"In their final season alone, Mesidor totaled 12.5 sacks and 17.5 tackles for loss, while Bain put up 9.5, 15.5, and threw an interception in there to boot."
"That defense was flat-out elite, and this duo on the edge was a central reason why."
"If you've been following him as a prospect, you've surely heard about his arm length problem by now. He measured in at the combine with sub-31″ arms, which is simply put, historically short for a pass-rush prospect."
Akheem Mesidor and Rueben Bain Jr. joined the Miami Hurricanes in 2022, combining for 49 sacks and 75.5 tackles for loss from 2023-2025. In their final season, Mesidor recorded 12.5 sacks and Bain 9.5 sacks, contributing to the team's National Championship run. Both players are projected as likely first-round NFL picks. Bain's arm length, measuring under 31 inches, raises concerns among NFL teams, potentially affecting his draft stock despite his impressive collegiate performance.
