Confirmed Zo gone to NE

[Hoyacane1620]

From Bruce Feldman article:

On the job, Highsmith was the main guy for the Canes when it came to evaluating prospects. Inside the program, according to UM sources, he was seen as a big asset because he had such a keen, trained eye. Coaches and personnel staffers leaned on him. Everything filtered up to Highsmith, but ultimately Cristobal was the final decision-maker on that front which is different than the NFL world. —

Rats fleeing a sinking ship. He knows Mario ain’t it.

I will apply for the position. UM can pay me a boatload of money to give my opinion to Mario and Mario to completely ignore it.

 

[Hold My Beer]

Good points, but I really think there is no space for GMs or big personnel figures in college football where the HCs are running the ship from A to Z.

So it's a promotion in my books.

Yeah, College Football is much less of a collaborative process.

Other than a Belichik or Tomlin or probably Andy Reid, the HFC ain't gonna have the final word on every administrative or personnel move

 

[TriStarCane]

Mario runs this. Everything depends on him. Idc what Cane legend they bring in next to be the token alum. Make no mistake

Zo always had me feeling as if there some was competence at the higher end of admin tree, breathing some optimism for our canes future, though i had no clue wtf his role was lol

 

[Hold My Beer]

He’s not an old guy, and at his age, for someone that is career minded, where was he going to go? What was his path to promotion at Miami? Athletic Director?

Kissing the asses of big-money boosters, listening to coaches in non-revenue sports ***** about facilities and standing in the rain with 20 other people at a soccer match sounds like a blast

Is Elliot Wolf related to former Pack GM Ron Wolf?

Mario might as well rename this position to “ Yes Man Manager”

Definitely have to be a "yes man" to work for Mario, it appears.

 

[JZCane0825]

Manny wanted Zo in the same capacity but that never was going to happen.

My take is Mario convinced Zo to come back as a favor to him but it was never going to be for an extended period of time

 

[bornagaincane]

Butch is an excellent replacement

 

[The canesman]

The last thing Miami needs is another advisor.

 

[ghost2]

I wonder who will replace him.

McCormick
