WHAT’S UP TODAY
First up this morning in your Miami Hurricanes news?
A story you won’t want to miss is the incredible journey of Miami track and field jumper Russell Robinson. He arrived as a walkon … and now is an Olympian.
You also aren’t going to want to miss our interview with Miami OT Francis Mauigoa, who clearly expresses his goals for this year’s team and shares his thoughts on QB Cam Ward, among other matters.
In football? We continue our roster analysis stories as well as game previews. Will Georgia Tech and Wake Forest be tougher games than perhaps people think? We dive into their 2024 outlook. There’s also our look at Duke, now headed by former Miami coach Manny Diaz, which should be a highly anticipated Mario vs. Manny game. There’s the continuation of our July Player Performance Index series, too, and we break down No. 17 Sam Brown, No. 18 Elijah Arroyo and a tie at No. 19 between a pair of DTs, CJ Clark and Simeon Barrow. Is Brown going to put up big numbers even as the anticipated No. 3 option at WR? Can Arroyo finally stay healthy and produce? And can the two projected starting DTs actually be major difference-makers? We tackle that.

In other news, the EA Sports College Football 25 game will be unveiled soon. Ahead of the game release, EA Sports revealed some of the top overall teams, offenses, and defenses, which saw Miami crack the list in two out of three categories.
There’s tons of recruiting news and updates as well, and that starts with the commitment of four-star WR Daylyn Upshaw. We had that breaking news with his feedback, plus an analysis of what it means for the Canes.
