Monday Recruiting Chatter - 1/28

Jan 28, 2019

The Canes just had another big recruiting weekend in terms of official visits, hosting targets such as RB Mark-Antony Richards, WR George Pickens, DT Jared Harrison-Hunte, S Martin Emerson, and QB Peyton Matocha. Here’s what I was hearing coming out of the weekend.

**On Matocha: the Canes got a commitment from the Texas QB in a move that was certainly expected.

**I didn’t hear anything overly positive coming out of the weekend on either Richards or Pickens and I believe it’s status quo with the pair. While I’m told both enjoyed their visit, sources say that Miami is still trailing for both prospects. I see them both as longshots to end up at UM.

**Nothing really new, but I’ve been hearing more positive news on guys like Harrison-Hunte and Emerson coming out of the weekend. UM feels strongly that they will both be Hurricanes; I put a pick in for Emerson on Friday afternoon after hearing some good news on him from a source and I feel even better about it now. As for Harrison-Hunte, Matthew has a pretty good source close to the recruitment there, and the source feels UM locked up Harrison-Hunte this weekend. Matt and I both put in UM picks for him on Sunday.

**In a week and half, the 2019 class will be signed, sealed, and delivered, and it will officially be time to shift the focus to the rising seniors of 2020. The UM staff has gotten a head start in evaluating players for the 2020 class the past few weeks and have really been combing through a host of prospects lately to see who is worthy of offers. One name to keep an eye on that UM is evaluating is Grayson (GA) DE Jadyn Bost. The 6’3”, 250 pounder already has P5 offers from Boston College, Indiana, Ole Miss, and Rutgers. Bost also has a connection to UM, as the teammate of UM offensive lineman signee Jakai Clark at Grayson.

MAR wouldn’t be coming regardless of who our staff was. He doesn’t like our RB depth chart.

I only want MAR if he will play safety.

The whole MAR situation seems so odd to me. His brother is our biggest advocate but MAR doesn’t even seem remotely interested. Just odd. I would love for him to come here and ball in honor of his brother

Ahmon said on twitter his little brother is his own person and going to make a decision as such.

MAR seems like a great kid but as a RB prospect he'd be buried at the bottom of a depth chart filled with studs. Once Asa Martin transferred he was as good as gone. Best of luck to him, unless he goes to UF...

Bingo. But some here are already pitch forking the new staff.

Richt was MAR and the possibility of playing w his brother were his main reasons for coming.

Neither of those are possibilities now.

MAR wants immediate PT but the RB room is at capacity. He'll be a ****.

Hopefully he sees the field on 8/31, so we can remind him of his mistake. #TNM

All i care about are the ones who sign that want to be here that dont become crybabies, the True Canes at heart, if you gotta beg a player to come here, he's not a Cane. Just because their family members played here dont mean they are Canes at heart. Just like if Kair comes here, if he does you gotta respect that, shows he is his own man just like Ahmon lil brother. People on here cry to much about not getting family members, who cares, as long as we get balla's!

Ahmmon tweeted that basically MAR wants to be his own man. Similar to the Ridley brothers going to Alabama and Georgia. U have to think, he has been living in Ahmmons shadow his whole life and may want to take a different path than his brother.

Mistake at RB for MAR anyways. DB is his money position.

bogle is not coming here.
philips and hill are in if they want in (in my opinion). lets face it this is the lost class. don't want to hear about transfers etc. definitely helps a lot to get studs from the portal but we have to do a lot better in 2020.

If we win, we will. It's that simple.

No need to get upset over someone who wasn’t going to do much other than maybe return kicks and punts until his sr year.

I mean, who knows how well he’ll do at RB at the next level? These are projections. Who thought Homer would do as well as he did? If he doesn’t come to UM, best of luck to him. We have good quality depth at the position but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t have played. He could very well become a great all around back.

If UF

First mistake - going for a position that's making increasingly less money in the NFL, with shorter careers.
Second mistake - going to a school where offensive skill positions go to die at the next level.

only a truly dumb**** would say that with how our class is closing ( mostly with the portal due to not having much time but stacking chips is stacking chips.) Who gives a cluck about a kid who never had any interest in being a Cane and wants to be a RB though he is a DB really. Diaz is killing it.

pretty meh but whatever at this point.

find a way to close with DE-Boykin, DB-Emerson, DL-Hunte, OL-Washington and DB-Williams for high school kids, add OLB-Phillips, DE-Hill and the GT OL transfers and I'm more than fine with that.

this year was never gonna be recruiting year that Miami got huge boost in recruit ranks. it is always gonna be 2020 with affects from new staff I expect a top 5 class especially if Miami wins 10 or more games then I could see a top 3 class in 2020
