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.

he just talking . he is one of those type ppl. we have great character over here and we aren't on that mess. that's why we haven't committed and decommited over and over like some other ppl. uncommitted until he decides to commit. we one woman kinda ppl. lol

I got academic scholarship offers from 10+ schools for aerospace engineering… Michigan, USC, UF, etc.

Decided on a full ride to Miami, but visited every school to enjoy the process. Enjoy the special visits but Miami was the best decision I’ve made.

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.

or bozos!

Not to sound like my gramps with the back in my days comments, but legit I think social media has taken a huge role in destroying modern day society. Honestly our best hope was new years 1999 and the belief for some that all technology was gonna go back to the stone age.

I was called a ******* idiot just yesterday for saying that kid and pops are trying to get the biggest bag possible. They aren’t getting strung along by any one program, they are in fact the ones doing the stringing along…

They didn't lie to you.

**** yeah he's flawed. But like you say, who isn't. I don't mind some of the complaints. We all should be able to have SEMI intelligent dialogue. What I mind is all the a people who speak in absolutes that don't know **** about what's ever gone on with our program. Inside or out. All the people who said Mario is no good & kiffin is a top coach, Kelly is a top coach... At no point in time are they capable of coming up with a sound argument to support the nonsense. But that's just what it is. Year after year these corches **** the bed and have PROVEN to not be willing to adapt. Mario has proven he'll adapt. He just wants to win. Won't even get into the constant back and forth with both coordinators. Pretty sure I on here we simply want what we don't have. I even read a comment earlier today where some dude was talkin about upgrades at DC & the ****** guy legit said we should go after alfraud golden... It makes anyone with a brain just constantly stay frustrated and go home and choke a prostitute or something. Start a random bar fight maybe... ***** legit sad you can't have a supposed group of canes fans simply enjoying the reality of a 10-1 season together. Is there negatives? **** YES THERE IS!!! But there's far more positive. No need to ignore one or the other to simply enjoy the season. Hate to see what ***** gonna look like on here next week...

for 20 years I have heard our fans say they want a great recruiter. we finally get a guy who's obsessed with recruiting and who saban has acknowledged is a great recruiter and now they want something else.

Btw, after today I dont want to hear Kiffen's name come up again. this fetish some people on here have with this guy is a joke. Hes a 3-4 loss a year coach who uses the portal because he's too lazy to recruit. he's the same guy who you to hide in florida fishing when saban thought he was out recruiting.

I see what you did there Sr lol! One woman kind of people!

we do have solid character on here. But we HATE Florida! We hate what their assistant AD did to our players after the game, we 100% can’t stand everything about them! I’m sure you understand some fools will not be happy if your son ends up anywhere but here. But 98% of us will wish it was anyone but UF. I can speak for myself in saying I want what is best for your son and family.
