Locked On Canes - Daily Podcast On Miami Hurricanes Football & Basketball

The Miami Hurricanes enter a crucial third season under Mario Cristobal. The head coach believes the culture has taken a huge step forward and he has a roster ready to compete every Saturday. Cristobal talks about the luxury of having continuity with both coordinators returning. Cristobal discusses what makes transfer quarterback Cam Ward so special. He explains how Miami’s offense will be ready to attack both through the air and on the ground. He describes what to expect from transfer running back Damien Martinez. Mario Cristobal joins host Alex Donno. Donno also interviews Cam Ward, starting left tackle Jalen Rivers and top linebacker Kiko Mauigoa. The players describe Miami’s team goals for the 2024 season and how they can gel together as a unit. Ward describes his early impressions in Miami and why he decided to play another season in college, rather than going pro. Mauigoa made a similar decision, deciding to return to Miami. Kiko talks about the importance of playing with his younger brother, Miami’s starting right tackle Francis Mauigoa.

What will make this Miami Hurricanes team different from the ones that have underachieved in recent years? Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes will take center stage on Wednesday at the ACC Kickoff media days. The Hurricanes have made key transfer additions like quarterback Cam Ward, safety Meesh Powell, defensive ends Elijah Alston and Tyler Baron, running back Damien Martinez, WR Sam Brown and defensive tackle Simeon Barrow. With Ward and Powell as notable exceptions, many of these players arrived after Spring Football. Will this talented Hurricanes roster be able to get on the same page by August 31st? Host Alex Donno discusses the burning questions that Mario Cristobal will need to answer at the ACC Football Kickoff. Will Miami’s team discipline improve from last season? Will this player-led team be able to hold themselves accountable? Has Cristobal taken steps to improve his game day decision making? What will Miami’s running back depth chart look like this season with a talented group, including Damien Martinez, Mark Fletcher, Chris Johnson, Ajay Allen, Jordan Lyle and Chris Wheatley-Humphrey?

The Miami Hurricanes will look to build more recruiting momentum after beating LSU and Florida State for four star cornerback Jaboree Antoine. The Hurricanes are actively recruiting four star corner Ben Hanks Jr and five star defensive lineman Iose Epenesa. Hanks is a local standout from Booker T Washington, but he’s a Florida Gators legacy. Can the Hurricanes beat out their rivals in Gainesville? Epenesa, meanwhile, is an Iowa legacy, but recent trends have considered his recruitment to be a Miami vs Utah battle. Host Alex Donno talks to Locked On Network recruiting expert Brian Smith. Smith weighs in on where Miami stands with Hanks, Epenesa, and with five star wide receiver Jaime Ffrench. Brian explains why he will favor the Miami Hurricanes to beat the Florida Gators on August 31st. Donno shares quotes from Miami offensive lineman Anez Cooper about how the Hurricanes have shed negative players from their roster. According to Cooper says a couple of teammates “didn’t want to be here” last season, but the players in question have moved on.

The Miami Hurricanes have beaten LSU and Florida State for the verbal commitment of four star cornerback Jaboree Antoine! Antoine is the 8th ranked corner in the class of 2025 and the second rated player from the State of Louisiana. This was an important recruiting win for the Hurricanes after they were beaten by LSU mid-week for five star cornerback DJ Pickett. Antoine’s recruitment trends have gone back and forth between the Hurricanes and Tigers for the past couple days. Host Alex Donno discusses the importance of this recruiting win after a couple of recent losses on the trail. Miami did well to fight off surges from LSU and FSU over the past week. High school football expert Larry Blustein weighs in for his scouting report on Antoine. Miami now has the 8th ranked Class of 2025.

Miami might lose out to the LSU Tigers for another top cornerback target. After LSU beat the Hurricanes and Oregon for DJ Pickett, the Tigers are becoming the trending favorite for four star DB Jaboree Antoine. Antoine will choose between Miami and LSU on Saturday, July 20th. If the Hurricanes miss on Antoine, their top remaining target will be four star Booker T Washington CB Ben Hanks Jr. The Hurricanes have been trending well with Hanks, but Florida might be tough to beat, since Hanks is a Gators legacy. Host Alex Donno talks about a tough week for Miami in recruiting but reminds overreacting fans that the Hurricanes just had a very good stretch in early July. Meanwhile, Miami can turn some of these recruitments around if they WIN on the field this fall. The game against Florida could be decisive for Hanks. Where does Miami stand with Columbus HS four star safety Bryce Fitzgerald? Donno recaps his favorite wins in Miami football history.

