We interrupt your Miami Hurricanes Spring Game preparation to discuss the new deals that Miami's OC and DC got a few days ago. We praise The U for doing what it takes to keep Mario Cristobal's lieutenants in the Gables. How does former UM president Donna Shalala factor into this? Beast tells you. Mario and Alex Mirabal continue to build a dominate and deep offensive line by getting big commitments and a JUCO transfer. Jai Lucas has his work cut out for him with the basketball roster. There are two returning players, one big time recruit, and two transfers. That's it. For Now. Should we be worried? Cam says no. Why are Francis Mauigoa and Rueben Bain dropping in mock drafts? Do teams have ulterior motives? Finally, the Spring Game is here! Who do the guys look forward to seeing? What do they expect from this Spring Game? Will it live up to the hype?

On this episode of the ROCPOD, we do a deep dive into this absolutely loaded Miami Hurricanes' wide receiver room. Who will get run out of this talented group? It's been reported that Luke Nickel is QB2. Beast thought maybe Dereon Coleman would earn the spot. Cam breaks down Luke's game, going back to his days dominating Georgia high school football. Speaking of QBs, the Canes got two QB commits this week. We give you the breakdown on the two QBs, and Cam tells you why one of them got an offer. NFL reporters and draft gurus are still up in arms (see what we did there?) about Rueben Bain's arm length. A bunch of GMs are going to kick themselves for passing up on Bain. Jai Lucas has to replace some players who have entered the portal. We give you the update. Don't forget to go check out Cam and his staff's great work at StateOfTheU.

This is a jam-packed episode of the ROCPOD. We start by putting a bow on the first year of the Jai Lucas era for Miami Hurricanes' basketball. They lost to Purdue in the round of 32, but the future seems really bright under Jai Lucas, if he stays in the Gables. The NFL Draft is coming up, and the Canes that hope to have their names called by Roger Goodell in a month worked out for more than 100 NFL personnel and all 32 teams on Monday. We tell you who improved their draft stock and who may have hurt their chances. Where will Carson Beck go? Cam and The Beast disagree on this one. The Canes have started Spring Practice. What have we learned so far? Who are we looking forward to seeing this Spring? Also, some major recruits have verbally committed to The U. We give you all of the deets.
