Davenport, FL — The state of Florida is particularly loaded with offensive linemen in the 2018 class. William Barnes and Ed Montilus visited Miami last weekend anf there’s another guard who’s making his way down to Coral Gables this weekend — Cleveland Reed.

“I don’t know that much about Miami because I've never been down to the campus,” Reed said. “I’m visiting this weekend for the Duke game, so my perception of Miami is going to change.”

Reed is visiting Miami for the first time this weekend, while the 6-4, 295 pound offensive guard has visited Florida multiple times. What is he looking to get out of his first visit to Coral Gables?

“My mom is coming with me,” Reed said. “I just want to feel the atmosphere, I want to see the school, how the students interact with the school and stuff."

But since Reed has never visited Miami’s campus, are the Hurricanes still in contention for the #8 OG in the nation?

“Miami for sure has a chance because I want to go to a school where they produce offensive linemen and somewhere I can play early.”

He also likes the Canes chances on the basketball court Saturday.

“I think Miami’s going to beat Duke.”

Reed has basically every offer in the nation, but what schools are recruiting him the hardest

“North Carolina, Ohio St. Florida and Miami,” Reed said. “Ohio St. and Florida are recruiting me harder.”

“I’ve visited Florida a lot,” Reed said. “Every time I visit Florida it feels like home, so I always have a good feel and a good vibe around the program.”

“I only feel this way because I’ve been there so many times. If I visit Miami more i could feel that same way, we just have to see.”

Ohio State -

“I like how they build a relationship,” Reed said. “They don’t even talk to me about football, it’s mostly about school and keeping my grades up.”

Would be a major pickup if we can land him. Especially if Donaldson ends up at RT, a guy like Reed or Scaife could start in 2018. We desperately need more quality Guards

Urban has just recruited him harder along with the offensive line coach. Miami has several things in our favor including proximity, a loyal coach, academics(specifically the small classes), and the traditin the U brings.

Welcome to the board. Does it impact his decision at all when be sees the type of running backs we have committed and on deck? Just wondering if that stuff really matters to recruits or not really.

It does impact his decision and he we have a big family he has been through more than the average Joe. If a couple recruits show him love it will impact him if they loyal. Loyalty is the biggest key for him

welcome sir.

"The latest is Miami leads he almost popped today. Most important is Miami is his mothers favorite school they blew her out the water! Im bringing him and her back for a spring practice, soring game and paradise could commit any time between tonight and one of those visits."

"It was way better than any UF visit i took woth him or his mom."
