A list of the most influential player from each top 25 team was written up by 247Sports.Com’s Sam Hellman. Which Miami football deserves the honor of being the Hurricanes most influential and why.
That depends on your perspective. Is it the player that the Miami football team can least afford to lose? Their best player. How do we determine that? The eye test? Using metrics? The player that has the biggest impact on the Miami football team? Is that player on offense, defense or special teams?
Among the players that Hellman chose are LSU quarterback Joe Burrow, Florida State running back Cam Akers and Virginia Tech defensive lineman Ricky Walker.
