Mario Cristobal is the right man for the Miami Hurricanes football program

Mario Cristobal has officially been announced as the head football coach of the Miami Hurricanes. Cristobal, the former Oregon Ducks head coach, comes to Miami to replace former head coach Manny Diaz. Cristobal posted a 35-13 record (23-9 in the Pac-12) as the head coach of the Ducks, including four straight bowl appearances.

Cristobal is a Miami native, a national recruiter, and a tireless worker. Cristobal was spotted at a Miami Central High School practice, still in his suit from his introductory press conference. On day one Cristobal was making in-home visits, and out scouting high school practices.
