When you look at the receivers that succeed in the NFL, they share several common traits: work ethic, hands, play strength, and sharp routes. Miami signee Daylyn Upshaw (Phenix City, AL) checks all of these boxes. At 6’, 180 pounds, Upshaw combines a sturdy frame with explosive quicks out of breaks. He has been extremely productive for Central High School, accumulating over 2,100 yards the past two seasons with 31 TDs and a state title.

Upshaw, who is coached by former Miami OC Pat Nix, is a composite three-star player with offers from Auburn, Arkansas and Florida. His playing style compares to former Miami Hurricane Allen Hurns.

I agree. He was my favorite recruit on offense from last year’s class. Kid is a baller. It’s coaching malpractice that he’s barely seen the field here.

Dont worry Jojo will give him more opportunities, he's the best teammate

Said it a few times but the offense with tempo with Pringle, upshaw, Moore and Toney is pretty good and something you can build on if we had a creative OC

The **** talent has been sitting there waiting

He brought some juice on that play.

These young bulls we’ve been recruiting have some juice I’ll say that much, if we can finally hit on a STUD HS QB (Coleman

) or give that JKS dude from CAL a Blank Check we could make a multi year run. Fitzgerald, Pringle, Moore,Upshaw, Lowe, all already showing potential. Toney is a superstar

Not sure he has the speed or athletic traits but if he can catch the ball then put him in over #1

Not saying next year but Coleman is the truth. And he is pure Cane.
