SI Pete Thamel reports Cristobal fired
Could it be that Butch and FIU had a preliminary agreement for him to become coach but they had to do it within a certain time frame? So rather than wait and see if Mario leaves and then miss out on Davis, they figure we fire him, he's free to interview anywhere he wants and accept any job he wants and FIU didn't miss out on it's time frame to hire a big name coach who's familiar with the Miami area and also has ties to UM
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

SportsIllustrated.com reporting that BUTCH DAVIS is the top candidate to replace him.
If that's the move they make, I wouldn't call this a bad decision.
Did not t do that great at NM this year, yes 4 wins but over Southern (FCS) and bad N.M. St., Hawaii and Tx. St (1st year FBS).
And as he ws the HC at UM, is not FIU a HUGE step beteath that level in S. Fl. football?

yea but it take a good coach to turn talent into wins Urban won with Zooks guys. Zook could not do it neither could butch Davis anywhere he has been. Please FIU take Davis and you will have have NCAA sanctions in no time.Jab979 said
I wouldn't call Davis' tenure at Miami a failure. He had 1 bad season and most of his recruits were on the 2001 national championship team that Coker won
