In a somewhat surprising move, depending how a person looks at the NFL Draft, Miami left tackle Jalen Rivers will be returning to Coral Gables for one more go-round with the Canes, per the Sun Sentinel:

Without question, the Hurricanes are building a fantastic offensive line for the future with the elite 2023 recruiting class a foundational part of the equation. That being the case, experienced offensive tackles are always coveted.

Miami is still going to lose center Matt Lee to the NFL and there's a chance the Transfer Portal could take someone as well. Having Rivers back to go along with the likes of Francis Mauigoa, Anez Cooper, et al, is still a huge deal.

Miami football got better today with Rivers deciding to return to the Canes. That's the bottom line.
