Miami Staff Tracker (2021-22)
Manny Diaz, who wrapped up a 7-5 fall season at Miami, went from visiting the homes of recruits, to hearing rumors of Miami trying to hire Oregon's Mario Cristobal with a monster contract, to out of a job in less than a 24 hour period following conference championship weekend.
On December 6th, Miami announced that they were parting ways with Diaz after four seasons and a 21-15 record, and hours later announced the hire of Oregon's Mario Cristobal, a south Florida native and former Hurricane player and assistant coach as their new leader.
Here, on the Miami Staff Tracker page, we lay out the new staff and also provide some perspective by noting who coached the position on the previous staff.
