Summary

The Miami Hurricanes football program is on a bye week, so it is time to talk recruiting. UM landed a big time cornerback commitment just on the Friday before spring break in Jaelan Waters from Armwood High School. What type of player is Miami landing in Waters? What does this mean for the class? InsideTheU's David Lake and Gaby Urrutia share their thoughts in this latest edition of Through The Smoke. Later in the podcast, Lake and Urrutia discuss a way too early mock recruiting class and set the expectation for what should be an impressive 2026 recruiting class for the Hurricanes. Enjoy the show!

0:00.0	Welcome to another edition of Through the Smoke.
0:14.3	This is a Miami Hurricanes Football and Recruiting podcast on the 24-7 Sports Network.
0:19.6	I'm Gabby Uruidia, one of your hosts of the podcast, David Lake,
0:23.1	on vacation in the Panhandle during spring break, having some technical difficulties as we
0:28.5	were trying to work through this. So just going to be me today, going through some recruiting
0:33.3	topics that happened over the last week, you know, going through my first mock class,
0:38.2	which I put on Insideview.com, where we're essentially taking a super early kind of shoot-your-shot
0:44.3	type of projection to what Miami's 2026 recruiting class could potentially look like. So I'm going to
0:50.1	dive into that a little bit. I'm going to dive into the addition of Jalen Waters, Miami's most
0:54.8	recent commit, and maybe even look ahead into this next week of spring football. So, but before we
1:00.4	do that, I want to start off by, you know, talking about our sponsors, Kane's Connection, Miami's
1:05.7	official NIL collective. They do an excellent job of establishing Miami as one of the premier college football
1:12.6	programs when it comes to being able to acquire talent. We saw Miami go out in the winter
1:16.8	transfer portal cycle, planned a top five transfer class by really restructuring the secondary
1:22.9	and going out and getting different impact players, quarterback Carson Beck. Miami is able to do those things because of the guys over at Kane's Connection and the job that they do.
1:32.1	So I would encourage you to go check those guys out, you know, support them at any tier that best fits your needs,
1:38.8	that best fits what you're able to do in order to contribute to Miami Hurricanes football effort. This is our way of
1:45.3	being able to kind of partner with the University of Miami to help them acquire talent at an elite
1:50.4	level, continue to acquire talent at an elite level. So definitely check out canesconnection.com.
1:56.4	Also want to encourage you to check out the Mercerino Law Group. If you have been in a car accident, if you're injured in a car accident, I want to encourage
2:04.5	you to call Nick Mercurino.
2:06.1	He is a huge Miami fan.
