    Alright, Cane faithful, gather 'round because you heard it here first (or you're about to)! This week's episode of U Heard is packed with the kind of juicy Miami Hurricanes football talk that keeps the offseason buzzing. We're kicking things off by dissecting the recent comments from Ole Miss head honcho Lane Kiffin, who's thrown a little SEC shade our way with some eyebrow-raising allegations about Miami's pursuit – and potential payout – for former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck. Did the U have a secret war chest ready? We'll dive into the plausibility and implications of these claims.

    Next up, the transfer portal continues to be the Wild West of college football, and Syracuse head coach Fran Brown is not holding back!

What does this tell us about the current landscape of player acquisition, and is the portal truly becoming a playground for only the wealthiest programs? We'll offer our perspectives on the escalating financial arms race.

    But the portal news doesn't stop there! In a development that has Cane Nation on high alert, five-star defensive tackle David Stone, a name many of you know we've championed since his recruitment, has officially entered the transfer portal. While he hasn't donned the Orange and Green yet, we're dedicating a significant portion of the show to analyzing what this monumental decision could mean for the Miami Hurricanes. What are our immediate needs on the defensive front? What kind of impact could a player of Stone's caliber have on our defense? And who else might be vying for his talents?

  • PORTAL IS OFFICIALLY OPEN! - EPISODE 234
    Apr 17 2025

    The transfer portal giveth, and the transfer portal taketh away. Welcome to U Heard, the podcast that keeps you up-to-date on all things Miami Hurricanes football. We're here to help you navigate the ever-shifting landscape of college football, one portal entry at a time.

    In this episode, we dive headfirst into the 2025 spring transfer portal, dissecting the departures of Zaquan Patterson and Joshua Horton, and speculating on who might be next to enter. This spring window is a critical time for roster management, and it's a short one - the portal is only open for 10 days, closing next Friday. We'll analyze the impact of these losses on the Canes' roster, discuss potential replacements both in the portal and from within, and examine the broader implications of the portal for Miami's recruiting strategy, especially in light of recent comments from ESPN analyst Ryan Clark. Clark has partly blamed Miami head coach Mario Cristobal for the current state of NIL, citing Miami's significant payment to transfer QB Carson Beck as a key factor influencing other players' decisions. We'll delve into this perspective and its potential impact on the Canes. How do we, as Canes fans, process this constant roster churn and the ever-increasing influence of NIL? Join us as we explore the mystery and volatility of the portal, offering our insights, expert analysis, and (sometimes questionable) predictions.
