Miami lands premier WR Hightower

Mar 1, 2017

The dominoes continue to fall for Miami's 2018 recruiting class, as one of the nation's premier receiver prospects Brian Hightower announced his commitment to the Hurricanes on Wednesday night.

The 6-2, 200 pound IMG Academy WR told CanesInSight on Sunday that he was waiting until June 20th to commit, but took to Twitter on Wednesday to announce those intentions a bit earlier than expected. 247sports ranks Hightower as the #6 WR in the country and #40 player nationally. He is originally from Calabasas, California.

Hightower joins Daquris Wiggins as the two receiver commits in the class and also joins his IMG teammate and quarterback Artur Sitkowski in Miami's class. The Canes are making a strong push for IMG offensive lineman Curtis Dunlap as well.

Can we institute the practice of booty gifs after big time commitments? Sounds like a "Miami" way to celebrate....

I did a story on Quadrine Hill when he was boxing out at the Wild Card here in Los Angeles and he told one time that Moore had the worst looking, non-athletic WR body that anyone had ever seen. He was cracking up when he told me that...

Worse than junior year Aldarious???

Would be huge, I thought Moore was going to be an all-American.

Well, in all fairness, Quad was long gone at that point. But Moore had a gut you could see while he was uniform, lol. Swazey-made!!

How many spots left at WR?

Already tweeting for others to join too including moore. Have to wonder if coaches want moore unlike what has been said on here. I would take moore and pope to go with wiggins and hightower and close up shop unless we can somehow pull jalen hall from the cali schools

Miami would need to have a sick 2019 class to be in the mix of a ACC Title & National Championship.

Remember, always, recruiting is a 2-year proposition. This '18 class won't be any good until the '19 season, at which point our '17 class will be the source of our team leadership and overall production.
