Jeff Thomas - Announcing Wednesday 10AM on ESPNU

In what should be good exposure for Mark Richt and the Canes on signing day, Thomas will announce his decision his decision live on ESPNU from his school. Thomas was Miami's to lose heading into the weekend and the fact that he cancelled his Oregon OV is even more of a signal that the Canes are in good shape. The last wide receiver to pick Miami on ESPNU? Stacy Coley.

Mike Harley - Announcing Wednesday 10:15 AM on CBS Sports' National Signing Day Special

Harley to Miami is the worst-kept secret out there at this point, but it's another nationally-televised announced which Richt has to love. The speed that him and Thomas would bring is just what the doctor ordered.

C.J. Henderson - Announcing Noon Wednesday at Columbus - CanesInSight will be live on-site

Everything that I've heard with Henderson points to him signing with Miami on signing day. Late last week, sources said that the Columbus speedster had informed all staffs recruiting him (Miami, UF, Alabama) of his decision. A source close to Henderson told me last that nothing had changed since then and unless something changes, it will be the Hurricanes. This could end up being the biggest snag for Miami down the stretch just based on the battle itself. Not only were the Gators in the lead for a substantial portion of time, but this is a guy who Nick Saban wanted badly at cornerback.

Brian Edwards - Announcing Wednesday at Miramar (Time TBD) - CanesInSight will be live on-site

Edwards went through with his scheduled visit to UF this weekend, but Miami is still in position to land his signature come Wednesday morning. Not only is his family fully on-board with the Hurricanes, but the combined recruiting effort of Mike Rumph and Ephraim Banda won Edwards over last week, according to sources. Florida is not confident on their chances either. Side note: Miami loved Edwards' attitude and demeanor on the official visit last weekend and defensive coaches believe he will see the field early and often next season.

Jhavonte Dean - Announcing Wednesday and Blinn Junior College (Time TBD)

Dean has been a heavy Canes lean since early December and nothing has changed. Anything other than Miami would be a surprise for the south Florida native.

Jordan Pouncey - Announcing Wednesday via commitment video on Twitter (Time TBD)

The latest buzz here has been Texas and I'm not sure this is a decision that Canes coaches will lose much sleep over. It does not appear that he has been a priority for the staff and they are satisfied with a receivers class of Evidence Njoku, Thomas, and Harley.

If all that comes to pass it will be hard to throw any stones.

Absolutely love this class with the ol and db group being IMO each As anda dynamic wr core
 
CJ,Thomas & Harley

Speed kills !

Special teams unit should be much improved

Great class if we finish like this..
No mention of smith should tell you he won't be in the class IMO
 
With Henderson, Dean, Bandy and Edwards at CB that leaves DeeJay all WR IMO. No need for Pouncey if we land Harley, Thomas, and Njoku because DJ will slide in at WR. And I believe we will land at 3-4 studs WR next year. He will especially be needed there during the spring. And I'm good with that, DeeJay needs the ball in his hands IMO, electric kid.

Listen Golden slurper can you name a worse WR class than Harley and njoku ( if Thomas doesn't qualify)? That's what I thought. Everyone still hates you go order a steak burnt already.

Golden slurper? Stfu with that dumbsh*t I posted threads and screenshots of me clearly wanting golden gone. Did the 2014 and 2015 receiving recruiting class slip your peanut for a brain head a55?

Everyone knows why even deny at this point. You are the worst porster on this site by a long shot.

rinse repeat, come up with something new sh*t for brains
Broke derailing another thread. It's one thing to do this in one of the hundreds of meaningless threads on here, but to do it to Pete and The Work is a crime against humanity and should result in you being sent to the stockade.

Go back to fear mongering about the recruitments of Edwards and Henderson since you on that "i don't trust them" stance
 
If Thomas fails to qualify this would be the worst WR class in UM history.

Stfu, quit trolling

Listen Golden slurper can you name a worse WR class than Harley and njoku ( if Thomas doesn't qualify)? That's what I thought. Everyone still hates you go order a steak burnt already.

2015 class was just Cager. That would be worse than this class. 2014 class was Berrios, Brady, and Langham so basically Berrios. Would have to think that is worse than this class also.
 
If Thomas fails to qualify this would be the worst WR class in UM history.

Evidence Njoku is already about 6'6", runs a high 4.4/low 4.5 (he says 4.49 I believe), and also just got bumped to 4 stars on 247. He is going to be a STUD here. Harley definitely needs to get bigger, but once he adds size, he has great speed and will force defenses to respect the deep ball (he won't even be the only WR to have that element). Not to mention Deejay Dallas will play a lot in the slot, especially if we land Henderson and Edwards.

Not the BEST haul, but certainly far from the worst of all-time. On top of that, it seems most are now saying Thomas will qualify. If Mullins was able to get in last year, then Thomas will be fine. I just hope he can get here earlier than Mullins did so he has a better chance to learn the playbook, get in the weight room, etc.

The conspiracy theory regarding Smith is ridiculous. What do you expect Pete or his sources to say about a recruit that bailed on his OV other than he is not coming?

Clearly, the staff is disappointed, but Smith is not going to tell them the reason he is going elsewhere aside from that he felt another school was a better fit.
 
Would be a good but not great finish to the class, can't really complain. Overall this class has some ballas in it.

Good but not great finish?..... the fvck you smoking?

Jeff Thomas 4star
Chris Henderson 4star
Kai Leon Herbert 4star
Mike Harley 4star
Jhavontae dean 4star
Brian Edwards 3star
Within a span of a week?

That would be miamis strongest close in years

If it does play out this way on Wednesday I would have to agree.
It would be the strongest finish in a long time and a very good class overall.
Can't see how anyone could reasonably argue with that.
 
If anyone said 1 month ago that we would get herbert, edwards harley and henderson he would have been crucified.

This is an amazing close. We should be ecstatic. One more year and if we can recruit next year like this witha better Local talent we be back in full
