Here's where the Hurricanes are ranked.51. RB Damien Martinez, Miami (FL)

The Oregon State transfer posted a 94.3 rushing grade in 2024, third to only Ashton Jeanty and Cam Skattebo among FBS running backs. He averaged 4.5 yards after contact per attempt, which was second among Power Four tailbacks.45. WR Xavier Restrepo, Miami (FL)

He was the most valuable player in the nation according to PFF’s wins above average metric while his 92.9 PFF grade led all FBS signal-callers.
