Can you imagine if Jackson was still on the roster for Miami?

Reports are circulating that Laurance Seymore, the redshirt sophomore from local powerhouse Miami Central, is withdrawing his name from the transfer portal.

The 6'2" 300+ pound center/guard made three starts last season and decided to look for greener pastures as it surfaced that he had intentions of transferring last week.

Unfortunately, the transfer portal window was closed before he entered his name. As of now, he still has intentions of leaving Miami and will not be with the team this season.

Schools interested in Seymore are from the ACC, Pac 12, and the MAC.

He saw action in eight games as a Hurricane and was a participant in the spring and Miami's media day last week.

One and two is easy, but who rounds out the rest?

We discuss what games we expect to see freshmen on the field this season, what NFL Draft picks are currently on the roster.

Big offer dished out today for top 150 prospect and top 15 junior cornerback Ivan Taylor.

Taylor is the son of former Pittsburgh Steeler and Super Bowl Champ CB Ike Taylor. No legacy issues here as pops went to Louisiana-Lafayette. He has big time positional versatility - he played mostly safety last year - and had solid production with 3 INTs and 8 pass break ups as a sophomore. Notre Dame, Tennessee, FSU and Louisville have all picked up recent visits from the four-star.

Multiple things are a factor here. Major NIL opportunities, loves Miami and yes - the interest in playing for Miami defensive line coach Jason Taylor is huge and Simmons' interest in the big metropolitan for possible real estate ventures in South Florida is what has kept Miami in the race for this long.

BUT despite anything that might get posted on social media, there is no clarity right now on where he is going to go. From people I have spoken to, this feels more so like a Charles Lester situation with Colorado and FSU. Lester led on that Colorado was in the thick of it, but at the end, he stills went with the Noles. I think he still ends up with Texas. The SEC move, their ability to basically match NIL, the ability to stay home, and them being closer to winning right now has them as the leader for me.

LSU is on the outside looking in from what I can tell. The leave of absence due to a medical emergency from defensive line coach Jimmy Lindsey is going to play a factor. He is a major part of LSU's recruiting efforts after he was poached away from South Carolina this winter. All reports say that it was a major medical emergency, so doubt he returns to the sidelines soon.

Back on the practice field Wednesday morning. It will be the last practice we have access to until CanesFest on Saturday.

Mario Cristobal, Tyler Van Dyke, Matt Lee and Akheem Mesidor will be available after practice. Access starts roughly at 9AM and we'll get roughly 15 minutes to view.

Adam Njie. According to a source, the 27th-ranked point guard is considering Miami as his top school at the moment.

Arizona State, and St. Johns are the other schools trending for the top-tier point guard.

Njie is a recent de-committment from Washington State and Miami reached out immediately after he made the announcement.

The recent fallout with the Pac-12 is certainly playing a factor in his recruitment.
