Canes Chatter Gone Wild: Message Board Post of the Day

Every morning Gary Ferman forces Matt Shodell to wake up extra early to identify the best recent fan CaneSport Message Board post. It could be a question, a statement, conjecture, even a food recipe (orange and green macaroni & cheese anyone)? Today’s winner (or loser, depending on your perspective):

Toney vs. Barkate …. Posted by mathewgutierrez: Barkate is the real deal. Other than Toney, Barkate is far and away the best receiver on the team. There isn’t a close 3rd.

CaneSport’s Response: Yes, Barkate is the real deal. He proved that at Duke last season with over 1,000 yards. But to say he is “far and away the best receiver” outside of Toney on the team might be some hyperbole. No “close 3rd?” This receiver room is stacked, and while Barkate and Mensah clearly have a massive bond, good luck convincing coaches and NFL scouts that guys like Josh Moore and some of the other guys in the room aren’t physically positioned to perhaps be even better. It’s just as we sit here right now the production last year in NCAA football came from those two. Don’t sleep on other guys popping up with big years in that Miami receivers group. Barkate could wind up third or fourth in receiving yards depending how this thing shakes out … or he could be first. But clearly there are other guys talent-wise right there with him.

GOAT QB vs. GOAT RB Vote

The voting has been put out there for a while now, and today we are finally moving onto the next round.

The Ultimate GOAT will be determined by the end of the month!

Breakout Candidate

Today we start taking a look at our top 5 breakout candidates on the team. We start with No. 5 JJ Dunnigan, who showed this spring he’s a guy who could be a Bryce Fitzgerald v2.0.

Mario Details Championship Mindset

Miami Hurricanes coach Mario Cristobal went on The Rush With Maxx Crosby recently and stressed a key to his program that Crosby certainly recognizes: “Elite practices.” Don’t miss what he’s saying.

Baseball Wraps Final Home Series

It’s been a bit of an up-and-down season for the Miami baseball team, and the Canes are looking to finish strong with only a series at FSU remaining before the ACC Tournament. So how did the last home series of the season go? We have your recaps vs. Louisville – check out the outcomes of Game 1, Game 2 and Game 3.

2 New Commits On Board

The Miami Hurricanes landed a new DL commit: Ezekiel Ayangbile over the weekend. We brought you that breaking news plus analysis of his play with a closer look at what the commitment means for the program.

A day later? Another massive commitment in 5-star Donte Wright. We had that breaking news, what it means for Miami as a team an analysis of his game and what this means for UM on the national stage.

Oh, and where do the rankings now put UM? We have that as well!
