From the Sun Sentinel:
The local star said he started picking up on differences between Cristobal and Clemson coach Dabo Swinney, saying Swinney didn’t talk much to Joseph’s parents and Cristobal did.
“On the official visit, it didn’t feel the same,” Joseph said. “And then some other little things that kind of stood out that I was blind to because I was so in love with Clemson because Miami wasn’t doing what it’s supposed to do. They made it easy for me to leave, so I fell in love with Clemson. I kind of was blind to some of this stuff, like coach Swinney not really ever talking to my parents or picking up the phone. He never talked to my parents on the phone, not even through text, even before I committed and even after.
“Certain things like that started to stick out to me because I’ve seen coach Cristobal reaching out to my family all the time, reaching out to me all the time.”
Joseph said he has developed a close relationship with Cristobal and offensive coordinator Josh Gattis.
“Even his gameplan for me is incredible,” Joseph said. “The vision that he has for me and what he sees and the ways he can use me. Me and coach Gattis built a great relationship. We talk all the time, too. He looks out for me and he teaches me stuff and helps me better myself as a receiver.”
The newest Hurricanes commit will get an early look at what Cristobal and his staff do in their first season at Miami. Joseph said he plans to be around the program a lot this fall.
“I just can’t wait,” Joseph said. “I’m going to be at every home game. I just cant wait to see what coach Cristobal [is] bringing to Miami. Like I said, I’m a fan anyway, so I’ll be definitely in the stands, screaming like I’m a coach.”
