On Kelley Wiley, Jr….

Thursday at 10:06 AM 2 min read

This morning, LB recruit Kellen Wiley (Seffner) announced he is not visiting Miami this weekend.

I’m told this is NOT a drop situation. The staff really likes Kellen Wiley.

Miami has decided to move this weekend’s visitors (including Mykah Newton and Malachi Toney) to after signing day.

There are a couple reasons for this. First, these players have playoff games for their high school teams tomorrow. So it would have been a shortened, lower-quality visit.

Second, and most importantly, the team is in lockdown mode as it pushes towards its goal of an ACC Championship. There are usually a lot of recruits in the building on Sunday unofficials. That’s not happening this week. Everyone is completely locked in on getting ready for the home stretch.

Recruiting will continue, obviously, and remains paramount. But the decision was made to avoid visits during such a key time for the program.

The unfortunate part with Wiley is that, unlike Newton and Toney, he isn’t a commit. So the timing is off. But again, this decision applies to every recruit set to visit and is being made for the sole purpose of winning on Saturday, winning next week, and accomplishing the team’s goals for the season.

A coach who was hired to recruit, to actually recruit and not use “needing to focus on winning” as an excuse to push back visits. As I said Mario can’t draw up any play except inside zone. And he cant draw up a single defensive play. So what’s he focusing on? He spending all week writing his ra ra go team pregame speech?

Well, stupid is as stupid does holds for game, set , & match once again...

Hey I hear ya… a reminder that we have serious issues with our defensive secondary and those boys need to figure it out or we’re talking offseason moves and a mid tier bowl instead of ACCCG and playoffs

Coaches need to focus on coaching this team on the field and the off the field analysts/support group needs to earn their keep during these next few weeks

I agree I am just hoping we get to a point where we don’t have to against a team like this

No lies I can't even calling them fans because of the punt of absurd hate they spew. They act as if they know what goes on inside the Miami football program as if they witness it first hand it's sad and one of the signs of a delusional mind.

I really have come to the conclusion a good chunk of these dudes ain't even um fans. They're simply miserable dudes stuck in they own life...

You're probably old enough to remember a 1983 movie called All The Right Moves with Tom Cruise about a high school football team in a working class community. There was this local fan, Bosko, who trashed the head coach's house after a key loss. The head coach thinks it's Cruise's character who did it, let's the recruiters know, so they all pull their scholarship offers. Bosko refuses to tell the truth even though he knows he is killing the kid's dream of going to college.

A lot of our CIS Canes fans are Boskos.

Facts if he wanna play for them bums then so be it. Beat they *** again next year with him on the sideline

With all the love attention this staff has shown with all the progress this season has shown I don’t wanna hear a cancelled visit is the reason a kid now wants to play for the trash program up north. We always see kids make excuses. Florida sucks

Lol at anyone that criticizes any facet of the team being labeled not a fan. That **** is so weak.

Trolls bots and or sad *** men bruh. Name me a coach that could get us to national title contention after 15 years of mediocrity in three years. I'm not a Mario stan he is flawed but everyone is. We are on the right track. We are one win away from playing for a conference title in a conference we have been in for 20 years. Ultimately man when i think about it social media in general is one of the reasons I hate people.

I don't know the movie but that sounds pretty accurate
