Did Manny Diaz really interview for the FSU DC position?

Advertisement
Sorry if this was already discussed, but a FSU booster friend insists the Manny was on the FSU campus to interview for the D.C.-assistant head coach job before WT hired the Michigan State guy. Please tell me that this is not true.....



Having witnessed decades of racist anti-Hispanic comments from F$U fans at the UM-F$U games, I don't think that anyone from F$U knows the difference between Manny Diaz and Buenos Diaz...

A point of interest to me, what race are Hispanics supposed to be? My wife is Cuban and has never considered herself as anything but white. Actually, her skin is lighter than mine. I’m half Italian which give me a little Mediterranean color to go with my back Bubba white skin. Not saying there are not slurs against Hispanics, or Italians or certainly bubbas from the Bama haters here, just the loose use of race. For clarity, then when did Hispanics get kicked out of the white race?

Where did Cubans come from originally? Spain=European

Lol wat?
 
I doubt that he interviewed at FSU.

But, who really cares if he interviewed? Coaches explore their options. I have no problem with it.

Hispanic isn’t a race, it’s an ethnicity.

Technically, its a cultural identity which dates to the Spanish Empire. So a culture. Latino would be an ethnicity.
You can consider yourself Hispanic regardless if your white, black, red, yellow, pink, purple or green, it's more about your surroundings and upbringing. I.e., if your name is Meriko Seito, cause your parents are from Japan, but you were born in Chile, and only know Chilean culture/Hispanic culture and speak Spanish, most would identify themselves as Hispanic, as opposed to Asian or Japanese.

All these things are messed up, especially in the USA, when you look at their Ethnic and Race Identification, cause some people could probably check out 2 or 3 (i.e., Blacks are only considered from Africa).

Culture and ethnic are a blurry line.
 
I personally would never turn down an interview but in this case I'm calling BS. Manny has been up front with stating he would be back. It's a sideway move and I think he's happy in Miami

FSU booster friend = hillbilly buddy in a wifebeater that bought a ticket to an FSU game once

CEO of major regional power company, golden chief, tennis partner.............yea, but what he said.

Still wears a wifebeater...and Golden Chief is like saying he’s a Golden Cane, which doesn’t add a whole lot.

Fact is, your original claim is pure bullshīt. Somebody would have seen Manny and this would have leaked.

So your “big time” tennis partner is having one over on you, or is clueless and doesn’t know what he’s talking about, or you kind of half exaggerated half made up the whole thing, ie, you heard it from some FSU dweeb, but not the CEO of a regional power company. Because it’s hard to believe that someone like the CEO of a power company would have a close friend that would run off to a public message board and reveal the content of a private conversation.

Exactly. Funny how all these same "big time" FSU hilljacks...errr....boosters also had Dugans in Tallahassee for about 3 weeks meeting multiple times per day with Tagfart in between looking a houses. Same bastions of truth that had Ol' Deion joining their staph too.

Like I said in another thread, these FSU dolts try so hard to match the SEC level of cultist delusion yet amazingly are too stupid to even pull that off properly.
 
They contacted him. The feeling/interest wasn't mutual. Which in F$U fan world, means his wife didn't want to move, but he was all-in.
 
Contacting him, probably through his agent btw, if it even happened, is not the same as being on campus and interviewing.

Also, how do you know they contacted him?

Here’s another reason it’s bullshīt, if there was an interview, it would NEVER be on campus.

They’d meet in a hotel suite somewhere, or private home, or anywhere but campus.
 
Wrong Manny.

Exactly. Didn't it even turn out that the Dugans/Tagfart meeting (aka Operation Donk Gonna Get A Raise) was in Tampa?

You hope it's not true? Are you kidding me? We should all hope to be so lucky. Willie and Manny @ FSU would've been a Cane fans' dream scenario for the FSU coaching staff.

The sooner this guy can find another job, the better off Miami and this defense will be.

The guy is a journeyman DC that's been subpar to mediocre his entire career.

Spoken like a true internet super-BS artist. If you actually read my post, you will see-assuming you can comprehend-that I was looking to confirm that it was NOT true. So "my claim" actually was that a connected guy told me that MD actually was on campus which I found hard to believe. But, MD is an FSU alum and so it could be possible that WT had interest. I had hoped he was confused and was really talking about Dugans.

Now whether or not my friend is a well-known booster-I don't care if you think he is, because he is.
 
It's cute that most FSU fans still think they can get any recruit or any coach to go there. Give them a couple years with Faqfart, and they'll start slipping into the darkness that we inhabited for so many years recently. They'll go from "Dugans is leaving UM to come to FSU" and "Manny is ours if we want him" to "We got Willie'd again."
 
So you think your super connected friend was lying to you and you’re trying to confirm on a message board? I mean, is that what you’re trying to say?

But also your super connected booster friend doesn’t know the difference between Manny and Dugans? As well as Dugans was never reported to have traveled to Trailernasty as far as I know?

The whole thing, quite honestly, sounds like you’re getting catfished or you’re kinda exaggerating just a little bit. I mean none of this adds up.

Not trying to be a prick, but I’m a very skeptical person when it comes to this “my high placed friend” stuff.
