CBS Sports Names Three Miami Hurricanes Defenders Among College Football’s Most-Feared Players | CanesInSight

As you likely know as a reader of my site, I am a massive fan of the Miami Hurricanes. The 2025 season was dramatic, with stunning highs and frustrating lows, but there is no question that it was the best season in two decades. A huge part of Miami's run to the title game was the dynamic duo of defensive linemen Reuben Bain and Akheem Mesidor, both of which were taken in the first round of the NFL draft. Given the loss of these trench bullies, its tempting to assert that Miami's defense will take a significant step back in 2026. But in the age of the transfer portal and Mario Cristobal's incredible ability as an elite recruiter and developer of talent, things aren't so simple.
A few days ago, CanesInsight's Trinton Breeze linked to a CBS Sports report that is bullish on Miami's 2026 defense.
On Friday morning, CBS Sports writer Brad Crawford released his own list of the most feared defenders in college football, where he was very high on the Miami Hurricanes including three players.
Crawford included tres Hurricanes among the 26 players featured on his list: No. 26 Bryce Fitzgerald, No. 19 Ahmad Moten, and No. 6 Damon Wilson.
This trio of elite defenders exemplify Miami return's to the upper echelons of College Football. Fitzgerald had an absolute banger of a freshman season, demonstrating Mario's knack for identifying and recruiting talent. Moten provided depth on an elite DL in 2025, steadily developing in his time at Miami, and is already projected as a first-round pick in 2027. Wilson, an absolute monster pass rusher, arrives at Miami via the portal at the expense of the SEC's Missouri Tigers.
Maybe I'm wearing orange tinted glasses, but I think Miami's defense is going to be elite in 2026.
It doesn't stop there, though. The RB room returns in its entirety, including veteran contributors Mark Fletcher and CharMar Brown, electric freshman Gerard Pringle, and a healthy Jordan Lyle, who flashed in 2024 as a speed demon. The WR room has been upgraded, and Miami landed the top QB in the portal again in Darien Mensah.
All the pieces are in place for another national title run. Its been far too long!
What are people using for a terminal emulator app on iOS these days? I’m currently using Blink because it’s the only one I’ve found that handles custom fonts with ligatures and NerdFont icons, but there is a lot I don’t like about it. I paid good money for my preferred font, and I like to use it everywhere 🤓
Decided to make Shepherd’s Pie for dinner, but my daughter reminded me that she doesn’t like lamb. She requested Potato Cheese Soup. So I decided to make both, and they turned out perfect, but now I’m exhausted. Lots of leftovers for the week though! 😎
Review: Project Hail Mary
Instant Sci-Fi classic
Finally got around to watching Project Hail Mary. Perfect movie. No notes.
Just watched a video about Gaussian splats and my mind is blown. So cool!
Carbonara for dinner? Meringues for dessert! Thank you, eggs, for being so awesome.
Indigo is quite a nice iOS app for a converged Bluesky and Mastodon experience. I post (POSSE) from my site typically, but replies are almost always done directly on the platforms. A bit of a gap to close, but I’ve never been able to think of a convenient way to do it.

Today’s a good day to get/install OS and browser updates on all your critical devices.
Consider turning off wifi on non-critical devices (putting to sleep is no longer enough because many devices still listen to or contact the internet while asleep) until you have had a chance to safely update their software (perhaps after software updates are available in response to pwn2own demos and disclosures).

I will forever adore SmallTalk for being so simple that using it requires you to effectively recreate reality and load it into memory every single time. I shall now teach you the language. “Object message.” Done! Now go teach integers to tell you if they’re even or not. 🤓
For his “Presentation of Learning” at school, my son is doing “The History of Programming Languages.” He asked me to come up with two languages that are the most different to illustrate dynamic/flexible vs. static/rigid. We went with SmallTalk and C++ for maximum chaos.
