On Kelley Wiley, Jr….

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.

All right @Kellen Sr, welcome to the U and congrats to your son! Are you willing to share anything about what Mario has told you about the defense going forward? Guessing the family liked what they heard.

This! I agree 1 Million Percent! Lane is so overrated! All dat MF is is a good OC

Exactly I will never understand this fanbase love fest with Lane Kiffin guy has folded everywhere he's been but for some reason they want him here. We'd be in this same exact position if he was our coach just with worse recruiting

Anyone that bashed Sr is a fool. I’ll take 6-4 230 over 5-10 all day! Go get Alford. So far the only real miss is Stubbs.

Will be interesting to look back on how that plays out

Did not see this one coming. Had actually ruled it out and didn't want to torture myself watching his film.

Love it.

Welcome @Kellen Sr - you seem like an excellent father and doing great for your kids. Hope Jr got the same level head on his shoulders. Hope you continue to post on the boards!
