Miami football defensive linemen Akheem Mesidor and Leonard Taylor and safety Kamren Kinchens have been named in the top 100 2023 players nationally by On3. Kinchens, Mesidor and Taylor will anchor the Miami defense that has new coordinator Lance Guidry calling the plays in 2023.
Kinchens is ranked the 29th-best player nationally, Taylor is 37th and Mesidor 89th. Charles Power of On3 said, “Kamren Kinchens is a highly instinctive, heady safety who is the key driver behind Miami’s defense.” Kinchens was a first-team All-ACC and an All-American in 2022.
