Nothing fancy.  No high school superstars.  Just play hard every down.  Execute your plays better than the other guys.  Run each play with incredible attention to detail at your position. Indiana did just that in a season-opening win over Old Dominion on August 30.  The methodical Hoosiers left some big tractor trailer tire imprints on one football opponent after another this season. So it was eastbound and down, loaded up and truckin’ for the Indiana Hoosiers all the way to Miami, Florida for the 12-team College Football Playoffs season finale. Indiana delivered once again in Game #16 against a very talented group of Miami Hurricanes in the national championship game on Monday night. The unbeaten Indiana Hoosiers were matched against a physically larger and very resilient Miami Hurricanes team.  IU finally applied its patented sleeper hold with a late pass interception in the final minute to secure a 27-21 victory and the school’s first college football national title in 139 years. Indiana finished with the first 16-0 record in FBS history.  The Hoosiers subdued their three College Football Playoff match-ups by a cumulative score of 121-46. IU returned to Bloomington, Indiana with a championship trophy in hand to show to the school’s jubilant fans who – like so many – still can’t believe this just happened. If you liked exceptional defense, this game was definitely for you! By early in the fourth quarter, Indiana and Miami (which finished 13-3) each had been able to muster only 220 yards in total offense.  This often-times brutal defensive battle was anything but boring, though. The final quarter would produce the same number of points by both teams (24) as the amount scored in all three of the previous quarters.  Indiana led 17-7 as the final period began. The Hoosiers and their Heisman Trophy quarterback Fernando Mendoza were pushed around all night by a burly NFL-quality Miami defensive front. The Dolphins would be wise to sign a few of these college football warriors for their pro team this spring in the NFL draft. The Hurricanes marching band kept their relentless defense fired-up all night by playing the Star Wars’ “Darth Vader March” over and over. I almost expected to see a TV camera shot revealing Emperor Palpatine as Miami’s defensive coordinator.  The Canes put up a tremendous defensive effort against Indiana. But Indiana’s defense was up to the task in this championship game as well.  They swarmed to every tackle and shut-out Miami for the entire first half as Indiana took a 10-0 halftime advantage. The Hurricanes’ running game was nearly invisible for much of the night.  However, Miami’s Mark Fletcher, Jr. finally broke through the stubborn IU defensive line during the third quarter for a 57-yard score. That put the Canes on the scoreboard and narrowed Indiana’s lead to 10-7. The Hoosiers defense came to the rescue minutes later by blocking a Miami punt for a touchdown to restore a ten-point IU advantage at 17-7. Both teams’ offenses finally came alive in the final quarter Former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck finally located a few open receivers and quickly moved the Hurricanes down the field. A second Mark Fletcher, Jr. touchdown run cut Indiana’s lead to 17-14 on the very first play of the fourth quarter. The Hoosiers would answer that rally.  Indiana made this game even more exciting during a tense fourth quarter as they successfully completed two gutty fourth down calls. Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza surprised the Canes’ defense with a fourth down quarterback draw play.  He bounced off two different Miami tacklers en route to a 13-yard touchdown score. That gave IU a 24-14 lead with nine minutes to play. This game had become much like a very tense tennis match.  Back and forth they went during the final period.  Neither team gave up after the other team scored. Miami’s passing game responded once again.  Elusive running back Malachi Toney came alive with a couple of key pass receptions during the drive.  He raced through and around several IU defenders for a 22-yard score to cut Indiana’s lead to 24-21 with a little more than six minutes left. Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza then connected on a couple of clutch third down pass completions to move the Hoosiers down the field one more time. A well-conceived series of runs and passes for first downs helped IU eat-up precious minutes from the fourth quarter game clock. The Hoosiers opted to kick a 35-yard field goal to extend their lead to 27-21 with less than two minutes to go in the game.  Miami now had one final chance to win this game. The Hurricanes’ last offensive possession quickly advanced the ball all the way to midfield with under a minute to play.  A long pass downfield from quarterback Carson Beck was then intercepted by Indiana inside its ten yard line to seal the victory for the Hoosiers and sink Miami’s title hopes. That last minute pass interception by Indiana was the only turnover committed by either team in this year’s championship game. By the way, did someone steal the referees’ whistles at this football game? Millions of fans (like me) watching on television yelled, “Pass Interference!” or “Late hit – throw a flag!” at various points of this football game. Did the referees swallow their whistles during Monday’s game? Miami’s defensive backs were grabbing the uniforms, shoulder pads, arms, and hands of Indiana’s receivers all night long with only a few of the most obvious infractions penalized.  IU’s defense responded in kind by grabbing a few Miami receivers on some pass plays, too. At least two different Miami players should have been whistled for delivering late hits out-of-bounds in this game.  Another quite obvious targeting head shot was delivered by a Miami defensive player to Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza. Nary a tweet was heard. Miami (one of the most penalized teams in college football this season) was whistled for only seven penalties and 60 yards.  Indiana chalked-up just five penalties for 38 yards. Perhaps the title game’s referees may have carpooled to a local “Vision for Less” optometrist to be fitted for new glasses and forgot that this game was underway. Let’s give the officials credit for being consistent, though.  They allowed both teams get away with far too much in the title game.  Thankfully, no one appeared to be seriously injured during any of those plays. Regardless of the sport, games should be officiated in the same way as contests are called during the regular season.  This officiating crew stunk it up on Monday night. “Hoosiers II – The Football Edition” is likely going to be filmed soon That fantastic 1986 sports movie about a small Indiana high school basketball team winning the state championship may have been topped by the 16-0 national champion University of Indiana Hoosiers’ football team. Long-time assistant coach Curt Cignetti finally received his first head coaching job in 2011 at a Division II college in western Pennsylvania. He was age 50 at the time.  He quickly transformed that football team into a winner.  A move to North Carolina produced similar results for FCS member Elon University outside of Greensboro. Curt Cignetti then took over at James Madison University in northwestern Virginia.  He led the Dukes to a 52-9 record over his five seasons as the team’s head coach. Perennial football wallflower Indiana then picked this late-blooming coach-turned-miracle-worker in 2024.  In two seasons, IU has grown into a college football monster. Coach Curt Cignetti’s two seasons in Bloomington have produced a record of 27-2 with two College Football Playoff appearances. This was topped-off by Monday night’s well-deserved national championship earned by Indiana’s 16-0 team. What is 64-year old Curt Cignetti’s secret formula? Indiana had only eight players who were considered 4-star or 5-star athletes in high school.  Quarterback Fernando Mendoza was labeled as a “2-star” prospect coming out of a high school just a few miles from the University of Miami campus.  He wasn’t offered a scholarship by “The U” so he headed west to accept his only big-time offer to play at Cal. Mendoza would transfer to Indiana this season to team-up with his younger brother Alberto (also a quarterback).  The rest is now history. Coach Curt Cignetti assembled a group of talented underdogs who were willing to work harder and longer than players on most other teams. More importantly, the Hoosiers followed the directions of the Indiana coaching staff and became a model of precision execution on offense, defense, and special teams. This year’s Indiana squad performed together in unison like a championship basketball team.  Every player knew his role and executed flawlessly during most games.  The coaches smartly exploited the weaknesses seen in each week’s opponents.  The preparation and execution of the players and coaches helped this team to operate like a finely-tuned machine from week to week. Indiana’s offense played keep-away from the opposing defenses.  The Hoosiers dominated time of possession (including 36 minutes to 24 for Miami on Monday night). This team’s devastating blocking, power running game, and pinpoint short-to-intermediate passing game wore down opponents every week.  Winning the time of possession without committing turnovers helped lead Indiana to a national championship. Indiana won 16 straight games by repeating the same formula over and over again There was nothing fancy about Indiana’s football game plan.  They won every game by executing their plays better than the opposing team did. Coach Nick Saban won seven college football national championships (six at Alabama and his first at LSU).  Curt Cignetti had been a very successful assistant coach at Alabama under Coach Saban from 2007 through 2010.  Cignetti’s recruiting class of 2008 at Alabama would result in six NFL first round draft choices. Now that Indiana and its head coach have climbed to the top of the college football mountain, will the Hoosiers be able to remain there? Coach Saban (now a commentator for ESPN) said Monday before the title game that it will now become harder for Coach Cignetti to find new players with the same hunger to win as this year’s team. “Now everybody wants to come because of what your program can do for them (the top players),” said Saban.  “That dynamic changes everything dramatically – in terms of how you’ve got to motivate your players and how you put together your team.” Another factor in Indiana’s championship season was the character of the players.   Some of today’s NIL transfer “stars” may not fit-in with the selfless, team-oriented demands being made by Coach Curt Cignetti and his impressive coaching staff. Indiana’s precision style of football execution should keep the Hoosiers near the top for years to come. The team’s now-champion head football coach has often said, “If you keep your nose down and keep working, anything is possible!” Congratulations, Indiana!  The best team won.

