Miami Football questions for ACC Kickoff
Tight end Brevin Jordan is the only starter Miami lost on offense. The return of Will Mallory in his fourth season for Miami at TE should significantly alleviate Jordan beginning his NFL career. Mallory set career highs with 22 receptions for 329 yards and four TDs in 2020. Freshman Elijah Arroyo will complement Mallory at TE.
Miami has the most experienced OL in college football history entering the 2021 season. The Hurricanes have 190 starts on the OL among the returning players. Entering his third season, Zion Nelson is projected as a 2022 NFL first round draft pick after leading FBS in sacks allowed as a freshman in 2019.

How is the continuity of the nearly the entire offense returning an advantage?
King will know how nearly every player on the Hurricanes offense works. How Harley runs routes, the way the OL protects him and where running backs like the ball on a handoff are some examples of the continuity the Miami offense should have in 2021. As the QB, King can discuss how important the continuity for Miami is.
The 19 returning starters will provide Miami with one of the most experienced teams in college football. Many of those players will move on after the 2021 season. Miami could lose their entire OL following the 2021 season. Harley and Rambo are in their last seasons and Mallory is also like to leave for the NFL.