The Miami Hurricanes are very much alive for some top cornerback targets despite missing out on DJ Pickett. On Saturday, four star cornerback Jaboree Antoine will be announcing his verbal commitment. The New Iberia, Louisiana native will choose between Miami and LSU. He recently removed Florida State from his top three. The Hurricanes are also very much in the mix to land four star corner Ben Hanks Jr. The Booker T Washington (Miami) star is local, but his father played for the Florida Gators. Can Miami beat their rivals in Gainesville? Host Alex Donno talks with South Florida high school sports expert Larry Blustein. Blu offers his scouting reports on Antoine and Hanks. Larry also breaks down Miami committed safety Hylton Drake Stubbs. Can the Hurricanes land Stubbs’ high school teammate Jaime Ffrench? The Hurricanes are making a heavy push for the five star wideout. Blustein has been covering high school football for decades. He explains what Mario Cristobal’s staff is doing to separate themselves on the recruiting trail.

Five star cornerback DJ Pickett shocked the college football world on Wednesday night by picking LSU over Oregon and Miami. For the past two weeks, top recruiting analysts had considered this a Ducks vs Hurricanes battle, with LSU in third. The narrative flipped very quickly when Pickett put on the purple and gold hat. Miami worked very hard recruiting Pickett and they will not give up between now and National Signing Day in December. Host Alex Donno and The Truth Teller Bruce Warner discuss this shocking outcome, but detail what Miami will need to do at cornerback. The Hurricanes have already recruited well at defensive back and have a chance to land Jaboree Antoine later this week and Ben Hanks Jr. this fall.

Are the Miami Hurricanes about to miss out on their top recruiting target? On3 Vice President Steve Wiltfong and other national recruiting experts have begun logging crystal balls in favor of Oregon to land five star cornerback DJ Pickett. Oregon and Miami have been in a tug of war for Pickett’s verbal commitment, and he’s scheduled to announce on Wednesday. Are the national pundits selling the Hurricanes short here? Host Alex Donno and guest “The Truth Teller” Bruce Warner discuss their continued confidence in Miami landing Pickett, but they wonder what Wiltfong, Tom Loy of 247Sports, and other experts know about this process. As far as they know, Pickett has not informed Oregon or Miami of his decision. The guys discuss a new report from Action Network’s Brett McMurphy stating that the Big Ten is not interested in adding Florida State. One of the reasons he stated is because they have shown to be a “disruptive member” of the ACC. Is Miami taking the proper approach by moving in silence? Donno and Warner give their top five players on the Hurricanes this season.

We are just two days away from five star cornerback DJ Pickett announcing his decision. The top cornerback in the class and top player from Florida will decide between Oregon, Miami and LSU. This recruitment has felt like a tug of war between the Hurricanes and Ducks. Who is trending? On3 Sports VP Steve Wiltfong said Monday on his “Whiparound” recruiting show that the Hurricanes could be in for a special week with their recruitment of Pickett and fellow top corner Jaboree Antoine. Wiltfong hinted that Miami might now be trending in front of the Ducks but that some big conversations will still be had between Monday and Wednesday. This one isn’t over. Host Alex Donno wonders how big the proximity of Miami to Pickett’s home town of Tampa will be. Plus, Pickett’s uncle played for Miami in the 90’s and his cousin, Booker Pickett Jr, is now enrolled at The U. Donno explains why it’s too early to freak out about defensive line recruiting. Will Hurricanes QB Cam Ward break the single season passing yards and touchdowns records set in the 1980’s by Bernie Kosar and Steve Walsh? What will Miami’s offensive balance look like this season?

The Miami Hurricanes have landed a verbal commitment from four star wide receiver Daylyn Upshaw. The four star prospect from Phenix City, Alabama chose the Hurricanes despite interest from Auburn, FSU, Georgia, Texas and others. Upshaw put up huge numbers for Central HS last season with 59 catches for 1,185 yards and 15 touchdowns. He becomes the first committed receiver in Miami’s Class of 2025. Host Alex Donno is joined by Locked On Network recruiting expert Brian Smith to discuss what makes Upshaw a special talent. The guys discuss where Miami now stands in the Class of 2025. Meanwhile, it’s decision week for Miami targets like DJ Pickett and Jaboree Antoine. Will Miami get more good news this week?

