Miami's prized QB commit Brad Kaaya was offered by hometown UCLA yesterday, which has caused some Hurricanes fans to worry about the level of his commitment. Brad will not be doing any interviews for now regarding recruiting in order to focus on his senior season, so here is an official statement from his mother, Angela Means-Kaaya, on the status of her son's commitment to Miami:
"Brad is committed to The University of Miami. It is a great staff and a great opportunity for him to become a man away from home. It's his decision, but he'd like to get through his senior season. UCLA had very valid reasons why they didn’t invite Brad to the dance, we get it. But now Brad is in the middle of a very important season that needs his attention. In essence, he's a ‘Cane that just got another offer. He's not running out of a door to run into another one. He has some HS football to play."