Michael Felder and Stephen Hartzell empty the clip on Monday's natty, complete with a heavy dose of 'what it will take' for the underdog Miami to shock the world. Felder Five is loaded, as per usual, with some key points of emphasis ahead of the big game; can Mark Fletcher keep doing what he's been doing through the first three games on the ground? What about all of those single-digit studs along the Miami defense, and are they going to be able to disrupt the Heisman Trophy winner?

The Southeastern 16 crew previews and predicts an outcome on the College Football Championship game, featuring Indiana traveling to Miami. Topics include: The Hoosiers have been unstoppable and have gotten stronger in the Playoffs. Miami's defense has been its calling card with Rueben Bain and company. Can the Hurricanes get to Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza? The Hurricanes have also controlled the tempo through Mark Fletcher and the running game, holding the ball for 41 minutes in the win over Ole Miss. Miami's Carson Beck will be tested against an Indiana defense loaded with talent, and one that scored a pick-6 from D'Angelo Ponds against Oregon last week. Indiana's defense is elite, but the Hurricanes should be good for a big play or two thanks to Malachi Toney, who's explosive and never drops a pass. Indiana's special teams are elite. The Hoosiers have missed one kick all season and blocked a punt vs. Oregon. You won't believe the ticket prices! It's Miami's home field, but will Hurricane fans be out-numbered by Hoosiers?

It was one of the best college football postseason games of the last two decades, and at its end, the University of Miami Hurricanes beat the Ole Miss Rebels 31-27. Mark Fletcher, Carson Beck, Malachi Toney, Keelan Marion, Marty Brown,  and the rest of the Miami offense got it done when it mattered. The Miami Defense played as a unit and was able to do enough to prevent Trinidad Chambliss and them boyz from beating them in the end. They fought through penalties and injuries, dropped interceptions, and the flu to finally evict the demons of the Fiesta Bowl curse that the Canes have had for 40 years. Cam and The Beast have the complete analysis and breakdown of the game and what the win means for The U. Please go check out the great work of Cam and his staff at StateOfTheU.

Southeastern 16's Jay Greeson and Chris Lee power-rank the four teams remaining in the College Football Playoff, which are Indiana, Oregon, Miami and Ole Miss. Topics include the cases for and against each team, which are: Miami has the country's best pass-rush, led by elite guys in Akheem Mesidor and Rueben Bain Jr. It has outstanding, play-making defensive backs in Keionte Scott and Bryce Fitzgerald. On offense, it has potential NFL first-round tackle Francis Mauigoa, one of the country's best receivers in Malachi Toney and a future NFL running back in Mark Fletcher, not to mention an experienced quarterback in Carson Beck. However, the Hurricanes lost to a pair of teams that are unranked in the final regular-season AP poll in SMU and Louisville, the latter at home. Indiana is the nation's only unbeaten team and perhaps the most statistically-dominant one, too. Not only did the Hoosiers have the Heisman Trophy winner in Fernando Mendoza, but they've got all-American and all-conference players at every position on the field and were strong in offense, defense and special teams. And, of course, Indiana has coach Curt Cignetti, who may be the coach most suited to win in the modern college football environment. The Hoosiers did not have a statistical weakness for the season. However, they were more mortal in spells, such as a 20-15 win at Iowa in which they had 337 yards of total offense and a 27-24 win at Penn State in which they trailed late into the fourth quarter and were out-gained, 336-326. Oregon can challenge Indiana's statistical dominance in some ways. The Ducks' yards-per-play difference of 2.5 was the same as the Hoosiers and like IU, is strong in the trenches. Oregon also has star power in quarterback Dante Moore and four all-Americans: tight end Kenyon Sadiq, offensive linemen Emanual Pregnon and Iapani Lalolu and defensive lineman Dillon Thieneman. That defense was also salty against Texas Tech, shutting out the Red Raiders in their first playoff game. However, Oregon's case for the top spot is hurt by the fact the Ducks lost 30-20 to Indiana in the regular season. Ole Miss wasn't supposed to be here under rookie coach Pete Golding. But the Rebels have buy-in and confidence, a star quarterback in Trinidad Chambliss who's gotten better as the season has progressed, a wide receiving corps that spreads teams out, a stud running back in Kewan Lacy and a defense that wasn't outstanding but was consistent. And speaking of consistency, the Rebels were held under 417 yards of offense (that was their lone loss to Georgia during the regular season). The Rebels were more consistent than dominant. They gained 6.7 yards per play and gave up 5.3. &COLLAR Use promo code SEC16 for 16% off!

