WHAT’S UP TODAY

First up this morning in your Miami Hurricanes news?

With fall drills starting the 31st, CaneSport publisher Gary Ferman takes on all your pre-camp questions.

This morning we’re also taking a closer look at a Miami offense that loses massive pieces including Cam Ward … but still has the potential to be incredibly explosive.

UM also added former USC and Utah safety Briton Allen, whose journey has been beset by injuries. He hopes to be more than just a depth-filler.

Plus we are continue our July Player Performance Index series looking at the 30 most impactful players for the coming season. In this series we focus in on how productive we think each Miami player will be this coming season. Today you can check out our in-depth looks at No. 3, OT Francis Mauigoa, who many believe will wind up a first-round NFL Draft pick.

In recruiting?

Two new schools have entered the fight for Venice (Fla.) four-star 2026 and Miami EDGE commit Asharri Charles since his pledge. Find out about that.

There’s an update on Miami top target Breck Kolojay, and it’s not good news for the Canes.

We also talk with Orlando (Fla.) Lake Nona four-star 2026 EDGE DeAnthony Lafayette. He may have committed to LSU earlier this month, but Miami is still in the picture here.

Another update: The Hurricanes are making a strong early impression on Waukesha (Wisc.) Catholic Memorial 2027 three-star defensive lineman Isaac Miller.

Plus we have the latest with Alabaster (Ala.) Thompson four-star top-200 quarterback Trent Seaborn – he is planning to visit Miami for the Hurricanes’ Week 3 game against USF.

And, as always, stay tuned today for any news that may come up.

MESSAGE BOARD POST OF THE DAY

2025 Record Conundrum … Posted by Dalew2009

I have been going back and forth regarding this teams win total in 2025. My orange and green Canes classes tell me 10-2 or 11-1. But when I step back and assess the overall team, I can’t help but see 9-3 or even, gulp, 8-4.

like most, I believe this team is going to take a major step forward on defense. However, we still have question marks up the middle of our defense. Our DT’s are unproven and we lack depth. Our S position is a major concern. When the fans tried to dismiss the loss of AJ Haulcey as not a big deal, it was ridiculous in my opinion. At LB we have mediocrity and a guy who could be great, but is coming off 2 major knee injuries.

On offense, I like Beck.I think we are still good at the position and I think nationally Beck is being underrated, but i think we will
miss the playmaking ability of Cam Ward. And I believe the WR corps is going to be somewhat of a problem. You don’t lose your top 6 pass catchers and just reload without skipping a beat. That would be hard for Ohio state, and believe me, we haven’t recruited like Ohio State at that position.

We are worse at kicker. How many big kicks did AB make over the last couple of years that played a major role in pulling some games out? This kid from Texas is an okay kicker at the college level, but he’s not AB by any means.

So with all that being said, I don’t think this team is as good as last years team, and I think we play a harder schedule. Until proven otherwise, I don’t trust this team to finish the season strong and their final two games are on the road in cold weather environments that are going to be very tough games.

For all those reasons, I think this team has a floor of 8-4 and a ceiling of 10-2, but I see 9-3 with another missed ACCCG and no trip to the playoffs.

MIAMI HURRICANES QUOTE OF THE DAY

DeAnthony Lafayette (Photo by John Garcia, Jr.)

“They (Miami coaches) said they’re gonna be close to me throughout my senior season. Continue to watch me and recruit me and they’ll make their best effort which probably won’t make a difference because I feel locked in with LSU, but that was basically their pitch.”

LSU commit DeAnthony Lafayette
