Miami actively trying to hire Mario? Edit: MC is Miami's HC

[thatbpguy]

MC has signed with Miami per a friend of a friend who is a Miami alumni. FWIW.

Sounds ironclad.

Wow that’s weird! A friend of my mom’s neighbor’s son’s friend said he heard from a friend Cristabol is locked into Oregon!

Even though this meeting was previously scheduled, it seems the team may find out soon about his intentions.

(Speculation)
That right there tells me he's gone. He wouldn't bother to drag the entire team and staff in on a Sunday night to tell them he isn't going anywhere. He could have waited till regular team meetings this week. That tells me he is trying to beat ESPN and the media from dropping it before they hear it from him.

As green yellow posted the team meeting was already scheduled, Mario is not dragging anyone in. He could also be telling his team he is staying so let get to work on Oklahoma

Hoping that this is the case!

They have a team meeting and dinner every Sunday. Does not seem unusual.

I thought it was a tight window for 2 pm zoom call and a meeting in Eugene at 4:30

One thing we do know for sure is the media knows just what we know….rumors and speculation

This all reminds me of when Chip first waffled back and forth between taking the Bucs gig and was waffling back and forth. Ducks have a home basketball game tonight. Remember when Chip ended up backing out and staying at Oregon and everyone went crazy when he was at the basketball game that night? If I recall, he bailed for the Eagles gig within the next 2 days. So, just need Cristobal to sure up at the ASU game tonight, commit to the program, then end up rethinking it and deciding to head to Miami later this week. What a wild saga. If anything though, it proves how difficult of a decision this is for him. He has every reason to jump at this opportunity to head to his alma mater and dream job, but is really having a difficult job abandoning what he started art Oregon.

I see the whole "grew up in Miami, played at Miami" angle, but lets face it. Miami is FAR from a dream job if you take out the fact Miami is flipping an awesome place to live. It's basically Hawaii in the states. However, with that being said, the entire program is a joke. It's in shambles. Miami hasn't been relevant since Michael Irvin and Ray Lewis were on the field. The facilities suck, your roster sucks, you don't even have a flipping stadium! Ohh yea, and by the way, you're recruiting against, Florida, Florida State and the entire SEC. HAVE FUN!!!

So no, it's far from a dream job. He is 2 years from getting Oregon into the playoffs. If he starts over at Miami, it will be 5 years before we hear his name again on ESPN. But yea, the weather is great?

I will never understand why some people like you feel it necessary to discourage people from posting what they are hearing through the grapevine. I feel like he put in all the necessary qualifiers, so it isn't like he was representing it as 'ironclad'.

If there's anyone in the know it's Feldman since he's close to the Miami program and supposedly has several sources near Cristobal.

Obviously it has its warts and isn’t a top job for most. However it is “his” dream job. The Miami players from those 90s squads have a lot of pride for that program, and this is his opportunity to bring them back to prominence. You don’t think he’s getting assurances as part of these negotiations that those things will get taken care of? Yes, it’ll take a while to build that out. If anything, those are probably the primary reason he hasn’t already jumped on it.

They better be fully guaranteeing every dollar of whatever contract he gets, like what Jimbo got, otherwise he's gonna get fired in a few years and likely not getting another big time HC job.