Well, that didn’t take long! Three of the top four seeds in this year’s College Football Playoffs bit the dust in the quarterfinals this week. Only top-ranked Indiana (now 14-0) remains alive heading into next week’s semifinal round. We are into Year #2 of the 12-team College Football Playoffs.  Last year, all four top seeded teams lost after a bye week.  The 2024 top seed Oregon lost to eventual champion and #8 seed Ohio State.  Second seeded Georgia, #3 Boise State, and #4 Arizona State lost in the quarterfinal round, too. This year, add three more top teams to the “one and done” party. Say good-bye to #2 seed Ohio State, #3 Georgia, and #4 Texas Tech.  Those three teams all had to wait nearly a month before ESPN (oops, I mean the College Football Playoff Committee) allowed them to play their first game in this drawn-out post-season event. The top-seed Indiana Hoosiers finally figured out the secret formula on how to survive the long wait to play football again.  They blasted #9 seed Alabama 38-3 on New Year’s Day to become the only favorite remaining in this year’s College Football Playoffs. Here are a few thoughts about this week’s four College Football Playoff games Game 1 – Cotton Bowl – #10 seed Miami (FL) 24, #2 Ohio State 14 The Miami Hurricanes displayed a powerful gale force defense in blowing away 10-point favorite Ohio State Buckeyes in Wednesday night’s New Year’s Eve playoff game. The Canes jumped to a 14-0 halftime advantage and never looked back. Miami’s bruising running attack featuring senior Mark Fletcher, Jr. out-rushed the defending national champion Ohio State 153 yards to just 45.  The ability to keep the football out of the Buckeyes’ hands late in the game hindered the chances of Ohio State making a comeback. Miami will play in next Thursday’s semifinal game at the Fiesta Bowl in Phoenix. Game 2 – Orange Bowl – #5 Oregon 23, #4 Texas Tech 0 Texas Tech definitely has a first-class defensive unit!  This game’s final score should have been much, much worse for the Red Raiders if their exceptional defense had allowed a few more touchdowns in this very lopsided affair. The Oregon Ducks’ offense misfired on several opportunities but still had plenty of points to beat the worst offense (by far) we have seen in recent college football memory. Need an example? Texas Tech’s senior quarterback Behren Morton passed for just 137 yards, lost 32 yards on six carries, was intercepted twice, fumbled once, and sacked four times.  Ouch. Oregon (now 13-1) moves on to play next Friday night against top seeded Indiana in a rematch of a game won by the Hoosiers 30-20 at Eugene, Oregon in October. Game 3 – Rose Bowl – #1 Indiana 38, #9 Alabama 3 The 14-0 Hoosiers dominated this game and put on a clinic in dispatching ESPN’s favorite team, Alabama.  The pre-game banter from ESPN’s GameDay crew came across as nauseatingly in favor of the mighty Crimson Tide taking down the overrated pretenders from Indiana. As former College GameDay crew member (and Indiana football coach) Lee Corso might say, “Not so fast!” Indiana’s Heisman-winning quarterback Fernando Mendoza efficiently completed 14 of 16 passes for 192 yards including three touchdowns. The balanced Hoosier running game tacked on another 215 yards and two more scores. Alabama ended its season at 11-4. Coach Kalen DeBoer and his team will face more scrutiny in the coming weeks after being chosen ahead of 10-2 Notre Dame for a playoff spot. Indiana advances into the semifinal round next Friday night in the Peach Bowl in Atlanta. Game 4 – Sugar Bowl – #6 Ole Miss 39, #3 Georgia 34 Ole Miss fans are thrilled about this post-Lane Kiffin team as it moved to 2-0 without its former coach in the post-season. Rebels quarterback Trinidad Chambliss continued to impress on New Year’s Day.  He led Ole Miss with a heroic fourth quarter rally to subdue the Georgia Bulldogs 39-34 in the biggest thriller of this season’s College Football Playoffs.  Chambliss passed for 362 yards and two touchdowns as the Rebels battled back and forth with an equally tough Georgia squad. Ole Miss is now 13-1 and will face Miami in the Fiesta Bowl next Thursday night. How did SwampSwami’s predictions about these four games fare? Not too bad!  My final story of 2025 gave my prediction for these four College Football Playoff quarterfinal games. I was 2-2 in correctly picking Indiana and Ole Miss to advance. Ohio State and Texas Tech let me down, but both deserved to go home after disappointing outings. A new champion in both the major college FBS and small college FCS will be crowned in January! Ohio State’s loss on Wednesday night insured a new champion for the large school FBS group. Likewise, North Dakota State’s loss to Illinois State in the small college FCS Playoffs insures a new champ on the lower division. The Redbirds (12-4) will face Montana State (13-2) in the FCS championship game on Monday night on ESPN at 6:30PM CST. Who is the happiest college football coach this week not participating in the College Football Playoffs? That would be former Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin. He signed a new contract to coach at LSU beginning next season.  The Ole Miss Athletics Director told Kiffin to hit the road to Baton Rouge and wouldn’t allow him to coach this year’s team in the College Football Playoffs. Lane Kiffin is definitely rooting for his former players to keep on winning. He still loves his players from this season’s Ole Miss team.  Kiffin’s new contract at LSU calls for him to be paid the same bonus money he would have earned had he been coaching this year’s Ole Miss team in the College Football Playoffs. LSU wrote a check for $150,000 to Coach Lane Kiffin after his former team at Ole Miss qualified as a participant in the College Football Playoffs. The coach then pocketed another $250,000 after Ole Miss’ first round 41-10 win over Tulane. Coach Kiffin just added another $500,000 – to be paid by LSU – after Thursday’s thrilling victory by Ole Miss over Georgia. Should Ole Miss win next week’s semifinal game against Miami, Lane Kiffin will pad his bank account with another $750,000.  A national title by the Rebels in two weeks would cost LSU another $1 million. As of today, the tab for LSU is now up to $900,000.  Two more wins by the Ole Miss Rebels would bring the total being paid by the Tigers to new coach Lane Kiffin to an obscene $2 ½ million! Let’s go ahead and try to pick the two CFP semifinal winners! Semifinal 1 – Fiesta Bowl – Thursday, January 8 – 6:30PM CST on ESPN #6 seed Ole Miss vs. #10 Miami (FL) Miami has been slaying giants during the first two rounds.  Their opening game defensive struggle at Texas A&M featured 106,000 screaming fans making life miserable for the Hurricanes’ offense.  However, Miami’s defense and running game prevailed in a 10-3 squeaker. Those same two elements (defense and a pounding running attack) carried Miami to a 24-14 victory in the quarterfinals against defending champion Ohio State on Wednesday night. Ole Miss has scored 80 points in its first two playoff games.  Miami has allowed just 17 points in its two playoff games. Something’s gotta give. If Ole Miss can put 27 or more points on the board on Thursday night, it should be enough for victory.  Get your checkbook ready again, LSU athletics department! Prediction: Ole Miss 30, Miami 24 Semifinal 2 – Peach Bowl – Friday, January 9 – 6:30PM CST on ESPN #1 seed Indiana vs. #5 Oregon This rematch will be conducted in a domed stadium in Atlanta.  Did you know that neither team has played a game in a domed indoor facility all season? Oregon’s defense surrendered 34 points to James Madison in Round 1 and then shut-out Texas Tech in the quarterfinals.  Go figure. Texas Tech played its worst offensive game in decades, though.  I don’t think Oregon is going to shut down a very balanced Indiana attack – especially on artificial turf. Oregon must find a way to score early and often and put Indiana into an early hole.  The Hoosiers’ balanced run/pass offense operates like a Mack truck to wear down opponents and has rarely been required to come from behind. I like Indiana’s unheralded but highly effective defense to take the spotlight next Friday night. Prediction: Indiana 34, Oregon 21 The post New Year = New teams and new Champions! appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.

Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon break down the biggest NFL and College Football Week reactions, playoff implications, and CFP first-round results as the postseason picture comes into focus. We start with the Chicago Bears’ stunning comeback win over the Green Bay Packers, what it says about Chicago’s resilience, and why the Packers are suddenly fighting for their playoff lives with injuries piling up and uncertainty around Jordan Love. We also dive into the Jacksonville Jaguars’ dominant road win over the Denver Broncos, Trevor Lawrence playing the best football of his career, and whether the Jags are being overlooked as a real AFC playoff threat. Plus — the Pittsburgh Steelers vs Detroit Lions wild finish, what Detroit’s loss means for their playoff hopes, and why Pittsburgh may be headed for another early postseason exit despite winning three straight. We break down Rams vs Seahawks with major NFC playoff implications, Puka Nacua’s historic stretch, and which team can actually be trusted in January. Brock Purdy earns the NFL Game Ball as the San Francisco 49ers stay red-hot and the Indianapolis Colts continue to slide. In College Football, we react to the College Football Playoff first round, including Alabama vs Oklahoma, how in-game adjustments flipped the game, and why coaching made the difference. We also break down Miami vs Texas A&M, the Aggies’ offensive struggles, and Mark Fletcher’s takeover performance earning this week’s CFB Helmet Sticker. Ole Miss and Oregon handle business as expected in lopsided CFP matchups.

The holiday edition of the Real Ones Canes Podcast is HERE! We continue to analyze Miami's opening round win against Texas A&M in the first round of the CFP. Notre Dame needs to STFU already. They dropped USC from their schedule to play BYU. Can we stop pretending they are special? Miami got a great Christmas Present as Mark Fletcher Jr. announced he is coming back! Where does that move leave the RB room? Who is going to hit the portal? Yes, Miami is going to play Ohio State. Yes, many of us are still pissed off about the flag. These players weren't born yet. Different team. Different program, but a win would mean a ton! What is your Canes Christmas Gift, not including a win against the Buckeyes? Let us know in the comments. If you haven't seen it, you have to watch this moment between Francis Mauigoa and Rueben Bain.  Go check out the great work that Cam and his staff do at State of The U!

