Top 5 offensive coordinator candidates for Miami Hurricanes

3. Andy Ludwig, Utah offensive coordinator

When Cristobal took over the job in 2021, Ludwig was one of the handpicked candidates to interview for the team’s open offensive coordinator position. While he didn’t land the job at the time, Ludwig matches the criteria of coaches Cristobal is looking to bring onto his staff. This past year, Utah was just outside the top 10 of scoring offenses in the FBS and finished 10th overall in total offensive yards. Ludwig offers impressive work when it comes to the run game after the Utes ended as one of the best rushing attacks in the country. Balancing that with a solid passing game will be the biggest question for the Utah coordinator.
