The ATM (10/31)

I’ll have a more detailed Bank soon, but just wanted to drop a couple quick hitters:

- I like where Miami is trending for 6’8, 340 OT Markel Bell. I’m told the nation’s top JUCO lineman looked “freakish” on his visit and made a great impression personally. He would be an impactful addition to this class.

- As we first reported on the Bank, Miami has a sky-high grade on DE Cole McConathy (Mobile, AL). Very good shot there.

- Miami is continuing to prioritize and recruit DE Armondo Blount (Central). That story is ongoing. Let’s see what happens.

We have 3 edge’s committed, bring back Bain, Kelly, Wayne, and maybe Mesidor. We have bigger needs than that kid and not many spots left, don’t understand that one but I don’t understand a lot of our takes this cycle so whatever lol.

Is Collins Acheampong projected to play inside?

I think by the time he adds weight, he probably projects as a fast-twitch DT.

I think he’s an interior long term but who knows. He is a jumbo freak athlete with ridiculous twitch and agility that will probably line up all over the front.

With those 4 coming back,that is easily a top 5 group nationally.It makes little sense to bring in 4 DEs unless they plan to move Bain inside to replace Taylor.Also the 3 DEs committed are rush ends and Mcconathy looks like he can grow into a SDE.

For what it’s worth, McConathy has an offer from Pitt, so factor that into your dream team coaching staffs that have Partridge in it

This recruiting cycle is not going as planned

Maybe Mario will get better recruiting this cycle after the season. Maybe all his focus is there right now

With Francis, Samson, McCoy and Kinsler I would think we’d be going hard after OG types vs. another OT. O and Plazz and Broussard project as Tackles. Either way if Bell is a top talent I’ll trust Mirabal

Would love some news at DT and CB

Hope we get cole

Hope not, that’d be stupid IMO. He is a menace exactly where he is, leave him be. On some 3rd down packages then yeah, move him inside to get your best pass rushers on the field but that kid is an End, leave him alone.

I want that bama kid. Always need a crazy white boy on defense.

Why are we prioritizing a DE ranked 1100th?

I doubt the spots are that limited and not all of them work out. Look at Cy Moss. Numbers game. I for one want to start seeing some actual consistent pass rush so I’m good with it.

What if he gains another 10-15 lbs that would put him around 290-295,can he still play DE at that weight.
