In December 2021, the University of Miami announced the hiring of head football coach Mario Cristobal as they stride towards reinstating a winning culture for the Miami Hurricanes.
Cristobal, who has had previous assistant coaching stints with the Hurricanes, was a graduate assistant under Butch Davis between 1998 and 2000 and a tight ends and offensive line coach under Larry Coker in 2006.
“My family and I are excited to return home to the University of Miami, which has been so instrumental in shaping me as a person, player and coach,” Cristobal said in a statement when he was hired.
