2014 LB Dillon Bates from Ponte Vedra High School is already one of the top players in the country for his position and holds offers from the likes of Notre Dame, Ohio State, Florida, and Tennessee. He also has a Miami offer and was on campus today for junior day.
"My favorite part of the day was walking around the campus with the coaches and seeing the facilities."
Was there anything that he learned about Miami that he didn't know before?
"I didn't really know how much of a prestigious academic school Miami was."
Another thing that stood out to Bates was the atmosphere amongst the team.
"I was really surprised about Miami and how much of a family feel it has and how welcoming the coaches and staff are. This was a really great trip."
The linebacker said he spoke with Coach Barrow, Coach Carroll, and Coach Golden today.
