Some probably pipe dreams, some possible. Not saying we will get all, but this would be my dream and somewhat realistic 2016 class.

QB:
Jack Allison - 6'5" 200

RB:
Deon McIntosh - 5'11" 175

Amir Rasul - 6'0" 194

WR:
Sam Bruce - 5'9" 178

Steven Newbold - 5'11" 175

Freddie Pinder - 6'5" 195

Dredrick Snelson - 6'0" 194

Binjimen Victor - 6'4" 175

TE:
Nick Eubanks - 6'6" 208

Michael Irvin Jr. - 6'2" 205

OL: I have prospects but I'm not sure on their interests, very early for OL. But since we will probably be taking 6 or more in 2015 class. I'm expect at the least 3-4 for the 2016 class.

DE:
Patrick Bethel - 6'3" 240

Brian Burns - 6'5" 215

Shavar Manuel - 6'4" 262

DT:
Aaron Thompson - 6'4" 260

I'm expecting 1-2 more to be taken. Not a lot of DT prospects for us yet for 2016.

LB:
Michael Pinckney - 6'1" 225

Donovan Thompson - 6'0" 208

Shaq Quarterman - 6'1" 242

CB:
Trayvon Mullen - 6'2" 175

Saivion Smith - 6'2" 175

Malek Young - 5'10" 175

CB/S:
Chauncey Gardner - 6'0" 190

S:
Jamel Cook - 6'3" 190

Cedrick Wright - 5'10" 190

ATH:
Joseph Jackson (DE/TE) - 6'4" 240

Dionte Mullins (WR/S) - 6'0" 180

Ahmmon Richards (WR/S) - 6'3" 175

Keyshawn "Pie" Young (RB/WR/DB) - 5'11" 185



I didn't include Brad Kaaya favorite HS target Dymond Lee cause I'm not sure yet if staff is high on him like the in state kids or if he is even as interested as Brad and Milo were/are.


Despite Brandon Johnson, and Elbre Gaiter being Cane Legacies, get the gut feeling they might not end up in the class.

Didn't include Dontye Carrier-Williams yet. Lot of hype for the moment from what I've seen, that can change though.

Didn't include Jacob Mathis at TE cause I'm not sure on his interest for Miami yet.


I didn't take into account class numbers for 2016 as well or any possible 2015 recruits that come to miami and end up in prep.



Take a crack at it.

All them WR!! :based-duke2:

2016 is the real loaded year of the WR in the state. No way we can **** up.

From Bruce, Snelson, Richards, Pinder, Salomon, Craig, Johnson, Newbold, Victor, Stove, lil Ridley, Swain, Chase, "Pie" Young, McDoom and if I'm correct Shaqs teammate forgot his name.

Some guys are gonna get left out and butthurt. Loaded year and we can't take all. Which is why I even wonder if staff would even go after Lee in Cali. 2016 is ridiculously deep at WR in the state.
 
**** I mean. You wanna talk about weapons. Kaaya, Lawson and Allison are gonna have some weapons at both the RB position and WR position.

2017 has some nice ones too. Not as loaded as 2016 but their is some nice ones at WR for 2017, Greene, Henley, Grimes, Matthews(FSU), Jeudy, Thomas, Thompson and Tigner.
 
Transfers, injuries and sometimes some guys don't always pan out. From the current crop we have on the team, whoever comes in 2015 and then the 2016 kids. It will work it's self out.

So I wouldn't mind taking a big haul at WR of them in the 2016 class. That's the year worth doing that.

Of the ones I listed though. I do have my doubts on

Rasul - He really likes LSU too, but he is litterally in our backyard at coral gables. I mean if he burns us, I would go after Fils-Aime from Naples or Tony Jones from IMG.

Victor - Conflicting reports on whether Bama or Miami leads, he also likes Ohio State and Clemson a lot. We were the first to offer, maybe it will play a factor. His teammates could end up being a package with him (Mullen and Young) and landing him and them could give us a good inside track on their stud WR teammate Greene for 2017.


Manuel - I think it's a Miami and FSU battle all the way. Either or he goes to.

Mullen - I'm not sure yet how high he is on Miami. I do know he likes Bama and Clemson.

