  • 2024: 1.81 years (Miami), 1.98 years (Florida)
  • 2023: 1.84 years (Miami), 1.72 years (Florida)

  • 2024: 0.9002 (Miami), .9001 (Florida)
  • 2023: 0.8994 (Miami), .8881 (Florida)
*overall rating is skewed downward by Carter Davis (PK) and Adam Booker (LS), neither who presently have 247 rankings and have thus been given a .6999 score.

If special teams are excluded, Miami's composite is .9052. Florida would be .8998

NOTES
  • As of 1/24/25, this will be the second youngest Miami team of the rosters that I have surveyed. The only squad that surpasses it is the 2012 Canes, which had only 1.15 average years of college football experience
  • The 2025 Hurricanes have the highest blue chip total of any squad in the last twenty years. It presently jumps from 42 in 2024 to 54 this year. This is the first time that blue chip totals have exceeded 49 players in at least twenty seasons
  • This year's total signing class is the most weighted towards blue chips of any class in the last twenty years as well at 67%. The closest previously were the 2023 and 2007 classes (58%). Last year was 43% by comparison
  • Attrition to date for Miami has been lower than previous years with 28 outgoing players, again reflecting the youth of the overall team last year
  • Florida has the experience advantage in most position groups: WR, RB, OL, QB, DE, LB, and CB.
  • Miami's defensive ends have a collective CFB experience average of just 0.7 years
  • Miami's true freshmen average .9074 in composite, Florida's true freshmen average .9011 (this average is skewed by one player who currently lacks a composite score. Exclude him and the Gator's freshmen class averages .9095)
  • Miami has 17 transfer portal players on roster compared to 21 the previous season
  • Florida has 20 transfer portal players on roster, the same as the previous season

Florida will be strong at RB, DT, and CB. Nowhere else scares me on that roster whatsoever. UM really needs a WR1 and starting LB. If they land that in the portal and there isn’t a ton of attrition late spring this team will be very good.
 
Looking at the greens with more than 0 years experience, it is clear to see how much better Miami did in the portal. UF's highest ranked transfer is a 5th year senior WR with a rating of 89. Miami brought in 11 transfers with an 89 or better - 10 of which were higher than 89 and the highest being Carson Beck with a 95.
 
Florida still has Billy coaching them. Idiot can’t figure out that there’s supposed to be 11 men on the field. Costs them TOs and penalties almost every single game.

Lagway will improve in the spring I’m sure, and that will help him be more comfortable. I was impressed with him last spring and said he was better than Mertz. OL is always a challenge for them, however, and if our DC is what he says he is, I think we will have the advantage here.

I’ve been told by national media Lagway is going to be the best QB in college football next year.

He better be or else Napier is getting fired on October 12th.

Really got to hope UF beats LSU. Normally I wish them to lose by 50 points. But after this past year of not playing any rank opponents we need some luck in that category apparently.
 
Another rugged schedule for UF. Four game stretch @LSU, bye, @UM, Texas, @aTM. Another road game at Ole Miss later in the season and home games against UGA and Tenn.

Nope! 50 - 0 loss is what I'm looking forward to and then us putting BTA the following week.
