WHAT’S UP TODAY

First up this morning in your Miami Hurricanes news?

With the big game around the corner we have two new shows for you: Countdown to Kickoff with CaneSport’s Gary Ferman and Zach Abolverdi of Gators Online breaking down the Miami-Florida game, plus U Bet CaneSport with Lee Sterling handicapping the game … and other contests coming up this weekend. So don’t miss those.

Plus we have Mario Cristobal’s thoughts heading into the game as he calls UF “one of the most talented teams in the country,” and Miami TE Elijah Arroyo shares his take including how Shannon Dawson is expected to open up the offense for Cam Ward & Co.

Then there’s Matt Shodell’s column looking back at how the Gators dropped Miami from the series … because the Canes simply got too good. And we have the top 5 UF players that the Canes need to be wary of in the game as well as what the Gators are saying heading into the game from their perspective. Also don’t miss our position by position look at who has the edge heading into the game … how many of them are in Miami’s favor or not might surprise you.

In recruiting? Don’t miss our update with recruits predicting who will win the game.

And we update Miami (Fla.) Northwestern four-star 2026 receiver Calvin Russell. He has emerged as an early recruiting priority for the Hurricanes and Gators in next year’s cycle, so it’s no surprise the No. 18 overall prospect in the On3 Industry Ranking will be evaluating both teams during his trip to The Swamp this weekend. Get his take.

Another visitor is Pensacola (Fla.) Pine Forest 2026 ATH Zion Legree. With UM and UF after him, where do things stand and what’s he saying about the upcoming game?

Also on hand for the game will be Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna four-star receiver Jabari Brady. He has been one of Miami’s top recruiting priorities since coaches became permitted to directly contact 2026 prospects in mid-June, but Florida has made an aggressive push for the blue-chip wideout heading into Saturday’s game.

Plus we catch up with Cincinnati (Ohio) Lakota West four-star Miami tight end commit Luka Gilbert, who talks about his status and thoughts heading into Saturday’s game.

And, as always, stay tuned today for any news that may come up.

MESSAGE BOARD POST OF THE DAY

Reality check … Posted by Shadowbxr

There are 0 players on Florida’s roster who would be starting for us (maybe Jason Marshall, but he has had a total of 2 picks in 3 years of starting).

Dogfight? If we don’t win by 40 it will be a disappointment.

MIAMI HURRICANES QUOTE OF THE DAY

“They do a great job running the ball, pound at people really well. Their quarterback (Graham Mertz) is a gamechanger, really is. His completion percentage in normal down and distance and pressure situations is impressive. They have explosive wide receivers. They have maybe one of the best receiving corps not only in their conference but maybe the country. Big, powerful tight ends. They are a loaded group, one of the most talented teams in the country.”