Young - I know he likes Miami. But it's said in the past he really likes FSU a lot too.

***Who knows if Victor, Mullen, and Young even end up at the same college.

Saivion Smith - In state battle for him between Miami, FSU and UF. Maybe the IMG pipeline could play a factor.

Gardner - Previously committed and he still is interested. I could see him flip back if UF really tanks and he might interested at a possible stud filled 2016 class we could have.



All the other kids I'm very confident we can land as long as we don't **** up or slow play any of them.


Funny thing is, my whole class is all in state.
 
Any chance Bruce and Scalett persuade Bosa to tagging along? Would be awesome, but he probably ends up playing with his big bro.
 
Donovan Thompson is #2 from central right? He was making plays consistently vs Hoover

Yup. He's a bit shorter than 6'0" actually. Numbers do get inflated. About 5'11" actually. But the kid can ball. Central coach compares him to Sean Spence. Has great instincts and a knack for the ball.

Believe someone here said before that Blustein says Thompson best defensive player in south florida for 2016.

Also Rashan Gary plays at Paramus...Golden needs to dig into his NJ roots to pull him from there. Big time DT. Also, what the word on Chidi? Is he playing in Georgia now?

Doubt it. The Bosas are to OSU like the Chickillos are to Miami.

And it won't be all that bad. It's not like we are striking out on him when we really don't have a true chance for him to begin with.

Plus. We will get ours at DE regardless. We would really have to **** up to not get at least Bethel, Jackson, Burns and Thompson(DE/DT)

Bethel - Cane Legacy

Burns - Close relationship with Scarlett and Bruce from when all 3 were at USchool. And was dying for his Miami offer for some time and teammate of Dredrick Snelson.

Jackson - Gulliver pipeline, we really have to **** up to **** this one up with his old coach Baez here. And Mullins committed and Wright to follow suit and Burns in 2017.

Thompson - Came out and said he would commit on spot with a Miami offer. Idk what's the hold up...



All four are 4 stars right now on respective sites if I'm correct.

Burns and Jackson have the athleticism and size to end up 5 star players actually.


Their is Malik Barrow too from Tampa but he will probably end up at Michigan State or Ohio State. He really likes Urban as a coach.



Manuel as I said earlier. We gotta go head to head with FSU for him.

I doubt we land Gary. Two big studs in NJ on the radar. Kareem Walker(RB) and Rashan Gary(DT). But the consensus is Bama for those two. And any shot at Walker was shot down when Kiy Hester his old teammate left Miami as well as any chance at Kiy Hester brother Quayshon Alexander(DE)

As for Chidi. I think FSU for him or an SEC school. He came back to Florida, he is still playing at Champagnat. Champagnat high school just doesn't go well with Miami. And he is very close and good friends with current 2015 FSU OL commit Abdul Bello. Believe both are from same tribe. Maybe Sunny Odogwu could help here. But I don't see us landing Chidi.

Only other OL targets I like so far that I know of. Parker Boudreaux, Keldrick Cesar, Jordan Johnson, Stewart Reese.

And then you got Greg Little the #1 OL in 2016 from Texas who we probably have no shot at.

Also Calvin's younger brother Cavin. Who's a lock to go wherever big brother goes. I'm still fantasizing that Calvin, SBB, and Hoggins (if these idiots ever offer) end up here. It is basically mission impossible, but would be epic nonetheless.

Basically. Same sentiments here. Cavin has a lot of grade issues as well. But yeah, he will follow his brother and SBB though. That's a given. Cavin could play RB or WR, it's still not set in stone what future position. Been playing a lot of WR this year though.

I don't see us getting 2 true RBs in 2016. We are going to have Edwards, Yearby, Scarlett, Williams, and Walton next yr, assuming Duke leaves, which he should. We only need 1 true RB (McIntosh) and a hybrid guy that could play RB/WR/DB...
 
I'll say it again though, This 2016 WR class is the exact reason I only want 2-3 MAX wr's in this 2015 class. I only really want Chatman from this class. I fully expect to get D Mullins, S Bruce, D Snelson, A Richards, and (hopefully) B Victor; and obviously we could get up to 7 that are ALL better than these 2015 guys.
