Ahmad Moten (not injured)

1. Bell is awesome and if he comes back next year he will be one of the ~5 best OTs in America.

2. That Moten clip, holy **** that first step and explosion is insane. If he comes back next year he will be an All-America candidate

3. Miami is identifying, landing, and developing talent at a pretty insane clip right now. This is how it’s done to progress into one of the very top echelon type programs.

Bell and Moten are two examples of why you don't write off young players so quickly.

I have been a Bell defender since last year and still think once the dust settles he can be a 1st round pick BUT I was absolutely Motens biggest hater last offseason and man did he shut me up. Talk about the light coming on at the perfect time because he’s in for a nice NIL payday from us should he choose to come back.

He was a Great Dane puppy that needed time to get acclimated to his body and the position. He’s now on his way to making a lot of money one day. Out of our two tackles I’d bet on him to have the much higher ceiling . 61 has a very high ceiling at guard.
 
I never thought I’d see the day when guys with 3rd or 4th round grades like Bell and Moten (by my guesses) would return and not go pro. Two decades of Canes leaving early to get a jump on a second contract that usually never happened. Mesidor coming back and working his way intro the higher rounds, and Cam’s meteoric rise, must really have turned some heads. Plus the NIL of course.
 
When you can make as much or even more by staying and improving your draft stock, it’s a much easier decision. Especially when the money is guaranteed.

Folks just don’t wanna believe Bell is a helluva OT…small speed guy, power guy, it doesn’t matter…Bell can play is not the same guy as last year.

lol let’s not act like he was average last year. He kept Wards blind side clean last year. Ward was standing in the pocket and slow walking sideways for 10 seconds at times.

You pay top dollar to keep Moten out of the draft. Couldn’t find a better DT in the portal and he knows the system. A true Miami guy. We’ll be very dangerous next year on the line if we can keep him.

Agreed. Happy to eat crow about him. I wasn’t expecting him to be serviceable let alone arguably a difference maker.
