*Update Eddie Nunez Emerges as Strong Candidate for Miami AD Job

[Negro-Wan Kanobi]

I take back what I said about Nunez.

I'd take him over Gino.

Also hiring Nunez for his supposed expertise with Miami’s culture is flawed because he has no connection or previous experience with UM… growing up in Miami and attending Miami-Dade Community College doesn’t make him an expert on UM’s culture.

WTF is Miami’s culture anyways? Lmao. It’s a culture of mediocrity for the past two decades is what it is. Bring me a fuqqin winner, point blank, who has successful power 5 experience being an AD.

This Miami culture bull**** doesn’t make sense and no one fuqqin cares about it.

He is of Spanish decent & therefore is qualified to work at UM, if he went to Columbus HS he checks every box.

What to make of this?

hard to believe a search firm got paid to come up with this

I had multiple interviews and was hired and working for three months before I met a single person from my company face to face. MS Teams, Zoom.

What to make of this?

Bidding war!

 

[AUcane]

The part where they speak Spanish

I still wish they'd interview Mack Rhoades, dude has done great with his hires and Is a helluva fundraiser -- even if we had to pay him well, from his past stops it seems like he'd raise a boatload of money.

The only victory he can ever claim was the Battle at Golden Corral.
Last time he saw his wang, we were running the Veer offense.

Why would Rhoades leave his current job for this one?

Can't wait for the U to be top in the ACC women's cross country! /sarcasm

Anyone's resume can be spruced up to sound good. Same thing as cherry picking stats. The AD hire being him is....underwhelming. I'm not a #JurichOrBust person, but that is the type of hire they needed to make and they went with the "he's a miami guy" hire instead. (Still applies if it is indeed Toretta)

He also spent 14 years working up through LSU's athletic department and was deputy ad there before UNM.

I'd prefer him no questions asked to most names thrown out there other than Jurich.

 

[Notsince1985]

Am I the only one that didn't know Manny doesn't speak Spanish?

 

[ajone228]

Latest Manny Navarro article has him as the lead candidate for the AD job.

By the way, the reason New Mexico got worse the last few years is they had to cut several sports and men’s sports budget due to a Title IX violation before he got there.
