Oh I'm not saying they didn't want to win or try as hard as they could with the kids they were playing.
But the main goal of the game was to get Cam the record and to get Emory playing time/an audition. Those were the main goals. The next goal was to win the game, while accomplishing the goals above.
So I guess "didn't care" is probably wrong....I'll change it to "didn't care about the result as much as they did getting their QBs the playing time they did".
And honestly, it worked out. If we win that game, woo-hoo, we're Pop Tart champs, but not one single kid we potentially miss on in this 2026 class would have come had Mario been showered with Pop Tarts. So who cares? But since Emory completely imploded, it made the portal decision an easy one, and we got Carson Beck, who could (should?) lead us to Charlotte.
What's wrong with it?
For those of us that don't do twitter, can you summarize?
He made his account private. You can’t look at his tweets anymore. Obviously getting a lot of backlash

You could go harder
. Lol
Manny Diaz at least “as the worst head coach to ever walk through those doors” identified evaluate developed a high school prospect and Rousseau into a first round pick
Outside of the position group that makes coaches lose their legs and arms I haven’t seen Mario do that yet here at Miami while riding Manny‘s players often into the sunset
You could go harder
Again I fully understand the CMC criticism and apparent limitations
But realize that if riding off into the sunset means that in year 3 of CMC tenure there wasn't one Diaz defensive recruit worth a **** on the field. Sure there were some Diaz guys on offense, your point is taken….But "riding Diaz players off into the sunset" is a bit extreme.
Best players on last years team (in order, or at least semi-order)
Ward
Restrepo- Diaz
Martinez
Arroyo- Diaz
Rivers- Diaz
Mauigao-
Barrow-
Bain
Frederique
Horton- Diaz
Am I missing anyone? The two RB are nice backs, George, Horton, Bissainthe, Mesidor, Cooper…I guess those are would be the next 7, 3 of them Diaz guys.
The point being for year 3, that looks about right or maybe slightly in favor of the new coach…But not far off from what you'd expect. Definitely not "riding Diaz players off into the sunset"

The receivers lol
I just want to get to a point where we aren't comparing Mario to Manny. The fact that after 3 years their is very little separation should be annoying to everyone. This is like "he is a better QB than Emory."
I'm just glad that if this doesn't work out we wont get 10 "what about MArio CristoBal" threads this time around.
Under this regime, only the offensive line gets developed, Bains awesome first season was just based off of raw talent until the CORCHin staph took over his sophomore season
And as far as Ward goes I highly doubt they did any developing of his already skill set, they just provided him a better OLine
Come on mane, I know y’all boys ain’t crashing out already at least wait til the season start
But the offseason is the high point of the year mydude
you don’t become an off-season dynasty by remaining quiet
