Another Oregon based Media Take on Christobal

[g8rh8rMD]

Stink??? I love the smell of gasoline..


Don’t judge

Me too. Smells like...

 

[caneworld]

So basically Oregons hopes are pinned on "he won't leave what he built over the last four years." Seems to me that is an excellent reason that he can walk away without guilt. Took a program in shambles and made it into a conference title contender, he is leaving it in good hands for the next guy.

As for he wouldn't want to participate in another rebuild? This is where dummies who only look at the W/L record don't realize that a halfway competent coach would have won 10+ games with this roster. At the very least, UVA and FSU are wins, UM plays NC St in the conference championship (who we already beat) and if we win the bowl, that's at minimum, an 11 win season without breaking a sweat. And then he gets a QB who has had the best start of a career of any ACC QB in 15 years. UM is not a rebuild.

He will be leaving it in the hands of Kiffin... the irony

 

[m-vac]

Why he may want to start at the base of the mountain again is b/c QB play. Can't navigate to & in the playoff with strong QB play. Oregon lacks at that position. He's done a good job recruiting outside of that.

This U team has the talent to play & win in the playoff, but just not the depth. If Mario some variation of what he did at Oregon, it aligns well. He recruited well the the PNW, even though he does have NIKE, but with the talent pool here, it will be a different story, on top of him knowing the west coast pretty well now.

** Without strong QB play

 

[Canes2082]

People want to dismiss Miami as starting from the ground up but this team has talent and young talent….

TVD starts the year and you get a good defensive coordinator in here and this team goes 11-1… yeah I said it they could have went 11-1 in the ACC this year. That would have you easily in the ACC championship, NY6 bowl game and possibly a shot at the CFB…. That’s the kinda year we just ****ed away

 

[hotshot]

"Unless I’m reading it all wrong I can’t see Cristobal doing an about-face and descending to the bottom of that mountain so he can start the task over -- even at Miami."

So, just speculation? Got it.

And "bottom of the mountain"... As if there's this HUUUGE gap between Oregon and Miami right now.

I'd say the gap right now is definitely big. HUUUUGE may be another story.

 

[El Huracan]

I stopped here: " Instead, I think Cristobal will maniacally focus on beating Utah and ushering the Ducks to another Rose Bowl." Riiiiiiiiiiight....

 

[jbeadle2]

You know one of the reasons I love UM and the city of Miami is because we never deny it’s a ****show in many ways but it’s our **** show and unless you’ve lived down here or from here people will never understand why we take so much pride in that. Mario might tell us to f***off but knows better than anyone what this city will be like if he brings us back. National media is gonna hate us and I’m here for it all **** day

 

[PIPO]

[JTKoval]

“I think Cristobal will maniacally focus on beating Utah and ushering the Ducks to another Rose Bowl.” Dumb. Must be regretting that statement.

 

[GoDucks]

we have more talent than oregon, only difference in us being " at the bottom of the mountain" is coaching.

take their coach and give it a year and oregon will see where miami really stands

If Chip Kelly had Marios recruiting chops the Ducks would be undefeated for the last 4 years...then again if Mario were as good a coach as he is a recruiter there would have been the same outcome. To say that Miami has better talent than Oregon is to deny where they stood in relation to Miami in the last 3 recruiting cycles including the 2022 class where Oregon is in the Top 10 and Miami doesn't even appear in the Top 50. Pray hard that Mario doesn't show up with the same Karma that surrounded the last coach from Florida who jumped ship and and showed his true colors when he left Oregon ...Willie Taggert who is probably coaching some high school team somewhere now.

We aren't worried out here on the west coast because Marios attempt to game PK ****ed him off and he is opening his checkbook to bring in someone who can recruit and ore importantly coach. Look through Oregon's few losses these past few years and what you will find is a litany of poor coaching decisions that cost Oregon the win. Like Oregon's domination of Auburn where Mario found a way to lose the game...or how about 2 losses to Stanford that were 100% due to poor clock management and poor coaching... all 3 of those games were in the bucket up until the last 5 seconds.

If you think everyone ou here loves Cristobal then consider some of these quotes from the college football press after Mario lost the Ducks another game.

--"The bottom line is, Cristobal and his staff are not sufficiently coaching up their players. That won’t change with a new scheme, and it won’t change with a new quarterback.

Until Cristobal does a better job of developing the players on his roster, College Football Playoff appearances and National Championship aspirations will be pipe dreams. The Ducks will continue to get tested by — and every now and again lose to — teams that get the most out of their rosters despite being overmatched on paper.

The Ducks’ loss at Stanford wasn’t shocking because Oregon’s “elite roster” has looked anything but for much of the year. Unless that changes, Oregon fans can kiss the College Football Playoff goodbye."

-- “But the primary culprit in the aftermath of Oregon giving away a 21-6 second-half lead was Cristobal himself, as those nine seconds never should have been on the clock. Cristobal the game manager is undercutting the progress of Cristobal the program builder, and Saturday night should be the cruel lesson that prompts immediate change in how Oregon handles game management.”

--"Game management has not been a strength of the Ducks under Cristobal and there were several questionable things Oregon did that helped Stanford in its comeback."

--"ARLINGTON, Texas — Mario Cristobal’s game management is once again under scrutiny after a loss in which Oregon surrendered a sizable lead to a team it was dominating for a significant portion of the game.

"When he does well, like landing the best recruit in Nebraska as he did yesterday–I say so. But when he loses another game to an inferior foe as he did in 2018, 2019, 2020 and now in 2021–he deserves some grief. Yet what we see on the field is not matching the recruiting or even the full potential of the players, especially on offense. This is an especially difficult time for a devoted Duck fan, because our hopes and dreams for this team are obviously not going to happen"

The short version is that Mario is a great recruiter who just lost a tremendous amount of credibility with student athletes everywhere by jumping ship in a completely unnecessarily classless way. What Mario isn't is a great football coach ...and he never will be. Lets hope that he does better than the last Super Coach one of the Florida teams convinced to leave Oregon did ...I think Willie went 7-5 in his first year then followed it up with a sizzling 5-7. This decision will send your program backwards just like it did Marios coaching resume.

it was a good post up until this. the players apparently understand life a little better than you do. most players respect that a coach makes "business" and life decisions and the there is no great time for these things to happen.

Mario loses credibility, but Kelly, Riley, and other coaches don't? How exactly did Mario do Oregon dirty anyway? He made a decision to come home. He kept the distraction to a minimum as much as he could control. In my opinion, you're fanbase is hurt and just sour grapes. He chose to come home to his alma mater. He didn't choose to go to USC, LSU, or OU which you would have a gripe.

Have to disagree with this it will take time. We never recruited (regardless of rankings) at a high level. Mario ain't even trying to talk to three stars.....and he even knows and said be patient. We need star caliber players. Can we sneak in? Yes ....Cane we have a bad year? Yes as well

Just let the man bring in the talent. We ****ed this year away cause of prior classes and the recruiting Manny did. He ignored OL DL Linebacker CB etc....in year three those demons came and bit him in the ***.

FYI... Mario has been wanting to come home to Miami for a while now, he wasn't 100% there... this is a fact.
If you and those others really feel that Mario is an inferior HC then celebrate that he left, don't waist our time with sour-grapes opinions.
The U has the best chance now to elevate the program exponentially, many here feel this way because we finally are gutting the program from top to bottom.
Hope you get a coach that makes you very happy... Merry Christmas.

There's SO MUCH hurt in the first and last paragraphs. There's a bunch of reasons to criticize Cristobal as a coach, but this writer was just salty
