It’s cliche to play gotchas/I-told-you-so,

The reality is this: I Said once Cristobal was hired that expecting a “return” of the true U isn’t likely a possibility.

Not only does he have no history of being a HC capable of producing titles, he had a penchant for doing the LEAST with the MOST.

That’s who Miami currently is and has been. Cristobal was never answer to restore the U. At best, he’d be a nice bridge similar to what he did at Oregon FOR Dan to then ELEVATE.

His key points of sale are recruiting and OL production. In modern NIL, results matter most. Recruiting is only a tool to get you to a destination. More and more, it’s losing value and the ability to be creative and progress roster turnover is the key ingredient to LONG TERM SUCCESS.

Suntan U vibes by thinking he had the penchant to do what he never has done. His teams are lethargic even with extra reason/time to prep, and his UNIT has been the main culprit of the two losses with season with back breaking penalties and a inability to get room in the run game.

Zebras don’t change their stripes. Miami with Cristobal is different than Miami from 2005-pre-Mario:

Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

A thorough cleanse would help, but no major goals of success will be reached with Mario.

Mario was the right hire. The program is clearly in better shape than it was when he arrived. Anyone can’t admit that is just an idiot. That said, we now have confirmation of the ceiling with him. I was optimistic this year but you can’t argue with the results. Another year of struggling to beat teams that do not have the talent we have. Another year with late season losses. And the most damming, another season when the team gets worse as the season goes on.

The program is now a solid 9 win give or take team yearly, and that’s a big improvement from hoping to make a bowl, but we all need to admit that’s all it’s gonna be with Mario here.

That’s fine. If that’s the vision then we as fans are going to have to accept it I guess. It would go against my very nature to storm the field if we beat a UVA or a Duke at home but **** I may be ready. Life has no shortage of misery so we need to condition ourselves to celebrate the small things and embrace mediocrity. State champs baby!! Let’s go!!!

Perception is reality.

Results based world says we aren’t in any better shape now than 2005-his arrival.
