So close a Domino's in NW Tally can deliver a pizza to the city limits and you'd have to pay for it. As a matter of fact there's a street in Tallahassee named Thomasville Rd. Drive north on it and you'll be in Thomasville in no time...

Actually a nice city, lots of professionals
 
Ranked as the No. 2 defensive lineman and No. 12 overall recruit in the 2028 recruiting class, Che is ready to make his way to Hard Rock for the rivalry game against Florida State on Oct. 17.

“I want to see them play physical,” Che said. “I want to see the hospitality and all of that.”

Che recently named Texas A&M his leader and has already made his way out to College Station this fall.

However, the Aggies are struggling on the field, and Miami is looking to take full advantage.

“Coach (Mario) Cristobal and Coach (Jason) Taylor check up on me every day,” Che said. “I would say Miami is second-ish.”

So why did the Hurricanes make the cut?

“They reach out and make sure I’m good,” Che said. “The coaching staff is excited to see me get out there. They are always checking up on me. That’s why they made my top schools.”

Che added that Miami’s defensive line production and development were other driving factors.
 
Miami also made an important impression on Thomasville (Ga.) Thomas County Central five-star defensive lineman Prince Che.

The No. 12 prospect in the Rivals Industry Rankings made his first trip to Coral Gables for the Florida State game. Che spent time with the coaching staff, received considerable attention and came away impressed with what the Hurricanes have to offer.

The visit was an important step for Miami, but the bigger development involves the overall direction of his recruitment.

Texas A&M has generated significant buzz as the program to beat for Che. There has been confidence around the Aggies, but that confidence has softened a little.

Based on conversations with multiple sources and the feedback coming out of Miami’s weekend, the Hurricanes have made a legitimate move.

Georgia
remains heavily involved too, and Florida is another program to monitor. Location could become an important factor for Che as he weighs his options, with several programs closer to home than Texas A&M.

Miami’s defensive line development, coaching relationships and continued pursuit give the Hurricanes a compelling pitch. Che has only visited Miami once, but I don’t expect it to be his last trip.

Texas A&M remains a major factor, and I’m not ready to move Miami ahead of the Aggies. Still, the gap may not be as significant as it appeared earlier in the month.

Miami has entered this race in a meaningful way.
