The Miami Hurricanes head coach, Mario Cristobal, expressed his questions and concerns as the team enters the 2026 season. He inquired about the offensive line's ability to be as physical in the run game as they were last year, noting that the current group of players, such as Anez Cooper, Markel Bell, and Francis Mauigoa, have shown great potential.
Cristobal also questioned whether the linebacker group would be deep enough in case a starting linebacker got injured, emphasizing that Mo Toure's experience and Chase Smith's potential make him hopeful for the team's defense. Lastly, Cristobal pondered Miami's special teams capability, specifically their kick returns and punts, hoping for more "splash plays" to add to their overall performance.
