Welcome back to another edition of Through the Smoke, a Miami Hurricanes football and recruiting podcast here on the 24-7 Sports Network, David Lake,

joined as always by Gabby Urutia.

We are here to talk Transfer Portal.

It's Transfer Portal season.

We are in what, day nine, day 10 of the portal being open.

The news happens fast.

Moves are happening quick.

And so there's a lot to get into here since our last podcast.

Before we dive into things,

I want to highlight a key sponsor of ours,

and that is Kane's Connection.

That's Miami's collective.

They play a significant role in helping Miami be able to go out and acquire top talent.

And we're going to talk about some of that talent here coming up in the podcast.

But Miami's collective is very strong and helping Miami not only acquire talent, but honestly retain talent.

You know, that doesn't really get talked about much here with the portal being open.

But Miami has done a really good job of adding talent via high school recruiting the last two cycles previous to this 2025 cycle, right? So it is important

for Miami to retain that talent because there's plenty of programs that would like to pick

off some of these guys on Miami's roster. And so it's important for Miami to also keep those guys

and maintain its depth and talent from top to bottom.

So if you want to go support Miami's collective on a grassroots level, go to canesconnection.com.
