Miami Hurricanes likely 2018 preseason top ten team

NBCSports.Com’s College Football Talk has the Hurricanes fourth in their “Way-to-early” top 25. The question whenever the Hurricanes get off to a get start is the U back. They are not close to all the way as of now. They are on the right track.

Having their Storm ’18 Class and next season’s team in the consensus top ten keeps the Hurricanes in the discussion throughout the offseason. That, in turn, will help future recruiting classes.

"NO. 4 MIAMI WHY? The Hurricanes seemed poised for a breakout 2018 campaign, then returned to the national stage ahead of projections before crashing and burning in losing its last three games.  With 2018 on the horizon, a significant amount of talent returns to a Mark Richt-led squad that played in its first-ever ACC championship game. WHY NOT? Richt brought with him to South Beach what pushed him out of Athens: a penchant for building good teams, but teams not quite good enough to contend with the best the conference has to offer.  A neutral-field game against LSU in the opener should be a good gauge for where The U stands moving forward."
