Miami will in-home with five-star Smith this week

Nov 30, 2016

The Miami Hurricanes will make an in-home visit with five-star wide receiver target Devonta Smith later this week, a source told CanesInSight.

Miami will also get Smith on campus for an official visit -- that date will be set after the in-home.

The Louisiana native Smith is also considering Alabama and LSU. Ron Dugans has developed a strong relationship with Smith, who becomes even more of a priority after Jeremiah Holloman is now off the board.

Smith is a superior prospect.

Hollimon's handling of his recruiting leads me to believe he is mentally weak and will be a bust.

Not sour grapes.

Hollimon committed to Michigan then decommitted.

He told Miami he was committed on his trip.

He cancels his in home visit with Miami the day of visit.

I've followed recruiting for 25 years. Kids that act this way end up as busts most of the time.

Nah. His problem is that hes a mommas boy & his mom's is pulling the strings. She's trying to usexplain him to get a free ship for her other son who sucks.

But if he came here we would be on his dik.......lol

If we flipped juedy he would suck cause he flipped and caused drama. Lol at some of the **** some of yall write man.

If u don't like the prospect don't like him from the beginning don't change a tune cause he didn't choose us.

Cannot miss on every single premier WR target (Jeudy/Holloman/Smith). Massive red flag if we can't pull blue-chip receivers when Richards is the only proven difference maker at the position on the roster.

This all this

Huge red flags at db and wr

Rick had huge problems consistently signing top WRs at UGA too. Everyone points to AJ Green. But that's all they can come up with in 15 years.

And please don't hit me with a list of scrub *** WRs that he got and pretend they were top guys. He needs to keep grinding and get Smith or Jeudy, and that will erase the fail on WR this cycle.

He has to get one of not it's a Huge fail.....I agree with u. Horrible

How does this happen in sfla??? I can get a kid to go to miami

Think you're missing the point. It's how these kids conduct themselves during their recruitment. More often than not, when a kid's recruitment becomes a spectacle, the kid's career as a collegiate football player ends up being a dud. Happened with Keith Bryant - kid was a high 4-star DT and one of the most coveted recruits in South Florida. Kid's going to go into his 5th year at FSU and still barely see the field as he's been passed up on the depth chart.

Holloman's latest stunt is putting him in those waters. It would've been one thing had he had all of his OV's and made his decision on UGA. But he and his family canceled on Richt while he was in town as opposed to just telling him in advance don't bother flying over here.

Apparently the 4-star wideout isn't being offered by USC and he and Echols are cousins. Apparently DJ Johnson knows Echols and is trying to recruit him. The wideout is only 5'9, but I'd take him at this point given our need at receiver.

It's the new era most kids are divas because of Twitter. I really don't care about this kid my thing is we got an elite staff and can't pull home grown players. It's a huge red .....every time this time of year we get gassed because the sec school put the full court press on. And the schools backing those staffs are lethal with the duffels

I don't know if ur saying that to me or others but me,personally I think the kid is a beast & I got no problem with him. Maybe we got different interpretations of the word mama's boy. I don't mean that as disrespect at all. Actually it shows he was raised with some values. Kids these days are far more common to have no respect for parents or elders let alone be concerned about pleasing them. I do feel it's sad on her part that she ain't letting her son live his life. If everything was even & that's how he felt than sure do you but knowing he wants to play here & she won't let him without a free ship for the brother that I have zero respect for.

How about the fact a kid might want to stay home because for the last 15 years he saw a UGA team that was nationally respected. SO Flo kids were leaving because UM was a joke.

If we pull a class of Smith, Dingle, and Njoku we will be in good shape. With Richards, Cager, Berrios, Mullins, Harris on the roster now, I think we will be just fine!

Who's the speedster of that bunch?

Is Smith a burner? because the rest of the guys on that list have good, not great, speed.

I've seen the kid & hunter play several times now. I don't like just throwing **** at the wall but buddy really reminds me of roscoe but more physical at this point. 100% a take. Slide right into Sam's spot

Sure that makes plenty of sense too but it has zero to do with this situation. This is all about the brother getting a free ride from any of the six schools he zeroed in on. Ever since his brother got a barely acceptable sat score he's been a necessary piece schools have to take according to his mother. That's not how he feels.

If we snag Harley or that other 4star coming with Echols from Cali they are both fast.

Smith has elite speed that can easily take the top off the D.

^^^^ exactly and it doesnt mean Dugan is a weak recruiter when Hollomans Mom obviously played a big role in his decision. Im just glad were in recruting battles for out of state blue chippers and they are really considering us. On to the next one

You're glad we're wasting our time trying to recruit out-of-state guys who have no real interest in coming here? Are you an idiot?

Hes not coming. You all saw it with Holloman. If we don't play the game... We won't land top recruits. UGA wasn't gonna f that up. You only cancel in home visits when bags get dropped and when your criminal brother gets a free ride

Does Juedy have a younger brother we can offer right now? Sux that elite kids stay home to play their local schools, but the SFL flee like the woods are on fire. Why not stay home a be a part of building something at home? Play in front of your mama and grandmamma. Not mad at Holloman, but he handled this situation like a b*tch.
