Four-star running back Daniel Carter, who is currently 5’11’’ 207 pounds, has a loaded list of offers that includes school like: Miami, Ohio State, Michigan, Auburn, Georgia, and LSU. Carter, along with countless other highly rated Florida recruits, made his way down to Coral Gables for an unofficial visit last Saturday. All of the prospects gathered together on Greentree to watch Miami’s first Saturday practice of spring football.
“The intensity was great. It reminds me of our practice (at Aquinas)," Carter said. "They are getting after it every day and competing with each other, I liked it.”
Carter was impressed by the campus and the new indoor facility currently being built down in Coral Gables. Coach Richt has made the IPF a selling point for recruits.
“Everything was nice, it’s beautiful there,” Carter said describing his trip down to Miami.
The four star running back really liked what he saw from the team as a whole, but especially from what he saw out of Coach Brown and the running backs.
“Yes I can see myself there," Carter said. "Coach Thomas Brown talked about how he wants his running backs to be dogs and I think I can fit right in that group.”
Carter also gave us his take on the QB battle currently brewing down in Miami.
“The starting QB (Rosier) was great yesterday leading the offense.”
After practice, Carter and the other recruits had a meal and got to spend time with their respective position coaches.
While Carter really enjoyed his Miami visit, he plans to take many more visits throughout the process.
“I want to try to visit most of the schools that offered me," Carter said.
Since St. Thomas does not allow their students to graduate early, Carter also noted that he is no hurry at all to make a decision. He does not know where he will be taking his official visits next season and really just wants to take his time and make the right decision.
“I want to enjoy the process," Carter said.
Miami already has a commitment from three-star running back Marcus Crowley, but they are looking to take more running backs this class. This could be a year that Miami takes more than two running backs, especially when you count in guys like Kenny McIntosh and Mark-Anthony Richards, who are listed as running backs but may play on the defensive side of the ball in college.
