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
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.

Do you have any clue of Butch's tenure at Miami, cleaning up Erickson's mess, navigating probation just short of the death penalty leading to his Miami team POUNDING Florida (all of his recruits) in the BCS Sugar Bowl in 2001?

You have no clue about college football or its history.
Yes I know of all that and no more college football then what is considered healthy. Yea Davis has done well to a degree the places he has coached but has has real issues and you could say fell just under expectations.
Did you know he almost left UNC after his first year to coach Arkansas. This is an ok hire by FIU but by no means am I worried about Davis.

Panthers lose their QB recruit

QB Brett Sheehan decommits from FIU - Football Recruiting - Southeast Region Blog - ESPN

ALSO, great timing by Pete Garcia, they had a recruit on campus today. Mario gets canned and an hour later the kid shows up…everyone left wondering what to do with him.

How does that even have relevance to this argument?  What are, as you say, his "real issues?"  Incredible eye for talent?  Incredible development of off the radar recruits?  Sought after?  Yeah, sounds like real bad issues to have.

Re: SI Pete Thamel reports Cristobal fired

So…….

What no one has discussed is "where will Cristobal end up"?

Anyone care to take a stab at that one??

I'm thinking a position coach would be the likely next stop - as the head coaching gig did not show ability to be a coordinator.

  • [li]OL coach or recruiting coordinator at Miami maybe
    [/li][li]Not sure of his relationship with Bielema, but a staff position at Arkansas would make a lot of sense for his connections in the SE[/li]
    [li]OL coach at FSU as that staff gets decimated
    [/li][li]Takes a year off[/li]

UNC had tons of acedemic issues with NCAA while he was there.

Cristobal will be snatched up by a bigger conference in no time even if it's not as HC

Recruiting coordinator and _____________ coach at USF would be a good spot for him to land.

Agree 100%

Wow - the guy that helped make FIU relevant. I never thought he was a good Xs and Os guy. He was obviously a great recruiter. Definetly shocked.
