The Miami Hurricanes 2016 recruiting class is already off to an unbelievable start. Highlighted by three huge commitments from local wide receivers Sam Bruce, Dionte Mullins, and Dredrick Snelson, the 'Canes are sure to have a massive haul at the position.
But with so many talented receivers to choose from in the 2016 class, the 'Canes will not stop recruiting the position. Many would expect the 'Canes to sign up to five or six premier receivers in the class.
One of those possible signees is 6-foot-5, 195-pound stud, Freddie Pinder, out of Southridge High School. Miami was the first to offer Pinder in the spring and since then he has picked up offers from Louisville, West Virginia, South Carolina, Clemson, and Cincinnati.
Pinder says those offers made him even hungrier to prove that he is the real deal and that he had to push himself that much harder in summer conditioning.
"Me and my team were conditioning the whole summer," said Pinder. "Up until about a week ago when practice started we were conditioning and working on us. We are just focused on playing together and playing smart and that we are ready to go."
Now that the season has officially started, Pinder is focused on helping his team reach their goals and already has one game in particular he cannot wait for.
"It's my job to try and bring everybody together and just play for one another. I can't be selfish you know. I have to try and help everybody. That's what I'm focused on and I think that will help us get to where we want to be which is the state finals," said Pinder.
"For me I cannot wait until the Coral Gables game. They beat us last year and that stings. They are one of the teams that has been talking the most and that really just motivates us the most," Pinder added.
Being that he is one of the best underclassmen in the country, Pinder is hearing from a multitude of schools, but the hometown Hurricanes are the ones who stay in contact with him the most.
"Miami is definitely talking to me the most. I mean they are my leader because of their really great program. Every time I go down there they make me feel at home for sure. The coaches always bring me in and show me a lot of love."
When asked when he plans to commit, Pinder said more than likely after his junior season. So what would it take for a school to land Pinder's services.
"Facilities and my relationship with the coaches is big to me. I'm trying to go somewhere the coaches love me on and off the field," said Pinder.
