Someone posted some data here and I remember it being noteworthy but not necessarily compelling

I could be wrong though would have to go back and check that

IIRC it showed some correlation but had no point of reference highlighting if the number of injuries was higher than the NCAA average. Without a reference point it’s just meaningless data.
 
The praise lauded on the team is not the same as last year. Several insiders who watched practice (e.g., Cribby) gave warning signs. Some chose to ignore the signs and focus solely on D$'s recaps (it's his job to create enthusiasm and interest in the Program). That's on you.

As Mr. Wolf said "[l]et's not start sucking each other d^kcs" but these reports are encouraging and a much needed step in the right direction.

From Canesport:

Team came up with the "Money Ball Challenge" early in the summer. It rewarded the receiver that caught the most balls each week on the JUGS machine.
To encourage his receivers to do their part, TVD participated for a week, taking his turn playing WR.

“I caught like 1,500 or something (balls) like that just to get them catching some balls,”

TVD noted that it appears to have worked. “This is the best I’ve seen the receivers so far. They’ve been doing a great job catching the ball, getting upfield, run after catch. I think from last year to this year it’s a huge jump. I’m excited to see what those guys can do leading into game week and the season.”

“I feel more comfortable over this past week-and-a-half or so, feel like we’re getting in a groove with everything offensively,” said Van Dyke, adding that he’s studied film on all Miami’s opponents over the summer. “I’m very proud of the guys and what we’ve accomplished so far. But still a good way to go.”

“Ray Ray made a big jump, had a really good off-season, working hard getting on the JUGS machine. He won the money ball challenge for receivers (with the most total catches on JUGS in the offseason). He’s done a great job catching the ball, running routes, getting open. He really took that jump, will continue to do that.”

“I’m really happy with timing with all the guys out there, now it’s just about executing, throwing and catching the ball. Doing a great job, and going to continue to do that.”

Last year I was very uneasy about the offense , OL depth wr’s and the scheme. As you said I posted such leading up to the first game. Everything I hear this go round is much more positive. The biggest positive being the understanding of the playbook. It’s a night and day difference. We’re still thin Im some places but if we remain healthy it’ll look dramatically different imo.

The difference in a year with the o is astonishing

Offenses energize defenses. Having an offense that can make a team play catch-up is what causes havoc. Which is why I think 9/10 wins isn’t a pipedream

How would you compare this to our 2020 or 2021 offense ?

Good to hear - you did call out the WRs last year almost immediately.
