Summary
Miami’s tight end future is wide open as veteran Elija Lofton returns to lead the charge, but with Alex Bauman gone, the Hurricanes are banking on two explosive freshmen—Gavin Mueller and Israel Briggs—to fill the void. Mueller, a six-foot-five basketball switcher who hauled in 32 catches for 500+ yards and 10 TDs in high school, brings elite receiving talent, while Briggs, a four-star recruit from California, adds depth with 48 catches and 8 TDs. Both must prove they can block under new coach Mike Viti, who prioritizes run-blocking after his Army background. With the depth chart unclaimed and a new staff in place, these rookies could make immediate impacts—and maybe even help Miami win it all.
