Miami Hurricanes' Mario Cristobal has a very different reaction from Dan Lanning's viral video after securing pledge from five-star OT Jackson Cantwell

Cristobal's elated reaction to landing the Miami Hurricanes' biggest recruit perhaps ever was very different than one that has drawn a lot of attention lately from Cristobal's former stop.  Oregon head coach Dan Lanning drew a lot of backlash and ridicule on social media after a video went viral with him jumping into a swimming pool with 2026 5-star edge Richard Wesley to announce the latter's commitment to the Ducks. 

Personally, I don't have a problem with either celebration.  Lanning was having fun and showing a side of him that some recruits and players will watch and perhaps connect with on a personal level. 

But Cristobal's reaction speaks volumes without any bells or whistles.  It captures the thrill of the payoff from over a year of continuous work trying to land one of the most impactful players in the country.  It shows these men are people with raw emotions the same as the rest of us.  And for someone like Cristobal, who's normally a very reserved individual when it comes to showing his emotions - particularly positive or happy ones - that reaction indeed reflects strongly how much wins - on and off the field - mean to him.