The Christmas holiday season is now underway.  Yours truly will trek down I-20 to visit family in north Louisiana for several days later this week. This will be the final SwampSwami report for 2025, so let’s make it worth your time with some bold predictions for the upcoming playoff games! First, a review of last weekend’s first round of the College Football Playoffs #9 seed Alabama 34, #8 Oklahoma 24 The Oklahoma Sooners looked unbeatable early in the second quarter of last Friday night’s opening game of this year’s playoffs. Alas, it was the second half of that same second quarter which wrecked the Sooner Schooner and its national title hopes. OU raced to 17-0 lead early in the second quarter by scoring on three consecutive possessions.  Alabama finally put some points on the board with a 75-yard touchdown drive to make it 17-7. Then Oklahoma’s All-SEC punter Grayson Miller accidentally dropped the ball just prior to punting it.  Bama quickly recovered and would kick a field goal to trail 17-10. On the next possession, Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer completed a beautiful pass – right into the hands of Alabama defensive back Zabien Brown – for a 50-yard interception and score for the Crimson Tide. This game went to halftime tied at 17 apiece.  The Oklahoma football team and its home crowd of more than 80,000 looked shocked and deflated heading to the locker room after a self-inflicted second quarter collapse. Alabama tacked on ten more points in the third quarter to take a 27-17 lead.  The Tide went on to win 34-24 and will face #1 seed Indiana in a second round game on January 1. #10 seed Miami 10, #7 seed Texas A&M 3 Nobody could have predicted this putrid offensive performance by both teams in the first two quarters.  The scoreboard registered 0-0 at halftime on a dry, warm 75-degree Saturday afternoon in College Station, Texas. Miami finally got on the scoreboard with a third quarter field goal.  They were matched by Texas A&M early in the fourth quarter to make the score 3-3. That’s when Hurricanes’ running back Mark Fletcher, Jr. took over and literally carried his team on his back Saturday with 172 rushing yards.  His punishing fourth quarter runs carried the Canes downfield to take a 10-3 lead with two minutes to go. A final drive by the Aggies to the Miami 5-yard line ended when Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed was intercepted on a questionable pass into the end zone. Miami returns to the state of Texas next Wednesday night to play #2 seed Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl on New Year’s Eve. #6 seed Ole Miss 41, #11 seed Tulane 10 Before you blinked, the Coach Lane Kiffin-less Rebels jumped to a 14-0 lead with only a few minutes gone in the first quarter.  You may remember that Ole Miss played Tulane earlier in the season and came away with a lopsided 45-10 victory. Tulane never had a chance (again) in stepping-up to play this high-scoring SEC foe.  The Green Wave finished the season with an 11-3 record. Ole Miss travels to New Orleans to face #3 seed Georgia next Thursday on New Year’s Day in the Sugar Bowl. #5 seed Oregon 51, #12 seed James Madison 34 The Ducks had their way with the JMU Dukes in Saturday’s final first round College Football Playoff game.  Oregon led 34-6 at halftime and coasted the rest of the way. James Madison finished its season with an outstanding 12-2 record. The Ducks of Oregon will migrate across the USA next week to play #4 seed Texas Tech in the Orange Bowl on New Year’s Day. Prediction time! Wednesday, December 31 – 6:30PM CST on ESPN – Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas #2 seed Ohio State (12-1) vs. #10 seed Miami (FL) (11-2) Ohio State is rusty after nearly a month off, but they have more than enough firepower to sink Miami’s battleship.  The Hurricanes’ very expensive NIL transfer quarterback Carson Beck needs to have his best game of the year to deliver a win for the Canes. I don’t think he will. Prediction – Ohio State 31, Miami 14 Thursday, January 1 – 11AM CST on ESPN – Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida #5 seed Oregon (12-1) vs. #4 seed Texas Tech (12-1) Oregon and Texas Tech can light-up the scoreboard, but the Red Raiders’ defense should become the big difference in this game.  Oregon’s second half against James Madison displayed a number of defensive lapses.  Texas Tech took good notes and should exploit the Ducks secondary in rolling to a surprisingly easy win. Prediction – Texas Tech 38, Oregon 24 Thursday, January 1 – 3PM CST on ESPN – Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California #9 seed Alabama (11-3) vs. #1 seed Indiana (13-0) The only unbeaten team in major college football takes center stage in the famous Rose Bowl against SEC power Alabama.  Indiana’s gritty 13-10 win over Ohio State in the Big Ten championship game validated their claim to the #1 spot. Alabama’s offense must duplicate its second half performance against Oklahoma’s defense in order to stay close in this game.  In the end, Indiana’s Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Fernando Mendoza has a more balanced offense than Alabama and should prevail. Prediction – Indiana 28, Alabama 17 Thursday, January 1 – 7PM CST on ESPN – Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, Louisiana #6 seed Ole Miss (12-1) vs. #3 seed Georgia (12-1) Watch to see if the Ole Miss offense can exploit enough weaknesses in the Georgia defense to stay close in the first half of this game.  If not, Georgia’s ball-control offense has a tendency to wear down opponents late in the game.  Georgia has a proven big-time coach in two-time national champion Kirby Smart.  I cannot pick four favorites, so I like Ole Miss to jump to an early lead and stun Georgia in the Superdome next week. Prediction – Ole Miss 27, Georgia 21 Now, let’s review Saturday’s FCS Semifinals and make a Championship Prediction! #2 seed Montana State 48, #3 seed Montana 23 Montana State has been really close to winning a national title in recent years.  The Bobcats have finished second to North Dakota State three times in the past five seasons. This year, the Bison of NDSU lost – at home – to fast-improving Illinois State and left the door open for a new champion.  Montana State (now 13-2) punched its ticket to the title game on January 5 in Nashville with an emphatic fourth quarter performance to eliminate intrastate rival Montana. The Bobcats scored 21 points in the final quarter on Saturday afternoon to pull away from the Grizzlies.  Montana State will be attempting to win the school’s first FCS national title since 1984. Unseeded Illinois State 30, #12 seed Villanova 14 Illinois State won its fourth consecutive road playoff game by wearing down Villanova in Philadelphia on Saturday night. The “Roadbirds” improved to 12-4 in advancing to the FCS title game in Nashville in less than two weeks.  Illinois State traveled south, north, west, and east to defeat Southeastern Louisiana, defending champion North Dakota State, UC-Davis, and Villanova in succession in this year’s FCS playoffs. Quarterback Tommy Rittenhouse, school-record holding wide receiver Daniel Sobkowicz, and the Redbirds’ relentless 220-pound running back senior Victor Dawson controlled the football for nearly 40 minutes to just 20 for Villanova in Saturday night’s latest win. The Redbirds will try to grab the school’s first FCS football championship against 13-2 Montana State in the title game. *Prediction – FCS Championship Game – Monday, January 5 – 6:30PM CST on ESPN in Nashville, Tennessee #2 seed Montana State (13-2) vs. unseeded Illinois State (12-4) The two teams which have defeated all comers and will face-off in a fascinating title game being held this year at Vanderbilt University’s football stadium in Nashville. Montana State is capable of beating teams methodically or with big plays on offense.  The Bobcats’ opportunistic defense has been stellar all season.  This confident Illinois State team fears no one.  The Redbirds just became the first FCS football team to go 4-0 on the road to reach the finals. Illinois State’s defense can be suspect at times.  Montana State must not allow the Redbirds to control the ball like they have done throughout their incredible run in the FCS playoffs. This game should be a dandy!  I like the experience of Montana State to prevail in a very competitive title game. Prediction – Montana State 35, Illinois State 28 Heaux, Heaux, Heaux – it’s time for me to geaux! Merry Christmas to all!

The crew recaps Miami's hard-fought win over Texas A&M, highlighting strong performances on both sides of the ball. Praise is given to the Hurricanes' coaching staff, especially defensive coordinator Corey Hetherman, for a game plan that delivered when it mattered most. On offense, Mark Fletcher and Malachi Toney earn standout recognition, with Fletcher's leadership shining through as he picked up Toney after an early fumble. Toney responded in the biggest moment, scoring the game-winning touchdown. The segment closes with the Canes' defense standing tall on the final drive, stopping Texas A&M to seal the victory.

