[lindend]

Israel Briggs

• Expectation is he picks Miami

Jae Lamar

• No pick in, will predict Mon/Tue next week

Tyran Evans

• This one is obvious, will pick Miami

Cortez Redding

• Top target is Blake Stewart but that isn't trending well. Miami in a battle there
• Miami needs to decide if they want Redding

James "JJ" Johnson

• Put pick in for Miami

Breck Kolojay

• Miami/UGA battle. Pick in for Miami.

Freddie Wilson

Heze "Superman" Kent

Jasen “JRoc” Lopez

• No pick in yet

Brayden "Quick6ix" Robinson

• Recruitment is dead.

Samari "Smoke" Matthews

• Will not Pick Miami

Brody Jennings

• Thinks Miami gets this done. Likes Miami's chances.

Blake Stewart

• Not feeling good. Thought he would commit during the spring. Miami will be sweating this one out but will continue to work this recruitment. They will not conceded with two weeks left before commitment
• Don't count Miami out in this recruitment, some parallels to Cantwell's recruitment.

Duyon "DQ" Forkpa Jr

• Expects LB board to reset, Miami looking for another Wiley Jr type recruit. Geo the least confident of all visitors last weekend.

Devin "Djack" Jackson

• UF trying to get involved again after being ignored for months, odd that he was back on campus in Canesville

Tamarion Watkins

• Expects him to pick U$Ce

LB Board

Heatherman looking all over the place at a variety of SFL LBs

Nolan Wilson

• Has PTSD with Mississippi recruits
• Long history of heartbreaking recruitments in MS
• Be leery of any buzz from MS recruits

Bryce Perry-Wright

• Miami on the outside looking in

Anthony "Tank" Jones

• Still lots of Miami buzz, but no pick in yet

Daniel Norman

• Never was considered a take, Miami still evaluating.
• Slot dependent on Anthony "Tank" Jones choice and to a lesser extent Bryce Perry-Wright

Derrek Cooper

• Likes Miami for Cooper
• Safe bet

Lamar Brown

• Discussion of L$U visit
• Doesn't think Lamar Brown will pick Miami.

Nicholas Lennear

• Best WR on Northwestern
• Ahmmon thinks he could be the #1 WR in the 27 cycle
• Discussion about reclassifying

That is about as terrible as news could get at LB. They could have just said nothing and sounded better.

 

[smack99]

LB recruiting has been pretty **** rough….

Safety discussion was pretty sobering too

Looks like another year hitting the portal unless Wiley runs away with the job this spring but probably needs a running mate next to him

@DMoney

What gives with Devin Jackson and Jasen Lopez?

These look like layups

From talking to ppl close to Devin and his dad, he received a pretty huge NIL offer from Oregon and is leaning towards them. If Miami chooses to match it, then Miami becomes a leader again. But right now we are not the favorite for him if everything stays the same.

Which of the following are you assuming (I ask because with the overall en****iffication of the defense last year I’m not sure what to think):

1) Aguirre isn’t good
2) Aguirre is so good that he leaves after this year

To me, him and Wiley is the ideal at the position for next year for the base defense, with guys like Pruitt and whoever else working in (I have no idea what’s going on with Hayes but I’m not assuming he’s available). But smarter people than me might say Aguirre actually stinks.

 

[Caneofcanes]

I really thought we would pull Kent.

Interesting. Thanks for info.

He’s a tackle. I don’t think it’s a need at all

Looking like we will be looking for another young safety next portal.

I've been expecting to hear some of the DBs we have penciled in as corners are being recruited as safeties.

 

[Cane30]

They've been adding WR's, LB's, S's and more to the board already. As always, they also will reevaluate players during their senior season. This isn't a good class for LB's, but this has been ridiculous. Forkpa would be nice, but that doesn't look good. Jackson's NIL deal is one thing, but he took a visit to UF which is very concerning, being that UF is where he originally wanted to go and we thought that relationship was done. Usual recruiting drama.

 

[Caneofcanes]

You know what homie. M & M probably already know he’s gonna outgrow that TE position. He’s a helluva athlete though.

 

[pompanocane]

Devin Jackson’s DB coach is a huge UF guy and has always pushed his players there since his Winter Park days. Just another thing to add.

 

[Invalid Username]

well

 

[AllbouttheU]

Not what you want to hear for LBs “board reset” yikes.

Also it seems **** hard work to find safeties as well.

 

[305407cane]

I really thought we would pull Kent.

The thing that always concerned me with him is usage. Would we make use a unique individual like that? If he doesn’t end up a tackle?

I compare him to that guy ole miss had peguese. And lane used him to death against ufag and it was his undoing in that game

 

[Gables Canes]

Class is looking good except at LB and Safety. Offense continues to run circles around the defense overall.
