Miami quarterback commit Brad Kaaya landed in Miami today for this weekend’s opening camp. Kaaya won’t officially make Coral Gables his home until next year, but he’s already doing something that most Miami natives don’t: enjoying Marlins games.
“I was at the Marlins game tonight and checked it out so that was cool. It was pretty exciting because I’m used to Dodger games and those aren’t very lively. I met Giancarlo Stanton before the game and that was pretty cool because I’ve always been a fan of his since he’s from my area and went to Notre Dame High School, which is my rival school,” said Kaaya.
What does he have planned for Saturday before the camp on Sunday?
“I’ll probably go to the school and chill with Coach Coley, watch some film with him, and show my mom around the campus. She’s met Coach Coley before, but she’s just looking forward to checking out the facilities and campus that I’ll be spending the next four years of my life at.”
Kaaya is coming to Miami with a different mission than his last visit a couple months back.
“All of my questions were answered the first time I was there and that’s why I committed. There’s nothing really new I’m looking for, but I just want to make contact with some of the other recruits from down here and actually meet them in person as opposed to messaging them on Facebook and Twitter.”
How have things changed for the Cali gunslinger since he’s committed to Miami?
“I feel like a lot of things I do are under a microscope. I just have to watch and say what I do and can’t tweet anything bad.”
Kaaya is excited for one thing in particular on Sunday.
“I’m looking forward to throwing to a lot of these receivers that Miami’s recruiting and show them what I can do.”
There are a coupe prospects that Kaaya is looking forward to meeting in person this weekend.
“I don’t know if Dan Gresham is going to the camp, but I’m definitely looking forward to meeting him. He really likes Miami and I’ve been talking to him on Facebook. He loves Coach Coley and Golden because they don’t think about him as just a fullback, but a versatile running back. The other one I want to meet is Johnnie Dixon, I think he’s coming to the camp.”