Omar Kelly joins after the Dolphins get crushed by the Bengals, calling the current state of the franchise a “poop show” and suggesting the organization is bracing for real change. Omar says Miami was surprised by the decision to bench Tua Tagovailoa, even while admitting his play had been bad, and questions whether anything improves if Mike McDaniel returns for another year. The guys react to another disastrous third quarter and debate why the Dolphins continue to struggle to find a clear vision at quarterback. The hour wraps with a shift to college football, as the crew recaps Miami's gritty win over Texas A&M and praises Corey Hetherman, Mark Fletcher, Malachi Toney, and a Hurricanes defense that stood tall to seal it.

It's a Hurricane Edition of the Mix Bag as hear sound from Reuban Bain , Mark Fletcher and Head Coach Mario Cristobal after the Canes 10-3 win over Texas A&M in the first round of the NCAA College Playoffs.

JT breaks down how the Miami Hurricanes survived a 10–3 defensive slugfest against the Texas A&M Aggies and why this game was never about style points. JT explains why the Miami Hurricanes won this game in the trenches, leaned on Mark Fletcher late, and let their pass rush wear Texas A&M down when points were at a premium. This wasn't boring football—it was old-school playoff survival, and the Miami Hurricanes proved they can win ugly just as confidently as they can win a shootout. JT also explains why the Miami Hurricanes are a dangerous matchup for the Ohio State Buckeyes, especially with their defensive front and game-control approach.

Massive game this week between the SMU Mustangs and the Miami Hurricanes! Taylor Tannebaum joins me to chat with two of the best players in this game, SMU's QB1 Kevin Jennings, and Miami's mighty RB Mark Fletcher Jr. You're going to love this conversation, lock in, and lets go!

The Canes came out looking sluggish against Stanford, but the second half saw Mark Fletcher score three touchdowns and the defense pitch a shutout against the Cardinal. Cam and The Beast start the show by looking at the offensive output for the Canes. The running game got back on track, but we did notice something about this offensive line. Carson Beck did enough, and Malachi Toney did it again. The second segment brings us to the mystery question that Cam needed to ask Beast and the defense. Again, the Canes gave up points on the opening drive, but adjustments were made, and more importantly, the players executed the scheme and shut down Stanford. With Akheem Mesidor out, we saw some newcomers step up, and two interceptions were had. We, once again, had to expand the show to three segments as we had to talk about the special teams. Miami got some good gains in the return game, but missed a kick, and somehow forgot to block while watching Mali make some great moves on returns.  Also, Cam permits us to talk about the game time and the line for the game against SMU. Also, we shall once again see some familiar faces as the Canes face the Mustangs. Don't forget to check out the great work of Cam and his staff at StateofTheU.

Florida travels to Miami to face a Hurricane squad that's had one of the best starts of anyone in the 2025 season. Chris Lee and Brian Edwards discuss the following topics around the game, which will be shown at 6:30 Central on ABC. Topics include: The Gators are talented but are finding all kinds of ways to lose games, ranging from DJ Lagway's five interceptions to penalties to poor offensive line play. Florida has tons of talent everywhere, including wide receiver Eugene Wilson, and is capable of big plays. Florida will not have DL Caleb Banks for this one. Miami quarterback Carson Beck's change of scenery has resulted in Beck being a top Heisman contender. The Hurricanes have an outstanding running back in NFL prospect in Mark Fletcher. The 'Canes also have outstanding talent on the lines of scrimmage, including defensive lineman Reuben Bain and offensive tackle Francis Mauigoa. Embattled Florida coach Billy Napier really needs a win here with a tough schedule ahead.

 Date: August 6, 2025Hosts: John Arrington, Aaron Wilcox, Andy StarrGuests: None In this episode of the Devy Devotional podcast, the hosts deliver their annual "Hot Takes" edition, offering bold predictions about college football players and their future prospects in the NFL. The trio skips the usual "Guess the Guy" segment to dive deep into their spicy opinions, rated on a Taco Bell sauce scale: Mild, Hot, Fire, and Diablo. The episode blends fun with actionable insights, reflecting on past predictions and unveiling new ones for the 2025 season and beyond.Key HighlightsReflection on Past Takes: The hosts revisit their hot takes from the previous year, highlighting successes like Aaron's call on the 2025 running back class generating hype (e.g., Ashton Jeanty, TreVeyon Henderson) and Eric Singleton Jr. rising to a top-five Devy wide receiver. John's standout prediction of Jordan Tyson surpassing Zachariah Branch earned a Diablo rating and proved prescient, with Tyson now a contender for WR1 in the 2026 class.Hot Takes Galore: Each host shares multiple bold predictions, with reactions ranging from Mild to Diablo based on their spiciness. The spiciest takes are highlighted below as the episode's key moments.Skipped Segment: The "Guess the Guy" segment is postponed to the next episode, giving Aaron a temporary reprieve (though he's back on the hook next week).Spiciest TakesHere are the standout predictions that earned the highest heat ratings:Aaron Wilcox: Kenyon Sadiq (Oregon TE) will be the next tight end to hit 1,000 receiving yards and become the Devy TE1 this season and beyond. Rating: Diablo Why It's Spicy: With a career A-dot of 1.9 yards and competition from Oregon's talented roster (e.g., Dakorien Moore), Sadiq would need a dramatic role change and 120+ receptions to reach 1,000 yards. Aaron argues Sadiq's explosiveness and a revamped Oregon offense (minus Tess Johnson and Terrence Ferguson) make it possible.Andy Starr: Kendrick Raphael (Cal RB) will be a top-three RB in the ACC for PPR points and rush for 1,000 yards. Rating: Diablo Why It's Spicy: Facing competition from ACC standouts like Damond Claiborne and Mark Fletcher, Raphael's lack of elite talent and Cal's middling offense make this a long shot. Andy cites coach Brian Harson's tendency to feed his RB1 as the rationale.Aaron Wilcox: Sawyer Robertson (Baylor QB) will be a first-round pick in the 2026 NFL draft. Rating: Hot to Diablo Why It's Spicy: A Baylor QB breaking into the first round is rare, especially with Robertson's unproven status. Aaron points to his size, mobility, and a potential Cam Ward-like rise, though John doubts his skill justifies it.John Arrington: Jayce Brown (Kansas State WR) will outrank Zachariah Branch, Denzel Boston, Eugene Wilson, Antonio Williams, and Carnell Tate, becoming a top-three Devy WR in the 2026 class. Rating: Hot Why It's Spicy: Beating out established names like Carnell Tate is bold, but Jayce Brown's upside at Kansas State could shine as a junior. John sees him as a sleeper ready to break out.Other Notable TakesJohn Arrington: Denzel Boston will be a day-three NFL draft pick (likely sixth round). (Mild) Consensus ranks him as WR16, but John sees him as overhyped and unlikely to rise beyond day three.Andy Starr: Niko Iamaleava will succeed at UCLA, reclaiming first-round draft pick status. (Hot) A bounce-back season could restore his stock, aided by a new OC and JV and Thomas in the backfield.John Arrington: Zachariah Branch won't declare for the 2026 draft and will transfer again. (Mild to Hot) Still ranked WR17, John predicts another flop at Georgia and a transfer.Aaron Wilcox: Darian Mensah (Duke QB) will be a top-five Devy QB by season's end. (Fire) His G5 success and $8M Duke transfer fuel this bold climb.John Arrington: JV and Thomas will be a top-five RB in the 2026 class. (Fire) John compares him to Bucky Irving, hinting at untapped potential.Closing NotesThe episode wraps with a teaser for future discussions, including Andy's unshared take on Diego Pavia, suggesting more spice to come. The hosts encourage listeners to act on these takes—whether trading for Zion Kearney or snagging Jayce Brown—while blending entertainment with Devy insight.Where to Listen: Subscribe on the Gridiron Ratings YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or find it at DynastyLeagueFootball.com.

