My top 10 (Miami) players for the '25 regular season...

Good list Steve. I might sneak one guy into the list up from honorable mention. I was really nervous about the kicking game when we lost borregales. But man Carter Davis has been almost as good. 14-16 he’s hit long field goals he hit one late vs nd to win. and he’s been even better on kickoffs. Was expecting the kicking game to fall off some.
Yeah, key forgotten player. The idea that he’s forgotten is due to consistency & fact he never cost us. Surprisingly great addition.
 
I’m putting K Scott at 3 or 4. He changed the defense with his elite coverage, tackling and blitzing at the nickel that we haven’t had for years. We have missed him since his injury. A special player
He's tied at 2 for me with Bain. Maybe 4 edges him out because of positional importance but 0 has been elite in every way. And I don't mean millenial "elite," I mean actually elite. And Fitzgerald gets an hm for filling in in his own way & excelling as a freshman.

This best part is, 21 of the players you have listed could return next season. Add in an additional 21 blue chips from this recruiting class, a solid portal class and next seasons roster could be special. The future is extremely bright in Miami.

I take it you think Beck is so good you don’t even bother listing his name?
 
Bain
Toney
Beck
Mesidor
Cece
Scott
Moten
Thomas

They’re all impressive but those are my top 8. TE is our biggest weakness.

Keonte Scott should be #1a or #2. He's been the most impactful player on the field for at least 4 or 5 games. He was also playing almost every single defensive snap game in and game out. Warrior.

There are a lot of good football players on this roster. Respect to Mario, the staff, and the kids.

Don't let these boys get hot starting next Saturday, that's all I'm gonna say. This is a championship roster, period.

Great list- good write up.

My M. Toney addition: I’d maybe offer that Toney has some Roscoe Parrish in him as much or more than some of those dudes. (Wasn’t Roscoe also a HS QB and also did some throws off of some of his sets while he was here?)
Yep, my cousin went to Miami Senior High with Roscoe and graduated the same year, that is correct Roscoe played QB in high school
 
Great list @k9cane

1. Toney
2. Mesidor
3. Bain
4. Scott (I’d put him 2 or 3 if not for the injury)
5. Thomas
6. Mauigoa
7. Moten
8. Poyser
9. CJ Daniels
10. Fletcher

Can’t argue with that. I think Fitz did well against the ACC teams and all the kudos to him playing well but Scott got that rare skill of blitzing, play speed sideline to sideline and tackling in space.

He’s going to be a nickel in the nfl for a long time.
