The incident has sparked outrage among many assistants who recruit the Miami area. Three assistants, none of whom has ties to the University of Florida, said the Hurricanes have become pariahs in the recruiting world.

“It’s bull----,” said one assistant, “Miami bumps and talks to kids more than anybody. They’ve started a war. They better watch out. You started messing with livelihoods and s--- is going to get dirty.”

Said another assistant: “Nobody trusts Miami right now. You don’t even want to shake hands with them.”

“There’s a lot of street people in Miami," one of the assistants said. "How do you think they feel about what the University of Miami did to Joker Phillips?”

LOL at UF, who btw has a long and storied tradition of negative
Recruiting under Muschamp, complaining about UM recruiting tactics. Don't be mad that you are getting straight handled by Golden and Co. on the recruiting trail.

I call BS....when the story about Joker Phillips came out, ESPN talked to several coaches and they all said UF should have been turned in because it was so blatant.

exactly. the guy wouldn't have been fired if he was in the gray area. not to mention crying about getting turned in by a rival is absurd. knowing the problems we have with street agents you can't touch nobody is going to let a coaching staff illegally poach recruits in their own backyard and not blow the whistle.

1. Miami feeling backlash after allegedly turning in Florida

For a generation of fans, Miami football was synonymous with bravado, showboating and four national championships in the 1980s and '90s. Football historian Beano Cook called the Hurricanes the “greatest dynasty since Caesar,” and the swagger of The U has been immortalized over the years.

That reputation has faded in the 13 years since Miami’s last national title. But while the specter of the Nevin Shapiro scandal is finally leaving the program, the 'Canes have been branded with a label unthinkable during their heyday: Snitch.

According to sources, Miami gave information to the NCAA last spring about then-Florida wide receivers coach Joker Phillips committing alleged recruiting violations. That prompted an ongoing investigation into Phillips, who resigned in June for “personal reasons.” The alleged incident involved a violation of the “bump rule” with wide receiver Calvin Ridley, the Miami area’s top recruit who is committed to Alabama.​

The “bump rule” prohibits coaches from talking to a recruit in person beyond a greeting during an evaluation period. If the alleged violations involving Phillips are substantiated, Gators coach Will Muschamp could be suspended one game under a rule that makes head coaches accountable for certain transgressions of their assistants.

Violations of the “bump rule” are common but rarely reported. Miami coach Al Golden declined to comment through an athletic department spokesman.

The incident has sparked outrage among many assistants who recruit the Miami area. Three assistants, none of whom has ties to the University of Florida, said the Hurricanes have become pariahs in the recruiting world.

​“It’s bull----,” said one assistant, “Miami bumps and talks to kids more than anybody. They’ve started a war. They better watch out. You started messing with livelihoods and s--- is going to get dirty.”

Said another assistant: “Nobody trusts Miami right now. You don’t even want to shake hands with them.”

Miami is widely regarded as one of the most difficult cities to navigate in recruiting because of the proliferation of opportunistic high school coaches, middlemen and agents. Miami’s attempt to clean up has made it stand out.

“There’s a lot of street people in Miami," one of the assistants said. "How do you think they feel about what the University of Miami did to Joker Phillips?”

One prominent high school coach in Miami said he believes the Hurricanes are fighting back after getting pummeled by negative recruiting following the Shapiro scandal. “They were taking a beating in recruiting and couldn’t fight back in any way,” said the coach. “What took place is they fought back. Joker could have just been collateral damage in the whole thing.”

SI is a joke. It's like Forbes. Was a great magazine before the internet and never quite adapted to the digital age. Tries to pretend it has integrity but when you add a puff piece like the one by Lebron that seems like it could have come from the homer Windhorst, it's hard for anyone to actually take the magazine seriously anymore
 
We took the remote control back from them, and now they're crying like the bytches they'll always be.

LULZ at those ***** thinking they should walk into our backyard and fck with us while we sit back and take it. The dirty games with Powell must have broke the camel's back .

****, Miami is really ****ing off a lot of people, our recruiting is really suffering...stupid article SI still hating on The U, what's new
 
Wait..... So they are mad because Miami is reporting the street agents and guys who are going AGAINST NCAA rules?

If your "livelihood" depends on selling HS kids that's a YOU problem, not Miami problem.

At the end of the day this won't have much impact because Miami has #1 class for 2016. And are favorites to win the coastal division.

Interesting. Top 15 2015 recruiting class and expected to climb. Consensus #1 2016 recruiting class and expected to get better. Landing the locals more often now. So basically...they mad
 
give me a break. UF was neg recruiting on the NCAA thing more than anyone. FSU was like the only who didnt according to people i know of who were being recruiting.

Perhaps we should ask them about Brandon Powell and the dead period....

I think they should. Collage coaches can still call high school coaches and they can still DM prospects on twitter and facebook during the dead period. Prospects can call coaches during the dead period. It is not hard to get in contact with a prospect within the rules during the dead period.