Enterprise Connect 2025 Podcast | Technology Reseller News (Previously LIVE at Enterprise Connect 2025) “If you can't dial 911, nothing else really matters,” says Mark Fletcher, CEO of 911inform and one of the nation's foremost advocates for 911 modernization. Speaking with Doug Green at Enterprise Connect 2025, Fletcher sheds light on the critical, and often overlooked, challenges enterprises face in achieving compliance with federal emergency communications laws. In this special episode of Technology Reseller News, Fletcher discusses the evolution of emergency services from basic 911 access to next-generation 911 (NG911) deployments. Many enterprises still fall short on key requirements like dispatchable location—especially as workforces have become more mobile and distributed. Fletcher, who played a pivotal role in crafting and advocating for legislation such as Kari's Law and the RAY BAUM's Act explains how these laws transitioned from FCC rules to enforceable federal mandates under Title 47 of the U.S. Code. Fletcher urges IT managers and telecom professionals to consult with experts who specialize in 911 compliance. He emphasizes that the complexity of these laws—combined with the shift to IP-based and nomadic communications—requires careful planning and a multidisciplinary approach. “Telecom engineers aren't legal experts, and police departments aren't telecom engineers,” he says, highlighting the importance of cross-functional strategy. Fletcher's company, 911inform, goes beyond compliance, offering full-scale emergency event management that integrates panic buttons, gunshot and license plate detection, and IoT-triggered alerts into an intelligent NG911 payload for first responders. As more emergency calls originate from devices—not humans—solutions like these are becoming essential. To learn more, visit 911inform.com, explore Fletcher's insights at Fletch.tv, or get practical tips at 911tips.com.  

On this episode of The Real Ones Canes Podcast, Cam and The Beast summarize the Miami Hurricanes' Pro Day. Cam Ward showed out and continues to look like he will be the number one pick in the draft. Meanwhile, Xavier Restrepo ran a disappointing 40-yard dash. He said he had a hamstring injury. Why did he run? We have some news on this front. Elijah Arroyo looked really good as well. Spring Practice continues, and we take a look at the running back position. Mark Fletcher is going through his first full offseason, and we can't wait to see what he looks like in the fall. Chris Wheatley-Humphrey has put on 25 pounds, and coaches love his newly-found confidence. This is absolutely a huge recruiting weekend. We run through the big names that will be on campus and Cam explains why this is all good! The Beast skips talking about the UM Baseball team because, well, it is too depressing. Please go read all of Cam's great work at StateOfTheU.  

We recap a ho-hum football game, where the biggest highlight probably came after the game by Mario at the podium. Mama Hayes gives a great shoutout to Mark Fletcher and the week he had last week. Of course we round out with some College Football Trivia that Mama Hayes is all over. Go Canes!

Mark Fletcher takes it in for 3 yard the Touchdown the first of the game 7-0 Miami over Cal 

The Miami Hurricanes have secured a commitment from their top Transfer Portal target. First Team All-PAC 12 selection Damien Martinez has chosen Miami over Arizona, Tennessee, Mississippi State, and Kentucky. Martinez rushed for an impressive 1,185 yards with 9 touchdowns last season at Oregon State. Miami will team him up with quarterback Cam Ward in hopes of creating a playoff caliber offense. Miami is also hosting Houston WR Sam Brown, Marshall CB Dyoni Hill, and Louisville LB Jaylin Alderman and DE Tyler Baron for official visits this weekend. Matt Zenitz from 247Sports has already projected Alderman to become Miami's next commitment. Host Alex Donno explains why Damien Martinez is such a good fit in Miami. He is a true “featured back” who excels in yards after contact and running north to south. The Martinez addition puts less pressure on Miami's other big back, Mark Fletcher, to return too quickly from injury. Donno explains why he thinks Miami will last most but not all of the visitors from this weekend. Can the Hurricanes close on one or both of the Michigan State defensive tackles? The Hurricanes will be hosting MSU standouts Simeon Barrow and Derrick Harmon for visits beginning Monday.Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

The College Football Transfer Portal has been open for a week but Miami is yet to land a new commitment. Will this be a decisive week for the Hurricanes when it comes to their top transfer targets? The Hurricanes will be hosting top running back Damien Martinez and cornerback Dyoni Hill this weekend. Martinez has cancelled his scheduled visit to Kentucky this week, and Pete Nakos from On3 has predicted Martinez to choose Miami. Miami is also working on setting up a visit with top available wide receiver Sam Brown from Houston. The Hurricanes have also been interested in defensive tackles Simeon Barrow and CJ West along with interior offensive lineman Jason Zandamela. Is linebacker Jaylin Alderman also a target?Host Alex Donno explains why the portal has been slower moving so far than some fans expected, and why the pace should pick up this weekend. If Miami can add Martinez at running back, is there a chance Mark Fletcher could redshirt this year? Is Miami playing a risky game by recruiting transfers instead of focusing strictly on the development of young players? Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

