How long does Mario last in Miami? I know the fans are going to be calling for his head.

So sad to see Mario lose.........Not!

This should be a T shirt.

It seems Mario has a new moniker.

And just like that... miami is staring down missing the playoffs.

Mario isn't going anywhere for a few more seasons. He'll continue to tease them with greatness just enough to stick around.

Talked about it when he was here. He does a great job in the off season that generates hope for the program. In so many ways he's a fantastic off season coach. Just don't let him coach any games.

Honestly, when I'm reading their fan forums, I think they want Mario to take his head with him. They don't know want any part of his coaching decisions to stay around. 😂😂😂

He had a 1st and 10 at his own 48 with 2:29 left. He could have gotten to 4th down at the two-minute-timeout (TMT) and punted afterward. Instead SMU got possession before the TMT and ran a play for 8 yards. It was just bad clock management. Hell, SMU got a sack and a holding penalty on the game tying drive. They tried to give the game to Miami.

Love it. But never forget:

Cristobal lost to ANOTHER unranked team?

Makes me SO SAD....

From Miami to Beavis--just like that.😁

Horrible clock management all the way around.

I don’t think he has that much leeway in the 12-team playoff era. That much talent and 0 for 2 making the playoffs out of the ACC? Guessing he’s gone if they don’t make it next year.

You have to wonder just how long boosters will be willing to buy a QB each year?! They don't seem to be worth the huge cost.

It doesn’t get any easier for them. They’re fresh out of bye weeks and their final two games are in the cold weather. Blacksburg and Pittsburgh will not be hospitable in late November.

To make it sting even more, Duke is ahead of Miami in the ACC standings. Duke's coach just happens to be....ahem.....Manny Diaz. The former Miami coach that MC replaced.

2:26 left, leading 20-17, ball on SMU 49 - pass play

2:22 left, ball on 50 - pass play

IF Miami had run the ball, they would have taken time off the clock.

Miami punts on fourth down.

Following punt, SMU has 2:09 left, 90 yds from scoring.

0:28 left, SMU kicks FG to tie from Miami 21 yd line of scrimmage.

IF Miami had run the ball, SMU would still have used a couple time outs, BUT more time would have elapsed before the SMU timeouts. Maybe SMU has a longer FG attempt after getting possession back?

All teams are buying a quarterback evey year.

Only difference is if it's someone already in your roster or someone from the portal.

Mari-oh-oh, you are out of PO Mulligans, and with a game to play on 11/29 in Pittsburgh. 😁

And perhaps, taking the Domers with him? Hats off to NO. Texas for assuring ND will not have a top 25 game vs Navy next Saturday.

After a nice pay raise, Coach Lashlee Ponies Up!

TRAGIC! The valet says he can't find Carson's intercepted Lambo! 😁

I'm Shocked! Or, should I say, Clocked!

I'd say most aren't.

But everyone is paying.

What you don't realize is that he will soon prove his O line to be really tough and physical and the cream of the college football world...in the 1980s style of play.

Apparently, physicality at the line of scrimmage, also requires some coaching chops to be able to win a physical game.

Give Mari-oh-oh a break. He made my Bye, and now I get to wallow in it 🤪, while thinking of the Canes trip to Pitt on November 29th!

Dear Miami Boosters, please keep throwing Millions of Dollars at Mario, and kids who have never suited up for a college game, and a guy who led the SEC in INTs in 2024.

Don't give up on him. In 2025, your boy Beck is now 2nd in the ACC behind some Sap, with 9-Picks, and he's still in the race to be the ACC's most Prolific Picker. 🤑

About that Car, Son. 🤬

Death, taxes and tanking. Mari at Miami is 4 - 11 after Nov 1, including 1 -3 when ranked in the top 10.

Mario's the Titanic in search of a berg.

Yahoo Sports says it best:

In a town brimming with the illusion of wealth and surgically altered body parts, where it sometimes seems like only the tans are real, Miami has perpetrated yet another scam on the American people.

Pretending to be an elite program isn’t exactly a crime, but goodness gracious are the Hurricanes good at making their fans feel swindled.
