He took an already thriving program to heights it had already seen multiple times in the 2 decades before he took over. His claim to fame was he recruited better than anyone else had in their history. When he left Lanning immediately recruited and built a better roster than Mario ever had.
I get having these conversations when he first got here. It mattered then.
To me its the conference slate that truly matters. Beating ND & Ufag is always great but what we get negative recruited against the most are not winning the ACC and our tendency to faceplant in the month of November. Fixing that will do way more for us than any W vs a rival on primetime.
Of course..and can see Mario having his team ready and beating both. I can also see Mario crapping the bed at least twice against teams he has no business losing to…players unprepared, uninspired. he’s proven this repeatedly…
ALL OF EM ITS UNACCEPTABLE YOU HEAR ME!?!?
Sensible posts like this are rare to see on CIS
There’s things about Mario I like and things I don’t like
Exactly we're in a softer conference but still schedule big boy opponent each year
its also his entire roster and on his third DC and second OC. dude has gotten away with murder at this point
thats gonna go away soon. everyone is going to more conference games which will end the home and homes with the SEC and B10.
Very true and valid as well.
You know how every year some demented ******* posts that question:
Eh. It’s hard cause winning the conference but getting our butts kicked at home by ND and UF and people will just say the ACC sucks
the bust rate has been al golden levels high tbh.
It’s just being disingenuous bringing up Oregon or Manny Diaz at this point he’s been here long enough
