Miami visited Jhavonte Dean today

Dec 4, 2016

Miami's push for junior college cornerback Jhavonte Dean (Blinn College) is heating up. CanesInSight reported yesterday that Miami would be visiting Dean for the second time of the contact period this week. Defensive coordinator Manny Diaz stopped by his school last week and there was another coach there with him today.

I can confirm that the Canes sent safeties coach Ephraim Banda out to see Dean -- the two met today. He is not an early enrollee, so his visit is most likely coming in January, Dean told CanesInSight.

One more nugget -- if it gets to the point where Mark Richt will go in-home with Dean (as expected), look for that to take place when Dean is back home in Miami with his family. He is originally from South Dade.

Wish we had the depth to say "see ya" to this guy, but unfortunately the previous staff didn't think CB was an important position. We desperately need to flip him.

I'm not buying any of these cats left on the boards **** until they sign.

Some of will end up here, but I'm not even trying to guess which ones.

@DMoney I know you said you weren't worried.

Is this a smokescreen to build suspense?

Able,
You are a seasoned vet with a well-honed BS meter. Did that sound like a kid who is signing with Alabama?

From everything I've heard, Alabama doesn't want a JUCO corner anymore. Dean is trying to save face and build suspense. Cane.

I feel the same way.

It's pretty evident that Bama has moved on. It's the same thing we did with Dingle, but at least Dingle was wise to know what was going on so he gave himself some time to look at better options.

I get the Bama thing. I don't like it, but I at least understand it. Kids want to play for championships. But "all even with Utah and Arizona State"? Reading that makes my balls hurt.

That quote takes the article from kinda maybe sorta believable to complete and utter bull**** status.

One thing i will say with this staff is I get irritated with the hype tweets on official visit weekends and then appear to have little substance. With that being I still definitely believe we are getting dean

Are coaches not supposed to show excitement when hosting recruits?

Feeling the same way. He's one of the most obvious flips you're going to see and him waiting this long you know he wants some suspense even though everybody believes he's coming here. There's a reason he used the site to do this

How do you know what recruits are telling the staff? Just because they are not saying what you want to hear in interviews means nothing.

Go to Alabama and maybe win a Natty playing Strong Bench

Or

Start at Miami for 2 years, most likely play for an ACC title or more. Get national exposure playing behind a young and stacked front 7, and get drafted/ have an NFL career.

Tough decision

Kid from SoFla with family on the staff treating us like a 2nd rate biznatch wanting to go play in Tuscaloosa after they ignored his *** the last month. Pathetic.
