Some quick scrimmage notes

[Cane in Los Angeles]

Purely from an aesthetic sense (and probably cause of the font on those jerseys) but ‘98 Edge vibes from that shot of that Ray Ray touchdown.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

no Don Chaney mentioned throughout camp. Not a peep

Dmoney talked about him in the podcast.

 

[Canes2523]

Harrell may only have 60 catches this year but he’s going to average 20-25 ypc

Philip Dorsett 2.0

 

[sdaly12]

If Harrell has 60 catches for 25 ypc…..he’s the best WR in the nation.

we need harrell to stay healthy and provide an over the top great. 30 catches maybe 5 TD's 600 yards total

I agree. But one man was talking about 60 catches for 25-30 ypc. That's All-American numbers right there lol

Miami has overall been deficient in the return phase for years.

Do we see an improvement this year?

 

[gogeta4]

Sorry if mentioned in one of the pods or elsewhere but where do you see him playing this year? I know some mentioned he'd be moved around but is he primarily a S or CB?

At Vandy the game i watched...they had him playing a ton at the nickel spot essentially.

Im hoping for at minimum 3 to redshirt ...but play in 4 games...One of them being able to crack a special teams unit and rotation.

We will need all of them next year with the losing 4 guys at minimum

Can chase smith stay healthy? Ragone .

3 of 4 should RS but the best 1 should see the field and maybe top 2. We lose most of the LB room after this year these young guys need reps

Good that’s what we want to hear. Usually when his name is said it’s with an injury

Those were the days. I’m hoping dudes like Ray Ray or Chris Johnson can make an impact here

I feel like Kee Smiff did a solid job last year? I dunno. I was drunk. Blocked most of it out.

 

[caneworld]

Miami couldn't hit a beached whale with a harpoon...

basically.

Our LBs and secondary were playing bubble soccer last year... hopefully things have changed

 

[QSTOKES]

Chaney will absolutely be needed because I fully expect for Parrish to wear down, Fletcher to hit the “freshman wall” and Allen to probably have nagging injuries especially with him being injured last year. Our luck won’t be that great where all 4 RBs are perfectly healthy all year. Chaney needs to absolutely stay ready at all times. No excuses.

Agreed, but think committee approach keeps everyone relatively healthy. Chaney and fletcher should be able to finish games if kept fresh throughout majority of game while Parrish and allen eat early

You forget about all the 2021 hype? “Most experienced offensive line”etc. didn’t mean anything. Don’t want to see Ragone getting snaps over Popo just because of how many games he’s played.

Fun with Math

Assuming we complete about the same number of passes from last season- that's about 260 completions.

Here was the distribution

WR about 160 catches
TE about 60 catches
RB about 40 catches

You might expect something like this for 2023 with injuries tipping the scales one way or the other for the WR group

Restrepo 40
Young 40
George 26
Harrell 60
B Smith 2
Ladson 0
Joseph 0
Redding 0
Horton 0
