Mark Matthews

Miami is still the frontrunner here

Jatori Williams

wouldn’t be surprising to see Williams end up in the class.

Jackson Roper
Gus Corsair
Reed Ramsier
Reiss Russell
Will Slagle
Tyler Ford

Of that group, Ford is definitely a name Miami values. He was just on campus last week and has locked in an official visit for June 5.

Jordan Agbanoma

He did not make it in for his previously scheduled visit this weekend but may make a trip next weekend.

Oluwasemilore Olubobola
Jimmy Kalis
Joshua Sam-Epelle

All three have visited this spring.

Kelsey Adams Jr
has not been on campus this spring but is set to make an official visit to Miami on June 12.

DJ Dotson
Conner Rutherford

visited for the Spring Ball Splash event and are on the radar.

 
Just preparing everyone here that Mark Matthews is not the slam dunk that insiders are claiming he is. Yeah, I think we have a good shot but if Miami was the choice, it would be done already. The big factor in all this is Jason Taylor honestly. His presence and opinion are highly valued by the family and Mark. But it could go away from us, and I know it would be a devastating loss.

What makes you say that? Do you know the family? Seems to me like he's just going through the process and taking visits

Talked with someone close to the situation. I'm not saying we are not going to get him, just he could easily trend away from us. You are right he is doing his HW for sure, but I just feel like everyone acts like we got this and it's not going to be that easy. I have concerns but I know Mario is relentless and won't stop grinding.

I feel when confidence level is high for big dog recruits like it is for Matthews it hasn’t bode well for us recently: Pickett, cooper, etc

Difference here is o line but I do agree the recruitments seem similar to those mentioned above

I never have that attitude with recruiting - it's a vicious battle and really unpredictable. This kid is a top 5 player in the country. Everyone is after him and will be throwing crazy offers his way.

The thing is, if we don't get him, I think we have some really good other options on OL.
