I don't have a problem planting a flag at Montverde and IMG. However, gotta keep in mind that all of the out of state players going there have been placed there by other coaches/programs with the intent that those kids will go back to them when there 4 years of HS are up. That's why I'm big on...

I guess we'll know soon enough. If he plays basketball this spring/summer it could get very interesting. Crazy money being offered on the basketball side of things.

Most of Calvary kids have come from the tri-county area. Cilk is doing a great job there. Keep an eye out for schools like Columbus and Westminster. They've got some young talent coming up

I'm tryin' to tell y'all. This kid is the goods. Will be interesting to see if he picks football or basketball. 👀

There's another 2026 kid Miami should also be recruiting in basketball. Calvin "CJ" Russell. He's a 2-sport star in basketball and football at Miami Northwestern. Not sure if we've offered him in football yet, but considering he's a local 5-star on the gridiron I'm assuming it's only a matter of...

Make no mistake about it, Miami's basketball offer was a token offer. Miami wanted him for football and basketball staff played nice by telling him what he wanted to hear. Everyone in Daytona thought Hinson would end up in the NFL one day. Was a legit 2-sport star in HS. I can understand why...

Keep an eye on Alex Constanza (6'8" Wing 2026 Westminster Academy). He might be one of the top 2-3 prospects in Florida right now, regardless of classification.

Just making a point. There's talent in Florida. This narrative that we're only a football state needs to cease. Been saying it for years. It's nice to see our staff is finally looking at some of the local talent. GO CANES!!!

For the record, Blake Hinson is another player from the state of Florida. :cool:

Personally, I think Montas is as good as any underclassmen we have coming back next year. That being said, you can never have enough good players. Bring him in and figure it out once he's on campus. Montas is the real deal. There's a reason ol' boy Rick Pitino has made him a priority. Another...

There's a 6'6" W in Orlando, that this staff needs to get on RIGHT NOW!!!! Angel Montas (2022) is the real deal and has NBA potential written all over him.

I hope you're right. It's mind-boggling to see Larranaga refuse to go after some of the local talent. Both mid majors Miami has lost to this season have guys on their teams from Florida who we didn't recruit. Dayton has a couple who could've easily been at Miami had Larranga wanted them. Elijah...

I believe he went to Orlando Christian Prep.

Must've been playing against scrubs when you saw him. We ran in some of the same circles back then, I assure you he was NOT a baller. I repeat NOT a baller. I'll put it to you like this -- he wasn't good enough to play in any of the reputable city parks/courts on weekdays from 5pm-7pm. LOL!

20 years ago Florida wasn't producing hoopers at the rate we're seeing now. So it's understandable if coaches felt they had to go out of state for talent. With that being said, at the very least most if not all of our old teams carried at least 1 Florida kid. Since the program's resurrection in...

Only P5 state school to recruit Kai Jones before he went to prep school was fsu, but they didn't offer until he started playing at Brewster. That's about the same time all the other major in-state programs (including Miami) started getting involved. By that time it was too late. Kai was torn...

Ronnie was a helluva a baseball player in HS. And that's it. By no stretch of the imagination was or is he to ever be considered a hooper. No chance in ****. I don't want to be mean to the man, so I'll leave it at that. His older brother on the other hand was a decent hooper.

I hear ya and totally agree how crazy it is that L has only signed 4 FL kids (Tonye, Burnett, ATM & Dewan) out of HS to Miami. Larranaga seems like a nice guy and I'd love nothing more than to see him succeed but it's tough to root for someone who seems to have a blatant disregard for our...
