I think Cristobalz bounces if he gets the right deal and promises of support, I just don’t know if Miami has the money. $50 million for the two buyouts and for tits to get a six year/$7 mil a year contract, which is a $1-2 mil raise, made slightly better by no income tax. From the Miami Herald:
Both trustees said Oregon coach and former UM player Mario Cristobal would be the obvious target but doubt UM could afford him.
“We don’t have that kind of money,” one trustee said. A UM trustee detailed that the athletic department’s finances pale in comparison to Texas A&M and Florida: Why can Texas A&M afford to pay Jimbo Fisher more than $9 million annually and UM can’t pay coaches more than $4 million to $5 million? “Our revenue from sports is $90 million to $100 million a year; at Texas A&M, it’s $175 million, Florida is close to that,” the trustee said.
Miami might not be it
Mario also may be quite happy to get a big raise and stay

Its interesting how big a jump the market took
Who would have thought Mel Tucker would change college football forever.

This is true. And while I can't dispute any of it, I'll say this: there are some large donors sitting there waiting for Miami to get this right who've promised to pay for it if they do. You also have a huge wave of pressure from ex-players and other stakeholders who've met and written up a manifesto and taken it to the Miami brass and said, "you've all fucked this up long enough."
Why else do you think a President who has been quoted by a Trustee as having told the ousted AD "you're on your own with this sports stuff" just fired that same AD during the middle of a mild recovery of the season (5-1 to close)? There's no question Frenk or Frank or whatever doesn't give a shit, but everybody else does so now he has to or he can be shown the door. There are some trustees who don't care; but most do. Miami football is a pillar of the greater Miami culture. It matters.
The biggest issue is the stadium. But people forget that the Orange Bowl was itself always viewed as a liability, even when they were winning. As was attendance. Miami has always been a night time, big game place. They don't show up in the afternoon for Tulsa or Kentucky. They show up at night for Notre Dame or Oklahoma. During the day for FSU. That is what it is, and has never mattered. The stadium was a rust bucket. Didn't matter. They had shitty facilities, but their program has been (poorly) copied by other programs, including USC, in having star alumni on the sideline and skipping their NFL voluntaries to come work out together at said shitty facilities. And that's because they all love the program and each other and all that shit is what mattered.
I want Saggy Tits to stay in Eugene. If Deboner is going to do this thing, he can do it in a conference with Saggy Tits and Riley. No gimmies. Fucking giddyup.

It will be awesome if Mario Cristoballin loses to Utah twice in a row
