Could Anthony Campbell return?

I don't remember many people saying that. He moved up a class and most here stressed that he likely would need time to mature physically.

Not true. There was a chorus singing he would start day 1!

Why would you equate a kid like Daylen Russell with Artavious Jones? Jones is in a different universe from Russell as a prospect. I do agree that we need another DT among other things. It's like Cribby said. We need another 5-6 great additions in thr spring portal to get where we want to go.

Yea, for the life of me I’ll never understand why Russell was in that class. It was a head scratcher from day one and still feels that way for many of us. I get it - the whole Columbus mafia connection - but still, I never really understood that take at all.

I just hope he’s a good locker room guy who pushes people with hustle plays in practice… definitely went against Mario’s “it has to look a certain way” phrase he threw out

Whatever more scholarships so you can take some flyers

I'm right there bro. The way it was explained to me was that part of Mario's vision/plan was to take highly ranked studs and then supplement them with kids who are not rated highly yet were extremely productive in high school with high character and high grades. I understand the theory of what he is trying to do but when the rubber of theory meets the road of reality, it's not going to work out like you planned it much of the time.

He was 16

"...There's been some chatter about Blount potentially re-classifying from the class of 2025 into the 2024 class. Blustein assures me that Armondo is physically and mentally mature enough to do just that. 'No doubt,' Blustein said. 'He's been at the varsity level (at big programs) now for four years.'"

Maybe you should stop typing.

FFS you are a moron

Then guess what happened? He went to college and turns out needed more time.

Like is this real life? Turn off your internet facing devices for a week.

This is an excellent theory! It just takes patience, something that we don’t seem to have in Miami. We see low ranked guys flourishing all over the country in their redshirt junior and senior years! It’s “Miami the Microwave”
