The University of Miami has a strong recruiting class for the impending 2018-2019 season. This is the most promising team the Hurricanes have had in recent memory. While the quarterback position is still up in the air between Malik Rosier and N’Kosi Perri, many crucial and experienced players are returning. At the running back position, incoming freshman Lorenzo Lingard is itching for his opportunity to shine. However, he will have to compete with rising junior Travis Homer. Homer rushed for 966 yards for the Hurricanes after Mark Walton was lost for the season with injury.

At the wide receiver position, Ahmmon Richards will be returning for his junior year. Expectations are high as he spent the last season hampered by a nagging hamstring injury. However, after a promising freshman year, Richards looks to bounce back and help lead the Hurricanes to another bowl game.

On the defensive end of the field, Jaquan Johnson (Safety) and Shaquille Quarterman (Linebacker) will spearhead the defense. With even more experience, the sky's the limit for this Hurricanes defense.

Training camp should be very intriguing this year. With competition at every position, this will be one of the most competitive offseasons in recent years.

The players that are headlining the incoming recruiting class are:

Brevin Jordan (Tight end)

Las Vegas, NV

Bishop Gorman HS

Nesta Silvera (Defensive tackle)

Plantation, FL

American Heritage HS

Lorenzo Lingard (Running back)

Orange City, FL

University HS

Al Blades Jr. (Cornerback)

Fort Lauderdale, FL

Saint Thomas Aquinas HS

Jarren Williams (Quarterback)

Lawrenceville, GA

Central Gwinnett HS

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
