WR Ah'Mari Stevens is the only Miami commit expected today

 

When the 247 guys say a player looks good, they mean it in a different way than the rest of Canes fans.

So take it with a grain of salt when 269 guys mentions the boyish good looks and dreamy eyes of one of our Tight Ends?

 

I saw him in another video coaching em up, love to see it.

Also I thought it was interesting in the clips I saw they had a 1/2 line drill, Cantwell was the LT, SJ at LG and Jaden WIlkinson at C.

Only reason I found that interesting is because the starting DE/DT was LF and Scott, likely two starters, and the TE was lofton so it may have been a first string setup 1v1. SJ does look small at LG, he will need to really have some pop to break in on this line but Wilkinson at C was new to me. Hadnt heard much about him, if at all. Have to assume that LG spot is Samson when he is back however.

I think SJ will ultimately be at C, they are playing him at LG is because Samson is out for the spring. Everyone keeps saying how small SJ is, but this staff love him.

 

a grain of salt

I don't think that's just salt, hoss

 

the "care factor" of the guys towards the program is as great as we have seen in 20 years. it's a testament to culture and character.

very special.

What made Miami, Miami in the heyday and perhaps the leading indicator were becoming a progrum again

 

I think SJ will ultimately be at C, they are playing him at LG is because Samson is out for the spring. Everyone keeps saying how small SJ is, but this staff love him.

I agree on both fronts. Clearly they trust him to be a lead blocker as a TF, he is def out of their normal mold of guys they like on the OL so he must have that pop factor. Also doesnt help when he is sandwiched between a 6'7 cantwell and a 6'6 guy lol I mean Bell made Samson look small at times

From what I've heard from multiple people who have seen practices,he's bad snapping the ball to the QB.Unless he improves that he will continue to be a fullback on goal line runs.

 

Excuse my ignorance, but how can someone be THAT bad at snapping a **** ball? Like we aren’t talking about a random out of shape sedentary bum off the couch, but a CFB athlete? Is that not fixable after a couple of months of practice? We aren’t talking about Chuck Knoblauch catching the yips throwing a baseball 10 feet, but snapping a football 3 yards? I’m not trying to be funny, I’m legitimately asking cause I continue to read that about this kid and I don’t understand lol

Makes no sense to me either, especially considering that the NFL has 40 year old long snappers, which has to be infinitely harder than a shotgun snap. I seen kids in pee-wee football able to make this snap.

To quote a scene from Seinfeld

Elaine: “Just because you say a man is good looking does not make you ***”
George: “it doesn’t help”

 

Thats the U right there, thats where it was ages ago and now its there again. Mario the greatest coach at Miami when its all said and done, what he had to build from the ground up is all time levels.

 

After watching the new TEs post practice interview.. I’m confident we won’t have TEs missing blocking assignments

This dude has that thing Heatherman has
