For whatever the reason, a lot of 2024 recruits committed elsewhere because they were unsure if the program was/is headed in the right direction. Mario's strategy for getting an elite class is to prove on the field that change is happening and then flip them. Definitely a high risk, high reward proposition as flipping is never guaranteed and the odds aren't great.
Seen discussion on various threads of recruits that could/might be flipped with a good season.

Flipped Elsewhere
Here's the collection (so far)
I didn't forget about these names. I don't think they're flippable or I don't think we'll try to flip them.
CB recruiting remains a mystery. Gaby said
Given that we know we're trying to flip a major CB target, these are names that should be candidates that we're trying to flip, but as of now, no public indication we're trying to flip them.

| CB | UGA | D$ says if we have a good season, we could be cooking with fire here. | |
| S | Bama | Flipped from F$U to Bama. D$ says Miami hasn't given up | |

[Beyond Ellis Robinson IV, there is a] Major blue chip name Miami is working to flip
Given that we know we're trying to flip a major CB target, these are names that should be candidates that we're trying to flip, but as of now, no public indication we're trying to flip them.
| Recruit | Position | School | Recruitment Status |
| CB | L$U | @Memnon expects L$U to have significant issues this season which could open the door here. | |
| CB | Oregon | His teammate 25 4* CB Kevyn “Kerm” Humes is visiting. Maybe that opens a window? | |
| CB | Gators | Putting him here because it makes sense. So far, no signs the staff agree with us. | |
| CB | PSU | Visited earlier in the year and the Canes were thought to have momentum. |
