WR Somourian Wingo commits to Miami

The Canes regained some momentum with the commitment of four-star WR Somourian Wingo.

The 6’2, 180-pound St. Augustine native chose the Canes over Florida, South Carolina and Alabama.

As a junior, Wingo caught 65 passes for 1,040 yards (16.8 YPC) and 12 TDs and led a St. Augustine team that went 11-2 and made the semifinals of Florida’s 4A playoffs.

Wingo is a multisport athlete, averaging 16.6 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 3.1 spg and 2.5 apg and a 53.19 in the 400M on the track.

Shannon Dawson and Kevin Beard have been leading the charge on the Wingo evaluation, as they value his ability to play outside and inside. He performed very well in front of the coaches at a July 2024 Miami camp, where he competed alongside Malachi Toney, Jaime Ffrench, Nick Lennear, Calvin Russell, Jayden Petit and others.

Wingo joins Vance Spafford and Tyran Evans in Miami’s WR class.

Trader in the 1st and Lyle in the 2nd would do wonders for our recruiting.

Yeah, but who would our WR coach be? Because I know who it won't be.

If he’s 6’1 his vert must be 38’ or more because he plays like he’s 6’3. Great athlete. Can’t ever have too many of those at WR.

You are exactly right. DMoney series on our past draft classes is an excellent example that we have no clue who will end up being impactful and an NFL player (we need both in the worst way).

stack as much 4 star talent that we can find and let the ones who have the talent and work ethic rise to the top.

It was those exact posts about past recruiting classes which had me thinking about this as well.

Impossible. Recruits only choose Miami if we pay the most, and they always choose the other option if the NIL is close to even.

Sadly thats **** near true when theres a 5 star attached to the WRs name.

Same guys in here hating were the same ones saying hykeem williams was elite.

That Calvin Russell is elite.

And that Haslewood was the best wr ever when we didn’t get him.

Facts. that 5 star label works wonders

I prefer a tough, physical guy over a skinny guy who really wants to play basketball. Might be wrong.

There were hella posters on here saying losing Russell was unacceptable as if ppl were supposed to lose their job behind not landing that jit lol

Solid get and now allows the staff to go after 1 last big fish.

Mainly the same people that would be complaining if he had committed to a different team today...IMO

Will be unpopular here, but I don’t believe in overpaying out of desperation for a backup option.

I hope he balls out senior year and develops into a freak, but he has high bust potential from the film and comp I watch. I expect him to drop in the rankings as well. He’s high ceiling, low floor type.

At the same time, good to stop the bleeding and all hands on deck for Cooper. That’s someone that’s worth the overpay imo.

All that being said, welcome to the U young man and prove many of us wrong.

Football recruiting, like life, is a box of chocolates. Ya never know what you’re going to get.

my take is hes not a back up. I dont think we ever really wanted Russell but played the game. its not like Cooper who we want.
I think we wanted for Russell and then moved on. Keys is a take regardless and we will pay big for him.

Agreed. Russell is going to effing Syracuse. If we wanted him he would be committed.

I don't think they played Bolles this year. My granddaughter was in the band for SA last year so we saw him play quite a bit. Not an expert on receivers but he looked good to me. He had a good game against Heritage in the playoffs.
