Mario Cristobal has a deadline of midday Monday to accept the UM job, sources tell @SInow. If he declines, Manny Diaz will be retained, as @flasportsbuzz reported.
Final decision on AD – where Dan Radakovich is top candidate – will be made after the coach situation is resolved.

Cristobal just watch his Ducks get blasted again in the Pac 12 Championship Game against Utah, 38-10, giving the Ducks their third loss of the season.
Rumors have been constant over the weekend that the Miami Hurricanes are about to make Cristobal their new head coach, the only problem with that is they haven’t fired their current head coach Manny Diaz.
The situation has left both Cristobal and Diaz in limbo. Cristobal has not said either way if he plans to take the job and according to the same report, if he doesn’t, the Hurricanes plan to just retain Diaz for another year.
Strange happenings in South Florida indeed.
