    Local or National? A look at Miami Recruiting (2010-2015)

    They would have jumped at a lot of offers. It’s hard to evaluate everyone in a big state like Texas. It’s even more difficult the further away you get and the less relationships you have. And if you find a good one in the HUDL era, it’s hard to keep him a secret. That’s why our OOS players...

    National kids use Miami as a placeholder, too. Daran Branch dropped us as soon as he got SEC offers. Look at how Romello Height played us. I agree with focusing on big cities out of state. There is less competition and it is a cultural fit. But we will have the same problems everywhere until we...

    Those guys got here after the sample period. So we'll need to update this list in a couple years.

    Local or National? A look at Miami Recruiting (2010-2015)

    There's been some talk about expanding the recruiting board to a more national focus. Our board is already national at QB and TE, as it should be given the nature of those positions. But what about the rest of the board? I went and looked at our classes from 2010 to 2015 to see how the South...