The Miami Hurricanes continue a period described as “ten days of madness” in recruiting. The Hurricanes are in the mix to land five star cornerback DJ Pickett, four star defensive lineman Jarquez Carter, and four star cornerback Jaboree Antoine. Hurricanes staffer Dennis Smith coined the madness phrase, and has set the table for excitement within the Hurricanes fanbase. Will Miami be able to beat out Oregon and LSU for Pickett? Is Jarquez Carter now trending to Ohio State? Can Miami beat out FSU and LSU for Antoine? Host Alex Donno and “The Truth Teller” Bruce Warner make their predictions for how Miami will fare on the trail in the next week or so. They debate the narratives that will happen if Miami beats Florida or if Miami loses to Florida. How toxic could the fans get if things don’t work out on August 31? Donno asks for caution in wide receiver recruiting. Fans are nervous now, but remember how things came together late with Miami’s top defensive line class last year? The guys discuss who could become new impact players for the Hurricanes this season.

The Miami Hurricanes have received two new predictions for blue chip prospects in the Class of 2025, including a consensus five star defensive lineman. Gary Ferman from CaneSport On3 logged an RPM Prediction for Miami to land Iose Epenesa, the third ranked defensive lineman in the class. Steve Wilftong, On3’s VP, logged an RPM for the Hurricanes to land four star WR Daylyn Upshaw. Wilftong added a note on DJ Pickett. He heard Miami might indeed be trending for the five star defensive back. Most of the recent national smoke has been pointing Pickett to Oregon. Host Alex Donno breaks down these new predictions and notes. Donno describes which receivers Cam Ward has already built a solid relationship with. Miami has the most talented overall roster in the ACC but can they put everything together this season? Are the Hurricanes taking a risky approach with wide receiver recruiting? Miami seems to be banking on the biggest names and out of state recruits. Miami lost out on Dallas Wilson, who reaffirmed his commitment to Oregon last night. Donno passes on the latest reports on conference realignment. Suddenly, the Big 12 is now buzzing to possibly land FSU and Clemson. Could Miami follow them?

Another top Miami Hurricanes recruiting target has scheduled the announcement date for his verbal commitment. Four star cornerback Jaboree Antoine will decide between Miami, Florida State and LSU on July 20th. The Westgate HS (New Iberia, LA) standout was previously verbally committed to LSU before backing off his pledge in late June. Miami is believed to be in a good position for Antoine, but can they get things over the finish line later this month? The Hurricanes have already done very well at defensive back in this cycle. Miami has landed pledges from four star prospects Hylton “Drake” Stubbs, Amari Wallace, and Chris Ewald. They’ve landed three star Timothy Merritt. Host Alex Donno discusses the important upcoming stretch with announcements from DJ Pickett, DL Jarquez Carter and Antoine set to come between July 17th and 20th. Can Miami go three for three? Meanwhile, the Hurricanes have just announced that they will open up their 2027 football season against Utah in Las Vegas. This will serve as an important spotlight game for both programs. Miami has never faced Utah before. Mario Cristobal knows the Utes well from his time coaching Oregon. The Truth Teller Bruce Warner joins Donno to offer clarification on his takes about DJ Pickett. Donno and Warner explain why their optimism is growing for the Hurricanes to land the five star defensive back.

The Miami Hurricanes and Oregon Ducks are battling it out for five star cornerback DJ Pickett. He’s the top recruit in the State of Florida and will be announcing his decision on July 17th. Pickett’s father said in an interview that no matter which school he picks, he will likely shut his recruitment down and focus on that choice before National Signing Day in December. LSU is also in the mix for Pickett, but Steve Wiltfong from On3 Sports believes Miami and the Ducks are in a better position. Most of the buzz currently points to Oregon. Can Miami convince Pickett to follow in the footsteps of his cousin, Booker Pickett Jr, who just enrolled at Miami? Alex Donno and guest Bruce Warner argue about Miami’s chances at Pickett. Warner feels he’s essentially an Oregon lock, while Donno feels there is time to change his mind over the next nine days. There are currently no 247 Sports crystal balls for Pickett, making it feel like things are still somewhat open there. The guys discuss where Miami stands with four star defensive lineman Jarquez Carter and four star DB Jaboree Antoine. Carter will announce on July 18th. Antoine hinted that an announcement will come soon. Donno and Warner discuss how Florida Gators fans feel that Miami will be an easy victory for them on August 31st. Also, why is Cam Ward getting hated on by rival fans this week?
