For many reasons, not the least of which is the $60M buyout, firing Mario is not possible and would be idiotic even if it were. So, assuming Radakovich isn't blind and dumb, his only option is to "coach up" his head coach, who has exceptional qualities but is clearly struggling. The path is not easy. The first tough step is getting Mario to recognize that his offensive philosophy is outdated, that it must change, and that he himself can not change it. The second tough step is helping Mario bring in a new, high-IQ, innovative OC. UM should spare no expense with this hire, and give him whatever resources are needed to succeed (a QB position coach, for example). Here's the hard part...DR must insist that Mario provide the new OC with complete autonomy and accountability. That includes play calling, player evaluations, and authority over all offensive position coaches include Mirabal.

In addition, DR and MC must develop a QB acquisition strategy that involves more than one-year rentals. I do not believe the current approach is sustainable, especially with a more complex offense that requires time for players to assimilate and refine. UM needs QBs that develop over more than one year.

Finally, DR should go on a full court press with the ACC on the outrageous officiating. The examples are too many to count, and it has been persistent over several recent years. Totally, unacceptable. UM has power with the ACC and should assert it.

The ball is not in the AD's court, it's in the big money boosters that are funding NIL and investments into the school and the football program. Rad can talk but talk is cheap. Money on the other hand makes things happen.

UM has contacted the ACC about the officials/penalties last Sat. so we’ll see what the response will be.
 
He won’t be able to tell Mario how to coach. Sure he can make recommendations but that will go in one ear and out the other.

Imagine you’re getting advice on how to coach from someone with no experience. Rad can support Mario however he needs it but I’m pretty sure convincing Mario to change his whole outlook on the style of play needs to come from a higher power.

still thinking one of his Columbus HS buddies can get him to see the light
Mario wants so badly to succeed but seems unwilling to change to get the success he desires

not sure ED O is a full time HC, however I would find a spot for him as a DL assistant, LB coach, some on field why ? we need someone on that staff to get the team cranked up, we always look flat ?
