How Mario Cristobal's return transformed Miami football into a spender 'literally overnight'

CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Miami football coach Mario Cristobal looks around the indoor practice facility and starts talking with an eager determination, pointing out all the different areas that are either going to be changed, remodeled or built.

Details rarely go unnoticed. As Cristobal talks about his vision for the future, he sees the portable flooring placed on the turf for a dinner later that night for the 175 former players returning to campus.

Cristobal has already told administrators they should purchase the flooring instead of renting every time there is an event to save costs in the long run.
