He will be the WR Coach, Asst. HC and recruiting coordinator.

He'd be a good hire for FIU if that job ever opens up.

Wow, wasn't he in that same position with Miami before he went to FIU?

Still can't believe FIU fired Cristobal after the success he had, even if he didn't meet the expectations of the 2012 season.

FIU has given themselves a real kick in the groin.

as my signature would suggest, I approve of this hire.

How the heck can someone like both FSU and Miami? That is beyond horrible. Big rivals. Gotta pick one.

I love both teams, but when it comes down to the big rivalry game, I always choose Miami. I despise the Gators, though.

Actually he's been hired as the tight ends coach:

I hate it for Panther fans, their AD really screwed the pooch when they fired Super Mario. I'd love to have him come up to Troy after Larry retires.

Mario screwed himself according to people that know him and the FIU AD.

...By working for a psychopath. Funny how Al Golden had no issues hiring him.

They'll play hell finding a coach as good as Cristobal. Don't know who "the people" are, but this bonehead move will come back to bite them.

That's blasphemy. Nobody who likes the Noles should support Miami in anything. Must be a casual fan to even consider this to be an option. My family is split between FSU and UF and any of them would vomit if someone tried to cheer for both teams.

I became a Miami fan in 1979 in Panama. I learned to hate FSU very quickly

Oh puh-lease. It makes no sense to hate a school so much to root against them all the time. In fact it's illogical, you want your opponent/rival to be the best they can be when you beat them. I root for WKU whenever they don't play MT, and does that make me some type of weirdo hybrid fan who is insane? No... I don't think so, it makes me a fan of the sport, NOT a fan of being Mr. Extremist Supporter!

Sure I hate FSU and WKU but that doesn't mean I don't like to see the competition be good.

He isn't rooting for a rival to help his team look better. He said he loves both teams and is a fan of both. Read the damn post.

It isn't illogical at all to root against a rival all the time. In fact it is normal. But I hate Florida a lot more than Miami. That is the main rivalry.

I said I like both teams until they play each other. Then my allegiance is with Miami, period.
