If you have some extra time on your hands during the down time between now and Spring practice here are some videos of the 26 players that signed with Miami on National Signing Day 2014.
Our good friend and former blogger bg1906 posted this on Twitter and we though highly enough of his excellent research that we decided to give it some equal airtime here at Canespace.
So get out the popcorn, grab a frosty beverage and sit back and enjoy the highlights of the class of 2014:

I used to get these NFL draft magazines. They'd go through NFL rosters and put little symbols next to players to give the readers an idea of what calibur of player was. We should rate the roster in this manner. 5 categories: Elite, Good, Solid and Below Average and Unknown.
So it would look something like this.
Solid: Ryan Williams
Unknown: Brad Kaaya
Unknown: Kevin Olsen
Below Average: Gray Crow (Sorry SOUP)
Elite: Duke Johnson
Solid: Dallas Crawford
Solid: Gus Johnson
Etc, etc, etc...
Posted by: The Dude | February 15, 2014 at 12:21 AM
Five BEST Canes:
