@DMoney do you retain the same value from us clicking into the video or watching the entire video? Happy to do either to support, but for the ADHD patrons of this board, if clicking into it is all that's necessary, that may help to communicate.

Video is better but I am adjusting some things so that text works fine for the ads. We want people getting the news.

  • Last Tuesday, I said that Miami was very confident on Samson Okunlola and Rueben Bain. Today, they are both Canes. The next name to watch is Mark Fletcher. He is visiting this weekend and Miami feels very good. Florida had the momentum coming out of last week’s visit, but the last visit is huge and communication is going very well. Fletcher is a huge piece to the class- one of the best overall football players in Florida who is built like the Terminator. Don’t be surprised if Miami also adds a RB in the Portal.
  • The focus of WR will be transfers. Don’t’e Thornton (Oregon transfer) is visiting this weekend and provides a deep ball threat, with a career YPC over 20 yards. This is not a done deal- Thornton is going through the process and needs to be recruited. But the visit and prior relationship is encouraging. Grant Dubose (Charlotte transfer) is a potential NFL player and there is heavy mutual interest. However, because he already used his transfer from Miles College to Charlotte, he needs to graduate and then enroll as a grad transfer in the summer. Miami also expects additional names to jump in the Portal in the next month or so based on trends from last year.
  • Javion Cohen (Alabama transfer) is one of the best guards in the country and is visiting this weekend. I continue to like the Canes here. Miami wants competition at guard and Ben Scott (Arizona State transfer) is being evaluated. The OL class looks solid- Tommy Kinsler is the only concern because of location, but he is talking and acting like a Cane.
  • There is a strong chance Reid Mikeska flips to South Carolina, where he is visiting this weekend. Miami is monitoring Moliki Matavao (Oregon transfer) as a potential Portal addition. He was the #5 TE in 2021 and had good film this year.
  • Miami will add 1-2 big DT bodies in the Portal to replace Darrell Jackson and Jordan Miller. Ahmad Moten (2022 signee) improved as much as anyone throughout the season, as we saw on the goalline stand versus Pittsburgh. He will have a chance. Thomas Gore (Georgia State transfer) is visiting this weekend. Miami is trying to get bigger across the board, which makes Gore an unusual offer as an undersized DT. But the explanation was simple—“he is too good.” They don’t want to miss on the next Calijah Kancey, and Gore (a twitchy former wrestler) has been one of the most disruptive interior linemen in the nation. Miami is also continuing to work on Enow Ettah (Michigan commit out of Texas).
  • Someone inside the Hecht told me Reuben Bain was the most important commit in the class- an “alpha” who “legitimizes this class locally.” He is already on the phone with uncommitted prospects.
I will continue to dig on the defensive backs like the Brown Brothers.
Awesome!!!
 
This is great work. It is funny how @DMoney seems to have a permanent grin on his face when discussing UM recruiting. Its almost as though things are going so well that when UM says it wants someone, UM can get that player. In the past he makes a predictions, it doesn’t work out and our own knuckleheads ***** that our insiders are useless and know nothing. But now they are geniuses all of a sudden?
The truth is that our insiders have always been good, but they were giving info from a university and program that could not back it up.

UM has gone from “we really wanted player X, BUT, he chose university ____ BECAUSE ______”
Now is it “we believe will win the battle for player X”.
And this results in a permanent grin during 9 minutes of the video bank.

Last thing. Stop complaining that this is a video and not written. I too prefer the written form because i can read it in 60 seconds as opposed to 9 minutes. But its only fair that the people who do the work and bring you great content have the right to make some money off their labor. You can’t advertise on written content. So support the video bank because it will give @DMoney the ability to do this for longer and keep bringing us free INSIDER info.
I may be the only one who likes the video. @DMoney has the show biz gene.

See Georgia is a terrible example. They have a roster littered with the best talent at almost every position. We are at least 2 years away from that being possible. See Mich, See TCU, See oSu having a blue chip QB is a much easier route. The Stetson Bennett days are far and few between. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Even the most logical Emory fans can admit he's not competing for playing time soon and are we expecting PONCE to coach him up? 🤔
You made the point . UGA is loaded at every position except QB. Thats how you build sustainable dominance when you don't have to hinge on one player. Bama won several titles with qbs who don't play on Sundays. Same formula from our 2001 team. It's not rocket science

Agree wholeheartedly, reminds me of a young Al Pacino in “Cruising”
