The efforts these people work overtime to discredit Mario really is something.
Great, Miami isn't where we want it to be year two and Cristobal has his flaws.... but these fools act like he didn't hand Lanning a 35-12 program over a four-year stretch where he won the Pac-12 twice, won a Rose Bowl, had two double-digit win seasons and year rolled into Columbus year four to knock off #3 Ohio State on the road.
Newsflash numbnutz, you think Bo Nix and these others are going to Oregon if Mario hadn't built a program, a culture and a powerhouse Pac-12 program there?
The wanted to go play for a WINNING PROGRAM not for Georgia's unknown defensive coordinator who had never been a head coach before, geniuses.
Lanning literally took the baton and ran with it—but y'll sound like total bozos trying to discredit the program he was handed, as if that didn't have any hand in what he was able to build on.
Conversely, Mario got a team that was 21-15 under little beta man child Manny—a few years removed from a home loss against FIU where he let his hungover, curfew-missing quarterback get the start—as he as actively scared guys were going to leave the program if they didn't run the asylum (... an FIU team that went 1-18 over their next 19 games after upsetting the Canes.)
Even his little paper 8-3 run in 2020 where D'Eriq King's legs saved him—exposed massively in 42-17 loss at Clemson and 62-26 at home to North Carolina. Total fraud.
Cristobal left a winner behind in Oregon—while left Lanning something to sell recruits—while inheriting a stage-four cancer program in Miami; one that was 28-24 overall after Richt's 10-0 start in 2017 (which he wrapped up 7-9 before quitting and Diaz taking over.)
