**Yesterday, a tweet emerged saying Butch Davis was at the Biltmore having drinks with Jackson Health CEO Carlos Migoya. It is unsure what role Migoya has in the coaching search, but a source tells me that Migoya had lunch with Mario Cristobal today at Christy’s in the Gables. It is entirely possible that Migoya is serving as some sort of middleman in the process. Cristobal was in Miami today recruiting.

**Also of note, I found this article in the Miami Herald, where Migoya is endorsing Julio Frenk as Miami President. - Migoya: Welcome, Dr. Frenk | Miami Herald
**Sources close to Cristobal indicate that he already has an idea of who he would include on his staff. James Coley would be retained most likely. Bama DB Coach Mel Tucker would be a frontrunner to become defensive coordinator. Marshall OL coach Alex Mirabal would replace Kehoe.
**Do not count out Cristobal on being part of Rob Chudzinski’s staff if Chud is the guy. Mario’s brother, Luis, was Chud’s roommate at Miami and the families are close.
**I can also confirm the reports that Charlie Strong does have interest in this job. Sources close to his agent Jimmy Sexton say that Strong may not be all that happy in Texas. Interestingly enough, Dennis Dodd wrote last week that power agent Jimmy Sexton would love to get one of his clients in this race. Scroll to the section on Mark Stoops –

An anti CRISTOBAL, Chud, and Schiano banner needs to fly at homecoming. How this hasn't been set up yet blows my mind.
This is going to be a disaster
Mario banner needs to happen. Reference his record and the fact we was fired from ****ing FIU.
Fire Blake James too
So, the Cristobal apologists stated that Cristobal would bring in a legit staff and would sweep up recruiting. Based on what Pete's saying, he would retain an offensive coordinator in his 3rd year with the school who has one of the best QB's in the nation, yet his team is near dead last in 3rd down efficiency.
And Tucker as DC....jesus christ. I remember the Bears used to trot out some stout defenses, until Tucker came out and they were just bad. How do you go from NFL defensive coordinator to college DB coach? Because you're bad at your job.
I stand by the fact that Cristobal of all the coaches that are rumored to be in this gig would be a complete disaster of a hire.
27 - 47 with 3 wins against teams with winning records in a terrible conference and with better athletes than most of the teams he was facing. Did we learn nothing from the Golden experiment? Fly the **** banner.Cristobal would stack talent upon talent and would need to hire a good staff but anyone comparing him to Al is so off. Al's problem at Miami was style and Mario would play Miami football.
Also u guys talk about 27-47 at FIU what do you think Saban would do at FIU. He would be better obviously but I doubt by much
Jimmy was 26-24 at OSU before Miami and butch head coaching record was 0-0
Coley and Christobal will yield us top 5-10 recruiting classes guaranteed every year but we will never win a MNC and we might luck into an ACC title or two but thats it.
I am interested to see what Coley can do seeing that some people think he was being handcuffed by Golden. Well..heres his chance to show us what he really has. Because im sure LScott told him to go for the juggler and dont hold back. You are auditioning for future jobs. (or the current one depending if these rumors are true) So I am willing to give him this 5 game trial period to see what he can do.
Dont know much about Mel Tucker besides whats been said on here but ALA secondary hasnt been THAT bad. Minkah Fitzpatrick has been stud and Eddie Jackson has been **** good as well. So he is doing something right. Now does that mean I want him running my defense?
Lets just hope this is all rumor for now. I like the fact that Butch is lurking around though and letting it be known that he wants the job and if Mario wants to be on HIS staff he will welcome him with open arms.