Is Miami Hurricanes running back TreVonte' Citizen starting to look like his old self again? Miami head coach Mario Cristobal said this week that “something clicked with him” on Thursday. Citizen is a former 4-Star recruit but missed his first two collegiate seasons with a serious knee injury. Can Citizen provide an extra punch in the Hurricanes backfield along with Mark Fletcher, Ajay Allen, Chris Johnson Jr, Chris Wheatley-Humphrey and Jordan Lyle? Host Alex Donno reviews this week in Hurricanes practice with Marcus Benjamin, publisher at CanesCounty.com. Marcus explains why Miami could still use a veteran running back in the transfer portal this April. The guys discuss the immediate progress from early enrollee linebacker Cameron “Bobby” Pruitt and safety Zaquan Patterson. Marcus breaks down the competition for backup quarterback and why Jacurri Brown could earn an edge over Reese Poffenbarger. What makes starter Cam Ward so special? Marcus breaks down Miami's recruitment of 5-Star defensive back DJ Pickett. Pickett is visiting the Hurricanes this weekend. Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

Miami Hurricanes star running back Mark Fletcher is now expected to be fully ready for fall camp this summer, which means he'll likely be ready to start against the Florida Gators in the season opener. The update on Fletcher came from head coach Mario Cristobal on the same day it was reported that senior running back Henry Parrish Jr. is expected to leave Miami in the transfer portal. Does Miami have a need to add a veteran RB through the transfer portal? Fletcher, Chris Johnson Jr, Ajay Allen, TreVonte' Citizen, Jordan Lyle and Chris Wheatley-Humphrey might be more than enough to solidify the rotation. Host Alex Donno chats with South Florida high school sports expert Larry Blustein about Fletcher and Johnson's potential. Blu also breaks down freshman tight end Elija Lofton and what he can bring to the table in his first season. The guys talk about the possibility of Miami adding edge rusher Romello Height in the transfer portal. The Hurricanes will be hosting 4-Star TE Brock Schott for a visit this week. Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

The Miami Hurricanes are losing running back Henry Parrish to the transfer portal. Parrish has spent the past two seasons in Coral Gables after starting his career at Ole Miss. At Miami, Parrish rushed for 1242 yards and 10 touchdowns. Might he end up reuniting with one of his former Miami running back coaches? How much will Parrish be missed at Miami. The Hurricanes might have to begin the year without leading rusher Mark Fletcher. Between TreVonte' Citizen, Ajay Allen, Chris Johnson Jr, Chris Wheatley-Humphrey and Jordan Lyle, will the Canes have enough? Or will Miami try to bring in someone through the portal?Host Alex Donno reacts to the Parrish news and recaps a busy fourth spring football practice for the Hurricanes on Tuesday. Tight end Elija Lofton, a true freshman, made an impressive catch today. Xavier Restrepo, Joshisa Trader, Ny Carr and Ray Ray Joseph continue to make plays, too. Donno talks about an infusion of healthy players into the defensive backfield. What about the offensive and defensive lines? Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

Former Miami Hurricanes starting quarterback Jacory Harris recently referred to Miami's current QB room as the best in the country. What stands out most about Cam Ward, Reese Poffenbarger, Jacurri Brown, Emory Williams and Judd Anderson? Will Ward be able to maximize Miami's offense along with weapons like Xavier Restrepo, JoJo Trader and Jacolby George? Is Brown the quarterback in Miami's rotation with the most upside?Host Alex Donno and “The Truth Teller” Bruce Warner sit down with former Miami quarterback Jacory Harris to break down what he's seen so far in Miami's spring practices. Jacory is very impressed by early enrollee tight end Elija Lofton. He explains how Florida starting QB Graham Mertz is already talking trash about Miami. Donno shares some excellent news from Mario Cristobal from earlier today. The Hurricanes are expecting Mark Fletcher back healthy from his foot injury by the summer. He will likely be ready for fall camp and ready to start against the Gators on August 31st. Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

Which Miami Hurricanes sophomores are ready to break out in 2024? We already saw some of Miami's talented 2023 freshmen like Rueben Bain, Mark Fletcher and Francis Mauigoa break out last year, but several more are ready to do the same this season. Offensive lineman Samsom Okunlola was a 5-Star recruit but missed most of his freshman campaign with injury. He is competing for a starting job on the OL this season. Linebacker Raul “Popo” Aguirre has been shining in practice. There are also other candidates like receivers Ray Ray Joseph and Robby Washington, defensive back Damari Brown, or edge rusher Jayden Wayne. Host Alex Donno breaks down these sophomore risers and also discusses Miami veterans who are improving their stock heading into next year. Donno believes that players like left tackle Jalen Rivers, tight end Elijah Arroyo, and defensive lineman Jared Harrison-Hunte are continuing to improve. Donno explains the value Cam Ward brings to Miami in terms of extra wins and wonders if he could break Miami's single season passing record this year. Alex explains why the ACC and Big 12 had no choice but to accept a diminished revenue distribution in the new College Football Playoff format. Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.

Who will be the next young breakout star for the Miami Hurricanes in 2024? Last season, edge rusher Rueben Bain caught the attention of the nation as a true freshman. So did running back Mark Fletcher. So far, in Hurricanes spring practices, freshman receivers JoJo Trader and Ny Carr have looked excellent. Freshman safety Zaquan Patterson has looked good, too. There are ascending sophomores as well like receiver Ray Ray Joseph.Host Alex Donno and guest Dante from Q Sports Media recap what they saw in Miami's second spring practice. Dante explains why Xavier Restrepo's one-handed catch from Cam Ward was so impressive. Donno and Dante explain why they will be closely watching players like Josh Horton, Markel Bell, Isaiah Horton, Zach Carpenter and Elijah Alston in the next practice. Dante discusses why 2026 quarterback Dia Bell is such an important target for Miami in recruiting. Join our LOCKED ON CANES INSIDERS texting community and chat with host Alex Donno any time by clicking this link: https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncanes.
