doing.

Only really guy I have a problem with on the staff is banda because corners are a dime a dozen in soflo and rumph is a great coach. Safety's to me require the most natural talent I need guys like jaquan and redwine in my safety every year that's what makes a team great and banda to me can't find the talent and when he does he misses. The case is still out on Stroud but not looking good for him. I think the line backing core of Joyner huff and brooks will be elite along with the freshman coming inPeople knew it would be an issue cause of the misses on the recruiting front.

That's my thought too like I truly wonder if top end kids would come here if we were say top 10 in the nation would they still choose us over bags from bama,clemson,georgia etc.Thisbis what scares me....i like Mario but can he make kids turn down 100k houses and jobs.

Thibg is OU isnt affected the way UM is by the big dogs. Bama UGA OSU LSU FSU UF directly effect UM. How we going to run a complex modern day offense without the horses? U just cant IMOFirmly believe schematic advantage is our only hope. Oklahoma was slipping until Stoops grabbed Riley. It's not like the guys a recruiter, he had scheme. Cristobal for Stoops would have been a lateral move. Going after a recruiter is going to be the death of us. Let scheme, consistency and competence be our recruiter.
What seems harder to do...
Hire a poor mans Riley even, who was taken away from East Carolina at the time.
or
Hire Crisobal - who couldn't keep a job as a head coach before - so that he can recruit kids away from big bags AND hire a staff good enough to cover up his deficiencies on both sides of the ball since he doesn't bring anything offensively or defensively X&O wise.
My goal is to see UM have elite talent everywhere. Thats what I saw growing up....not to hate on JJ and Redwine but they arent exactly gping to light up the league. I want dogs and monsters everywhere.....i hate settling for plan D's or E's while everyone else gets house hold names children look up too and dream of being.Only really guy I have a problem with on the staff is banda because corners are a dime a dozen in soflo and rumph is a great coach.

I just am in the camp that its over for UM in this new landscape... but im still here cause im a fan and im hoping for some sort of miracle one day. Realistically I know its overThat's my thought too like I truly wonder if top end kids would come here if we were say top 10 in the nation would they still choose us over bags from bama,clemson,georgia etc.
That's terrible! do they not get ashamed when you guys who accomplished so much spend time around them??Nah. Ain't none of that on this team.
