Let me start off by saying personally I feel South Florida coaches sometimes act like pimps when it comes to these kids. Most are good but there are some bad apples. Secondly, it’s my feeling that Mario is a relentless recruiter who plays the tactics and games other very good recruiters play. For instance promising somebody playing time, certain positions, etc. The rumor has it that while Mario was at FIU he made lots of promises he did not keep and This rubs some coaches and players the wrong way. I would never say Mario is a pariah in the south Florida community, he’s very welcome but there are some naysayers out there.
